Story

The Blacklighter attackers began their assault on Rolling Hills by first establishing an altar to their god; Libila. Southwest of the Fort. Once complete they marched to a beach just east of Rolling Hills and launched their assault, unfortunately for the attackers the hills had eyes that night, as they encountered stiff resistance immediately from the defending army, which initially repelled the attackers back onto the beach then retreated back into the confines of the Fort.

The attackers quickly regrouped, assembling a catapult in record time. They launched another assault on the compound, this time electing to attack the gate with the catapult before it fell, then went to work on another gate which led into the cave complex below. After breaching that gate, they rushed through the splinters of wood and into the caves. There the defenders laid a subtle trap by leaving numerous locked chests which were empty, and the attackers starting picking the locks to get at what they thought was treasure. But it reality distracted them long enough for the defenders to regroup and launch a counter-attack within the caves.

It was a brutal fight in the complex, but the attackers ultimately were beaten back out of the caves and out of Rolling Hills. It wasn't long after that they were in full retreat and the defenders claimed victory.
