Tristan and Balin captured Rock Snow City without shedding a drop of blood, which meant that Solomon's plan to conquer the western territories was more than halfway complete; the only task left was to defeat Ireya and her Resistance Army.
Using his extensive military experience, Tristan judged that the Lady would most likely hold up in the city.
After all, the Resistance Army was at a numerical disadvantage and would struggle to win in a direct battle, so they would likely face a siege next.
Tristan also had Clovis find some merchants in the city who had been to that new city, to gather intelligence about it.
The group then rested for a day in Rock Snow City and soon welcomed a reinforcement army.
Solomon had not returned from dealing with urgent matters in Lake City, but he had sent three hundred warriors and also brought the Storm Monarch, specifically to counter the White Queen.
