But of course, not all of their forces entered at once. Atrox forbade it. No way would he allow an unknown force to enter his territory like that. That's just asking to be stabbed in the back.
Instead, Atrox commanded Pomora's force from the borderland to swing around to the side of the city where temporary buildings had been erected for the meeting.
There was a reason for Atrox doing that. The knights of the borderland had some kind of aura about them that most people didn't notice unless they got close.
It was the bloodlust of those who had fought in battles. Fighting monsters, watching your back from monsters, and just trying to survive a ruin had created something in them that no ordinary soldiers had.
And they were never easily intimidated.
That was the reason why Atrox had them as the part of his army that would be available during the time. Eamon hadn't thought much of it, but Atrox thought differently.
