Day 120

I didn't get much of a chance to write yesterday, things are just now calming down.

The moment our soldiers started moving through the portal into the other dungeon they heard the sounds of conflict. We had arrived in the middle of a siege, one that our side was losing badly.

From there it was all hands on deck. The enemy had so many soldiers that they outnumbered us three to one, and they weren't exactly novices. I might not have been able to stray from the other dungeon, but I had to do everything I could to assist in the fighting. Primarily I just kept our soldiers awake and alive, and without that, we would have no doubt lost.

But after nearly two days of bloody fighting, we managed to drive off the besieging army. We suffered moderate losses as the enemy quickly learned that nothing short of instant death was enough to keep our soldiers down, but they often weren't equipped for that type of fighting.

Once the enchanters finish repairing their city teleporter we will have a solid foothold in the middle of enemy territory, we are close to being able to march on their capital. My Paladins and I can pressure them from their edges, while Par can pressure them from the middle. Forcing them to either abandon one or split their forces.

It's great to see Askos and my father again. They both look older, Askos for the better and my father for the worse. Askos is more mature, more confident, while my father looks worn down and drained. There is nothing biological that I can fix, it's all mental. He's tired, for lack of a better word, and there is little I can do to help.

I wish I could have stayed longer, but we couldn't keep the portal open indefinitely. It can strain the dungeon cores to do something like this, and if we are unlucky then one of us would have blacked out before everything was done causing the portal to close. If I was still inside the other dungeon then I would die.

I'm not sure what it going on over there right now, but I do want to get back to work. There is nothing that needs my attention at the very least.

So Good Night Diary.
