The Leth Deriel Resistance

by Basthet Thutmose

"Aye Basthet, see ye are back from Leth Deriel. Heard ye helped with the resistance force down there?" says Baresh as he hands Basthet a mug of Elothean windhaze.

" Aye, indeed, I did Baresh. It was dangerous and grand time fer all of us fighting on the south side of the barricade. I have never seen such teamwork among strangers in me life. I suppose war and lack a freedom will do that to folk. She grins again and gazes around the bar.

"So tell me, Basthet, how did it all begin? With so much news about the Crossing over the days I haven't heard much about what else is happening in Elanthia."

"Well Baresh, the first couple days of the war it seemed Leth was being ignored by the commanders and most folk fer the fight up north in the Crossing. This was understandable I had heard news of how bad it was. I myself had left for Leth to get away from it, since at first I wasn't to thrilled about fighting anyone or anything . But that's neither here nor there. Soon after I arrived in Leth, Sorrow's Forces built a barricade on the STR."

"Aye I had heard that from patrons who came in that is was annoying but nothing to worry about since they could gates out to the crossing or where ever needed" sighs Baresh

"That was true and after being there a few days I became angry with the lack of concern about this barricade, for it was stopping safe passage for a lot of folk to the south to a more peaceful place if they were unable to fight in the war. Not to mention more forces for the war coming up to fight! I even heard on the gweth someone say "who cares about Leth!" At that point my apathy towards the war started to wane. I decided to take it upon myself to start the resistance At first it was jest me, but luckily I found others who felt the same about Leth Deriel. We banded together and began with a series of sneak attacks on the barricade and continued till it fell with help from the north eventually. It was a real team effort all our skills were tested since we were a small band of warriors. We died many a time but kept fighting fer the cause. I feel very privileged to be associated with such a great group of folk. So that's how the Leth Deriel Resistance started and succeeded in liberating the STR." Basthet says with a smile.

" Aye I had heard without The Resistance the STR Barricade would haven't fallen as soon as it did" Baresh sips some grog.

"Aye, To The Leth Deriel Resistance, Huzzah!" Basthet raises her mug finishes her windhaze.

"Huzzah Basthet! Baresh grins and raise his mug. Basthet gives some coin to Baresh and saunters off into the night.
