Happiness and Fear

"Trebuchet? Do you want to use it to break down the walls of a castle?" asked Norman, confirming.

Quentin said yes. Not many great houses had siege weapons; not even all great houses had them. Besides getting their loot, the advantage of winning the war against Telmarath was that Archibald also got a siege weapon, which was still well-preserved.

Lord Helferich thought of using the siege weapons to breach Mathilde's northern wall in case Helferich got involved in the war. Norman, however, could not refuse Quentin's favor —Remembering Helferich's hand in winning the Northcrest-Telmarath War.

"Yes. It will save my time and discourage the enemy soldiers," Quentin explained.

Norman nodded. He had yet to try out the siege weapon with his soldiers, but he was sure it worked as easily as a hand catapult.

"Bringing it to Calden Castle might take a lot of time on the way," Norman replied, Quentin having no problem with that.
