The Battle Of Noctzehrerberg Abbey Part 2

 Here is part 2 of The Battle Of Noctzehrerberg Abbey...

Aly reaches the altar and a glow surrounds the area. Aly's hair stands on end and a rising choral crescendo is heard in the air. The altar has symbols drawn in fresh blood and scattered around it are the charred remains of the missing Gondorian task force. Does Aly search the altar further?

Aly: I feel like someone just stepped on my grave. *sees a message in blood on the altar* It says "betray". What does that mean?

Aly is surrounded by Ghosts.

Aly: I got an arrow for each of you! You want some? Wont someone come save us from this ghostly tidal wave?

Back at the Abbey, Sister Trinity continues to study the book while Blossom and Istriya blast the Ghosts. The Ghosts find it difficult to attack and hit them as they are on high ground.

Zorelle: Ok lets help clear the ground floor of the Abbey! Alice... smash!

And Mad Alice charges into the Ghosts using her Berserk Charge ability. And as the Abbey is finally secured, Sister Trinity finishes reading the incantations in the book and a glimmer passes from the sky down to the ground, signalling that some ancient spell has been nullified. The ground rumbles as an army of the dead rises not only here, but everywhere in Middle Earth. A Night Haunt Apocalypse has been triggered. Its Ghoul-A-Go-Go across the lands! Sister Trinity gives a villainous laugh.

Zorelle: No! Villainous laugh? Traitor! *points at Sister Trinity* What next a villainous monologue?

Sister Trinity: There are corruptions in the Gondorian Senate, you should know the truth as I have.

Zorelle: The truth?

Sister Trinity: The truth. What if I told you that the Republic is now under the control of a Dark Lord of the Sith?

Zorelle:: No, that's not possible! The High Council of the White Tower would be aware it!

Sister Trinity: The Dark Side of the Force has clouded their vision, my friend. Hundreds of senators are now under the influence of an Outer Mythos God called Nyarlathotep the Crawling Chaos.

Zorelle:: I dont believe you.

Sister Trinity: The Steward of Gondor was once in league with the King in Yellow but was betrayed in the war for Eriador. He came to me for help; he told me everything. You must join me, and together we will destroy the Mythos!

Zorelle:: I will never join you.

Sister Trinity: It may be difficult to secure your release.

An Easterling Death Knight and skeletons march out of the woods towards the Abbey.

Easterling Death Knight: You dogs move! You miserable bags of bones! Pick yourselves up and sally fo... sally forth.

Then a deep roar and a strange crooning is heard. Cosmo the many-eyed Screamer of Tzeentch (and Aly's missing pet) comes into view along with Truffles the Tree-Kin Elder (and Blossom the Dryad's last remaining orchard companion) Aly and Blossom cheer for joy as they see them arrive.

Truffles the Tree-Kin Elder: Hoom hrum! Today is a good day to learn to be hasty! *nods at Cosmo* Thanks for finding me and leading me here. Somehow you knew our help was needed. Come, strange chaos creature friend! Lets save all our other friends! I promised to keep them safe and that is what we will do!~

Cosmo's lightning fast movemnt rate brings him right to his master in a flash.

Aly: Cosmo! I knew it! You came back to me. *jumps atop her pet* Stop making a maniac out of me! Still, Im glad you are here! Now lets pepper these enemies with arrows and your whip lash tail!

But Truffles is slow and the skeletons gang up on him while Blossom the Dryad watches in horror. Zorelle and Alice are not close enough to help.

Truffles the Tree-Kin Elder: I will tank you all to save my friends!

As Istriya prepares to attack the traitorous Sister Trinity she teleportkeys away with the body of the fallen Pomona. While Blossom the Dryad climbs down from the Abbey and runs toward the Tree-Kin Elder.

Sister Trinity: We may meet again, witch. Farewell!

Istriya uses her Chain Lightning spell to fry a bunch of skellies, but not before Truffles in chopped down. Blossom gets to the fallen tree, reaches down, takes something from Truffles and hides it away. Then she blasts more skeletons with her spells.

Suddenly, another group of villains appear. And they look serious. Very serious. At the last minute, Azrogorgon the Demon Lord of Beasts gets a telepathic message.

Azrogorgon: Sorry boys, I gotta take this. But... *points at the heroes* Slay them! Leave none alive!

Toby the Necromancer: Sure thing, Boss! We got this.

Meanwhile...

Zorelle: Ok, mission objectives have changed. The White Tower must learn about the events that took place here! At least one of us has to escape! Now... lets go!
