THE ORIGINAL STORY BY [[ANEUS]]
Back in the early days, one of the ancestors of King Tibianus, king Xenom, wanted to build the best city in the world of Tibia - Carlin. The works on this new city began and the king sent his best soldiers to protect the workers from the orcs and to make them work harder by cruel ways. They were the elite of the whole army. They were called the Red Legion (also known as the bloody legion). The orcs attacked the workers from time to time and so they slowed down the development of the city. In the end everything was developed perfectly. A giant castle was built in the northeast of the city. But more and more workers started to rebel because of the bad working conditions. All rebels were brought to the giant castle. Guarded by the Red Legion, they had to work and live in even worse conditions. Some friends of the king's sister were also brought there. The king's sister was pretty upset about the situation there but her brother didn't want to do anything about this matter. So she made a plan to destroy the Red Legion forever. She ordered her loyal druids and hunters to disguise themselves as orcs from the near island and to attack the Red Legion by night over and over again. The General of the Red Legion became very angry about these attacks and after some months he struck back! Most of the Red Legion went to the island by night. The orcs were not prepared and the Red Legion killed hundreds of orcs with nearly no loss. After they were satisfied they walked back to the castle. It is said that the orcish shamans cursed the Red Legion. Nobody knows. But one third of the soldiers died from a mysterious disease on the journey home. Some of their graves can be seen at Northport Graveyard (). The orcs wanted revenge, and after some days they struck back! The orcs and many allied cyclopses and minotaurs from all over Tibia came to avenge their friends, and they killed nearly all the workers and soldiers in the castle. The help from the king's sister came too late. She tried to rescue the workers but sadly failed. The orcs started to immediately attack her troops too. Her royal troops went back to the city. A trick saved the city from destruction. They used the same trick as the one against the Red Legion and the orcs started to fight their non-orcish-allies. After a bloody long fight the orcs went back to their cities. The city of Carlin was rescued. Since then, a woman has always been ruling over Carlin and the statue was made to remind us of their great tactics against the orcs and the Red Legion. So that was the story of Carlin and Fields of Glory.
TO KEEP THE MEMORY OF THIS GREAT BATTLE, A [[HERO STATUE]] WAS BUILT:<BR /> ''YOU SEE A HERO STATUE.''<BR /> ''YOU READ: DEDICATED TO ALL WOMEN, WHO DEFEATED BRAVELY AND CLEVER THE ORCISH HORDES AND SAVED CARLIN FROM DESTRUCTION''
