After the losses in the civil war, the lasting army would regroup and rebuild in the Nomadecy regions, in beginning a top rally of an average 1,000 infantry and cavalry each. By superior officers were kept close watch, while the men were paid heavily good and fed well. This was very unexpected among the local troops that made up the 1,000, while the rest were rallied from the civil war. They never made casual conversations with the fresh Reinforcements. They all held a deep, grudging sorrow, yet angry expression. There was a point during the marches, they were all separated from fresh to the veterans. Always became silent, or the fresh local troops giving off conversations and laughing, yet the veterans did not eat. Along the roads of the village Algeness, the Prince made his appearance on horse with a raging expression shared to the veterans. He didn't give any words and took the lead with superior officers on horse, marching along the 1,000 regiment troops. Among the marching and continuing camping, a brief halt was given. they had stopped at the borders of Zuder, the Prince turned the 1,000 regiment back to a coastal village on the field side, claiming they threaten the commonwealth. The men made a ready war cry. The population of the coastal village was around 7,230 people, dialects and foreign languages, one of a unique Coastal trades among the seas and colonial states. During the night, the 1,000 manpower regiment made positions around the outside village, above the plains and hills, the men ready. The village was large in a sense, with torches and people walking around during a celebration at night. The Prince had looked over upon his horse and raised his sword. A yelling line of men charged into the village, lighting the few houses on fire. Cavalry made haste into the city, colliding into the crowds of people, and slashing the unarmed civilians down. Infantry made a blockade wall, fighting people who armed themselves. Musketeers fired up on the crowd, and then the charge of swords began, killing many people in the process. The coastal village was burned down along with ships admitting smoke during the daytime near the borders of the Zuder and Xienchan.
