With the mages in position, Jarl Harald finally called the attack. They had long since lost the element of surprise so he sounded war-horns to signify the vanguard's advance.

Jarl Harald and his men marched out in shield wall formation, their round shields held out over their heads to protect from enemy volley fire. Their march was slow and cautious, waiting for the elves to make their move.

Nesiro called out to the archers as he saw the humans coming out of the trees. "Ready!"

The elven archers notched their arrows.

Karyor could see their bows glimmer with magical energies.

"Aim!" Nesiro ordered.

The elven archers aimed through the arrow slits in the wooden wall that covered the battlements.

"The battle plan?" Randagulf asked. "We know little of the enemy's fortress, our scouts were only able to discern its location beside the River Treva. The plan is to sail there on longboats and land near the fortress. From there we shall see what awaits us." Randagulf replied.

Eventually enough longboats were completed that the Atmorans could set sail. All but one ship, Skorm's, headed for the elven fortress of Vetudar.

Skorm took a single longship and 30 men from Morvunskar with him to Nimalten. He headed there to deliver Harald's letter to the city's Jarl.
