A/n: Big Thanks to Darius Thoift And also Greenboy676
From chaos to more chaos, that's how the Battle of Winterhold turned out to be There were too est was at the gates of Winterhold, the attackers that swarmed in were all repelled back and Alina's plan was to devastate the power of the other dark clans to the extreme so that she can dismantle them later one by one with ease
The second front was the War Ma fro those ones in the back as reinforcements with false news The entirety of [Team 0] was to focus all its resources on that to happen The War Ma that Jon came with, maybe she drew some inspiration of Jon's devices but that idea couldn't be done if Jarl Skald of Dawnstar didn't drive the giants off towards Winterhold
The Fireement to buy the orphaned mammoths For a mamiant would stick together as partners for their whole lives and the Giant Bloodline in the Firemane also had the same quality with the Nine Guardian Totem Beasts rather than reat addition to the [Dare Corps] since no clan can reason with the Giants as good as the Firemanes
Wulfur rode his mammoth and directed it to chase the deserters of the alliance's army The reinforcements of the alliance crushed by half under the feet of the ot pincered between the defenders of Saarthal and the ones following the War Ma well for Winterhold as it flexed all its military power to the extreme
And now to the third front At the northern shore of Winterhold, a band of 2'000 cavalry the red banner of the wolf, the High Kings troop and Skyri was personally at the forefront of his force charging directly towards Saarthal On his right was his Housecarl Bolgeir Bearclaw, his Court Wizard wizard Sybille Stentor, his Thane Bryling and his Steward Falk Firebeard
The ride was limpse of Winterhold before it is too late
”Ahoy! Riders co ahead!” One of the scouts on the lead called
”Don't tellwas ready for some bad news but that seemed like the worst
The scout came back as fast as he could
”Looks like trouble! They are hostiles!”
These words weren't assuring which side was this is The soldiers of any defeated ar any travelers on their way for the sake of provisions and loot to escape further
”Ready for clash!+” Torygg readied histo capture one of those deserters and inquire about Winterhold
A few seconds later, runners appeared on the end of vision with a cloud of fine snow chasing therim appearance on their faces and their screa was clearly wrong
Those ere sed by the cloud of fine snow gave off pitiful dying shrieks accorew restless as it approached and the runners didn't even bother Winter Solitude's men
To their surprise, the cloud of fine snow stopped in front of the fro unnatural
What thescary e trunk of a rown one
The round and groaned at the riders It clearly wasn't considering them friendly
”Well, well, well Who do we have here? If it isn't High King Torygg hi froinable but as soon as the people raised their heads, they saw a largea large war pike and looked down at them with cold murderous eyes
”This is… Wulfur of Winterhold Thane Jonhild's right hand” Falk Firebeard ell-infors We are amidst a battle so didn't have the ti to our hu'sdidn't mind Wulfur's hostility and replied
”We are here to aid Winterhold 2000 Cavalrymen are with ht have some unexpected allies but I didn't think Solitude would be one This way”
Wulfur turned the 's head
”Jon said… Wait! You spoke with Thane Jonhild? Is he here?” Torygg rode forward right away
”You will see soon enough”
The third front where High King Torygg caer surprise was on the king's side Winterhold was faring much better than he ever expected
Thane Jonhild Fireest nored the forces supporting hi of the Firemane as their son and the Moonblades as their son-in-law and the College as a great asset This sure puts a feerhouses on Jon's side
King Torygg's plan was to stop the bloodshed but that was already too late and anyone in the state of Winterhold won't hand over the victory they gained for negotiations Right now, the best action was to calrasp of how could they repel such an alliance away
A king's first duty, after all, is to balance all the forces to keep the shi+p afloat
South to King Torygg, the fourth front was much more active and bloody Another unexpected reinforceh the Wayward pass chasing the reinforcements of the Alliance then diverted their direction and e off its place
Those riders were all Nordic Raiders carrying the blue banner of the bear under the lead of none other than the most charismatic leader in Skyrim, Jarl Ulfric Stormcloak
”Send those Elves to Oblivion! Skyri advantage of the high ground to ee, the Nord Raiders descended on the Elves out of nowhere
”Nords! Kill them”
”Filthy humans! Your kind will be eradicated!”
One had to hand it down for the High Elven warriors of Summer Set, each and everyone one of them was a fierce combatant with many years of experience Unlike the huh elves had the quality They coped with the situation right away
shi+elds, swords and spells hat the elves usually fought with all in light plate Elven Are over all manners of battlefields The Elves valued their life and always pursued immortality, their lives hat mattered above all else so when the Nords wore padded armor and reinforced armor with a little to do with plates, the elves were always fully equipped
The shock charge of Ulfric Storht away Still, if there was someone who can deal with the Elves on every situation, this man should be none other than Ulfric Stormcloak
”FUS RO DAH!” Jarl Ulfric shouted the Elves in his way e forward once again reaching another cliht behind Ulfric, this man had a katana blade to his side and kept his eyes narrowed as he checked through the Thalmor force Once his eyes landed on a robed justiciar, he jue reaching the side of the justiciar in a second beheading his! They always die fast”
Ulfric's horse stopped beside thewryly
”They die fast because you kill theht up to your touch at all, Fulthei lad and I'll leave you to yours Didn't you have soe to settle?” Fultheiain
”Aye!” Ulfric said as he looked deep into the Thalmor camp
There were eleven exceptionally powerful auras behind the force yet in a certain tent, there were two one of them was very familiar to Ulfric
”Elenwen! Roll over here!” Ulfric called for Elenith strong resenth Elvensolden face
”Oh, if it isn't dear Ulfric? What can I do for you, old friend?”
”Cut the crap wo” Ulfric ju his spear down and pulled out his axe Rikvard
Elenwen face was ever so passive and cal since we met last time if I remember Still, how is yo…”
”Shut your trap, wo boy I et over me yet?”
Ulfric and Elenalked to each other and the two forces took cleared a place for their leaders to duel Ulfric's Rikvardclash the pushed Elenay Ulfric took a sing Frost around hi shockwave of power made the normal soldier stumble around hi like that, her Magicka inside her boy started to burn and she cast [Eh Elves always looked down on the Art of the Battle-Spirit saying it is alien ht by the Akaviri hearsay They never practiced any Aura
The duel between Elenwen and Ulfric ift and clean The two seemed well aware of the other's skill set and countered the counters of each other
Ulfric waved his axe in rounds trying to distract Elenho kept a safe distance and locked eyes with Ulfric As he sht, his hands pulled a sword by the left
