Bjorn left most of the administrative staff in the fortress of Eyr to set up the new government. He would take with him only the Knights of Nyr and the Sej archers along with the few Pikemen and levies from the citadel. Mongo had sent him the reports of a large number of enemy armies in the forest to the South. While the information was old, he did have some preliminary reports on the enemy forces from an earlier season.

The army made their way down the mountains from the citadel of Eyr and through the rift into a great forest. The Sej archers were sent out as scouts and soon located the bulk of the enemy army. As expected, they were raw recruits who had just started their training. They did not detect the approach of Bjorn's army until it was too late.

The archers quickly overcame the slight defense works in the forest. With a hail of arrows the archers drove the defending armies into the clearings, where the knights sat in wait, ready to ride down any armies who ventured there. Faced with the arrows of the Sej or the lances and swords of the Nyr, the defenders largely threw down their arms and surrendered.
++ You have won the battle !! 50 Units invade the Province.
Leaving a few armies behind to secure the province, Bjorn pressed on with the bulk of his armies to the final province of Skankerad. There was no significant resistance, as all of his forces had been sent to make a stand in the forest. Skankerad was discovered in the desert, along with the great wealth of his empire.

The trophies of war would be shipped to the citadel of Eyr. Skankerad and his retinue would be offered safe passage back to Elsanix, where he was to take ship and leave the island. He was, after all, a Kaomarian and deserved nothing less for his valiant defense.
The army would be distributed around the empire to keep the peace and continue training. More woodsmen would be required to equip an army equal to that of Allister's. Most importantly, a large army would be assembled at the rift that led to the land of the Disciple Massielita. Sometime, in either the near or distant future, another army may emerge from the rift and Bjorn hoped to be ready for them.
Until then, the land would rest and the mages magic would turn to NOURISH and RAIN spells.
