With the band of ice trolls that had been attacking the town of Klopot vanquished, Marcus who had defeated the most of anyone and was standing in the middle of the battlefield began collecting the fallen trolls' magic cores.
Starting with the leader's, Marcus collected nearly two dozen cores before the members of the Eternal Queens joined him and began collecting their share.
Soon the forty-three magic cores had been collected and Marcus and the eternal Queens divided them up based on how many they killed.
Marcus having killed thirteen trolls including the leader received that many cores, while the members of the Eternal Queens estimated that they killed around twenty and decided to give the other ten to the town for their collective effort.
Walking back towards the wall now that they had collected their loot, the guards on top of the wall that they had fought side by side with began cheering once again.
