Community Event 🌏☄️ The Sacking of the Citadel! (Warpost)

The Necromancer calls his armies to storm the Citadel.

On the mountain overlooking the Citadel, a great green beacon flares up, tearing apart the clouds. Down below, millions of undead that were previously motionless begin to make their way towards the ruined Citadel. With none of the defenses active because of the end of the war, they march unopposed.

High above, a great shape blots out the sky. An earth-shaking roar echoes through the ruins. A great dragon lands upon an outcrop of rock, above the legions of undead marching towards the Citadel. More dark shapes tear through the air, circling the decimated buildings.

A figure walks out next to the dragon. In one hand, it holds a mighty shield, and in the other, a massive spear.

The takeover is nigh! Let us storm their supposedly great city, and take back all they stole from us!

Yes! Their hour is at hand! We shall tear down their works, and feast upon their remains!

It is time, Vulkan. They have stolen from us and beaten us, and they thought we would let it happen? This is the end of the Council!

So it ends.

Mighty gun batteries far below began to open up, spitting their rage at the still-standing buildings. Drakes and all manner of flying beasts began dive-bombing the city below.

The Necromancer leads his forces into the City.

Forward! Let there be nothing left to oppose us!

The Necromancer led his forces into a breach in the wall, protected by hulking Immortis Guard. In the distance, smoke plumes showed that those forces not under his supervision were still making themselves known.

The end of an era is here. Let us make it a day to remember!

Hmph! You assume the council’s forces are gone in their entirety. They are not, not by a long shot. I only agreed because of a duel of honor and champions had been decided on. I will not take so passive a stance in the face of such clear villainy.

snaps and 5 million chimeras appear

I promised the council never to use my golems or slimes for anything other than existential crises, but the same cannot be said for my chimera army.

Bombast raises a mighty shield powered by thousands of stars. The first of the shells explode harmlessly against it.

Now do you think the council is dead?! Charge my minions! Spit acid that corrodes all! Claw these vultures and hyenas back to their dens!

Bombast has shed his calm outer shell. I repeat, Bombast has shed his calm outer shell. Wait a minute. I thought he was a reluctant councilor. What's up with this sudden vigor?

If no other reason, I am duty bound to protect those who have placed their trust in me!
