Quoted By:
It was decided that night that you would remain here, behind the palisades and earthworks which you had been working on for so long.
If the relief force remained under the assumption that the castle still held, they would most certainly come for you.
In the meantime, you thus dismantled the inner line of the fortifications so as to allow your troops more breathing space should the outer walls be breached.
Here you would have your old siege weapon to help you as well, and the knowledge that you were well-prepared for whatever may come next.
When they finally arrived, the Svengalians didn't really seem certain of what to do; their castle was in ruins, circumvented by another impromptu wooden wall, behind which stood the soldier of the nation that had been thumbing them for the better course of the war.
At first, they seemed hesitant and uncertain of what to do; they had already failed in at least their primary objective, namely that the castle should be relieved from your siege.
But nevertheless, they formed themselves up in lines, intending to breach the walls on the northern side. You had the men formed up to counter this march; soon enough the two would clash once more.
