From Sacred Army Note: is incorrect in several details

At Beldorford, the Sicinians had rune over the fortress and were celebrating when from the basements of the houses came thousands of men who had already loaded their guns and opened fired on the confused and surprised Sicinians. some of the artillary from the north could be heard booming. Acannonball hit one of the log walls and smashed it to splinters and started burning. Through the smoke came hundreds of calvary which had been a few hundred yards away in a nearby forest waiting for the boom of the artillary. The Alliance troops quickly moved into postion and started their amazing three shots per minute. As the 2 forces fired at eachother from both sides, the Sacred troops finall managed the Sicinians to move back alittle ways, but since they moved back they moved into the basement men who forced the Alliance back to the other side of Beldorford. The Alliance were trapped in a mass of gunfire and cannonballs raining down on them.

Just as the Alliance had lost hope over the hill to the south, they saw a few hundred alliance troops marching for Beldorford. From the north more calvary and infantry moved in, the Sacred troops had come from Ongro just in time. Among the charging Sacred Calvary was General Scott who shot a Sicinian off the wall hen turned to his messenger and told him togo fetch militiamen from Ferndeg, a fortified village in the north. the messenger dug his hells into his black horses and galloped away to Ferndeg. Both reinforcements reached Beldorford at the same time. Now the battle was at it's peack, dead bodies were eveywhere sometime knee-deep. Also Beldorford was burning wildly. Muskets fired, artillery boomed the swords of calvary against calvary rang through the town.

As dusk felll upon the island, a group of a few hundred calvary set off from ferndeg for Beldorford. when they arrived the battle was coming to an end as the Sacred Army fought the Sicinians a little ways out of the fortress, with the group the Scred Army had pushed the entire Alliance army out of Beldorford. Quickly and efficiently aa group of men sarted putting out fires and started rebuilding for a counterattack. Bodies were searched for ammunition and survivors only a few of the bodied were alive, Most of them Sicinians but they were still brought t beds and were cared for.
