The Knights of House Griffith and House Taranis are taking part in the battle for Frontis, but an avoidable disaster has recently struck their forces there. It began when, during a lull in the fighting, limited supplies were dropped into the area where the Griffith Baron Rhodoks and the Taranis Princep Cavanix were each commanding a detachment of Knights from their Households. Despite having fought beside each other for weeks, tempers soon flared when Rhodoks saw Cavanix leading his Knights to the supplies, which were not enough for all of their Knights. The Baron quickly signaled the Princep and told him the supplies were claimed by House Griffith and Taranis would have to wait for the next supply drop, but Cavanix ignored Rhodoks' claim and warned the Baron to stand down, as the Taranis Knights continued to march toward the supplies. The Princep's reply angered the hot-headed Rhodoks, who felt the Princeps' remarks and refusal to acknowledge Griffith's claim on the supplies had slighted the Baron and his Household's honour. Rhodoks would not let that stand and led his Knights after the Taranis Knights, who rapidly turned to face their former allies. In the senseless battle that followed, both Households' Knights were ravaged and though House Taranis would emerge victorious, only Princep Cavanix's Knight was left standing.[1]
