Description: After successfully defeating the cruel lord in the barren land (see This Barren Land), you decide to feast upon your victory. The people like you very much, but you explain to them that you must continue on your journey. You allow one of your men to take control of the encampment while you're away.
You find an abandend castle not far. It is in good shape and has some natural advantages formed by the rocky landscape. You decide to stay here for a while. Whilethe peasants happily give you a tour of the castle, you notice that there are five different marketplaces surrounding the keep. They explain that a rouge trader called Charles, the brother of Fordian, has once taken control of the castle and intends to "rip-off" other traders. You quickly destroy these marketplaces, only to find one of your knights that stayed at the encampment comes riding up to you...
You learn that the castle encampment in the barren land has been set alight by none other than your arch-enemy Maldon. However, you cannot take revenge just yet as on of your scribes tells you that a massive joint army of Maldon and Charles is heading straight towards the castle! You immediately station your archers on the towers and begin improving the castle's defences...
Your task is simple. Hold out the castle long enough for the carter to deliver food and emergency supplies from the castle here to the encampment in the barren land.
P.S. There is a bug. The troops at the top don't attack. I think it's because of the stairs. Still, it makes you train more troops to eliminate them
