(@Red and Sunny: Regular ladders are one thing. Siege ladders are huge, large enough to scale the several feet tall walls of villages and forts. It takes quite a few people to even carry such ladders, as they are also quite heavy.

@Sunny: Nah, but...

@Daedra: It isn't really an issue but I feel like the correct date for arrying in Dragon Glade would be around the 18th, especially with the slow moving catapults. Thus I am going to reply accordingly if you don't mind. Also, Dragon Glade is a town, not a village.

@Pacman: Going with the standard that I set for Skyrim's noble ranks it would actually be a Lord. I feel Thanes should be a bit stronger, ruiling towns instead of villages.)

~15th of Morning Star

The guards outside the Lord's Longhouse called to the Bosmer and his party when they approached. "Please leave your men outside if you wish to speak to our Lord."

The horn certainly caught the attention of Dragon Glade. The patrollers on the walls gathered to see the source of the noise and subsequently informed their Musera, who joined the men at the walls.

The Dunmer wasn't stupid, he knew that there must be more soldiers close by when he spotted the general and his 50 mages. He had heard of the men of Necrom having taken Fort Draloris to the south, so he guessed what they wanted with his town.

He sent a small envoy to meet the general, led by his own Chancellor.

King Korst arrived in Whiterun with his army. He didn't care enough for the Jarl to go personally with the half-dozen men he sent to give her the gold he promissed.

The group rode up to the gates with the chests of gold and were let through into the city, where they were escorted by the guards to Dragonsreach.

<p style="font-weight:normal;">As soon as the ships were spotted in the horizon, the men of West Guard began to mobilize, having informed their Baron of the coming fleet. While Firsthold was able to blockade the town's port rather quickly, it took a few hours to build the necessary ladders to scale the town's walls. By then the guards had already mobilized.

<p style="font-weight:normal;">Ballistae atop of watchtowers on each side of the port fired at the Seahawks, while archers and mages on the wall shot arrows and spells at the men bringing the ladders.
