~24th of Sun's Height

Celanar knew that by now the defenders would have quite the defenses set up, and shied away from the storming option. Instead, he left 85 soldiers and the Sculptors there and took the other 700  and the onagers back to Elden Root. The Sculptor's would block the entrances and windows to trap the defenders in. The soldiers held the walls in the unlikely event of a counter attack, operating without the fort's main building. The soldiers tried to remedy the situation by constructing shelters with the help of the Sculptors.

~30th of Sun's Height

Celanar arrived in Elden Root's siege camp, bringing the total soldier numbers to 1700. He estimated 500 defenders, but waited for Thalnos's more accurate total from the inside.

~2nd of Last Seed

Patrolling soldiers spotted an arrow with a paper tied to the shaft lodged in the no-man's land between wall and siege line. After fetching mages to bring the arrow in with telekinesis, the note was from the Master of Subterfuge with the information his network had gathered in it's stay in the embattled city.
