5th of Second Seed

The survivors had difficulty setting the wood on fire. Northern Skyrim was had a damp climate and the wood was somewhat damp, not ideal for setting on fire. It didn't help that, in order to get close enough for fire arrows and firebolt spells, they had to withstand a hail of more than a thousand arrows a minute - even with cover, they were still dropping like flies.

11th of Second Seed

The Countess was suspicious of the incoming army - she found it unlikely Skingrad had fallen in about a week, but at the same time, she knew that the army wouldn't want to leave a job half done. She sent an envoy to parley with the army.

10th of Midyear

Haven had stationed their army in Cornmeir, so they would be able to march to the ambush site quickly. They arrived a few days later, and set up camp about an hour's march from the ambush spot, to ensure the smoke from the camp would not give them away.
