== First battle ==
The first battle started outside of the city. The Iceborn ships sailed up to Scathaux and once within range, they opened immediate fire. The city of Scathaux within seconds had their defenses ready and returned fire.
After a short battle, the Iceborns stopped firing, having lost a large part of their fleet and one ship docked at the docks. There, Duncan Darkwood together with his most trusted Valkery waited on them to see what they want, knowing that he already won the battle.
The Iceborn leader Daekra Solli'gra would exit the boat and speak to Duncan, demanding the city to hand over money, even though Scathaux just obliterated their fleet in less than an hour. With a soft laugh of amusement, Duncan Darkwood allowed the Iceborn into his city, on terms that they don't try anything. His reasons for this spread far and wide, but everyone knows, even he, that this was a mistake to make.
== Time in between the battles ==
The time in between the battles was short, only a couple of days.
Within these days, the Iceborn seeked refugee within Scathaux as they would repair their ships to return back home. For Scathaux, these were dark days. Criminality has never been that high in the city, the guards and Valkery constantly working to keep it down and keep the city safe. Arson, theft, murder, physical and mental assault were regular, brought to the city by the Iceborn.
During these days, Scathaux has been restless and the people were quickly sick and tired of the Iceborn, wanting them gone.
== Second battle ==
The second battle erupted a few days after the first battle. The Iceborn leader, Daekra Solli'gra, demanding Duncan to see his wife, Aria Solli'gra, now a days known as Aria Arlen'darr, in a blind rage. In order to protect Aria, Duncan refused to tell Daekra where Aria was, and with that Daekra tried to kill Duncan.
Unfortunatly for the Iceborn Leader, Duncan Darkwood was well prepared for such an attack and instead, Daekra was killed, and with his dying breath, he commanded his troops to lay ash to Scathaux.
A second battle broke out, this time within Scathaux and here most casualties fell on Scathaux side. The battle went on for several hours, and after the battle was even officially open, it took a few days to find the last remaining Iceborn that were hiding around the city.
