Stalemate in the Mali Empire Part II

Word immediately reached both Lukas' and Ghazis' ears, who were both surprised to see that each other's forces were present in the Mali Empire, which they had both set their eyes upon. Blood had been spilled already, and this incident could easily turn into something significant. 

Perhaps this was the first test that the von Kufstein bloodline would have, with so many of its men being world rulers in their own right. However, both sides maintained level heads, and ordered their troops to stand down until a proper negotiation could take place between the two monarchs. 

Thus, for the time being, what remained of the Mali Empire after getting attacked on two fronts was able to gain some respite, but it would clearly not be enough to save their fledgling civilization.
