===================
(Since I will arrive before I wake up tomorrow, posting this up ahead of time)
When the Tripoli Army approaches Botron, the massive army begins setting up for a siege while a horseman rides forth. The messenger demands the submission of the city, but also offers the chance of parley. The messenger also relays the news of Gabula and Valenia having fallen, peacefully, to the army, led by the regent of Tripoli, Bertrand of Toulouse, in order to magnify the ability of their leader and the strength of their presence.
