Edge of the Abyss

After being awoken by his cursed priest Holi Smotep, The Ahmunite Pharoah Eddie Hotep decided to march his loyal army to the Twilight Glades, drawn by a power no evil could resist. He did not like to leave his desert kingdom but the pull and potential of the dark power became more vivid as the approached the glades.

The moment his army entered the woodland realm, a force of Sylvan Elves sprang from the shaded eves and rained steel tipped destruction upon his troops. With the aid of his high priest
(Smotep), the Empire of Dust surged across the battle field to bring a grizzly death to their pointy eared foe.

Hotep and his regiment of Royal Chariots steamed down the left flank of the enemy, the Elves had tree spirits working with them, but to no avail, although his troops were sweep aside by some walking tree, Hotep slew all who challenged him, even taking the fight to the Elven general on his winged beast.

As the fighting subsided, casualties were high, largely with the mortal army. Two portals had been located, captured and drain of power, two remained in contention, whilst two lay undiscovered, yet calling to the forces of darkness.
