Simbady had thought it was just a bluff. He had never expected Osha clan was serious.
When the warriors from Osha clan were about to execute the order, a clash broke out between the two groups. Over 50 people, who regarded the punishment as unreasonable and attempted to escape the discipline, started to tussle with the ones who tried to catch them.
Unarmed, the wrongdoers soon lost their battle to Osha clan equipped with clubs and shields. They were, as a result, stripped naked and prostrated to the sandy ground.
Thuram whipped them himself.
The whipping scene inflamed some of the spectators, who were on the verge of starting a virulent altercation but were eventually deterred by the flintlocks carried by Graycastle men.
Everybody had learned the miserable defeat of the watchdog in the oasis that night.
Even cavalrymen swift like winds had failed to penetrate Graycastle's defensive line.
