The death of Garron would surely stir the pot in the eastern and central side of the Southern Great Steppe.
But the first person who receive the news of his death is none other than his own son in law, Aeryon
Who was just a few dozen miles from the battlefield in the Utgol river.
Aeryon was waiting for a messenger from Garron. He did raise his army in anxiousness but that does not mean he is reckless.
He wanted to know the situation and the lay of the land so he could plan his rescue. He did not think of trying to capture Ogura right now
This is the territory of Utgard. The morale and the advantage is all on Ogura side right now. If he could mobilize ten thousand men with him today, then yes, not only capturing Ogura is a possibility, he could even try to capture the main settlement
But he is not here to conquer. Today, he is here to try to save his father-in-law.
Each second that passes felt like a long time.
