The morning after the Anahera's captured the southern lands, the Typhonus host finally made it's way back to Regalia, speeding to Calemberg. The chosen place of engagement would be the large rolling hills in front of Calemberg itself, the Consortium forces holed up against the city walls with Freya Lo and Lenora Santorski at the gatehouse towers. Speeding ahead of the Typhonus army was the Lamperouge army, led by the wounded Tristan Lamperouge and supported by Malikar gro Arzuk and Rhoghash Ironmonger. As the morning unfolded on the battlefield, it appeared the Lamperouge army had turned coat and made it's way to the Consortium walls offering their service. The Consortium accepted their entry and started deploying their troops together with the consortium troops on the fields in front of the walls. Tristan Lamperouge himself would meanwhile take position next to Freya and Lenora on top of the walls, well aware of what was to come, wounded on a recliner and with no way out.
As soon as the battle lines formed up, the first cavalry charges were made between the armies. The Consortium army had swelled to 4000 troops with the Lamperouge's, while the Typhonus army was backed by 4400 troops. This was to become one of the largest battlefields on Regalian soil ever seen in history, and many families participated. The Nava, Coen and Oreisio armies were present to support Typhonus, while Thomas Kade held his personal retinues as supporters as well. The first cavalry charges were sent forward, showcasing Aron Santorski leading the Zastorzy cavalry against Thomas Kade and Typhonus's Reiters. The Zastorzy cavalry crushed the first Typhonus cavalry units, proving once more that the Cavalry of the far north ruled the field. The Cavalry was quickly called back, followed by the Typhonus main line moving forward.
As soon as the main line of the Typhonus troops were moments away from the front lines of the Consortium armies, the Lamperouge lines quickly turned to their left and shot with arrow and spear into the Consortium lines, making it clear they were actually traitors. The events unfolding on the battlefield before them had Lenora Santorski fling forward to the castle battlements, grasping onto the stone with her hands, before looking back to Freya with eyes beset with disgust. "We should never have trusted Coen's lapdog!" But freya did not respond. Freya was already standing over Tristan Lamperouge with a vile look on her face, Tristan defenceless on the recliner. He seemed at peace with the situation, a content smile on his face as Freya plunged her dagger into his chest, over, and over, and over. While Freya was shrieking and making a whole barrage of beastial noises, Lenora composed herself and shot off a cannon on the side of her battlement loaded with fireworks, a signal to be heard and seen by her soldiers.
The Typhonus army meanwhile was making headway into the Consortium ranks, the Consortium ranks being thoroughly confused about the betrayal of the Lamperouge forces were suffering heavy losses. Ulric Typhonus cheered the soldiers on as they rushed down the enemies, only to see the cannon fire from the walls. All of a sudden, all Consortium soldiers dropped to the ground covering their faces. The battle abruptly stopped, the Typhonus army stopping the fight thinking they had won and the Consortium surrendered. They started cheering, but quickly their folly was made apparent.
Further down the battle line a Qadir mage formed a strong funnel of wind, pushing a single individual up in the air almost 50 feet off the ground. The Typhonus army looked on, confused as to what was going on, but it was already too late. The person carried up into the sky with the funnel suddenly conjured a massive bright flash of light in front of him, a searing white light almost ten times brighter than the sun. nearly the entire Typhonus army was blinded by the light, grabbing their eyes. Those closer to the source started screaming, but their screaming was not the only sound. The Consortium troops who had all taken refuge from the flash, stood up and started massacring the blind Typhonus troops. On the front lines, Jaak Keppkuula cut down soldiers upon soldiers, slashing his blade across William Kade's chest first, knocking him to the ground and trampling him. Grey Drah'gon tried to defend himself against Hadrian Talbot but the Killikan was too fast with his shield and broke both Grey's legs by smashing his shield into them. Grey was left screaming on the field until he and William were taken as prisoners. Thain Hiltan fought gloriously, despite being almost blind. He managed to save Ulric Typhonus by pulling him off the battlefield, meanwhile Ulric was still screaming from the sounds of his soldiers dying, however he was captured after hoisting Ulric on a horse and slapping the horse to run away. Thomas Kade managed to escape on his horse, unable to see the horse simply galloped away from the battle. Amber Averill fought bravely on the field, scimitar still striking people down while blind, but she eventually gave up and surrendered, still unable to see her assailants. The Orcs on the flanks meanwhile had a hard time. Malikar Gro Arzuk was brought down with several spear jabs. Rhoghash and Malikar however escaped as Rhoghash threw around smaller smoke bombs and explosives to distract the consortium troops, allowing Rhoghash to escape with the almost twice larger Malikar on his shoulder who had meanwhile lost consciousness. Aron Santorski was minorly wounded by this act, as one of Rhoghash's bombs hit Aron's horse, causing the horse to fall spraining his ankle. As Rhoghash looked back, his sight slightly restored, a single manly orc tear rolled down his cheek as he saw Kilain Thordal killing Lamperouge troops in the name of the Consortium.
That day, nearly 4,000 Regalians died on the battlefield near Calemberg. The entire Lamperouge and Nava retinues were eradicated. The Coen, Oreisio and Thomas Kade's hosts had only 100 troops left each, and Ulric escaped with 200. The 500 remaining troops fled to Praginn, after which the 100 Oreisio troops retreated to the County, while the Nava family returned home, without troops, thus leaving Typhonus with 200 troops and Thomas and William Coen each with 100 troops behind. The consortium had lost roughly 200 troops, most cavalry from Santorski and front line troops caught by surprise.
In further summary, Tristan Lamperouge was declared dead. Malikar Gro Arzuk was gravely wounded and transported back to South Medway with Rhoghash. William Kade and Grey Drah'gon were captured. Grey was thrown into a cold frozen prison north in Lenora's land, while William Kade was given the necessary respects with doctors and healers at one of Lenora's private mansions. Amber Averill was thrown in a prison in Calemberg itself. The news of the battle rippled through Regalia like a giant shockwave. As soon as the news was heard in the county of Thraceia, the Wynter lands, locals started to riot against the Lamperouge leadership, citing the Lamperouge Duke had brought them nothing but dead sons and were fighting for independence from the Duchy of Vultaro. In the Duchy of Vultaro itself, Zero Lamperouge was contacted to take over his dead brother's titles, the locals cried out for revenge against the Lo and Santorski families. Meanwhile in the west, the Nava servants were getting very nervous. The Dragenthal counties were internally fighting amongst each other, and the Nava's had somehow managed to kill off their entire army in a battle far away from their home.
