The distant fires all over the county create great plumes of smoke which light up the night, and a warm breeze brings the smell of burnt wood and flesh all over the battlefield before the enormous shielded bridge. The burnt smell mixes with the smell of fresh blood spilling out of the lifeless humanoid and monster corpses into great pools. Then the sound of steel exiting flesh is heard.
"That was the last of the trash mobs." A handsome manly voice is heard nearby twenty people.
"I can never get quite used to that sound. Games are darn realistic these days." A soft female voice is then heard from a figure completely covered in a mismatching set of robe armor in all manner of colors and shapes.
"Hey, be quiet over there!" A rough voice is then heard from a man riding an exotic looking mount. He wears a matching black armor set with oversized pauldrons, and on his back he have a giant hammer holstered. "According to the rest of our guild the shield generators should be all destroyed soon."
Suddenly the noise of footsteps and monster snarls are heard over from the shielded bridge. Not before long the humanoids make a shield wall which make the bridge entrance completely airtight. They try to intimidate the invading force by bashing their weapons against their shields and then letting out loud war cries. Together with the monsters they create quite the racket with their cries.
"Oi, they look impatient. They must be quite pissed at our presence." Said the handsome voice which now moved out of the group. He wears a shining polished white armor which matches his golden colored eyes with the golden trims. As he walks toward the monsters on the bridge he points his enormous flaming flamberge sword towards them while grinning. "I won't mind if they all come at me at once."
The rest of the invasion force rolls their eyes and then steps into a line formation with the white armored man. Not long after comes the mounted guy behind the white armored man. He scans the enemy formation in front of his squad slowly before making a grimace.
"The shield barrier should go down any second now." The mounted man then pulls out his enormous hammer from his back, and the mount magically disappears. With his hammer resting on his shoulder, he grabs the shoulder of the white armored man. "Sir Lance, when we pull this off, our guild will go down in history."
Lance and the black armored man happily grin at each other. And Lance then leaves space for him to stand next to him. They both put down their weapons into the ground to await the barriers demise.

After a minute the barriers strength start fluctuating and enormous pillars of light are seen all around the county. The guarding force then look around behind their shield wall before refocusing on the invaders. They then start to rhythmically bang their shields meanwhile the monsters start readying their breath weapons, and the mages start buffing the warriors.
"Its showtime." Says Lance as he pulls out his enormous sword which reignites and throws remnants of flames onto the ground. He then readies his sword so he can perform a wide low swing. Meanwhile pulls the black armored man down the face guard on his helmet and prepares to perform a wide swing over head. They both have battle crazed grins as they anticipate the slaughter.
Their party now starts buffing themselves and lay down traps for the defending force. Archers prepare to snipe the enemy mages, meanwhile the mages start chanting in order to cast devastating spells.
The tension is now at an all time high between the sides. And then with a loud crack shatters the barrier like glass. In an instant the tense atmosphere disappears and all hell breaks loose. Arrows powerful enough to punch a hole through a castle wall hits the defending mages, and what is left of them is just a smear of blood on the ground as they sail through the sky with their heads missing. Simultaneously are the front row of defending humanoid soldiers both getting their heads caved in and their legs chopped off through the shields. Then they get set ablaze and shortly after burn down into fine ash.
In the next minute gets the defending force pelted with a blizzard made out of magical ice and an elemental meteor shower. The assault does not just stop there, several pillars of light shine upon them which causes anyone unfortunate to instantly become ash dolls which just require a breeze to disintegrate. The defenders suffer heavy casualties from this move of magical supremacy by the invaders.
For the next ten minutes the invading force shows no signs of slowing down as they mowed through the defenders. Occasionally bursts of red light could be seen from the castle windows which lit up the mayhem going on outside.
Halfway through the bridge, swooped an enormous scarred dragon down onto the bridge. With a great quake landed it in front of Lance and black armored man. As it looked down at them it let out a loud roar while showing its head which half of is a prosthetic made out of golden metals and trimmed with purple metals. With its great entrance the battle was halted for a moment and it then began to speak.
"Foolish heroesss... You dare yet again show yourselves in front of Raal'tara'goto's castle!" Its eyes then begin to flare out and the tail start swinging. "The sheer offensiveness of your actions mark you for death!" The dragon then let out another roar before breathing out hellfire.
Shielded by their buffs Lance and black armored man charges the dragon to bring their own arguments back at it. What ensued was an argument of great proportions which caused the deaths of at least five of their squad and all of the defending army on the bridge.
The dragon flies away heavily damaged and gained yet more scars after its defeat by the invaders.
"Damn dragon! Die already!" Cursed Lance as the dragon now is long gone in the distance.
