The survivors of Belhaam had been flying for days. Eighteen among them neither Alexi nor Crovax had been found afterwards. Some feared they were captured others thought they were dead. Tiny Tim had been leading the group but Darkmen seemed the real leader of them. ���� "So how far are we from Keld?" Darkmen asks. ���� "Well from this distance about two hours at most but I would say within the hour." Tiny Tim says. ���� "I can�t wait to see this Valdner guy, he must be pretty powerful to run this attack." Darkmen says. They continue to fly on until they see the lands of Keld come into view. Vast swamps cover most of the land, but some of the original mountain range remains. ���� "This place was once beautiful." A student to Darkmen�s right says. ���� "Mirshra you know this place?" Darkmen asks. ���� "I used to live here some of the time before I moved to Tolaria." Mirshra replies. Darkmen turns his attention to smoke coming from the east. ���� "That must be Valdner�s camp." Tiny Tim says and then turns his aesthir toward it. When the group lands soldiers in multiple kinds of armor confront them. An older man in his late thirties walks from a nearby tent. ���� "You must be from Belhaam, oh excuse me I forgot to introduce myself, I am Valdner." He says. ���� "How did you know we were coming?" Keilic says. ���� "Well when Alexi and Crovax got here they told me what happened at Belhaam." Valdner says. ���� "So where are Alexi and Crovax now?" Dakkon asks. ���� "They went to the phyrexian base to get your friend Urdrag, now enough with the questions you need your sleep so go get some rest its going to be a long day tomorrow." Valdner says and then goes back into his tent leaving the survivors in confusion. A mouse scurries past Crovax as he watches the entrance of the Phyrexian base. Two guards stand at the entrance, one with blades for arms the other with malice. ���� "Can�t you just planeswalk yourself in there?" Crovax asks. ���� "They have protected the base from planeswalking so we have to find are own way in." Alexi replies. ���� "Ok then I will take out the guards, you make your way in." Crovax says. ���� "To late already took care of the guards." Alexi says. Crovax looks at the guards again only to find them in pieces. ���� "Lets go then." Crovax says and then runs into the opening. Alexi runs behind him and follows him until they reach a fork. ���� "We will cover much more ground if we split up." Crovax says. Alexi agrees with him and he takes the left hallway while Crovax takes the right. Crovax walks down the corridor hearing screams as he passes other hallways. He jumps behind a statue as a group of phyrexians passes by narrowly missing being seen. When they can no longer be seen he steps out from behind the statue and continues his search. He turns down another corridor and sees a person face down on the floor. He runs to the fallen person, turns him over, and sees that it is Urdrag. ���� "I�ll have you out of this hell hole in a few seconds Urdrag." Crovax says. ���� "No you won�t." a voice calls from behind him. He turns around and sees a figure standing right behind him. ���� "Stratadon?" Crovax says right before he his hit in the head with the side of a sword knocking him into a deep sleep. Alexi had been walking down his corridor when he was confronted by twenty phyrexians. Two of the bigger phyrexians charged at Alexi with long pincers clacking together as they ran. One swung and almost tore off Alexi�s head while the other jabbed at his midsection. Alexi casted a quick spell and he watched as the claw swung past his head and into the other Phyrexian knocking its insides out the other side of its body. The lifeless corpse dragged the other creature down with it. Alexi spreads his arms a multicolored ball of flame forms in between his palms. He fires the flame ball, it ignites one of the Phyrexians, and then returns back striking another Phyrexian. Pretty soon all of the metallic creatures had been hit and were on fire. An alarm sounds and hundreds of phyrexians rush down the halls toward Alexi. Alexi casts a quick spell and the hall squeezes shut behind him. Another squad of phyrexians comes around the corner and Alexi fries them with a lightning blast. He continues to run until he exits the base. He slows and then comes to a stop at the edge of the swamp. ���� "Nethya, I know we are going to Keld, but where are we going?" Neo says. ���� "We are going to Valdner�s camp, there we will regroup with the other coalition armies and we will attack together in one final battle." Nethya says as she rides one of her lions. The large group continues on for another few hours until they had reached a large canyon. ���� "Right over that ridge lays the camp. If we keep this pace we will be at the camp by nightfall." Nethya calls out. ���� "Isn�t there a quicker way to get there?" Laser says. ���� "I�ll try but no promises." Nethya says. Eight huge forms begin to take shape near the tired group. Lush wings appear and the Pegasus� are completed. ���� "This is the best I can do at the moment. Some of you can take the griffins over but you must be already trained on how to control them." Nethya says. Nethya looks to her lion herd and they instantly disappear out of existence. She jumps onto the lead griffins back and takes off into the air. Wind tears through her hair whipping it around her head on a flurry. A tear comes to her eye as she remembers that she was the one who put Prophet in the red faction group. It was she who had signed her sister�s death. A small snake of smoke reaches into the sky informing Nethya that the camp was near. She slows until the rest of the group catches up with her. ���� "OK everyone that plume of smoke indicates that we are near the camp. Stay low and watch for phyrexians they can be anywhere." Nethya warns. Nethya steers her griffin towards the smoke flying low so that no onlookers could see her. She flies above the bubbling swamps dodging ghouls left and right. In the center of the swamp Nethya sees the glowing light of the cam. She flies until she sees people walking around and not phyrexians. The griffin soon lands and Nethya jumps off of its back where Valdner greets her. ���� "Nice to see you again Nethya." Valdner says. ���� "The same to you Valdner. Is this all who are left?" Nethya asks. ���� "All except Alexi who is on a rescue mission at the moment." Valdner says. ���� "When do we leave tomorrow?" Nethya asks. ���� "Dawn." Valdner says simply. A vortex opens in front of them and Alexi appears with a face of despair. ���� "What has happened? Where are Crovax and Urdrag?" Valdner quizzes Alexi. ���� "Crovax has been captured or killed. I do not know about Urdrag." Alexi says sadly. ���� "If they are still alive we will rescue them. If not we will revenge them." Valdner vows. ���� "Sir, one of the controlled humans has told us of a full out attack that is planned for tomorrow." A newt tells Gittoplo. ���� "Good. Contact Shadow, tell him get his group back here and also tell Reaper to get his batch of controllers ready for tomorrow." Gittoplo commands. With that the newt runs away to fetch his masters orders. Gittoplo strums his metallic fingers together making loud clicking sounds throughout the room. ���� "Soon we will take Dominaria and destroy the pathetic coalition." Gittoplo says and then begins to laugh maliciously.
