Editing Rebirth (campaign scenario)

{{TEheader}}

{{TErow| 1 |Day 1|The courage of King Targor will be remembered for a long time.  Alone, he went before the insane Ancestor, Vorr, and told him that his people no longer worship him.  Targor, of course, hasn't returned and is presumed dead.  His people have accepted my command and willingly join the fight against the Necromancers, who continue their campaign to destroy the World Tree despite the fact that Vorr has abandoned them now.}}

{{TErow| 4 |Day 4|Fortunately, we were able to get to this section of the World Tree before the Necromancers could burn it.  Some sections have been scorched beyond repair, and there are rumors that the tunnels below these are even worse.  I shudder to think of the extent of the damage they have done already - all because of my stupidity.<p>I can only hope that the World Tree can heal itself after I've destroyed these cursed Necromancers.}}

{{TErow| 7 |Day 7|The Elven Druid, Nilidon, claims that a powerful combination artifact used to be down in these tunnels.  It's called the Statue of Legion, and attracts more troops to your Stronghold.  One of the advantages the Necromancers have always had over me has been their ability to recruit extra troops from those killed in battle.  With the Statue, perhaps I can match them.<p>Unfortunately, the Statue is no longer where it should be, and there is evidence that someone tore it to pieces recently.  Only the Legs of Legion remain in the spot where the Statue once stood, guarded by skeletons.<p>So, I ordered my scouts to search for the other pieces of the Statue of Legion and report back to me as quickly as possible.}}

{{TErow| 12 |Day 12|My scouts have sent their reports about the locations of three of the four missing pieces of the Statue of Legion.<p>The Loins of Legion have been spotted to the distant northeast, not too far from a Library of Enlightenment.<p>The Torso of Legion is to the north and west of our towns, near a School of Magic and a School of War, but Wraiths attacked my scout before he could reach it.<p>And the Arms of Legion are located in a small cavern to the east.  I know it well.  Not only do Ghost Dragons haunt the tunnel to this cave, but the Arms are protected by Vampires as well.}}

{{TErow| 18 |Day 18|And finally, the Head of Legion has been discovered to the southwest, along with the only known Gold Mine in the area - an important find well worth the wait.<p>As Nilidon explains, once I have all five pieces in my possession I should give them to a Hero who can remain inside one of my Strongholds, especially overnight at the end of each week.  Enough troops should be attracted to the spot that I'll have no problem defeating the Necromancers.}}

{{TErow| 23 |Day 23|The Elf, Nilidon, saved the lives of me and my men today.<p>We came across a small waterfall trickling from the ceiling into a large, cool pool.  Our water supplies was already low and it was going to be several days before we got anything from the surface, so I ordered the men to drink their fill, water the horses, and collect some water for the road.<p>Thank the Ancestors for Nilidon's Druid skills!  The Elf's bond with nature must've alerted him, for Nilidon suddenly jumped forward as the first horse began to drink.  He grabbed the creature's mane and dragged it away, warning us all that the water was poisoned.<p>An hour later, the horse died, screaming horribly until I put it out of its misery.  Nilidon found the source of the poison, a chest sunk in the shallow water.<p>"I would wager this box once belonged to the Necromancers," Nilidon said as he pointed it out.<p>"Treacherous cowards!" I cursed.  Then I shook Nilidon's hand and said, "Thank you."}}

{{TErow| 28 |Day 28|Some misplaced patriotism inspire a group of younger Goblins to mark up the walls of the tunnels leading to the lower levels.  Their heart might be in the right place, but if you're going to spread some graffitti at least know how to spell correctly.<p>"BRABARIANZ RULE, DED GUYZ DRULE!" it read.<p>They wanted to fly our banner over the Subterranean Gate, but couldn't find any proper flags so they improvised.  The pink undergarments of an Ogress were used instead.}}

{{TErow| 33 |Day 33|I ordered the walls the Goblin's vandalized to be cleaned, but apparently I was too late.<p>I received a letter today from the Necromancers.  Its contents were the usual demand for my unconditional surrender, but my attention was attracted by who it was addressed to.  It began:<p>"To the Bra-Barian Queen..."<p>Needless to say, the Goblins responsible for this embarrassment have wisely been staying far away from me.}}

{{TErow| 38 |Day 38|Today, I received a glimmer of hope that the World Tree will be able to recover from the damage Vorr and the Necromancers have done.<p>We heard the wailing of a pair of Wraiths in a nearby cavern and rode quickly toward them.  By the time we got there, however, we found them attacking a fawn who had been grazing at lonely looking patch of grass.  We were too late to save the deer, but I slaughtered the Undead creatures.  The way they kill just to snuff out the life in something always turns my stomach.<p>But as we climbed back onto our horses, I noticed a flicker of movement from the fawn.  Its legs twitched.  I would've dismissed it, except I noticed a faint glow surrounding the deer's wounds.  Right before my eyes, the gashes in its flesh closed up, and then the deer took a breath, clumsily climbed to its feet, and ran off.<p>I looked around at the tunnels surrounding me, and at that moment I finally understood the true power of the World Tree.}}

{{TErow| 45 |Day 45|We captured a Necromancer after a recent battle.  It didn't take long for my Ogre Captain, Grumba, to convince the man to talk.  The man couldn't provide any tactical information that I didn't already know about my enemy, but he did have one interesting piece of information.<p>Apparently, Vorr has abandoned the Necromancers.  They've called upon him for help, but Vorr hasn't answered.  The Necromancers continue their destruction of the World Tree in the hope that they can cause enough damage to kill it before I manage to defeat them.<p>So, for now I don't have to worry about Vorr.  Although I wasn't looking forward to battling the insane Ancestor, it bothers me that he gave up so easily.  What could he be up to now?}}
