Chapter Twenty-two (4)

In the capital, the invasion had arrived in full force. Screams could be heard from the lower towns all the way to the city. People unlucky enough to be walking the streets at this time were slain where they stood. Commoners in the lower town found their stores and properties burnt to the ground. Some were unlucky enough to be have been inside when the properties were set on fire. Many hoped for the Juhntt soldiers to hurry to their rescue, but no one came. No one moved. The nobles stayed inside and were spared the agony of loosing their properties. commoners tried to run to them for help, but none opened their doors. It did not take long for the streets to be lined with the dead.
