Once the gates were opened, a soldier inside gestured for him to follow.

He lead the messenger all the way to the Commander's quarters.

"Sir, a message for you. From Knight-Commander Doraleous." The soldier said.

"Doraleous?" Ivo was rather surprised. Like everyone he had thought Doraleous dead already. He turned to the messenger. "Give it here."

"Reinforcements!" Jovron heard a guard yell.

Indeed, the Ondre and Eardwulf forces that had yet to arrive just did. They stormed the castle and struck at the Bouchards from the rear, breaking their formation apart.

The castle courtyard turned into an all out melee. Because of the flanking manuever, the Bouchards suffered heavy losses and made the fight now even for both sides.

During the fighting, Rallaume charged at Jovron, wanting to kill the bastard king. "No matter what happens, you die here today!" He yelled and lunged at the half-elf.

Jovron blocked his first attack, but Rallaume was fast. His dual daggers and light armor made him extremely light on his feet. He sidestepped Jovron's counter attack and stabbed the King in the arm with his right dagger.

Jovron winced from the pain. He had instictively used his left arm to block the dagger from reaching his face. Better in my arm than in my head. He thought.

Rallaume didn't wait for a follow up, he quickly brought his other dagger, going to stab Jovron in the chest.

However, his hit was deflected.

"I will not let another Stentor be killed by a Bouchard." Jeanne said, having deflected the blow with Oathkeeper.

"Queen Jeanne, what a surprise. It seems you just traded one brother of the other." He said, smirking.

"Don't you dare say something like that." She said, angry. She truly had loved Rob. She kicked him, away from Jovron.

Jov moved back, his arm bleeding.

"Stay behind me." Jeanne said. "I'll deal with him."
