Warpath. 21

In the front of the column of warriors Polan rode on one of his dragons. His men had returned and Polan decided Pennora would be next. So far they had taken two other city states after Maveta. One a Elf city and the other a large human community. From each he took what he wanted and set up a governor to rule while he was away.So far nothing could stand in his way. Shadoe and the dragons could take down any walls. No Weapon could hurt them. Those that refused to accept him received the poison and fell under Polan's influence. Three men came riding up on Polan. Two were generals from Mavata, one was a elf from Trindell. All dressed in bloody armor from fighting. Polan stopped his dragon for them.
" Any news on Prince Shayn?" Polan asked.
" Yes Sire." The elven warrior said. " He is in school in Winterhaven."
" The sorcerer city." Polan got down from the dragon. " We'll have to visit there soon."
" Have a care Sire." The elf said. " They are very powerful. The council controls the whole city and the surrounding area. There are dark wizards too."
" Perhaps they will join me. Or I can persuade them." Polan reached out to touch the elf. He drew back from him. Polan reached out and grabbed him by his neck.
"You are mine to do as I please." He screamed at him. " If i want you dead, that's what you shall be. So die fool!"
He racked his face and threw him down. The elf screamed and withered in pain on the ground. His face began to swell as the poison took affect. His mouth opened as his tongue filled it until he couldn't breath. The elf died there and Polan kicked him out of the way as he walked pass.
" Now." he said. " Leave him there. Whats the reason we have stopped? is there a problem here?"
"There's a magical barrier around the city." One of the generals said. " We cant get through it."
" Get out of my way." Polan said. He pushed pass and walked toward the city. Polan held out his hand probing for the barrier. there it is. As he touched it it shimmered but stood hard. He needed a spell to get through. Polan sat down and concentrated and the sky grew darker, his power grew around him.
" When i bring down this barrier, i want everybody in. Take no prisoners, not even woman or children."

SHIELDS OF LIGHT ,SHIELDS OF POWER
I TEAR YOU DOWN THIS HOUR
NO MAGIC CAN HOLD ME BACK
NO ONE CAN STOP MY PACK
ALL SHALL FALL BEFORE MY MIGHT
YOUR CITY IS MINE ON THIS DARK NIGHT.

Lightning began to fall time and time again striking the barrier. With great thunderous noise and flashes of light it fell. Polan waved his army in. Every man charged in to do as his master commanded. Polan folded his arms and laughed as his men took down the gates and began to slaughter the people. Screams filled the night, and blood ran everywhere. Polan loved it. This world would be his, all of it. And Rage and the rest wont be able to defeat me now.
" HA! HA! HA! HA! HA! HA! HA! HA!......
