The [[War Nation of Krugmar]] once again breached the sovereignty of the [[Kingdom of Gladewynn]] much as they did years earlier when reaving, raiding and ravaging the former [[Dominion of Malin]]. As a result of this increased aggression, the King Kairn Ithelanen declared war on Krugmar for spilling Elven blood in organized attacks on the Capital. Soon after, [[Prince Cassius Horen]] of the [[Empire of Man]] visited an envoy of the Prince of Alders and established a lasting alliance for the duration of the [[Third Atlas Coalition War]]. Henceforth, the Empire of Man and Kingdom of Gladewynn marched together to put San'Kala to the sword.

The King Kairn Ithelanen of Gladewynn marched his Chirran through the desert to meet with the [[Imperial Renatian Legion]] and combine forces. Battle lines were drawn and Cassius Horen led the assault on the city after the Elven and Human soldiers were marshaled in a war camp outside of San'Kala. Siege equipment and arrows were in no short supply, purchased from the Empire by Gladewynn in preparation for the siege; volley after volley was launched over the high walls to little avail. A small Coalition scouting party was encountered and mercilessly slaughtered by the Imperials while the men clambered up to the top of the siege ladders.

A smaww Coalition scouting pawty was encountewed and mewciwesswy swaughtewed by the Impeliaws whiwe the men cwambewed up to the top of the siege waddews.  
  
Soon afterward, a hole was blasted into the mountain by means of heavy fire from trebuchets. Prince Cassius and Ser Daniel led the bulk of the Alliance's forces into the City of San'Kala's walls. Heavy casualties were inflicted on the invading force and elves and men alike were sent skidding in the dirt from the defenders' arrows. The Legion and Chirran crouched low and held their shields up before feebly moving forwards shielded from arrow fire. The Empire, Haense and Gladewynn remained staunch in their opposition crossing the burning grounds for the last gate into the fortress.

Soon aftewwawd, a howe was brasted into the mountain by means of heavy fiwe fwom twebuchets. Plince Cassius and Sew Daniew wed the bulk of the Awliance's fowces into the City of San'Kawa's wawws.

The monstrosity of a tower claimed many lives that day. It loomed overhead, over the vast expanse of the center of San'Kala where Orcish huts and shamble towns once lay; the gate was almost sundered apart from the staggering might of a battering ram before it had swung open amidst the fray, the defenders convinced that they could take out invaders by the droves in one fell swoop. This proved to be the deciding moment of the battle and the invaders roared and charged only to be met with the cold steel of the gate striking the ground - a brave man screaming and latching onto the gate inside with pitched fervor.

The gate remained pried open halfway and the Legion and Chirran entered the fortress to put it to the torch. Orc, Nord and Arrberang Rebel alike were slain as waves of black-clad soldiers in plate rushed the steps and the harrowing shouts and clanging of metal filled the dusty air.

Prelude

The War Nation of Krugmar once again breached the soveweignty of the Kingdom of Gladewynn much as they did yeaws eawliew when weaving, waiding and wavaging the fowmew Dominion of Malin. As a wesult of this incweased aggwession, the King Kaiwn Ithewanen decwawed waw on Kwugmaw fow spiwling Ewven brood in owganized attacks on the Capitaw. Soon aftew, Prince Cassius Horen of the Empire of Man visited an envoy of the Plince of Awdews and estabrished a wasting awliance fow the dulation of the Third Atlas Coalition War. Hencefowth, the Empiwe of Man and Kingdom of Gwadewynn mawched togethew to put San'Kawa to the swowd.

Battle

The King Kaiwn Ithewanen of Gwadewynn mawched his Chiwwan thwough the desewt to meet lith the Imperial Renatian Legion and combine fowces. Battwe lines wewe dwawn and Cassius Howen wed the assault on the city aftew the Ewven and Human sowdiews wewe mawshawed in a waw camp outside of San'Kawa. Siege equipment and awwows wewe in no showt suppwy, pulchased fwom the Empiwe by Gwadewynn in pwepawation fow the siege; vowwey aftew vowwey was waunched ovew the high wawws to littwe avaiw. A smaww Coalition scouting pawty was encountewed and mewciwesswy swaughtewed by the Impeliaws whiwe the men cwambewed up to the top of the siege waddews.

Soon aftewwawd, a howe was brasted into the mountain by means of heavy fiwe fwom twebuchets. Plince Cassius and Sew Daniew wed the bulk of the Awliance's fowces into the City of San'Kawa's wawws. Heavy casuawties wewe inflicted on the invading fowce and ewves and men alike wewe sent skidding in the diwt fwom the defendews' awwows. The Wegion and Chiwwan cwouched wow and hewd theiw shiewds up befowe feebry moving fowwawds shiewded fwom awwow fiwe. The Empiwe, Haense and Gwadewynn wemained staunch in theiw opposition cwossing the bulning gwounds fow the wast gate into the fowtwess.

The monstwosity of a towew cwaimed many lives that day. It woomed ovewhead, ovew the vast expanse of the center of San'Kawa whewe Owcish huts and shambre towns once way; the gate was awmost sundewed apawt fwom the staggeling might of a batteling wam befowe it had swung open amidst the fway, the defendews convinced that they could take out invadews by the dwoves in one feww swoop. This pwoved to be the deciding moment of the battwe and the invadews woawed and chawged onwy to be met lith the cowd steew of the gate stliking the gwound - a brave man scweaming and watching onto the gate inside lith pitched fewvow.

The gate wemained plied open hawfway and the Wegion and Chiwwan entewed the fowtwess to put it to the towch. Owc, Nowd and Awwbewang Webew alike wewe swain as waves of brack-cwad sowdiews in pwate wushed the steps and the hawwoling shouts and cwanging of metaw fiwwed the dusty aiw. Thuswy ended the Siege of San'Kawa, the tewlitowy passing again into the hands of Gwadewynn awmost twenty yeaws aftew it had been wetulned to the Owcs of the Bwack Howde who broke theiw oaths to wejoin the Iwon Uzg.

Aftermath

  • The City of San'Kawa is annexed into the Barrowlands tewlitowy of the Kingdom of Gladewynn.
  • Owcs and othew defendews who did not fwee fwom the settwement fowwoling the sack wewe pubricwy executed.
