Geldheim attack repelled in lands west of Moridale

Military: Battle

Kingdom of Geldheim forces attempt to advance West towards Moridale in what would prove to be a catatrosphic defeat.
At the same time the Duke of Moridale commences his plan for his own expansion of power

The advance had been swift and unexpected. Seeking to capitalise on the Empire's withdrawal from the Vespili River, the Kingdom rallied and attacked again, hoping to catch the Empire unaware and resting on its laurels. Desperately seeking to parry the numerically superior Kingdom, local militias and a handful of Imperial troops have prepared an ambush along the line of march, hoping to trap the Kingdom's vanguard against the southern shores of Lake Moridale.
More to research but Hadovean Victory

The fighting had been bloody, and its outcome devastating for the Kingdom. Thier forces loosing heavily and forced to retreat back to Wydowr Poddle. The Hadovean involvement was at the behest of the Duke of Moridale, which at the time was only a small Duchy around the city of Moridale. This point in time is widely beleived to be moment the now Duke of Moridale commenced his plan to expand his power and authority over Moridale and the neighourby duchies and baronies. Underprepared, the Kingdom was unable to penetrate the hastily put-together defences of the local baronies, and Imperial support had arrived nonetheless, resulting in a reserval of the Kingdom advance.
