Bermegan turned to General Morling. "If we wait any longer the city will be lost before we even leave this building. We can't stay here much longer." The General pondered the thought for a few moments and answered.
"You do have a point. If she does not arrive shortly we shall leave. She will have to find us on the battlefield."
"No!" Bermegan retorted. "All of us must go now. When I came here, the Vergal forces were already advancing on the city."
"I see. Though I don't like taking orders from lower ranked Knights, you are right again. She will have to make her own way to the battle." General Morling approached two large doors and pushed them both open revealing a tremendous stone city bathed in evening mix of light and darkness. "We must find our way to the Southern wall. The attack will take place there. Come!" He left the building and made his way to the wide path of rock and slabs. All around them were towering buildings of pearl white stone. "We will never make it on time at this rate." The General took of both of the gauntlets he had been wearing and revealed that in the palm of each hand, he also had a jewel embedded. One white and one black. As he extended his arm outwards, a strange, green vortex began to swirl in the ground. Three others appeared at it's side. From theses portals in the ground, four lizard like creatures that walked on four legs rose. "You can mount these." General Morling continued."They won't do you any harm and they are easy to control. But do not take them into battle, they are for transport only. Although they can defend you if any Vergals happen to obstruct our path.
