45th session

After their little chat with Bane (exarch of the keeper), the Swords headed back to Drahar in order to set things up.

Freeday 20th Phebroar, Year 26
The Swords participate in setting up the army of Drahar, preparing to move it down to Devil's pass as soon as it's ready.

Torsday 3rd Mahrs, Year 26
During the day, Gnoguh suddenly receives a call from his roughnecks in Devil's Pass. They have spotted about 2000 gnolls coming up the pass - way too many for the roughnecks to have a realistic chance.

Knowing that it is impossible for backup to reach Devil's Pass, the Swords decide to go there by themselves, to make the difference.

A quick shadowwalk later, and the Swords find themselves in Devil's Pass, barricaded in the makeshift fort, facing 2000 gnolls. Relentlessly the gnolls charge the walls of the fort, getting slaughtered by the hundreds. But slowly and surely, one roughneck after the other falls dead, with noone to replace him. At the very end, the gnolls finally broke through the defenses, and it became a every-man-for-himself-battle - something at which the Swords proved better than the gnolls. They had won the battle, but less than 30 roughnecks were alive.

Tirsday 8th Mahrs, Year 26
The Army of Drahar arrive to the pass, while the gnolls approach from the south.

Torsday 10th Mahrs, Year 26
While most of the focus is on the 50.000 army of gnolls, drows and demons approaching from the south, suddenly an airship is spotted hiding amongst the clouds. The Swords jump on some griffons and fly up to the airship which turns out to be full of drows and a red dragon. As the swords engage, the drows drop the controls of the airship and it starts plummeting towards the ground. Luckily for the Swords, they manage to deal with the drows before the airship hits the ground.
