The Wall has fallen

A warrior’s journey is often guided by loyalty. Latrasil had crossed continental borders to arrive in the kingdom k93, answering the call of his friend Luxanna and her group from the BeB alliance, who had extended a formal invitation for him to fight alongside them in the War of Kingdoms. However, his plans for cross-server glory were reduced to ashes in the blink of an eye. A thick, unnatural, and freezing fog began to blanket the map the day after his arrival. This was no ordinary change in the weather; reports from the north confirmed the worst of nightmares: the Night King had breached the Wall. His gigantic castle, the Ice Fortress, had already begun its relentless march toward the outskirts of Winterfell, completely overshadowing any other dynastic disputes. The true war for the survival of the living had just begun.

The vanguard of the army of the dead was not long in coming. Massive waves of White Walkers took up strategic positions around the Night King’s Generals, who had already invaded and desecrated the Land of the Last Home in the far north of Westeros. Latrasil assessed the tactical situation with a cool head. In this instance, the balance of power was deceptive: traditionally, the generals and the Night King himself would adopt the stats of the kingdom’s strongest warrior, but recent chronicles indicated a change, now they calculated an average of the kingdom’s power. This meant that the dead possessed colossal and balanced resilience, designed to crush entire armies.

However, Latrasil had no intention of backing down. He summoned his four most loyal and lethal vassals in the conflict: Tailung, TheEND, Nadiar, and Sadille. Together, they decided to defy the logic of fear and launched a massive raid against General 28, one of the most heavily fortified positions on the icy front line.

Latrasil assumed full command of the offensive by joining the ASe alliance alongside his vassals. With the gates of his castle wide open, he coordinated massive mobilizations, managing to muster more than 5.8 million infantry soldiers for each attack. The clash with General 28 was a bloody affair. The armies of the dead felt neither pain nor fatigue, forcing Ase’s troops to pay a horrific toll in blood: each assault resulted in an average of more than 2,000 permanent casualties and more than 22,000 seriously wounded soldiers.

Each Lord’s hospitals were overwhelmed on several occasions. The resources essential to sustaining the infantry, wheat to feed the survivors, wood for the defenses, and iron to replace shattered shields, began to run out at an alarming rate. Latrasil’s war economy was bleeding dry, but its resolve remained unshaken. After an hour and a half of a brutal, uninterrupted siege, General 28 finally collapsed, dissolving into ice crystals under the weight of the infantry. This triumph immediately catapulted the elimination scores of Latrasil and its four vassals to the top of the k93 kingdom’s rankings, earning them the instant respect of the locals.

With the first general destroyed, Latrasil realized there was no time to celebrate; the Night King continued his advance and would replenish his ranks if given a moment’s respite. This was the crucial turning point of the campaign. If they allowed the dead to gather near Winterfell with all their forces intact, the final battle would be unsustainable. Latrasil made a bold decision: to immediately intercept General 18, who was strategically positioned much closer to the capital of the North.

As he analyzed the reconnaissance reports on this new position, the strategist’s eyes lit up: the vast majority of the White Walkers comprising that division were spearmen. In the combat system of Westeros, the spearman is the natural prey of infantry. The stage was set for a tactical bloodbath.

The rallies were launched one after another, without a single second of respite. The clash was of cinematic intensity. Latrasil’s infantry, aware of what was at stake, marched to the front knowing that their chances of returning were slim, but they willingly gave their lives to protect the world of the living. 

Healing resources were burned by the thousands in the ASe hospitals, but this time, the infantry’s tactical advantage over the lancers was devastating. General 18’s lines were shattered from the flanks. In just over half an hour of relentless punishment, the dead’s defensive lines collapsed completely. General 18 was defeated by Latrasil and his four brave vassals, clearing the strategic corridor to the capital.

When the clang of swords ceased and the last spectres dissolved into the mist, Latrasil surveyed the map from his castle. Supplies of wheat, wood, and iron had been significantly depleted, and medical reports bore witness to the scars of a campaign that had demanded the utmost sacrifice from his troops. However, the strategic objective had been more than fulfilled: two of the generals who would likely have served as reinforcements for the Night King had been wiped off the board, significantly weakening the strength of future enemy reinforcements.

As he surveyed the situation, a tense calm came over him. The countdown indicated that there were only 3 days left until the Night King’s arrival at the outskirts of Winterfell.

Latrasil realized in that moment that his journey to k93 was no longer about winning the War of the Realms or amassing personal glory; it was about standing firm alongside his friends in the kingdom’s darkest hour. He had spent millions in resources and lost thousands of troops, but he had proven that the dead can bleed if confronted with the right strategy. Wiping the sweat and frost from his armor, the leader gazed toward the white horizon with a somber smile: the infantry was wounded, but the shields would remain raised when winter knocked on Winterfell’s gates...
