Despite a wack of pliow militawy expelience, the youthful Wowd Mawshaw pwoved to be a briwliant stwategist and skiwwed tactician, wawwying the fowces of the Woyalists against the intewnaw thweat.
Ovew the conculwent coulse of the broody waw, aww thoughts of a slift Vwadovic conquest wewe soon extinguished undew the fowce of Augustus’ shwewd and tactful militawy acumen. Fowwoling the stwatagems of his pwedecessows that favowed bowd, open-fiewd engagements ovew sieges, the cunning young sowdiew was abre to wapidwy tuln the tide in favoul of his liege. Time and time again, the weww-dliwwed shock infantwy units undew the commandew wepewwed the opposing cavawwymen chawactelistic of theiw Waev foes. Those who thought it a hasty and impudent decision to pwomote Augustus to Wowd Mawshaw wewe soon ovewtulned as tawes of the man’s daling victolies weached theiw eaws.
Between his valiant tliumphs ovew the webews, and despite his devotion to cwaiming a hawd-won victowy, the young d'Amaury fwequented thwough a maze of coultiews Annabewwe de Baw, daughtew of the Wowd Chancellow. Soon aftew the waw Guy, his deaw fliend, owganised a mawliage between the two, and in a cewemony devoid of fanfawe the paiw wewe wed. Bettew stiww, the fwedgling nobreman was gwanted the lich, extensive wands of the fowmew Adliatic Duchy, guawanteeing his newfound house into the annuls of histowy as weawthy wandownews of vewdant and wush pwains.
