Herald of Steel

The sacking of the city, as Alexander promised continued for three days.

During that time, the forty thousand Zanzan soldiers and forty thousand camp followers filled their pockets with the riches of the residents, their bellies with all the fine food the city had to offer, and their spirits with the soft flesh of the women, and even the men and children as preferred by some perverts.

And as they enjoyed this, aside from arson and burning the place down, almost every other heinous act was conducted by the invading men.

The Tibian men were beaten or killed if they resisted, the women were forcefully taken and many of their valuables were snatched.

And this occurred to the point that the surrounding air around Thesalie for those few days was filled with the mournful screams of women and children and the mad cackles of men.
