Viktor managed to sneak back into Suno with his 4 Mercenary Crossbowmen and hires 5 Mercenary Cavalry, now he tries to loot and burn Iyindah which peasants seeing the band of 10 soldiers decided to stand and fight again, who will win : 10 against 42? Alas Viktors revenge on Iyindah is complete and with no casualties and plenty of loot, maybe he will pay the ransom broker for Firentis's freedom HAH! yeah right. After making over 6000 gold in Suno Viktor searchers for more mercenaries to build up his force strong enough to take on Swadian lords. After pillaging Veidar again Viktor decided to head down to the Rhodocks to reinforce his unit with some anti cavalry troops and to offload his newly acquired stock of course. Clashing several times with mountain bandits who continue to over estimated their ability, mercenary cavalry and horsemen crushing them with the initial charges. After selling off the items and buying a new horse and some armor, Viktor travels to some Rhodock villages and recruits a total of 28 soldiers, heading back into Swadian territory to raid another villages when he comes past an interesting sight, Count Beranz at the village of Nemeja, chasing him along the coastline to the east too slow to catch up chasing him into hiding in the castle Tevarin. So Viktor instead raids Balanli the village close by to Tevarin, while doing this Beranz raises 10 more troops before riding out to the village to take on Viktor with the aid of the villagers. 42 against 93, 43 of the 93 being Beranz troops. 23 killer 15 wounded, 89 killed 1 wounded as Viktor was knocked unconscious feeling just strong enough to lead the final charge, Viktor's 5 against 3. Viktors 3 Mercenary Crossbowmen and 1 Rhodock tribesmen dropped the 3 enemies with ease, Beranz however managed to escape. After rebuilding his force to 54 troops a mix of Mercenary Cavalry and Crossbowmen and Rhodock Spear men Viktor headed off to Dhirim to take part in the liberation, Nords were in the middle of fighting the Swadian occupants and Viktor having met the Nords briefly before decided he would rather be on their good side for now. Viktor is about to march when he sees a army of 40 strong under Count Montewar's command and Viktor is fully aware he cannot take on such a foe at the moment, even with an extra 14 men. Once reaching Dhirim he sees that the battle has finished and the Nords are waiting for reinforcements before trying to attack again, but the time wasted on the battle Swadian forces have come to aid Dhirim and have Nord troops running all over the place. Viktor missing the opportunity decides to change direction and attack the oncoming trade caravan instead.
