Outlander
With the sun comes a new wave of soldiers. Hundred of soldiers bearing the insignia of a bird on their armor approach the gates. Captain Graff joins you at the gate.
"Owls, Condors, Eagles, Hawks- By the gods, it's all of the Raptors! They have returned to Hakin!"
A soldier at the head of the company bows to you.
"We have heard the reports about your victories over the goblins, and we can only assume that they will return. Years ago the Raptors abandoned this city because there was no one to lead it, but now things are different. However the political situation pans out, you are Hakin's leader now. The Raptors are yours to command."
You bow as well. "Captain I am honored-"
"Horsemaster!" you hear from the battlements. "Soldiers from the north and west approach. Elfanians and Lograns!"
You look to Captain Graff in disbelief.

Later, you sit at a planning table in disbelief. Three new armies are now at your command. Combined with the Horsemasters and the Maefians, you now have the most powerful army assembled in Hakin in decades. Yet it may not be enough. The goblins will return, it is only a matter of time, and you probably have only hours to prepare. As you try to come up with a plan, Graff enters the room with Lucia.
"My lord," he says. "What's next?"
You look at Graff and at Lucia and confidence swells in you again.
"General Graff," you respond. "Let's win a war."
