Volume 5

[thrillofchase]

I am not a man who curses frequently. That being said, FUCKSome of you may remember that my people and I have been exiled from our homes by a being known only as the adversary. You may also remember that we believed we were safe in the world we had exiled ourselves in because the Adversary had no interest in it

A war, huh?

[thrillofchase]

I hate to use that word, especially since we'll all be trying to limit the fighting to one city street, but yes. I do suppose that's the best way of putting it.

[youresoshort]

Tell me.

How many other people are you with?

CRAP!! I lent the books to a friend, so I can't check.

[thrillofchase]

I've never really taken a headcount, but we have somewhere between 500 and 1000 people living in Fabletown with more... unhuman allies on the way from another location.

However, the number of trained individuals with combat experience is far less.

No worries!!

[youresoshort]

And the attacking force? How large are they?

[thrillofchase]

Unknown.

[youresoshort]

Fair enough.

How discreet do you need it to be?

[thrillofchase]

We have sorcerors focusing all their energies into ensuring that those who we can't allow to know anout the battle will be blissfully unaware of it, and lose any memory of what happened upon waking up the next day.

This allows us to fight all out if needed, but even magicians can't hide something the size of... say... a mushroom cloud.

[youresoshort]

Is that so? How interesting. I'm sure we'll be able to take care of it.

Without the mushroom cloud, of course.
