~25th of Frostfall

The Wards and Shields at the sides of the men protected only a little bit, as the archers and mages of Firsthold were on the hills above them, firing down. Volley after Volley of spells went down into the center of the invaders, causing many casualties.

The archers and mages continued to disappear before the atronachs could reach them, as they knew the area much better than any daedra. As the mages at the sides were occupied with their wards, other mages in the center would have to summon the atronachs, so the atronachs would trample Skywatch soldiers as they charged out to get to the enemies.

Similarly, the more mages that focused on sending Atronachs that didn't have to trample through the Skywatch army to even get to the hills, the fewer mages there were to deal with the traps, and more Skywatch soldiers fell to the runes.

The Black Hoods found a store room that was completely undefended, as the Thane had called all the men away to keep the soldiers of Riften out of their town.
