Relay reporting in! Captain Dive Bomb has been located! He's injured and unconscious, but alive for now. Resources show that the gate has been compromised, finish your assignments quickly and make for the rendezvous point at the Eastern and Southern walls. Will be sending escort teams to extract you after the sun is down.

A messenger soon shows up and relays what's been happening with the gates, bleeding all over the place.

"Of course we're getting pushed back." Relay says with a frown before powering up his spell again.

Rock Star, fall back and take over command for Cookie Cutter, get a medic or two to keep you stable and try to hold out a bit longer. We'll see what we can do about getting you a bit more support.

"Oi, get Captain Dive Bomb up and functional again as soon as possible! Don't care if you all drop from exhaustion doing so, just get it done! I've gotta contact home base about something, so get it done! Soldier, return to the battlefield and keep that wall occupied!"

Well, it seems Staccata managed to come across an enemy mercenary band. While it would be unlikely that they'd be amiable to talk before calling for help, there may be some paperwork or messages to rifle through. Plus they're distracted so there's that.

The mare waits for one of the mercs to get themselves separated. Then she'll sneak over and introduce somepony's back of the skull to a blade hilt.
