When night came, everyone finally had some time to rest… while the battle ended in the middle of the morning, the clean-up work still had to be done. The golem masters tried to help after they lost their side of the wall. Still, more than half of the survivors ran away while using their golems as mounts once they saw another gate exploding. So, some soldiers had to go and hunt them… it was unlikely that they would be caught, though.
Aside from that, the people also had to dispose of the corpses. With their heads down, the inhabitants of the city that survived that battle and the battle of three years ago helped the soldiers dispose of the bodies and clean the city… at the same time, some soldiers went to the capital to bring some mages to repair the walls. While it was small, there was a chance that the magic people would try to fight back to take Tristan.
