It was the start of summer and the streets were packed. Banners fluttered above our heads as we marched through the windy roads of Andfore. The crowds had gathered to say farewell to the brave men who would defend them. The troops smiled and laughed as they said goodbye to their loved ones. The only men who were grim were veterans who rode with Artorius Rex, those who knew the true horror of war. Despite this The Maestro bore a large grin, it was important to keep up troops morale and let them have one last merry moment before the darkness that came with war. To think about how many of these wives would be widows and how many children would become fatherless after the battle is unbearable. I can only hope that the battle shall be swift and result in a heroic victory for Eolas. Yet not all things go to plan... A heroes farewell by Jed cameron, on Flickr A heroes farewell by Jed cameron, on Flickr A heroes farewell by Jed cameron, on Flickr You're probably sick of these builds by now but do not fear, the holiday has one more day remaining and nothing more will be posted for a while. Anyway this took longer than it should have despite all the angles. This was also a stretch of pieces which I seem to have a habit of doing :p oh well, may be time for my first bricklink order. This build will be slightly modified and then appear later in the saga. Not much else to say so hope you enjoy :D p.s Thanks Jacob Nion for your awesome Skavenport, A massive help when building this.

The island of Eolas had sprung into action. With the council confirming war against the drow, hundreds of men had been recruited, pulled out of their peaceful lives to defend their families. But for an army you need not only troops but weapons, food, ale, horses, ale , armour, ale and perhaps a little more ale. The Maestro was checking the training of his army, seeing that it would be ready soon. Troops listened eagerly to their instructors, attacking wooden dummy or sparring with others. Arrows flew from bows, aimed for the wooden target while their partners offer "positive" feedback. Smithy's lined the training ground, producing weapons and armour by the hour. The Maestro smiled grimly, they would be ready.

But anyway it was a fun build and I enjoyed building it after the complexity of Brofendurs Kitchen, which I still have to write a story for... If you think this build is too simple then you should see what I just finished. ANGLES ARE HARD!!!! :p The last saga chapter: The last straw The next saga chapter: A heroes farewell
