Capturing Luxembourg

The moment the first light entered the sky, the Austrian Artillery, which was entrenched within the borders of the siege camp, fired upon the city of Luxembourg's multiple gatehouses. The thunder of the shots resounded in the air, and thoroughly awoke all within the vicinity, including the young king of Austria himself. 

Having been awakened by the sound of combat, Berengar rubbed his weary eyes before taking a sip from the wine chalice that sat atop his bed stand. After taking a small gulp of his liquid courage, the monarch rose from his bed, and dressed himself in his battle attire. 

Considering that he was on the European mainland, Berengar wore a black and gold uniform, with gilded epaulettes, and a black lacquered Cuirass. His helmet was in the fashion of the royal guard. In other words, it was a blackened steel pickelhaube with a black plume atop its spike.
