[The Citadels]
Just as Lord Grim had expected, the Citadels were under attack by the mercenary clones created by the Yrrejites. All eight Citadels were under siege, and from the looks of it, the Granians were slowly inching toward defeat.
The mercenary numbers were overwhelmingly large, too large for the Granians to go on the offensive. For the sake of the work their laborers had put in, all eight Citadels with Granians had initiated defensive measures by taking refuge behind the sturdy walls of the fortresses on all Citadels.
Thankfully, Lord Grim and his army, consisting of slightly less than twenty thousand units, had arrived just in time to help. Despite this, however, it was going to be challenging to move forces from one Citadel to another with the risk of being blown into deep space. Their forces, though large, were too precious to risk moving from one Citadel to the other.
