Ranarc's head snapped to the side at the update, now completely ignoring the Queen, before snarling something vile in draconic. He abruptly moved from the table to get room , and his four command drones popped off his back, giving him a view of the situation. He looked over the massacre, before snarling again. "Ranarc to command, confirmed Beyonder presence on the plane. I say again, confirmed beyonder presence. Appear to be stealth melee harvester... hold one. Threat level upgraded from medium to high, need assist now from local Barid forces to assist in containment and sweeps. Target is a tiny stealth melee harvest that lays rapidly incubating eggs in victims."<br/><br/>Command immediately began informing the relevant parties as they watched one of the gutted humans explode into a shower of gore, two more of the tiny killers identifiable in the detritus of the corpse. The constructs in immediately laid down lines of fire around the units being attacked, surrounding them in flame. They had yet to find any ground based unit that would willingly approach fire, and for the first time, Ranarc hoped that streak held. He immediately dubbed the units Crawlers for their obscene movement and fighting style, literally crawling up doomed troops. The Death Guards on site waved the humans not within a hundred feet of the beyonder troops out of the way before firing their elemental casters, though they didn't wait longer than a half second. If someone burned, better than letting one of these things survive longer. All of the drones moved up and began sniping, but for the first time in a long time, Ranarc was watching accuracy of his units drop below twenty percent, and even then they seemed to shrug off the laser hits. Only plasma made them screech in pain. Three of the dozen had died getting into melee, saying something about the response of the two units that had spotted them, but also something about the biohorrors themselves.<br/><br/>Back at the palace, Ranarc's head snapped about. "Ma'am, any elven settlements in this area?"<br/><br/>A fifth drone, a small half sphere with four stubby legs and a single glowing optic, popped out of his form to hover in front of the elves, before projecting a glowing blue hologram of the area. A red line showed where the humans were, and it was flashing to show where the beyonders were.
