The siege machines of the Eldor army continually battered against the sturdy walls of the City of Syan. Each hit sending tremors through the reinforced material, each hit weakening its durability just a touch more.
The defenders tried to destroy the large weapons, yet the soldiers of Eldor were no fools. They held back some of their more potent defensive treasures and warriors to protect the siege weapons, knowing that their survival was imperative to the swift success of their assault.
At the same time the towering siege towers drew ever closer to the walls. The defenders tried to focus fire on them, they tried to foul their tracks, to set them ablaze. Yet their efforts were foiled at every turn.
The attacking army was competent, they knew their weak points and as such they knew how best to both utilise and protect them.
