Vicarious Attack on Direson
I wish we had met under better circumstances but I have been informed that there is the possibility of an attack on the Town of Direson. We have seen the approach of undead and roden from our scouts. Many of us worry that an attack is coming to the area.
I worry that the attack is aimed at our temple to Ornsen near the town. My advisors suggest it could be something else. That is why we meet at Count Dower’s estate to further coordinate a plan with the defenders.
Exposition
Vicarion’s Ambition
Elements to Vicarion’s path to power is aimed at destroying the luxian within the Ornsen temple just 30 minutes away on foot. It’s destruction would make it easier for him to target Cardinal Marnes when he aims to strike at Ridgewater.
Vicarion’s Strategy
Vicarion hopes to scare the Dulner leaders into spreading their forces equally to defend both the town and the temple. He sends his commanders to go after Direson and crush the forces there and then reinforce his attack onto the temple.
Leading the attack on the town are Reaving with an undead horde and Skralkal with his roden packs. Vicarion personally takes a troop to go after the temple.

Council in Session
Vicarion is coming for the temple while Reaving and Skralkal have a massive force coming for Direson. The table below determines the strength and how they’ll (mostly narratively) hold up.
