"The northern King? Indeed it is troubling that his borders have come further and further south since last year. I've heard of the rumors and I still remember what his father attempted, it was the reason I paid those mercenaries. Mercenaries that your people killed." The old Lord said. He had a big gray beard and belly to match.

The Chancellor and his escort returned to the town.

The town returned fire. On their eastern battlements, two catapults fired at the army bellow. Along the walls, mages and archers shot arrows and spells at their foes.

The army of 500 that had gathered in Fort Mistwatch left the fort, heading to Amol.

The Old Holds combined army of 1000 soldiers were now all heading to the town, from both the west and east.

(@Sunny: It is a town. Also, since it is a coastal town, I assume you mean semi circle. Unless your people can walk on water. xD)

When the retreat was ordered, the men of West Guard felt the surge of adrenaline from their small victory and cheered as they shot at the retreating soldiers. Those still on the wall did not find it easy to retreat back down the stairs they came. Nearly all of those soldiers ended up dead on the battlements and fell to their death. Both sides suffered losses, though the town suffered fewer.

Building large quantities of siege weapons would take time, time that West Guard would take to improve their defenses in any way they could and prepare. Because West Guard was a port town that traded regularly with places like Belport, they had more than enough food to last them a few months.
