Before the enemies arrived, Jack and Aldryth had decided the placement of the defenders.
Arther led the defenders on the Northern side while Meryl was at the Eastern wall. Hydrurond's sole Lord Dominator, Dytess, was in charge of the Southern side. Grace and Arthur stood guard above the main gate at the Western side. Jack was supposed to defend this side as well once he finished with the management inside the place.
The ninth king of Themisphere, Theardeat, flew to where Grace and Arthur were. He was a level 80 rare elite. He held a sword in his right hand and a staff in his left. He used to be a native who could use both melee skills and magic spells.
Jack also summoned his royal agents and had them spread out along the defensive walls.
Messephyria was very large and it had no natural barrier like Mount Thenias for Thereath. They had to defend all sides.
