“The people of Karpathos, be warned for I bring nothing but nothing more than bad news! A small detachment of the persian fleet has split apart and is now too close to our island. There is nothing else around our island so we know now that they plan to attack our land, our home! Each citizen is called to war, both commoner and noblemen alike are required to bring a weapon and shield and meet at the Acropolis for further orders! I suggest no one leaves the city for their own safety for now”

After a few hours have passed, the sails of the Persian fleet can clearly be seen by now. Many of the greek ships in Karpathos are docked at the port, with many of the sailors moving to the Acropolis with their own weapons as well. Because we cannot do nothing more than just watch, the Persian fleet lands just up north of Karpathos, and by the looks of it, they bring over one thousand troops. Despite their large numbers and weapons, they do not seem too eager to attack any villages or farms outside our city walls. As a matter of fact, they are too busy setting up a small camp and unloading supplies and equipment off their ships. The free people of Karpathos are mixed with fear and hope, should the Persians attack, their numbers would be funneled down by our street lay out, and lastly, the Acropolis. But if we wait long enough, the Delians will surely come to rescue us from this minor force. Till then, the Persians await outside and far from the city walls setting up their own defences and planning their next attack


(On the OOC note, i am sorry for being a bit inactive people, as school is starting again and me being sick (The perfect excuse!), i was unable to stay focus as much as before. But now i am back and i am ready willing and able to continue! And now, some music to crank up this theme.)
