Haldric responded to Jevyan's threat by advancing his forces along the western plains, facing the orcish vanguard. His movements were discovered by Commander Aethyr, who hastened to the Grey Woods to inform Haldric. While the humans bargained with elves for a place in the land, Jevyan seized whatever ships he could find on the Green Isle and set a course east with his subservient orcs.
