Ser Dhal is having a hard time doing anything of value; his infantry can do little but guard various strongpoints and the militia has been too badly beaten to be of further value. He tries with some cavalry deployments, but he lack the necessary experience to coordinate between his own men and those sent by Braedonnal (and the later make no secret of their disdain of their new 'general'). In the meantime the sidhe continues to ride across the land, but score no more major victories.
Oh, and the promised MOC templars have yet to arrive. Delayed by procedure and courtly sloppiness it is said.
