Default Re: Machaka

Our scouts report a truly epic battle to our south. The forces of the spider riders march, drawn up in front of their false god to relieve the siege of their capital. A much larger Mictlan host encamped there marshals to meet them, though over half their number are all but naked slaves. But what is this? Apparently the large flock of turkeys accompanying Mictlan are not food stock, but sorcerers! They quickly form a huge communion while the fire priests enchant the archers with fire aether.

The initial volley of burning arrows inflict significant casualties in the weak, human host from Matchaka their feeble bodies charring from the mild fire. Nonplussed, the spider riders respond in kind and clouds of spinning blades fell among the loin cloth clad Mictlans as they also felt the sting of weak flesh being cleansed by the flame of burning arrows. The huge, terrible spiders charged forward towards ranks of trembling slaves. As the heavily blessed jaguar warriors ran towards their ominous jaws, the turkey communion finished its power ups, and the fire priests unleashed a pleasing warmth from the skies charring many a spider.

The spiders fell upon the Mictlan infantry with such terrible hunger that even the mighty Jaguar Warriors were seen to tremble as molten rocks rained down among the slaves. This was short lived however as the turkey communion began to rain much, much larger burning rocks from the heavens all among the Matchaka sorcerers, sending bodies flying hundreds of feet into the air. Boulder after boulder fell from the sky and rivers of fire poured down as unbelievable punishment was meted out to the spider riders. It seemed that this would be a fairly one sided battle as the Matchaka forces quickly dwindled. Then Fortu finished his battle enchantments and strode forward.

The mighty Scorpion King bellowed his fury and charged down the battlefield. Not a mortal present did not tremble as this terrifying godling barreled into the fray, surrounded by a burning ring and regenerating any wound to make it through his thick carapace. He drove into the Mictlan forces, heedless of the giant rocks falling from the sky, any one of which would have squished even his mighty form like the half bug he was. The Mictlan slaves had no stomach for this nightmare turned flesh and broke, leaving naught but archers between this burning manifestation of vengeance and the Mictlan mages who were now mostly too exhausted to cast spells.

Then, what is this? Tonatiuh, the prophet of Mictlan invoked a mighty Word of Power and all present watched in amazement as a star from the sky slowly grew into a burning, astral boulder twenty feet in diameter that drove straight from heaven into the paralyzed Fortu’s chest, destroying all trace of him.

Seeing the Matchaka army devastated, Baalz The Everburning, voice of the true god has decreed the time of the spider riders at an end, and hereby withdraws acknowledgment of them as a nation. Our forces move to annex the now unclaimed territories to our south. Mictlan has earned the right to spoils of war, and may claim what territories they may, but we advise them to respect the border we will shortly share. We hereby cede the underwater provinces formerly belonging to Matchaka to our starspawn neighbors in a gesture of goodwill, we will respect our shores as a boundary between our peoples that we may live in peace.

So speaks Baalz, The Everburning
