With the Sintian armies still recovering from the Chase to Tor, Thalmarkin and Fronen attacked the stronghold of Vatrona for a second time. Despite outnumbering the defenders twofold, a lack of siege engines would prove fatal. Repeatedly the Fronenese infantry was thrown back from the walls. Only one company managed to gain a foothold on the ramparts, but even they were eventually overwhelmed. Although High Marshal Askarn Iltaran was badly wounded, the Army of Old Grehk emerged victorious.
