(Vladford's POV)
Smoke was rising towards the castle. My heart was racing while I rush to ride my horse through the roads of Wisteria. The people on the streets was panicking and were running away from where the fire was burning.
When we were near the castle walls, I could hear the clashing of swords. It already occured to me that there was an attack going on in the castle grounds.
"Everyone, pull out your swords!" I instructed my men. I also pull out my sword and readied my self to whatever was waiting for us.
"Who could have done this?!" Jacob was evidently furious. "Who could have attacked us like this?"
I have some ideas in my mind right now but I was still shocked to see the answer with my own eyes.
"Imperials!" One of my men shouted. "The imperials are attacking us!"
I did not need to hear to know the answer to Jacob's question since I saw soldiers clad in armor with the Draconian Empires seal embedded in there chest plate.
