Ayse and Keyrin were the first to arrive at the scene. The System had teleported them near a church like tower for cover, giving them a good look at the Southerner's defensive line.
"Manually cranked ballistas and trebuchets? Oh come on, how do you suppose those trebuchets will hit? They won't do shit against flying creatures!" Ayse grumbled as they continued to observe from a distance. "At the very least use some sort of grapeshot projectiles instead of a piece of fiery rock, you dumbasses!"
Unfortunately, those anti-siege weapons were the only type of defence the Southern Capital could deploy, so they had to make do with what they had. In a glance, Ayse could already see that the Black Cloaks were the ones who were commanding them. As much as they were just mercs, they seemed to have a higher status in the military.
