The Battle
Minutes before battle, both parties were nervously waiting on their positions.

The First Alliance had taken cover behind the city walls, while Aureus was preparing in their frontline outpost, just a few meters south of Auralich's defences.

As the battle had officially begun, it did not take long for the attackers to storm the walls. They were easy to climb with tridents, as Auralich had failed to secure the water area around the city. The poorly equipped defenders were easily overwhelmed with Netherrite gear. A lack of organization, discipline and communication among the First Alliance lead to an early breaking of their lines, and Aurean forces swarmed the city. Within minutes a dozen defenders fell and were forced back onto the neutral Medic Zone. A couple of defenders tried getting their stuff back and repeatedly swam over into the city, many of them getting slaughtered again by Aureans that guarded fallen soldiers' loot.

It didnt take long for the first men to abort their efforts and flee. The battle had deteriorated into a pointless slaughtering with some Aureans not even sparing the neutral Medic island. Despite both sides having agreed to not attack this neutral zone, a range of killings occured around the respawn tents.

With many defenders leaving the scenery, the battle calmed down before it finally ended officially after an hour.

Not one Aurean was killed in the battle, while the defenders had to mourn beyond 100 casualties.
