This week, we are taking a trip to the Realm of Beasts for a battle that, at first glance, does not seem exactly fair…
(This may seem like a fairly inconsequential battle on the surface, but it turned out to be a good 'un!).
The Story So Far
The forces of Chaos had been besieging the Howling Cities of the Beastplains for months for little gain. Then, the underways were discovered.
These tunnels below the cities had been abandoned for centuries, used only as a haven for the Spiderfang Grot tribes. Now, Archaon led a combined Chaos force into the tunnels to claim them for his own.
The Spiderlord Spittlegit watched from the shadows as the Varanguard advanced, biding his time as his tribe moved into position. When he judged the time right, he ordered the attack. Alongside the Spider Riders were two Gargants the tribe had befriended, along with two massive Arachnarok Spiders also scuttling towards the cavern. All of a sudden, Archaon had a real fight on his hands.
However, the Everchosen had spied what the Spiderfang Grots had been protecting and urged his forces on to take the real prize – the nests where a new generation of spiders were being hatched.
