*Frantically, the Wolves, the Rangers, the Pirates and the Knights prepared for their journey across the sea. They had to travel light, and on foot, since the ships cargo would be filled with their weapons and there would be no room for mounts.*

*Racing to the meeting point in Skara Brae, they gathered at the docks to decide their next course of action. A look at the map told them all they needed to know.*

*The group, too large to use a single gate, cast several and moved to the shores of Moonglow where they could leave from the western coast and travel a shorter distance by water. The seas were rough, and some of the less battle hardened complained of stomache upsets.*

"Bah! Landlubbers be defiling our seas!" Declared Captain Yellowfoot as he expertly maneuvered his ship towards Nu'jelm. DanGarion had studied maps of the area and chosen the best strategic entry spot into the city. Now Yellowfoot led the floatilla to their destination.*

*Hours later, soaked by the spray of salt water, all but the Pirates on rubber legs glad to see land again, they reached the sandy beaches of Nu'jelm. Focused on their mission to secure the palace, few took the time to notice the beauty of the area. Instead, the seagulls were drowned out by the division commanders barking out their orders and the sounds of weapons being drawn from their scabbords. As one, the horde marched onward to the palace. Once inside, the troops scrambled for the best positions, and waited...*

*From the direction of the docks, the sounds of many heavy footsteps could be heard approaching...*

"Just as I expected the Orcs would use the docks. I'm glad my decision to use the far cove near the cemetary was right."

*As the waves crashed upon the beach the wolves exited their ships moving quickly to assist other wolves exiting other ships.*

*As the wolves approached the Nujel'm Palace, they were joined by the Pirates of the Drunken Maiden, and the Rangers of Skara Brae!*

*The group quickly opens the doors to the palace. As they close and barricade the door behind them, captains and officers start barking orders to the other troops.*

"PLACE THE ARCHERS HERE!"

"MAGES MAKE SURE YOU CAN HEAL THOSE WARRIORS ON THE FRONT LINES"

"I WANT TWO LINES OF WARRIORS, DON'T LET THEM PAST THAT DOOR!"

*Suddenly a rumble is felt at their feet. The enemies are getting close. Orcs, Drow, and Undead approach the palace at a slow and methodical pace.*

*Momentarialy an uncomfortable silence hit the palace.

*Arrows from Orc Archers bounced on the walls of the palace. Some discovering entry and wounding the allies.*

"Hold the line!!!"

*DanGarion barked at the warriors on the front line.*

"Stand your ground and advance when they are reloading!"

*Members of the Dark Alliance began to fall. As the Wolves, Rangers, and Pirates defended the palace it was discovered that some enemies had infiltrated the palace by other means.*

*Troops were quickly dispatched and the threat was elimated. And so was the threat on the palace... for now...*

*The wolves celebrated this vicotry with few casualties, but countless others perished. They only hope to be as victorious in the next battle.*
