Crossbow Isle - Crossroads Part 1 Whilst Yaara Heru en' Thaurer was pleased with his achievements and with the mock chase of Torgos/Tokolosh he had vented some steam of his wrath, the defenders of the Bright Side counselled in Yamen' Grotha Naugrim, the realm of the Pjodroerir about the war that was inevitably drawing closer with every passing hour. It had become all too clear that the Ruler of the Worlds Below had to act now to protect his interests that he had gained about four thousand odd years ago. How this world would be if he succeeded and how it could turn out if he failed himself? Questions that burned in the minds of many and the answers were all too clear. Nothing could be more devastating or elating then the controversial developments that depended on the fickle fate of the future. As Yaara Heru en' Thaurer made his first move, he almost had won the war without as much as a battle but thanks to the inventiveness of the Trinity, it could be defused and had honed the senses of all those who were targeted in this war that this time would affect anyone on Crossbow Isle and subsequently this world. However, as hoped, Yaara Heru en' Thaurer became not aware of the outcome of his move and launched a second attack to probe if the White Power Beings were still around. Thanks to Rasmus's inventive move that had literally 'squished' his elite troops ere they became aware what was happening, Yaara Heru en' Thaurer snapped out of his mind and spread his attacks to all his targets from Yamen' Grotha Naugrim to Caradoc Castle and down to Willowbee. The fighting was severe and especially one move had tested everyone to the brink of mental endurance and had almost succeeded. Never-ending streams of the most vicious creatures were vomited from the worlds below and if not for the much unexpected appearance of allies where no one had hoped to find any, Yaara Heru en' Thaurer would have drowned the world above with the bodies of his slain troops, but even that assault was ended in a way that the Ruler of the Worlds Below had surely not had in his reckoning. Comprehending now that he had to engage different tactics, he deployed his own cruel invention onto the worlds above, which would surely have succeeded if not for the intervention of the beings behind the Palantir and instead of eradicating all life on Crossbow Isle as planned; it turned out to be the beginning of his own downfall. Meanwhile, the forces he had deployed to eradicate the elves and people on Ai Seler' en' Tolea'Fuin began to attack the island quite unconventionally by paving the way for their successors with their own mutilated bodies. Now Crossbow Isle was burning on all corners and Yaara Heru en' Thaurer's victory seemed to be as inevitable as the entire war had been. However, sometimes, it is the small things that can lead to defeat and even Yaara Heru en' Thaurer had to learn that overconfidence often turns out to be the stumble stone for arrogant minds.
