A few miles south of Wizna
Near the Dobryrion
“Last Stand Hill”
Once the vampire had finished his speech, Gregori stood quiet for a moment, his head tilting ever so slightly to the side as he stared at the vampire. However, much to his own surprise, he laughed. Though it was somewhat of a cold chuckle, it was nevertheless a laugh, something that was rare coming from a Morr devotee. "You don't find yourself in debt to the god of death himself without first suffering and paying a dear price." He said, his voice taking on a format of icy malice, though there was something else in his voice that seemed to hint that he did not mean hostility towards the other man himself. "My life was equally a twisted horror that saw me seeking Morr on more than one occasion. I lived amongst devils and filth, where the vile powers of chaos wished to damn my soul. But no!" He roared suddenly, "I would not allow that! For my soul belonged to Sigmar and Morr!" He continued, before pausing an allowing the sound of finishing battle to fill the air.
He then lowered his head, and sighed. Reaching up with one hand, he removed his helmet to show his face. Gaunt and sharp with a grim and pale look, Gregori looked somewhat similar to the vampire. On his face, though it was not immediately noticeable, there were the faint lines of age, or a man who had seen many throughout his life. Though the unmistakeable look of an aging man was present, it would appear he maintained much of his youth, through means unknown, that it was possible magic may have played a role.
"I'm older and far more powerful than I look, Herr Kruger." He said, fixing a hard gaze on the man, sizing him up. "I've yet to meet a vampire who claims unwillingness for immortality and his condition, along with claiming to be a faithful of Sigmar himself, blessed be him." Gregori fixed another hard stare, and looked up at one of his sorcerers. The black hooded sorcerer nodded ever so slightly, causing a slight ripple in his cloak.
Gregori spun his warhammer around in his hand, holding it so the head was facing backwards, behind him. Seemingly with a slight hesitation, he took a step forward and offered his armored hand. "As a warrior-priest of Morr and Grand Master of my Order, I can offer you release if Morr excepts your offer. That, however, will be determined by your actions, and I can not guarantee he will grant you his eye. I simply offer you the opportunity. That is, if I can trust you. Morr knows if I'm making a mistake, and if I am, than so be it."
In the town of Wizna
All Joquore could hear was his panting in his helmet, the trample of hooves, and the dull clanging of weapons as the knights finished up the beastmen. Though, as it so happened, fellow Empire troops were in the city as well, and as he charged past part of the village, he spotted troops and riders. He paid no heed to them at the moment, as he turned his attention forward just in time to see a beastman with a pike before him. Acting swiftly, he turned his horse to avoid impalement, though ended up offering himself instead.
The wooden pike impacted into his armored side with a sickening crunch and thud, piercing his breastplate and lifting him off of his mount. The pike broke under the weight, and a foot long sliver of the pike was imbedded into his side as he fell back onto the ground, knocking all of the air out of his lungs.
He heard a feral roar, and turned his helmeted head just in time to see several beastmen with renewed vigor running at him with clubs and old iron swords. Trying to grab his sword that had fallen beside him, he was instantly surrounded by the beastmen as he was savagely beaten. Clubs dented his armor as he desperately tried to protect his head and neck as hard clubs pounded him. The pike remains in his sides burned as he clenched, and he could not help but let out a cry of pain.
Just as he had thought more had finally called upon him, he heard yelling. Yelling of men with anger in their hearts, and looking through his slit visor with half closed eyes, he saw silver armored figures such as himself come to his help. Three dismounted knights, charging to take on at least eight beastmen, came to aid their brother. One was simply unarmed, and with an odd amount of agility, literally hopped onto one of the beastmen and began to pummel the creature with his armored gauntlets with a cry of rage. The two other knights were armed with longswords like many others of their order, and one swinging and the other stabbing, proceeded to instantly kill two beastmen.
One of the beastmen turned to swing a club at one of the knights, and found himself impaled through the chest by a gleaming sword. The knights continued to fight for their wounded brother as more beastmen made a last attempt to take down these knights as the other knights rode down the remainder around the town.
