It took me way too long to realize that my two second-in-commands are also a norn and an asura. Just with probably less conflicting priorities than Taimi and Braham, since both of them sort of distanced themselves from their own cultures quite a while ago.
Or maybe even the contrary. Nhorah would probably advocate on targeting Primordus first (”If sylvari could stand against Mordremoth, we can stand against Jormag”), while Zhenta would vote on taking down Jormag as soon as possible (”We can withstand fire, but we can’t allow Jormag to turn our own soldiers against us”).
Reunion!
Bangar’s civil war may tear a nation apart, but at least it brought our heroes back together.
Quick overview about where they are now and how they are helping out in the war efforts:
#1 - Ciranan and Myrr - Advancing Firepower
These two have known each other for a while but neither of them expected to meet here, on this battlefield. Not knowing what else to do, Ciranan decides to stick with Myrr and the Flame Legion on the eastern front and he quickly earns respect with the very literal firepower he unleashes at the Dominion forces. While he is still very loud and bratty between two fights, Myrr can’t help noticing how more quiet and less of a bastard he is overall compared to how she knows him. The tired, empty eyes and the number of empty mugs quickly give away that the war takes its toll even on him.
#2 - Nhorah and Tyrus - Beach Patrol
These two are assigned to Port Cascadia and has to ensure that the coast is clear of enemy forces and that the supply line between them and Petraj Overlook is working and undisturbed. Nhorah is having way too much fun with the Iron Legion Charzookas and frequently challenges other charr into Dominion chopper shooting showdowns.
#3 - Zhenta - Skyscale Test Rides
It seems like the payoff for those long months spent in Elona has finally arrived. With the most promising, young skyscale arriving on the field, Zhenta is spending most of her time surveying enemy movements from above and scaring the shit out of Dominion soldiers with the skyscale’s roar. When her winged companion needs rest, she usually hops over to the forest and joins the Seraph mesmers to help cover the guerilla operations.
#4 - Senterya - Guerilla Commander
The dense forest is just the perfect terrain for her abilities. The quick and merciless raids on Dominion forces quickly deplate the morale of Bangar’s soldiers and makes them abandon their posts and territories. Whenever she is not directly needed for an operation, she usually escorts supply caravans or makes coordinated scouting flights with Zhenta on her gryphon.
Local genius educates the Commander about asuran principles.
Bangar should run.
[...] The situation is dire, I need to admit, but there is hope, and there is help on our side.
My team is working flawlessly. I was originally worried we won’t be able to cooperate when it’s just the three of us, away from the Pact, but by now I can see I was concerned for nothing. With Nhorah’s valor and Zhenta’s wit on my side, I’m positive we can put an end to this chaos here at Southsun soon.
Wish me luck.
Best regards, Your Commander
Trying to put together new armors for the upcoming s1 episodes for the main three, with more or less success. It’s a ton of fun trying to disconnect from everythin that happened so far and put myself back into the shoes of the sapling who just a while ago took down Zhaitan and is full of confidence and suspects nothing.
While Sent and Zhenta are busy poking their noses into other people‘s past and scheming and speculating, Nhorah stayed back at Bjora Marches to keep a close eye on the situation there. Meanwhile, Tyrus is keeping a close eye on Nhorah at the Commander’s request.
Nhorah isn’t too flattered that she is “being bodyguarded by a pesky mesmer”, but two can chop up icebrood more efficiently, so she doesn’t complain much.
Even busy Commanders deserve a day off, am I right? @procrastinator-kinn
