Even if they ended up winning this battle, the city was ruined. There were tons of work left for everyone to do. And to make the city shine again, it needed the help of everyone.
William estimated that the rebuilding project of this city would take long days, even weeks, before the city would return like it used to be. Yet he knew they didn't lose that much.
The city just got cleaned from its useless masters and dirty weeds. As long as the main pillars of the city remained intact, which were most of the city walls, part of the defences, the entirety of the portal zone, and the Lost City, then things were going to be fine.

Grand building projects started in the city. And during which, lots of meetings happened between the new higher ups of it.
