Drakel vs. Elves

"The Battle Continues"

- Descriptive title

Drakel vs. Elves is a quest that follows directly from Seed Spitter, and thus, the second quest to be part of the game's storyline.

Synopsis
The Chosen travels to the field of Brakanub where the remainining survivors of the forest's army retreat in the face of an impending defeat by the Drakel forces. As Count Sarkat appears, the Chosen must defeat him to end the brutal battle....

Dialogue
Cudgel: I think I'm the last Moglin to escape the battle alive! The fields of Brakanub will forever be stained with the blood of Moglins, Elves, and unfeeling Drakels! Cudgel: I pray to the Earth Lord that you make the right decision today, human. Uh-oh! Here comes Lt. Rilithia. I hope this doesn't mean the Drakel have broken our ranks and have gotten back into the forest! Rilithia: Adventurer! I remember you. You saved my life in Greenguard Forest. Little Cudgel, you should hurry away-- the Drakel broke through our defenses again. I don't think we can hold them this time. Cudgel: I-- I can't do it, Rilithia. I can't run away when my allies need me! When the forest needs me! I will fight until either the last Drakel war beast falls or I breathe my last breath! RAAAHHHHHH! Rilithia: If Cudgel wishes to battle on, then I can do nothing to stop her. The Drakel march ever onward to find what it is they want with no regard for the forests they destroy in the process. They deserve to face the rage of the Moglin... Rilithia: So why are you here, human? Have you come to side with us, or with the sapthirsty Drakel??

 * Janner: You human! Did you see who did this? Was it the foul Drakel?
 * «You»: Well...
 * I did it!
 * Janner: You! I had never thought humans of such fiendish actions! I will never again underestimate the evil your race is capable of.


 * Sure, it was a Drakel
 * Janner: Just as I thought. Come, take up arms with us against the terrible Drakel forces.


 * Drakel: There they are! The last of them!
 * Janner: Drakel! They outflanked us while our attention was drawn to Rilithia and the wayward human!
 * Drakel: FIRE!

 * Cudgel comes out from the trees and hits Sarkat with her spear.


 * Count Sarkat: AUGH!!!
 * Cudgel: Run while you can! The Drakel have departed from the forest, but it is not because we defeated them...
 * Cudgel: They've taken all the trees they need for now to feed their beasts. We live to fight anohter day!
 * Cudgel: Maybe the only way we can stop the Drakel from destroying more forests is to find whatever it is they're looking for before they do! If you find a Drakel that is friendly to humans, see if you can enlist their help. Good luck!
