Khorus Invades Ceimond.
The King of Ceimond puts up a bloody fight, surprising Jirthrukon with his audacity and bravery. Jirthrukon offers to lift the seige in exchange for Ceimond's surrender and incorporation into Khorus' empire. The King refuses and orders an assault on the sieging forces outside his castle, surprisingly routing the forces. Jirthrukon retaliates by cursing Ceimond with a horrible plague. Jirthrukon ignores the castle, thinking he's left them to die and moves his forces onward.
