Ibesh War of Avengement, Repelled

Seventy Third Hiqba Following the Revelations of Occulem, Third Mahj

Reported by eyes of either host

The Sultanate's third janissary contingent has suffered a harsh blow following the mobilization of Khrom heavy cavalry and infantry of which the angered northern force has no counterpart, utilizing no mounted men among their own number. In spite of standard employment of spears, the armoured riders were capable of carving a path through the furthest advance of the Ibesh, challenging their lightly equipped infantry with daunting efficiency. As a result, Sultanate banners have had no choice but to retreat to their holdings on the eastern bank of the river dividing their landings and the contested region, shoring up their existing back line with additional long-range trebuchets and archers.

This has placed the foreign host into a beleaguered state, morale diminishing for those on the land and yet unchanged by the men at sea - Emir Imadh himself taking to an offensive posture upon the waves with numerous raids pilfering the western coast of Rock Bay. Though no further expansion has been assured, the pressure applied by Ibeshi vessels increases as the sapphire sails mass in the waters surrounding the Rokkarian capital in search of a challenge to their solely advantageous domain.
