Landing in Fon

After the decisive victory at the Battle of Hidden Island, Jiri Baathúr invaded the port city of Fon in the mainland Edelmaa. This was a minor skirmish during the Edelmaa Great War.
== Background ==
As Workhold was engulfed in civil war, Thuran of Baathúr, Jiri Baathúr sought to use this as leverage. Jiri prepared 7,000 men to invade the entire continent of Edelmaa. First Jiri should conquer a port from which to supply his troops. He thought to invade the Hidden island and from there invade the mainland's prosperous port city of Fon.
After the battle at Hidden island, Jiri rested for nearly a month and then restarted his campaigns. He sailed with his fleet north.
== Capturing the city ==
As the Baathúr forces landed, they were greeted by an small cavalry escort with a rather fancy looking man holding a white flag. The man holding the flag was the general of the city garrison. He offered to surrender to Jiri, which Jiri accepted. Immediately after this, the city was set ablaze by the citizens. Jiri nor his men did not even step inside the city. The citizens began to riot and killing the garrison soldiers. Jiri executed the general as he thought he betrayed him.
Jiri set camp to the beach. At evening, a man from the city came to Jiri and told him that he has to bring order to the city. Jiri complied and took control over the city, massacring massive amounts of the populace.
