Tower
The tower is not particularly high; you estimate it's about 8 meters high. Then again, the watchtower is on a small hill, so perhaps it needn't be so high.

The skittering noises intensify. Mircea's horse neighs, snorting.
"Radu isn't liking this situation. I say we get in and deal with whatever's inside already. Only on your orders, man of stone, of course!"

Fort
Nobunaga's sensors are set up, but some sort of interference seems to be disrupting them from activating. One of his sensors does manage to tell him that the source is underground, a couple of meters at best; most likely, the weapon itself is screwing with his ability to sense anything. The same thing seems to be happening to Hector's own sensor, as it perceives mostly fuzziness.

Ryuko raises her hand.
"I-I could come with you, T-Tanis, if that's okay..."

With the teams settled, Ophelia nods.
"I have acquired several maps for you to follow and marked out the locations for you."
She passes out several orbs with glowing cores within. When held, these orbs expand into what appears to be a holographic map, marking where the destination they are to be heading to is and where they currently are.
"I will be in contact with you through telepathy, if possible. Discord's magic prevents me from seeing too much more in the area, but I will be able to use you as backdoors through his powers. Still, the connection will be fainter than usual, so do not be surprised if I cannot aid you more than I can without.

Now, go. I wish you the best of luck."

The parties set out:
Tanis, Florida, Ryuko, Sera, Hector, Nobunaga and Angelo head off in the direction of the fort. Meanwhile, Mircea and Crocoite lead the way to the tower, with Kumo, Miyu, Nthchito, Leonidas and Avve following behind.

The Abandoned Fort
As the party arrives at the fort, several things are clear. Firstly, their opponents have had time to set up rudimentary defenses; the fort, which seems to consist of a ruined keep partially submerged in a swamp, has been encircled by a small wooden garrison that itself has been reinforced with several barricades in and out of the garrison. There seems to be several entrances in and out of the place, but no visible enemies for now.  The wooden fortification seems to contain a space large enough for a decent amount of ranged combat.
>There does not seem to be a distinct enemy presence I can detect. They are nearby, but....the weapon and Discord's magic is clouding my sight. You need to get closer.<

The Watchtower
As you approach the tower, you take note of the wooden walls surrounding the small tower, appearing more like a church tower than a military installation, a warning bell installed and clearly visible on the top. A canopy seems to be installed, hooked between the tower and the outer walls, made of leather and seemingly to keep out rain. Only one entrance is visible into the inside of the area, which seems quite small and cramped due to the canopy and the small space between the outer walls and the towers. The faint noise of skittering can be heard within; it sounds akin to small rods of glass tinkling against each other.
>....I am detecting something......inhuman in there. Whatever it is, it is wholly alien to me. You will have to step inside, but be careful.<

Alright, everyone's getting auto-assigned if you haven't chosen a team already. As for anyone who hasn't posted in a while, I'm giving you two days to post or you're out of the game. This game depends on players to be active (what with the players also being the bosses) so I'll just find a few other people to do that if the people already in the game won't.

You guys have until tomorrow (around 1 PM to be exact) to start arranging yourselves into teams, otherwise I'll just autoassign anyone who hasn't already picked one.

"I-I think I should go to the fort too..."

Ophelia and Mircea are standing by the entrance, as promised. Mircea is standing outside the palace, quietly speaking in an unknown tongue- it sounds to anyone who might be familiar to the languages like a mixture of Romanian and Swedish- to the large, white armored horse that he rode upon yesterday, seeming to soothe the vast steed.

Ophelia herself looks perfectly ladylike and calm despite it being really early in the morning. Perhaps she grooms herself well.
"I apologise for waking you all up at such an early hour, but I have located our enemies. Earlier, I did a preliminary sweep of the area around us for several miles and I located a group of armed humanoids- tall, with grey skin and heavily armed- occupying an abandoned, flooded fort. This fort was one of the locations where a series of old weapons, powerful enough to level cities, was stored, so I suspect Discord is attempting to acquire one for his own aims.

I also detected activity in a nearby watchtower, directly in a position to warn anyone in the fort of incoming intruders. I am not sure of the nature of whatever is in there, but it isn't human. Discord's magic is preventing me from identifying anything further than that- I sense that it is part of the abilities he grants his Fiends.

However, at this stage, I would advise that you split into two groups. One group ensure that whoever is in the tower is unable to warn or assist the people in the flooded fort. The others should intercept Discord's forces at the fort itself and ensure that the weapon is not acquired. Crocoite, I suggest that your strength might be required at the tower, in order to ensure that, if this unknown entity is powerful, it is restrained. Lord Mircea will also accompany you to the tower, in order to ensure there are no stragglers who might warn their allies. Master Tanis, I suggest you should go with the others to the weapon. Your talents with magic might be of use against their group. The rest of you, decide now where you'll go."

The Next Morning
After you have all presumably acquired rooms in the small palace, you are all summoned by Ophelia's voice in your heads, woken up by her presence in your heads. The first rays of light shine into the floor where the rooms are; mostly furnished with simple wooden beds and various containers to put belongings in.

While you debate the politeness of someone waking you up like this, the content of what Ophelia has to say is more alarming.
>Please, meet with Lord Mircea and myself by the entrance of the palace. I have found something that requires an urgent and immediate meeting.<

"Perkele!"
Joakim lets out a furious stream of Finnish curses as he clutches his wound and hunkers down to avoid being shot.
Stay down and out of sight. Take the binoculars and keep an eye on the bunkers from cover.
