Taner Sagg Pov:

Have you heard the Reinmakers are mobilizing their troops and tightening their borders? There are many rumors surrounding that province right now I pointed at the reports my brother was reading. " I hear they have been betrayed by the Drakks and are furious, but they have no evidence it was them only the fact that his uncle was heavily discipline by Don Drakk after the young master Ain Reinmakers return from failed rescue attempt of their sons. The Drakks lost a lot of men during those battles and the Reinmakers drained them more by recruiting from their populous, maybe it is the time to invite the Reinmakers as partners what do you think.

"Presti, lets send some delegates to the Reinmakers and see if they want to form a partnership with us, we have been trying to get rid of the Drakks for years now." I wickedly smiled at him and he snickers at me, "this is a perfect opportunity, if we can gain a strong ally such as the Reinmakers we could also maybe push the Entnener out of the way". I knew this was eventually gonna be the downfall of the Drakks, such a savage family will eventually fall from grace, one way or another.

Aline Drakks pov:

Father this is bad , they think you killed Derekk Reinmaker and that province is in an uproar. They have rectruited more than eight hundred men and they have more than two hundred standing veteran army that beat the Toroch, what should we do? "My father just laugh "It is just a show of force, the Reinmakers don't have what it takes to rebel against their patron. " "Father this worries me though", my sister wryly said worryingly. "Fine daughters ,we will send some delegates and force to find out what happened and to reel them back in, is that fine?" , I volunteer and I immediately stood up. "I will go with you" My mother immediately stood by me. She has not gotten over the lost of her sons and me of my brothers but we have to be tactful on the way we handle this for the Reinmakers have assembled a force that can rein havoc against our army this time. Me and my mother hastily left to assemble a force.

Ian Reimaker pov:

It has been four months since the assassination of my uncle, we have tighten our borders at the same time bough every necessities we could . The recruits are almost ready and with a substantial force the there were a new positions to be added the" lieutenants". I decided to promote my sergeants to lieutenants and some of my soldiers that I find promising to sergeants to give them a battlefield overview experience. I also wanted to give my sister a battlefield overview so i decided that she will given a position in the army but for her safety I filled her ranks with my veteran soldiers for I trust them and they love me, I would not have to worry about anything as long as they are with her, I also instructed them to guide my sister in decision making and they gladly accepted. The Agropolis started to boom and below us a small makeshift town was being build, hundreds of people were starting to move into our territory. It was a grand scenery a new beginning for us all, and as soon as possible we are breaking of our previous engagement with the Drakks and start our own city. " My lord" a guard rushed towards me , "there are report of a contingency of Drakks and Saggs headed our way. "The Saggs?" we have no dealings with them, they must smell an opportunity , I smiled. " Call the commanders, it seems a welcoming committee is needed", I hastily told the guard and he left as soon as he arrived. "I have something to showcase to both of them and this is the perfect opportunity for both of them, I think I am getting the hang of this lord stuff as I looked over the horizon dreaming of a better future for me.

"HALT!, WHO GOES THERE!" A large number of cavalries intercepted my Retinue and Interrogated us. "It was indead memorable, I saw how discipline these troops were. The soldiers were apparently instructed to guide us, but they directed us into different path, not towards the Reinmarkers agropolis but into a little hill overseeing a clearing. "My brother Pristio and I tried to persuade the Reinmakers troops to guide us straight into the city but they refused, saying that they were instructed to do this and should wait. A couple minutes later I saw a small army with the alligator banner, It was the Drakks army and as I contemplate there was a large arrow that landed out of nowhere with the Drakks army. A massive army came out of nowhere , from the forest of the clearing and savagely started attacking the Drakks. The Drakks started to maneuver the front of their army to create a wall, but as more of those massive arrows started to fall it created massive confusion among the front ranks as it would penetrate the soldier in the front and at least two in the back. The drakks were having problems I though "Then units of crossbowman as I have heard of them started marching towards the enemy supported by spear-men at the side and archers in the back. The hail of arrows started to fall among the Drakks and those who survived were shot by the crossbowmen the small arrows going thru their shields and penetrating the person. Then on either side of the Drakks the Reinmakers cavalry with spears and bows showed up and immediately attacked the flanks which in them were supported by the spear-men at the front and a massacred ensued afterwards. I saw a few enemy troops here and there trying to rally but to no avail, once someone tried to rally troops they were immediately targeted. I was in shock and awe of the effectiveness of the Reinmakers and though we are here to make a deal with demons among men.
