The emissaries turn down the offer, and quickly leave.

Seeing the bay as a strategic point to hold, Calero and his best tacticians organize a campaign based around taking it.

800 men are marched to an area just outside Ebon Stadmont and are told to wait there for the time being. Several Osprey are sent from Alinor into the bay, armed to the teeth with a capable crew and powerful weaponry, and sailed near the shore of Ebon Stadmont, so that the townspeople can see them. Once they've arrived, the 800 men will then surround the village, and an emissary will be sent in asking for them to peacefully join Alinor to assist in rebuilding the once great Summerset Isles, proposing all the points previously proposed to the other towns and villages. If they refuse, the emissary will then tell them that they have the entire village surrounded, and outnumbered greatly, and that refusal will lead to bloodshed that's unwanted by the both of them. If they continue to disagree, the Osprey will open-fire and the soldiers will move in. Ebon Stadmont, as a village, couldn't fight against the army of a city-state such as Alinor. With only 300 soldiers under their control they stood no chance. The Lord of the village hesitantly surrendered.
