Farghous' army made camp beside a wide river that ran through both the territories of Farghous and Oredolia. Anchored beside the camp were many ships. These ships carried the army's supplies, allowing the army to march at a fast speed so long as they stayed near the river.
The river was called the Changhe River. Beside the river was a large steppe named Haotts Steppe. The armies from the three countries of Echos, Farghous, and Gyleth Marx were assembling here.
Gyleth Marx and Echos had their fast-moving troops rushed here after receiving the news from the Hierophant, while the remaining guarded their camps and supplies. The combined army of the three numbered around one hundred and eighty thousand troops.
