As dawn approached so did more soldiers ready for war.
Human Calvary road through the night, and thousands of soldiers tiredlessly matched at the wims of their lords that had to answer to their kings. While most were headed towards the defensive line established by the unified dwarves, some moved towards other human kingdoms or those under the banner of the elves.
For the kingdom unlucky enough to be the target of the "slightly malfunctioning" canoneer doll, the worlds of the dwarves that recorded the event as they witnessed it not the words of this ol storytelling bard, they were highly motivated by a since of righteous justice.
But they and they alone could be said to have a justifiable reason for going to war with the dwarves. As for the others they had less honorable motives, or perhaps given into the influence of others.
