The Battle of Small Tower was a battle between the Crown of Renatus-Marna and the Reiver mercenaries on 13th of the Grand Harvest, 1665. The battle was a suprising victory for the Reivers despite being outnumbered more than two to one, and it allowed them to continue living on their lands.

Prelude

Lord Aragon Silversteed, Baron of Arbor under Renatus-Marna, had seen an opportunity to attack the Reivers' lands and attempt to take their tower closest to his barony of Arbor. To do so he alerted his liege, Aurelius Horen, alongside various other vassals of the crown to unite in eradicating the Reivers from their lands. The Reivers utilized their many connections to call in other friends to their defense; one of which overheard the plans to march on the tower from two Renatian drunkards in a tavern. This friend going by the name of Luis Carderra would rush to the aid of the Reivers, bringing many of the brigands and mercenaries he knew to the tower. With no time to spare they funneled into Small Tower as the sounds of the Renatian army's march came down the road.
