When Ostera emerged from her tent, the watch was still removing
bodies from the trench. The Sons of Lurio had unleashed a new bombard, enormous
and firing rounds that shook the earth. They released some strange alchemical
mixture that filled the air with noxious fumes. Anyone who inhaled the miasma
was doubled over with fits of coughing. That passed, but was followed soon
after by fever and rasping breaths. Death was the end result.
Command wasn’t sure what to do with the bodies. No one knew if burning them would release the fumes anew. There were too many to bury.
