The Conflict
Prelude
Michael had joined the Cossack guards when he was 15 and had seen the north. he was fascinated with there culture and he saw and opportunity. he asked his father twice to invaded and after two regections he deiced to do as he wanted. he took 100 cossack guards and entered the lands of clan calmoor. he asked for an audience with the clan leader. the 80 years old yet fully of ferocity. however none of his wives had given him a son and he had three daughters. Michael said he would marry them all in exchange for his allegiance and that Michael sons would become chief of the clan. the leader chief agreed and on the night of February 15th he married all of them and he put a child in each of them that same night. the chief soon died and Michael became acting chief and the less lords of clan calmoor knelt to the one they named the little bear. however the wolf king soon found out. king Robert donrachei summoned the soldiers of clan donrachei and 20 others and the host was 20000 men. he demanded. Michael saw this and asked his father for help however his father said nothing. he sent word to the watch tower towns on the boarder for help an they sent 500 men. Michael raised his own army from the calmoor men.
robert had split his army into three. one host lead personally by himself would advance along the boarder in an attempted to capture the tsaravich. the other two would advance from the north in order to pin down the calmoor host.
Michael force were grouped into one as he knew that he needed all his strength.
the northern winter coated the moor land of clan calmoor. the wooded were covered with snow. the roads were not well kept and made it hard of the large host of king Robert.
the first battle happened a week after Michael troops arrived. he lead 200 men personally against a raiding force in the north. he personally killed lord James Ferson taking his family sword for his own. he however pulled his forces back after hearing from his troops that king Roberts was in the south. robert had little problem with Michael main force away from him he march unobstructed towards the village of kragen and sacked it. Michael turned south and ambushed king Roberts host by out flanking the column as it advanced through the forests. robert tried to peruse his foe but Micheal melted into the forest. Robert decided on a different tactic. he attacked every caslte he could find looting it of what it had then buring it so his enemy could no longer use it. Michael watched in terror as his wives saw there home destroyed. the tsaravich then diced to make one last attack. he hit robert in the nose in the dead of night attacking his resting army and killing hundreds of men and taking men captive. he threatened the wolf king that if he killed anymore of his people that he would slit the throat of his captives. Robert saw through this threat ad told him to do it knowing the young boy was no monster. Michael didn't have the spirt and ordered his army to retreat. the war was all but over and he ordered 50 tsardom cavalry men to take his wives to the boarder. he wound follow with the rest of his army soon after and the calmoor war was over.
roberts army cellabrated in it victory over there foe. men feasted and made merry. many whored through the night. the lands of clan Calmoor were divided between the donrachi's, MacDonalds and ralfsons.
Michael three wives escaped with there husband and they gave him three children including a son he called kiril. he also had the sword of clan ferson and renamed the sword shadow bear after the name his men gave him.
