[i]Isabella knew an attempt at intimidation and a display of strength when she saw one. The Khaomites were all about their little shows of force - diсkmeasuring "but a fraction" of their forces were a favored stratagem if frightening grown men was the initial goal. Though the new military in town seemed to have more on their mind than just driving through with a powerful force.[/i] ————————————————— [i]The newcomers would find that Dojoville had been taken some time ago, by both the faction of Rubicon and another, new group that had entered the fray. The buildings of the city appeared new, likely from being destroyed repeatedly, yet some would near a high, royal purple flag, the standard fluttering within the blue sky. Sitting in the center was the head of a golden lion, it's maw opened wide as it fluttered in the wind. The symbol of this foreign faction, most likely.[/i] [i]As they carried on, the military would meet the patrols and members that served underneath this golden lion's banner: soldiers similar of their own ilk, yet adorned in armoring that was shaped in a more medieval manner. The armor was still functional and useful in a modern setting - light plates of kevlar and bullet-resistant material, accompanied by the rifles, pistols, and even longswords that were strapped to their waists, held by leather holstering. A few of the patrol units held mighty shields for crowd control and defensive measures, while the newcomers would catch a few of these.. knights, dragging off a few corpses. The stench of smoke and ash was in the air, only accompanied by the faint tint of burning flesh.[/i] [i]Dojoville, for one, had changed.[/i] [i]In the center, the group found themselves meeting a fairly large, yet transparent dome, where a fortress sat straight in the center. Trenches and spikes filled the dirt around the castle, with one entrance in, and one entrance out. Fellow facilities set up by Rubicon accompanied this main fortress, while that same lion flag flew overhead.[/i] [i]While these individuals weren't of the Dojo, it would do well to establish some communication.[/i]
