It was nighttime when the war horns began blowing in Jehanna.

Jovron jumped out of his bed. "The Bouchards." He muttered and immediately began putting on his armor.

At the city limits, the guards on the walls were firing down at the approaching army.

The Bouchards kept their shields up, protecting themselves from the incoming fire.

"When they get close enough start throwing down rocks, it will knock down their shields." One of the guard said.

They kept themselves protected by the battlement's pertrusions so they wouldn't be hit by incoming fire from Bouchard archers.

At the castle, Duke Cirges was quick to rise and was already gathering the defenses. "Should the city gatehouse fall the guards will fall back here. We must be ready." He said.

The porculis was put down and the castle guards were equipped with bows and arrows.

Jovron soon joined Cirges at the walls. "What is the situation?"

"Rallaume has led his force in a surprise attack at night." Cirges relayed. "If it wasn't for the lookouts we left patrolling the outer walls we would've been caught by complete surprise. Luckily they sounded the alarm and closed the gatehouse."

"Damn it all. Lady Darene and Lord Weylin still haven't returned. Darene at least should've been here by now." Jov muttered.

"Do you think they abandoned us?" Cirges asked.

"Not sure. After what the Bouchards did to them...I find that unlikely. I'll tell Louis to send out two more ravens to tell them of this attack." Jov said and went off.
