Introduction:

In 2311 A.D. of the Earth-humans’ Gregorian calendar, an alliance of multiple armies and navies from the rebuilt human nations, centuries after humankind had been reduced to less than 1% of its 2012 population and might, finally managed to organize itself enough to siege the entire continent of Antarctica, eventually closing in on the hidden location of Inisfree (Mt. Kirkpatrick of the Trans-Antarctic Mountains).  This was actually the destined/inevitable luring/sucking in of the remaining ‘dark’/foolish/incompatible forces from all around the Earth, dramatically reducing all those new/restored human nations’ military might and ability to defend/isolate/control themselves.  Millions of troops from around the planet all massed around the outside of Inisfree, making their way into its Perimeter Orb, at which point the snow-hidden crevasse-like tank-traps and other concentric defenses made quick work of them all.

Though the enemy (corrupted/evil humans) had, technically, launched a surprise attack against Inisfree, it was Inisfree that had the greatest surprise.  Some say the Inisfreeans had baited the bad humans all along, ever since making themselves semi-known during The Rapture Campaign at the start of 2013.  Whatever the case, the humans’ multi-national ambush of Inisfree failed miserably, leaving so few survivors that they couldn’t even man their own remaining ships to sail back home.

Inisfree responded by doing what should have come as no surprise; from its concealed position in Antarctica, it allowed the attackers to get within range of its defenses, waited as its superior technology rapidly reduced the attackers’ numbers down to almost zero, and then rushed out past them in all directions, ignoring the dying survivors of all those corrupt armies and navies, making a sphere-encompassing beeline for all the bases and cities from which they had come.  This was the first global ambush, followed by the first global reverse-ambush; humans had sent forces from all around the world to converge on one mountain, and the people living on and in that mountain had appropriately retaliated by doing the (pun not intended) polar opposite.  This second global advance of the Inisfreeans was not to clean up polluted oceans or erase pollution-causing human cities and vehicles, however; it was just the counter/reverse-ambush, and it culminated in the release/flights of the returned/resurfaced dragons (who’d been called upon, helped back into the Earth’s physical plane and outer surface regions, and coordinated with as friends and equals all along; throughout all those 300 Earth-years between The Rapture Campaign and now).

Some Details:

It was the largest military force and invasion ever assembled; millions of troops, ships, and vehicles from all the mega-cities were made and sent.  (All of the forces available from the Americas had traveled down over South America to the Antarctic peninsula (Graham Land), all the available forces of Europe and Africa had gone down over South Africa until arriving at Neuschwabenland‘s historic bank/coast/area (Queen Maud Land), and all the available forces of Asia had gone by Australia to New Zealand, from which they’d made it across the Southern Ocean to end up at the edge of the white continent’s third side (Wilkes Land).)  The result was essentially an entire nation worth of people and supplies showing up all along the shores of Antarctica, and condensing as they all drove and flew inland.  They stopped in a giant ring of rings around Inisfree, once they’d concluded they had to be around the right area.

“No stone was left un-turned.”  With that many people, it had become possible to form actual unbroken lines of units and individuals all around the edge of Antarctica, and, as they marched, drove, and flew closer to the South Pole, that line started to bunch up, overlap, and turn into two, …then three, …then many concentric lines of their forces.  Every square inch of Antarctica got walked over and carefully observed… until there was only one place left where Inisfree could be.

It was the mist that gave it away; there wasn’t supposed to be any weather like that on the continent, at least not outside of white-out events.  The troops’ commanders quickly realized they had found one of the outer high-tech forms of camouflage rumored to’ve been used to keep that city hidden from humanity for so long.  Carefully pushing even closer to Inisfree’s perimeter from all sides, their scouts began to fall into the crevasses, but it was too late for the rest of their units to react; Inisfree’s long-distance rainbow-cannon lasers and masers had started up, lighting up the Antarctic skies with their split-second heat and flashes, disabling every vehicle and aircraft, often melting the people inside, and leaving the vast majority of them grievously wounded and crying out for help that couldn’t come.

