In Alinor
Elledan appointed Elrohir, his brother, as regent as well as a handful of Elledans trusted royal councillors. A great wave of excitement rushed over Alinor. Papers reading titles like "Armies assembling to fight the Aurean kingdoms" "Call to arms!" and more starkly, "WAR IN CYRODIIL" were being pinned to message boards all over the city, and it was quickly being spread to the other cities and towns too.

A meeting of great independant mages took place in Phaer, on the island of Auridon, to discuss what action to take. 50 of the 140 great mages decided to fight for Elledan, the others deemed the war irrelevent and so returned to their holds and castles.

Battlereeve Elledan drew up Alinor's 2nd, Sunhold's 3rd, Lillandril's 1st, Haven's 1st, Senchal's 1st and Corinth's 1st battalions, forming the first army. A total of about 20'000 mer and Khajit were due to rendevous in eastern Valenwood. This was nicknamed the 'army of the Eagle.'

The second army was to be assembled in northern Elsweyr. Dusk's 1st and 2nd (Elledan's own regiments), Skywatch's 2nd, Eldenroots's 1st, Falenesti's 2nd and 3rd, Torval's 1st and Rimmen's 1st battalions were ordered to meet there at once, totalling about the same as the first army. This was nicknamed the 'army of the jaguar.'

Each army had scores of great mages, warriors, renowned bowmen and lightening fast geurilla soldiers camped side by side.

Elledan waited in Valenwood for orders from King Eradhril.
