Thus the dragon soldiers were disarmed. JURAS's warriors closed them into the cells of the fortress. The captured weapons were distributed under the warriors. Contrary to his opponent JURAS did not the error to neglect the guard. He immediately ordered both, nomads and forest people, to the guard service. He sharpened them to announce each still so small remarkableness.

While the nomads celebrated the victory with the supplies of the solider’s pantry, BE'TAK selected five of his fastest forest runners. „Hurry to TIRAN and his people! Report to them about our victory! Then bring message to us, when our allied ones will arrive with us!“ The five nodded and disappeared immediately.

Chapter VIII.

Already the next day the forest people returned. They reported that TIRAN had divided all of his men into four contingents to advance faster. In quick marches the soldiers had already put back the largest part of the way, and TIRAN would arrive against evening with the first contingent. Nomads such as forest people used the short stop, in order to recover still their powers.

[Vauban]

In the evening TIRAN arrived. A little later a further army leader came in with his soldiers. Deeply in the night the third group reached the gate fortress. On the next morning also the fourth army course under EKWUS' guidance arrived. Tiran welcomed the red-haired soldier cordially. Both originated from the same village. The armed force of the rebels had arrived completly thereby at the gate fortress.

TIRAN and his three captains participated in the next war council. One agreed that JURAS should take over the supreme command. He possessed the best training and the largest knowledge. BE' TAK took over the guidance of the scouts and the connecting people. Due to their speed only forest people were selected for this group.

They subordinated further fighters of Arboria to HADOR and SAGIT. Together with the nomads and the warriors of the rebels the forest people formed the attack troop. The arrows of their long bows and arm chests could already attack ARTRAC'S soldiers from a large distance.

NUMUR would lead the riders together with EKWUS. While the rebels pulled on horses into the fight, the nomads preferred the long-legs and long-trunks of their homeland. The long-trunks had already worked in the fight for the gate fortress. They were fear-flow-end animals with enormous tusks, which upset the opposing soldiers by the dozen. Hardly one of the dragon soldiers knew such animals. JURAS counted on the fact that alone the sight of these giants would discourage their enemies.

KUSDOR, an experienced fighter took over the instruction over the security guardians of the fortification. As a child he had survived as only the devastation of his village. He wanted to offer a better future to his children. TURAN estimated KUSDOR's courage just like his big heart. The healers of Arboria and the wounded ones were well waived in his protection.

[Vauban]

Finally TIRAN and PERIN, the third captain of the rebels, as well as ATOR, a leader of the nomads, would lead the in three parts divided foot troops from the nomads and from the rebels into the battle against ARTRAC.

After the preparations were terminated, also the soldiers of the rebel army drew by the gates of the border fortress, as some days before ARTRAC's troops did it. A wild determination had broad-made itself among the men - and women. While for the rebels and the nomads only men pulled into the battle, TA'AHIR had sent also women of Arboria out into the fight.
