While Zaos saw many arrows falling on the walls, only two soldiers lost their lives that day after the numerous attacks started by the mercenaries. They approached the walls while using their shields to protect them, and then a group of archers hidden behind would rain down arrows until their quivers were empty. It didn't look like a wise tactic since it only caused two casualties. Still, the number of wounded increased by ten. Those were the veteran soldiers, the only ones that actually could fight in a melee.
"It is also weird that they didn't try to attack the gate…" Zaos thought. "Maybe they are afraid of the number of archers we have. Our first attack caused some mental damage on them it seems."
