[RPG] [BT][Rio] Just A Duke's Luck

[Alex Davies]

Gorch listened to the announcement made to all the citizens of Riombara as 
it was cried by the heralds on the streets of Athol.

"We will not be defeated, no matter how strong our enemy. The darkness has 
never been able to stand when confronted with the Light carried by warriors 
of true heart! Let us shine our Light on the heart of the darkness, and 
banish it back whence it came!" the crier cried (as you would expect a crier 
to do, after all).

"Stuff and nonsense," Gorch muttered. "It's all very well surviving, but 
that's my bleeding city and I'll be damned if I let the undead overrun 
that."

Gorch stalked off into the government district of the city and dispatched 
his men to do some civil work to restore the production.

"And so we survived before, against shambling hordes... and now we have a 
so-called Necromancer and an organised horde of Greater Undead."

Gorch rounded a corner and entered an estate kept for refitting nobles., 
shutting the door on the doomsayers that were already moaning to the tune of 
"repent, ye sinners".

"When taxes come in, we'll ride for Grehk, and then reinforce the garrison." 
Gorch muttered to reassure himself. "But I spent weeks in that city without 
even a whisper of undead!"

Clarity is the essence of beauty, mystery the essence of desire.
