It had been a long time since the Kinshra reigned in Misthalin, though it seemed this dull morning was to be the end of that. In the early hours, the banner of Lord William Skeat was hoisted above the town and a column of men marched down from the snowy mountains to take residence within the town. Oddly, they did not come as an invading force but as honoured guests – shocked onlookers able to see the shaking hands between senior officers and prominent towns members.
Despite their peaceful arrival, the occupying forces set at once to the labour of entrenching themselves within the territory, creating palisades and cavalry traps with which to repel any who sought their removal. While the new garrison dug in, the town would be temporarily shut to all travel - in or out.
The Kinshra had gained a new foothold.
We come here with no peaceful intent, but ready for battle, determined to avenge our wrongs and set our country free.
