The sights of the walls had made Selena anxious. The earlier reports talked of far less impressive fortifications, the time in which such great infrastructure could be erected was a source of awe in itself. But she did not let any of that deter her. Never had she foreseen herself in a siege, much less leading one on the attacking side, but the damning accounts she had received had made up her mind. Such a nation had no place within the westgardian ecumen.

With greater numbers of more experienced nobles leading more skilled troops, the walls ended up largely irrelevant. Guided by the Virtudes, Westgard prevailed, in this challenge as through all the others. By the time the last defenders were sniped off, the gates opened, and crowds of sympathizers cheered the arrival of the Lightbearers into the city. Caravans full of supplies followed the army with its victory march, as they went to set up camp within its walls. Greater crowds converged there.

"They slaughtered my livestock!"

"They beat up my sons!"

"They stole our grain!"

"They took our daughters!"

Cries for help were relentless. Selena struggled to hold back her tears. If the city had grown so fast, it was because so many had fled the countryside to escape the reign of horrors the tolian armies inflicted there. She stood up on a table to address the crowd.

"People... fellow occidentals. I come here with a heavy heart. Hundreds were taken out just earlier, and I bear heavy regret as their loss weighs upon me. But I have heard your plights. I had heard of them, but now, I see it with my own eyes, I hear your stories from your own mouths. And all I can say... is that my greatest regret of all, is not having been able to arrive sooner. To put an end to this barbarism before it even got this far. I... I truly am sorry. But today, that savagery ends. The world needs no longer doubt. Westgard warned them all that we would protect the citizens of the North-West. And now, we are acting on that promise. These barbarians came and marauded your regions, and soon there will be nothing left of their savagery here. Your Shield has arrived. Occidens to Occidentals!"

And with that, the crowd roared in applause, and various relief goods starting being distributed to the pupulace.
