Enemy at the gates
At last, it seems the defiance of Man is to be shattered.
As Beowulf and the Prophet of Man struggle to hold the outlying provinces, a vast force of Fir Bolgs under the direction of the obese goddess Baalz and her Tuatha minions is assaulting the gates of the capital. The tower guards hurry to reinforce the splintering gates and rebuild the crumbling walls. The witches make their preparations, pondering the best use of the last baubles left to them for their highest magics. In the deepest recesses of the inner temple, the god Sluice dispassionately contemplates the end of his endeavours, and dreams of the future of the world.
