[Dinant](/wiki/bicolline/regions/federation-argannaise/dinant/) 1017,

Since the declaration of independence of the province in November 1014, the links between [Andore](/wiki/bicolline/regions/andore/) and Dinant had experienced ups and downs, but never, O never, had it been so sharp. Dinant loudly proclaimed its independence and only asked to free itself from the tyranny of a nobility weighed down by the ravages of time. Andore for its part cried out for the High Treason of a guild having sworn loyalty to the throne of the kingdom since its welcome by Henryk de Brabancourt himself.

The cannons of Moussillon first resonated in Grossouvre and Séverac. The general staff, thinking they could put an end to it quickly, were surprised by the resilience of [Lord Clowake](/wiki/bicolline/people/clowake-eldaloth-de-grossouvre/) who defended his borders at the risk of his life. Andore raised its armies and again Dinant resisted. Sir Edouard de Tarpignan launched all his troops in a final assault at the same time as Clowake's allies responded to counter the invader.

The bards and minstrels are already preparing their songs and laments, because the fate of Dinant will be decided on the morning of the fourth day of November 1017\. Will you be part of history during this memorable battle?
