That was a weird question to raise at such a time. Still, the group forgot about that when the humans began to carry ladders toward the walls. Still, when they first landed there, the enemies made them dissolve in acid.

"I suppose this is a real siege, huh?" Rain asked. "When we recovered Tristan, the enemy didn't have the chance to defend itself from our surprise attack, and thanks to that, the siege never took place."
Branden calmed down a bit when he began to see that as a siege. Sieges were a battle that tested the patience of both sides… it wasn't weird for some of them to last months in the past. Although he looked like that, Branden knew that patience wasn't his forte… it only made sense given his age and for how long he had been working to become influential in the realm.
