Ibesh War of Avengement, Continued

Seventy Third Hiqba Following the Revelations of Occulem, Third Mahj

As seen by any throughout the south eastern regions

Furious infantry of the third janissary contingent have forged a reckless path around Rock Bay, crossing rivers with improvised bridges to launch a gruesome first assault against Rokkarian concentrations which were swiftly met within the contested region between each line. Khrom advisors were spotted commanding those beneath the black banner to several clashes which halted the Ibesh host from further advance. With considerable casualties on both sides, the spear-wielding swarms of invaders were afforded an opportunity to fortify their side of the river, constructing trebuchets with the assistance of volleys fired from their ships adjacent to the coast. Evenly matched on the land, the Ibesh advantage of sea and thrown stone have assured that they would at least not be sent scurrying back to their eastern landings, cementing a bloody stalemate at present.

Scouts however have confirmed the imminent arrival of Khrom-Vestrian forces, likely to turn the tide even more so in favour of the defence. The Ibesh host, overseen by the Sultan himself and commanded jointly by Emir Imadh have kept their farris in reserve while ordering wave after wave of levies emboldened by their religious fervour to meet their end at the swings of Rokkarian axes. Their position tenuous beyond holding the aforementioned landings.
