The Raid on the Tempest Brothers Expeditionary Company was a battle fought between members of The Tempest Brothers Expeditionary Company against invading Gnoll hordes as the company attempted to retreat back to Galik. In the end the company was victorious. Even though they had lost ground in the wilds, they had survived the Gnolls extermination. In this attack the Gnolls had given up their advantage and exposed themselves, giving the company a chance to strike back in the future.
The Tempest Brothers Expeditionary Company
While many had suspected that eventually the Gnolls might retaliate, no one thought it would be so soon. It was only with the Warden's help and the defenses constructed by members of the company, Commando Reconnaissance Unit Lambda, Wiggler, Radion The Forged, Sir Yewvane Eedryll, 22, Heli Moltenshield, Dragonett, and Cealion, that the company survived.

Casualties
The most notable loss to the company during this battle was the loss of Sir Yewvane Eedryll who sacrificed himself to the helm of The Green Knight in order to permanently seal away the spirit of Lord Bellephon and to prevent the Gnolls from using the helmet for their own ends. In this sacrifice he became the new Green Knight.
The Gnoll Horde
As they had done to many companies beforehand who attempted to delve deep into the wilds, the Gnoll Hordes descended on the Tempest Brothers Expeditionary Camp. In this effort they were led by The Gnoll King, revealing themselves for the first time on the battlefield. In their efforts they received support from powerful cultists and demons who helped to manage the more complex natures of the attack while the Gnolls did much of the fighting.
Notable Losses
Many prominent Gnoll leaders and warriors were present during the raid and were slain by members of the company. These included:
- Ripjaw
- Talon
- Colonel Cordyceps
- Lord Bellephon
- The Festering One
Battlefronts
The raid was stretched across four main battlefronts. The largest was along the camp border as The Warden of the Wilds used their magic to hold off a majority of the Gnoll Hordes. The other three occurred at the camp storage site, the camp center, and at the Arcane Forge. During these battles other members of the company were loading up the airships with all of the company's supplies.
