Military action
Thrane levies and Karrnathi knights pushed from opposite sides, converging once again on Eston
Taking advantage of Cyre’s succession woes, the combined army laid seige to Eston. The Karrns, perhaps mindful of Thrane’s abandonment of the first Eston siege, felt no remorse when they were recalled mid-campaign to repel a renewed Aundairian invasion. During the confusion of the Karrnathi withdrawal, Aerenal mercenaries surged from the fortress and won the day for Cyre, driving King Thalin’s armies back to Aruldusk in full retreat.
