Volume 33, Where to Go, Chapter 19, The Battle that Sways the City (2)

When Komer realized that war was inevitable, his reaction was unprecedented.

This was a war that would decide fate, and Komer knew this better than anyone. If facing the beastmen or the military provocations of the Northern Alliance, one could still escape with dignity and return to fight another day, but facing the might of the Court and the Wind Riders, there was no chance of escape once defeated.

Perhaps they won't destroy him physically, but he would forever become their spectacle, used to show the entire Continent what happens to those who dare challenge the Church of Light—the result being a beaten-down version of himself.

Thus, the importance of this battle cannot be overstated in any terms.

Komer accepted Rebry's suggestion to set the Battlefield at Damarlinsk Castle.
