You wish Ceodwell good fighting as he sets out, taking about three hundred horsemen with him.
2*
The raiding party has the unfortunate distinction of picking the most heavily defended of Damdamian camps; the bolts and arrows and ballistae making short work of the horsemen.
The remaining thirty four return, one of them carrying Ceodwell, who, bleeding from several wounds, lost counsciousness.

His second-in-command meets with you.
"My Queen, I have bad news to tell you. I'm pretty sure that some of our riders were captured and there were few high ranking officers and noblemen of certain standing in your court amongst those who rode with us. They had knowledge of our battle strategy and the knowledge of incoming Dahnian reinforcements."
"So Damdamians know about them too?" The officer remains silent, which is enough of an answer for you.

Few hours later the head of the group of healers caring for Ceodwell visits you in your war chambers.
"I have some good news, Your Majesty. We have taken care of Prince Ceodwell's wounds. He will live, but I advise that he stays in bed for at least a week." You thank him for the information and he leaves.
891 AD, The next morning
War horns of Damdamians sound around the palace! The Damdamians are attacking again!
2*
The city is set ablaze! From the high towers you can see the buildings standing closest to the walls smoking and exhaling tongues of flame towards the sky.
The palace does not fare better, as the heavy stones rain upon the fortified keep and the thick walls, crushing the crenellations and smashing roofs and windows.
1oh bother
As you traverse through the corridors to a safer place, suddenly you hear a thundering roar!
Someone pulls you backwards but it is too late!
The ceiling is collapsing!
...
891 AD, Several minutes later.
You hastily leave your chambers upon the news that a large stone launched from a Damdamian catapult destroyed part of the floor where your mother, Queen Elana, was last seen at.
The members of the court loudly argue with each other as some wanted to have Ceodwell in charge during the war, but he is bedridden, therefore they turn toward you for guidance and leadership.
You're
Princess Aife, and you're
gifted in the ways of
wisdom,
charisma and
martial things, albeit you're known to be rather
sickly since your early childhood.
"Is Queen Elena dead? Can we make Aife a Queen yet?"
"Splendid idea, let's invite Damdamians for the coronation ceremony, too!"
First order of business will have to be calming down those arguing courtiers!
6*
With ease and confidence you bring order to their blubbering, and you take control of the garrison during the siege.
The officers report that the Damdamians are rather thinly spread as of now, and that a sudden counter-attack by some of the garrison could break the current offensive.
A) "So be it, have part of the garrison fly out through the gate and wreak havoc amongst the Damdamians!"
B) "Any splitting of our already small garrison would be a grave mistake. Sit tight and perservere, everyone!"
