The Rebels Take Du'mra

Military: Battle

Although the rebels had lost their most likely leader in the execution only 2 years prior, they were quick to reorganize themselves and set off to Du'mra.

When the execution was staged Strovil Mithrilbrand IV had taken most of his troops back to the capital to defend it against the expected riot. This had resulted in the successful expulsion of the rebels from the capital but had weakened his hold on the other fortifications, key among which was Du'mra. This fort guarded the main trade route out of the kingdom now that the Savage Isles were embroiled in too much war to make it a stable trading partner.   So when the king learned that the fort was under siege he sent a large portion of his army to trap the rebels. They were too late however as the siege had been quickly decided by the clever use of sappers and generally low morale in the fort.
