After Rain and his companions rendezvoused with General Varlox and the rest of the Ebizo, they set out towards Clockwork City.
Along the way, they met reinforcements: soldiers arriving from the Orc clans and Silverstone Oasis. In total, they had amassed 3,000 soldiers.
Meanwhile, waiting for them at Clockwork City were 10,000 elves and 2,000 Goliaths. Since the Orcs were fresh from a war with the Hobgoblins, their numbers didn't reach a thousand. Though Rain's forces were few, they were bolstered by the surviving Hobgoblin army, some mercenaries, and soldiers who had joined them in Port Town.
Overall, their numbers stood at about fifteen thousand. Rain wasn't sure if that was enough to breach Clockwork City, but he hoped it would suffice.
"There are some Lizardfolk here with us," Rain commented. "Is that alright, General Helliana?"