The humans had thought that invading the entire continent, surrounding it with all their navies blockading the entire Southern Ocean, and using blitzkrieg tactics to hopefully overwhelm what was said to be just a single lonely city… would be enough.  They thought that doing this during the season-long single day Antarctica had each year… would ensure they had the best visibility and range.  They also knew the continent had been thawing for centuries, so their troops would stand a better chance surviving its legendary dryness, wind, elevation, and cold.  They were wrong; all their timing did… was create a false sense of confidence and hope, stranding all of them right where it was easiest for the Inisfreeans to dispatch their kind, once and for all.

As all the jets and missiles were overridden, being made by Inisfreean minds to change course, crashing into one another, and all the ejection seats jammed so they could not function, the millions on the ground looked up in awe and horror, realizing their collective mistake had been terminal.  Falling wreckage rained down all upon and around them, littering the battlefield so much that not even their tanks could get by.  Not even minutes later, 99% of them, from the skies and on the ground, were dead.  The 1% that were left… were left to flee on foot, back across hundreds of miles of frozen, barren, unforgiving Antarctic terrain, and the snow-blindness would claim them all –even before exhaustion and PTSD did.

Inisfreean fighter-jets deployed from the holy city in all directions, teleporting ahead, using their warp-surfing ability and know-how, getting them right out to the edge of their home-continent, right to within view of all the aircraft carriers and escort vessels encircling the great landmass out there.  Their maker had studied such ships during his youth back in the early 2000s, and had developed a way a single missile could take out such a massive planes-filled ship, rendering it useless, even its entire runway too cratered to launch or land any of its planes.  The Inisfreean pilots targeted and disabled every ship of all the navies gathered and patrolling out there, using that technique their maker had figured out all those years ago, and then bombed the last of the ice-shelves clinging to their continent back behind them, letting them break and drop free, sending up massive tidal-waves that rolled and sank all those ships they’d just taken out.

Operation Highjump had attempted to harass and stop the relocating German elites (descendants of angels, and who had moved their capital to clever place beneath one of Antarctica’s ice domes) elsewhere on the continent during the Winter of 1946-1947.  This; this global ambush during the Winter of 2311-2312 (which is the southern hemisphere’s Summer), was the second major military effort against innocent people using Antarctica as a refuge and regrouping area.  There wouldn’t be a third.

In the several months that followed the conclusion of this attempted ambushing and siege against Inisfree, all the dragons that had returned to the surface of the Earth were unleashed, and they began taking their time burning their ways across every human-occupied area, leaving nothing but blackened charred remains, even of the state-sized mega-cities.  Even if the humans hadn’t lost 99% of their military forces by trying to attack Inisfree, those forces still wouldn’t have been able to do much against the encroaching dragons; the Inisfreeans still would have deployed their higher technologies and disabled or otherwise taken all the human forces out.  The humans in charge of nuclear missile complexes soon noticed their systems, too, had been rendered inoperable; they were ‘sitting ducks’.

A planet-wide evacuation of every human who hadn’t already left as part of the Secret Space Programs was hastily begun, but all it amounted to was random people rushing all the starships while they were still on the ground, fighting into them until they were above capacity, and being burned and clawed back out of them as the stragglers of those fleeing ships all got rushed and ripped apart by final advance of the dragons.  Again, aircraft and bodies rained from the skies, this time around the whole planet.  Many of those bodies got eaten whole before they ever made it to the ground.

If that wasn’t enough, the Inisfreeans met with the representatives and leaders of all the lands and other realms compatible and allied with them; everyone loyal to The Inisfreean Way sensed and agreed it was time for the next pole-shift, and so they figured out how they could protect their peoples while executing a sudden tilting and stopping of the Earth –enough to cause mile-tall waves and 1,000-MPH winds; enough to wipe away even the skyscraper-blanketed regions of the humans’ mega-cities, or, at least, cover them in water, mud, and sand.  Once everyone was to safety, and all the good peoples notified and noted, the pole-shift began, and it felt like the earth everywhere was trembling, …and then it stopped.  …The crust had moved as one, and the stopping of that movement resulted every body of water continuing to move as the land had been; the rivers, lakes, seas, and oceans all kept going, while the atmosphere did its own thing, all three of them no longer acting as one.

Antarctica was now at the top of the world; its center was the new North Pole.  The mile-tall tidal-waves had passed over much of the other continents, as well as over many parts of Antarctica, freeing it of most of the last ice that still remained.  By the time it all settled, the Earth was fairly difficult to recognize –even from Space.

Don’t try to ambush the Inisfreeans.
