Just then, an arrow flew towards the ranger. It was the other warriors of our village. We had held them off long enough for them to rally together and get armed. They all came in and joined the battle. Knat had killed their fighter and the other rouge by the time they gotten over to us. Now it was just the paladin and the ranger left to kill. It was not our fault that it had come to this. After all of the vicious fighting and blood spilt, we could not let either of them leave the village alive. They would simply bring a lot more friends with them next time to finish the job. And they would be stronger, knowing that there were some very lethal threats in the villages of the valley now. The warriors surrounded the ranger and stabbed at her until she went down. The paladin could not help her as she was totally surrounded herself. Knat got the finishing blow on her. We were done with the battle but not with the adventurers here. I yelled "We have to go to the other village! If even 1 of them makes it out alive more will come running here!" Darrien repeated my call to action. We ran there. It was a battle. It was 6 on 3.
Partaking in the battle was easy. We were just extra distractions so that Shank, Krit, Ace and Deuce could do their thing. Namely, killing all of their enemies. Out of the 6 enemies, Shank killed 3 of them. The rest killed 1 of their party each. Shank really went into a huge bloodlust. He was stabbing them all up really badly with his black blade. Now we had really defended the village. We had to bury all the bodies again. This time we made sure that the invaders were on the bottom of the grave. Our own people were placed on top of them. Even in death, the dead watched over and protected the living members of the village. Then it was time to take our revenge. The other 2 villages ratted us out. The elder council of our villages said to wipe them all out. They we could use their things and spread into a pair of small towns. It was a bit harsh in my opinion. Then again, it was a known rule that all snitches got stitches. The valley had to be unified against all the outside threats. If there were traitors, there really was no point to it anymore. We would then be allowed to have one of the villages for us.
Being that we were making a concerned effort to team up, it did not take too long to slaughter the first village of traitors. We did not leave one man, woman or child alive there. All of their goods and valuables we taken as loot. It was not something that I would normally approve of, but orders were orders. We then went to the next one and did the exact same thing to them. Once it was over we took the slightly nicer village. We were also given wives to populate it. Both for the 6 champions and all us blade spirits. With all of us, we were going to populate the village easily. 12 new pairings were going to make children to live here. We still would be the defenders of the valley and save the day if they were ever attacked. All of us were going to have a lot of fun. With all of the slaughter we had, we easily past through the next 2 milestones. Each of us evolved when we reached 25 kills. There was no point not too. The wives we were sent were pretty hot. The ones dressed in red were for us. Red was the color of offerings in their valley. They were being given over to spirits and not mortal men. It was cool.
