Siege of Sevendor (Gimbal's Attack)

Siege ยท Book 3 ยท Magelord ยท Victory

Sire Gimbal the Warbird's 150-knight assault on the young magelord's barony โ€” broken by Minalan, Baron Arathanial, and Sarakeem's archery.

The Siege of Sevendor is the climactic battle of Magelord. Sire Gimbal of West Fleria, enraged at Minalan's reclamation of Brestal Vale, raised a force of some one hundred fifty knights backed by Censorate magi and besieged Sevendor Castle.

The siege broke when Minalan, with the aid of Baron Arathanial of Sendaria and the archer Sarakeem, crushed the Warbird's host at the climactic battle. Gimbal was stripped of his domain; his bastard son Sir Ganulan was shot in the knee with a blue-feathered arrow when he charged Minalan at the parley, breaking the truce.
