A force comprised of Ferrymen and soldiers of the Kingdom of Norland struck into territory of the Holy Orenian Empire. Four hundred soldiers from the Orenian Ministry of Justice left Providence on their own accord to meet with the Ferrymen, looking to disperse the gathering on the bridge to Providence.
After a short battle in which half the Ministry forces were killed, two prominent members of the Ministry of Justice were captured. A canonist priest was given safe passage to give them their last rites, after which they were summarily hung from the bridge.
