The battle had now officially begun. The mages had gotten close enough to most Imperial troops so their guns and flintlocks would have been useless and they needed to resort to melee weapons. like swords.

The sound of shields and blades shattering could be heard across the entire county. Blood started to run down the hill.

Steel vs Conjured swords

Guns vs ranged magic attacks.

it all seemed to go on pretty even. Untill illusion mages had surrounded a hugechunk of Imperial troops. And attacked them from the flanks and the back. They had no chance.

"Commander, we have Fort Farragut."

"Excelent. But it's Cheydinhal we want. Vivec's council was very clear"

"Yes commander"

The imperials now had fallen back into the city. The city walls being the only thing keeping them safe. The streets were practically desterted. All but a few guards. Who joined the legion in one last stand.

A standard imperial formation had formed by the west gate, 5 men kneeling and keeping their shields horizontal and 5 with guns shooting between the gaps. They managed to kill some more mages, but the truth of the matter was simply that they were overwhelmed. As the horde of mages started running for smaller camps the Imperials almost all immediatly held their hands up. Hoping their life would be spared.

The legate had escaped with a horse convoy and headed for the Imperial City, west.

Cheydinhal was now part of the Adamantine Empire.

In the city itself, straggling imperial soldiers were dealth with. As Dunmer in Battlemage armour flooded the city. keeping the flags of Adamantine Morrowind high and appealing the people for calm. Telling them liberation was at hand.
