Preparing for an Enemy Invasion

Nearly a week had passed from the fateful battle in which the Austrian Army under the command of Duke Wilmar was horrendously defeated by the Bavarians. Count Otto had maintained his army's march back to Graz, where he intended to defend his home and family until death.
