Chapter 18 - Balor makes preparations 14

The palace main room or council chamber. high-ranking. The colorful ceremonial banners of the Bethmora adorn the room, crowded with elves and other magical beings representatives from across the land, all now slightly worried.At the center sits King Balor behind him, the willowy, beautiful Princess Nuala all of them were discussing about the recent attack by humans.

King Balor looking at Hadrian and Nuada said"While your actions were ruthless,I could see why you took it."

Nuada controlling his emotions replied"They slaughtered everyone and didn't even leave behind children.They even went as far to celebrate there raids."

King Balor clenched his arm rest in anger and asked"What else did you find about these attacks?"

Hadrian with serious tone explained"I looked into few of upper ranked soldiers memories and it seems humans are rallying together to take over the magical world.I saw many Kingdoms sigils among them and quite a few well known Generals from different kingdoms."

King Balor's face grew more grim by the minutes,while the council members seems to muttering to each other.Nuala looked at Hadrian with slight worry.

Balor taking deep breath,calming himself down said"Hadrian start creating those barriers the more dangerous once would be preferred around Bethmora."

The King then looked at Nuada and continued"Nuada go send the warning to other clans and tribes about this make sure they understand how severe the situation is."

Around Bethmora barrier created was quite lethal and subtle,all those who attempted to pass through it became enmeshed and wandered aimlessly as if lost in an impossible maze of trees, placing them in a situation where their food would eventually run out and they would die.

A human-Repelling Charm can be used to prevent human from seeing magical related places or items.Every time humans have got anywhere near here all year, they've suddenly remembered urgent appointments and had to dash away again

The second method is fog that not only causes the person who wanders it to lose memory,but they will be in daze and would be completely lost in the Forest.The another ward would trip,causing trees come alive and walk with their roots, causing violence and destruction towards the enemy or trespasser.After the enemy is killed,they will go back to there place.

The warnings sent out didn't have effect they thought,since majority ignored it and those that took it seriously came to Bethmora to talk for sanctuary.Hadrian started getting everything ready for war enchanting better armor and weapons.

The new Elven elite guards had ornate protective armor, including a chest plate with a high neck guard or collar, shoulder guards, gauntlets, boots, and a distinctive, ornate helmet.They also carried a variety of weapons. Most commonly, they use swords,but some used spears of which are double-tipped and some had enchanted bows for long range.

Additionally, they also carried ornate, enchanted  shields,which magically encased within a gauntlet. When the button on the side of it is pressed, a full shield spirals outward.The shield is enchanted to take the hardest blows from trolls to orcs.

While Hadrian also trained some do the men with Nuada in different formations.Just like they had thought the attacks increased after certain period and those that denied there warning had to come to Bethmora for help.Thus a army of magical beings were formed to combat the threat of human army.
