The Crystal War Revisited

From PlayOnline.com:



To commemorate the release of the "Wings of the Goddess" expansion pack, a special event entitled "Crystal War Revisited" will begin on Thursday, November 8, 2007 at 01:00 PST.

Which nation do you think was most influential in the outcome of the Crystal War?

San d'Oria and its noble knighthood? Bastok and its formidable artillery? Windurst with its unparalleled magic?
This controversy can only be resolved by you!

Capture crystal fragments from beastman-held positions to attain victory and glory for your nation!

That's right, an anachronistic outbreak of the Crystal War in the modern day! And this time, who better to shoulder the burden of battle than the mighty adventurer!

For instructions on how to play "Crystal War Revisited" and other details, please see the new Topics to be posted on the day the event begins.

"Even now, I still see it in my dreams. It was the night of the Siege of Sarutabaruta. My Caster Company was in the gate's lookout tower, preparing for battle. The magical barrier on the gate was Windurst's last line of defense from the teeming hordes below. We looked out over our doom; countless beastmen, and Goddess knows what else, covered the land as far as the eye could see..."in the middle of the war, while the majority of the allied forces were massed on the front lines, the Shadow Lord assembled thirty thousand of his best troops to put an end to the threat posed by the Combat Casters. Standing against those thirty thousand was the city guard of Windurst, who numbered less than a thousand--including Cardians. It was as obvious as a Yagudo campfire on a moonless night that the city was about to fall.

He continued. "It was a face-off at Odin's Gate. Orders came from the division commander to our Caster Captain: 'Hold them off.' That was all.

"The monstrous horde was bathed in the pale glow of the moon. Only a miracle would bring us through to see another dawn. Terror gripped my body and I lost my footing, tumbling down before the beastmen set against us...

"I doubled over in pain. All I could hear were the metallic scrapes of swords being pulled from their scabbards and the blood-curdling cries of the advancing beastmen. They had seen me fall and were approaching fast.

"The monsters rushed towards me like a wave in a storm, unconcerned with the spells raining down upon them.

"I was doomed. But at the very moment I gave up all hope, there was a flash of light and a soul-shaking howl that resounded over the plains of Sarutabaruta!

"I looked up to see a shaft of divine light stretching from the top of the magic tower toward the full moon that hung in the sky.

"That's right! It was the great hero, Karaha-Baruha! He was summoning! It was an enormous beast! Right there! Above the tower!

"And the battle took a tremendous turn! Each swing of the beast's mighty forelegs sent dozens of beastmen flying! The magic emanating from his immense body vaporized hundreds more!

"Before we even realized what was happening, the beastmen were turning tail and fleeing. The humongous beast had broken both their ranks and their morale, and now he was hunting down those that had breached the gates to the city. Then, as suddenly as he had come, he flew off. It all happened in the blink of an eye,"
I know this one!

Prische went back in time, and dropkicked the Shadow Lord in the face and curbstomped him into the ground.

That's right. Tavnazia saved the day. We all fail.

It was the unsheathing of Lightbringer that unleashed the devastating light that ended the war. Which was done unknowingly by an Elvvan. *cough* Sandoria in it's snobby folly ended the war. And how can you say Bastoks artillery / windburns' magic... when magic in itself is a form of artillery
Wolf!

obviously the mighty magics of windurst won the war. Even the elvaan reconized this as they attempted to build unferground passages to smuggle tarus from windurst to other parts of the front lines.

But this does sound like it should be fun. death to the beastmen ^^b
the answer is obvious...
