In the south, the foggy Trader's Plaza was painted red with blood, and corpses littered the cobblestones. The only reason why the Ironborn were not completely pushed back was Denys Drumm and the unnatural mist. He was cutting through any City Watchmen with ease and the nearby Ironborn rallied to him. The fog made quickly forming up in a large formation nearly impossible. Just as the Drumm Lord saw the Lord Commander of the City Watch and started rushing towards him, a wayward crossbow bolt struck him in the eye, killing him instantly. Seeing one of the most respected captains fall, some of the nearby Ironborn started fleeing and the reavers began to lose even more ground.
