The 2nd Battle of Cabbagefall

Post by Continuator »

Overview

The 2nd Battle of Cabbagefall began on Hyre the 24th of Qinamu at 23:13 hours with a surprise attack launched by the Fleur de Lys-Longships Guard against Cabbagefall, the residence and sanctuary of Lord Adam, the Steward appointed by Aurangzeb, whose forces continued to resist an Elwynnese advance towards the capital, Shirekeep, via Suthergold and Demonsfall.

As a plague of daemons continued to wreak havoc on the Elwynnese siege lines and the suburbs outside the Reynardine Walls, the attack on Lord Adam by Elwynnese special forces was a desperate attempt to end the human component of the war and to allow the for the restoration of order in the capital, which had been abandoned by the pretender, Marcus Myksos, weeks earlier.

The assault on Cabbagefall, having been successfully concluded when the Shirekeep Garrison defected to Noor's cause and joined the Elwynnese attack, had been followed up with extensive controls and searches throughout the city with the intention of securing the arrest and apprehension of those involved in the atrocities of the Oustfest Massacre and Goldshire’s civil war, so that they might be brought to justice.

On the night of the 19th of Silnuai, an hour before midnight, the Scholae legions of the Imperial Constabulary, overseeing the occupation of Cabbagefall, had successfully located Lord Adam. He, along with his retinue, were hiding in the little-known catacombs underneath the city. When Adam had taken over Cabbagefall, he had ensured that there were secret bunkers within the catacombs, in case of them needing to be used. As history was to show, Adam needed them.

Catacomb 27, or as Adam and his retinue had named it, Kaiser Marcus Hall, housed Adam, his wife, and a handful of officials, all protected and served by Adam’s loyal men in the Jaysh al-Sathrati.

As one of the IC spies managed to enter the catacomb clandestinely, hiding in some small cell, hoping to record some conversation or details so that they could storm the complex, he overheard a silent conversation between two soldiers.

“Can he please stop treating us as slaves?”

“That’s not surprising… I was shocked when he first called us that, now I’m used to it. Still hate it though. Noor was better… “

The other one went explaining how he last night realised that Adam, being stressed, needed sexual relief and had commanded the only female soldier to “relieve” him. Apparently, from the story, today she was unable to walk.

“Fuck, he’s evil... If Noor’s forces enter… I’ll wave the white flag.”

“Hah… me too.”

The spy hurried to communicate to the IC HQ the news. Resistance might not be as hard as previously thought. Morale, after all, was low.

At the early hours of the 20th of Silnuai, the IC forces successfully entered the complex with little resistance. There were no casualties, and all were arrested. All in all, 28 arrests were made, and all of them were taken to Shirekeep for further processing.
