Paladine nods, though his eyes are shadowed. He knows that the upcoming battle will mean the death of many of his "so-called" children.
"Lead on, my son. Let us get this conflict over with and send my sister back home, to the pits where she belongs."

*Kero nods, leading the dragons to Emnast's old home...he pulls them all inside, expanding the rooms as he does so...thanking the lord for Emnasts accomodations spell...he cloaks himself, and pokes his head out...then slowly leads them out. giving the all clear sign as he cloaks the gathering of dragons...not a visible cloak this time...those he reserves for the other simulacra he has of armies invading, half managed by Rhea and little Kero, back at their office...*

Keva looks over little Kero's shoulder and nods. "It's like playing one of those computer simulation games. Are the people you move real or imaginary?"

Keva nods nad pulls up a chair, intrigued by the whole process. "So you are a distraction then... nice. Oops... look, that unit there... it's noticed your point men.

Keva nods and continues to help Kero move his little units all about the field. Between the two of them, they become quite good at hit and run maneuvers.

*Finally, Kero, who has done his own stinging from time to tie, gets them where they need to be...he looks at Paladine, awaiting the nod that tells him to drop the cloak*

The great platinum dragon draws himself up and fans out his wings, making himself look even larger than he actually in and nods to Kerobian to drop the cloak. From behind him, the voices of his people are raised in a savage blood curdling roar.

*Kero doesn't just drop the cloak...he explodes it outward, blasting all the forces around them for ten yards to dust, and hurling those 20 yards out a hundred feet away...with his own swords and his tentacles writhing, he dives into the fray, twisting this way and that, killing shadows wantonly, his hatred of darkness obvious from how he fights*

Paladine, himself, burns away a wide swath of the shadows with a breath weapon that resembles a solar flare, allowing his followers more space in which to spread. He then launches himself into the air to hover over the battlefield, offering aid where needed, but mostly scanning the and for signs of his sister.
Odd, there are as many neutral dragons in his army as there are metallics. It appears that Takhisis may have taken on a bit more than she can chew. By attacking the young of all her non-aligned brethren, she has created some powerful enemies.

*As they fight, Paladine hears a roar come from Kero's direction, as both he and Hopian begin attacking in their deadliest forms...their ferocity is insane*

The battle is unbelievably brief, bloody, and frighteningly gory and as Paladine surveys the carnage unfold below him, he begins to realize that Tahkisis had based most of her plans on obtaining a draconic army. The very thought of it turns his stomach and angers him far beyond any anger he has felt up to this point.
He sees a solitary enormous floating fortress ahead of him, stark and asture against the dim light of the shadowed realm. He hovers in place and signals to Kerobian for him to join him.

*Whirling together like a top, Kero and Hopian break apart, flying up to him, a miniature sun and an inky shadow, both enraged at what theyhave seen*

"She thought to conquer us from within." growls Paladine low in his throat He then point to the fortress in the sky. "I haven't seen one of those in an untold number of centuries."
