The portal to the west
was surrounded by demon. Ellador, one of the elven leader joined me. He
explained that someone must step over the portal to close it, and that
action would probably destroy the unit. He volunteered to be the one, if
I was able to keep him alive until then. Almost instantly we were
attacked by a demon squad - a hero, a huge Demon(lvl3 flying unit) and a
2 Quaisits(Demon lvl1 unit). We hold them near the towers. Miranda
wasn't very useful at that time. She desperately needed level 7
Divination Magic. Explorers reported huge Salamanders(level 2 Demon unit
with armor piercing) in the centre of the map. After we get rid of the
enemy hero, we just needed to gather some army and breach the live demon
wall. Defending the rift mission become replayable, they were not
giving up so easily. There we found our first Quest Giver(a Mausoleum or
Shrine that give some reward for making given task on the map). Miranda
got a few more levels and it was time to move south to Ssrathi lands...
