Sir ST faces a tough opponent in KvK

The hot summer has now passed, with autumn reaching out to Westeros, giving upon it a new edition of Kingdom versus Kingdom, an event which is one of SKR's most loved events. It had a lot of history behind it, as it is one of the oldest events within the seven Kingdoms. This meant everyone had a lot of experience participating in the event, making it all the more exciting for fighters such as Sir ST.

Sir ST is the strongest fighter of SKR, an alliance that in the past aspired to win every edition of the event, with great successes under their tag. Sir ST is an incredible warrior, with unwavering spirit and determination to combat even against the strongest foes possible. These feats made him eagerly await every edition of KvK that came his way, and for this one, he was excited for even more, as it was a no-death edition.

A no-death KvK means the revival of the lost troops during the duration of it, an incentive to have fighters all around the Kingdom test their power to the maximum, as there will be nothing staying in their way. It was the perfect opportunity for Sir ST to enjoy a thrilling fight.

As the event rapidly approached, excitement grew within SKR with each passing second, everyone awaiting the start of the event anxiously. Sir ST was leading the charge of the army that was going to go into the fight. As time passed further, the opponents were revealed, an alliance that was unknown to SKR and ST, but they looked as promising opponents due to their alliance rating, being a similar one whilst seemingly having many fighters present.

The alliance was rPL, an alliance that was all from the same timezone, where it was late for the beginning of the event. This posed a difficult challenge for ST who was awaiting them at midnight, when the event started, they were all asleep.

''We should get the castles.'' said one of the SKR members, voicing their concern on the possible lack of enemies at the beginning of the KvK.

''Let's wait a bit more,'' responded ST, ''they may have a few fighters ready to fight us off, we cannot give up hope right now and risk losing our troops this early into the fight, it will be a battle of endurance after all.'' he answered.

Thus once the event had begun, SKR did not move, waiting for rPL to make the first move, with everyone lying in wait. As more time passed, a few fighters of SKR got impatient, hurrying towards the enemy hive and castles, wishing to capture King's Landing and the points that came with it.

But that was where what Sir ST said came into play, rPL had ambushed the reckless ones, leaving them empty and robbing them of points and troops. The KvK started on a bad note for SKR. Sir ST was disheartened at the sight. He knew it was a bad choice, but yet he was unable to stop them, this was taken as a bad omen for everyone involved.

However, this was not necessarily only bad, it gave information for SKR, which they wished to use to the best of their ability. They now knew the formations of some of their fighters, and it became clear, other than Sir ST, not many posed a threat to them, SKR was outmatched in strength, despite their rating being above their opponents.

As the waters calmed down after the initial attacks, rPL decided to focus on capturing their own castles, whilst Sir ST decided it was time for SKR to secure their own as well.

This way both Kingdoms achieved many points overnight, points which were slowly but surely more leaning towards rPL due to the initial mishaps.

After many hours of peace, it was finally broken once rPL decided to break the silence and go for King's Landing in SKR's Kingdom, in order to expand their lead further.

This took SKR by surprise, as they could not know it was going to happen. Sir ST himself was not ready to face the strong opposition, they had caught him unprepared, and so was everyone else around him. Once the attacks had started flowing, many troops were lost on the K130 side, all pointing towards an inevitable loss, there seemed to be no chance for them as it stood.

The fight which was supposed to be close in strength, turned out to be a complete annihilation, despite Sir ST's carefulness in the beginning, he had lost his edge and got struck upon.

Rally after rally were hitting the SKR fighters, many of whom were losing everything they had in their defense. Sir ST was no exception to this, as immediately he got attacked and rallied inside King's Landing. Seeing the enemy march towards him, he checked what they were aiming to attack him with. A full counter to his spearmen. This sight made him disband King's Landing in a desperate attempt to try and save his troops, but rPL was waiting for that very moment, catching him fully, he never stood a chance.

This KvK was a loss that no one had anticipated, many mistakes were done, and Sir ST himself was disheartened by his own, but also SKR's mistakes. They had gotten too careless, and they needed to change that in the next event, as it was not going to be a no-death KvK any longer, it was going to have real losses, which could cost them a lot. Sir ST promised to himself to do better, and to have everyone do better as well.
