An army was quickly assembled.
Five thousand strong soldiers quickly marched south under the leadership of Wilmot Aymer.
Departing from Balkes, these soldiers were fully equipped, well-trained, and brimming with eagerness to finally see some action.
This would be their first operation since the war had concluded, and they were itching to make their mark.
It only took them a short amount of time to reach the intersection of two roads.
An officer inquired, "Should we split, General?"
"Hmm," Thoughtfully rubbing his chin, Wilmot fell into a moment of deep contemplation.
To the right, the road led to Dalfos while the path straight ahead, on the other hand, led to Vofors.
Both places were embroiled in the throes of unrest, riots and secession movement.
Eventually, Wilmot made his decision. "Let's go to Vofors," he stated.
In his estimation, Vofors was the more vulnerable of the two cities.
