The Contention
“Though many within the war room still talked amongst themselves, Garret did not hear the words they spoke. Instead he ran through the mental list in his head for the thousandth time.

Here the land was fertile, and fertile land made for good crops and good herds. So well was the city provisioned that several warehouses throughout the city had to be repurposed to store the excess that was on hand. Spears and shields were in excess as well as of late. People continued to flow into the city, either to help with the war effort, join the army, or to hide in case Sigrant’s forces made it this far. Garret’s councilors assured him, though, that the influx was near an end. In fact, most of the council believed it unlikely that the army would grow by another thousand persons.
