Changes

Unlike his father, Mosk-Sopoh was not in the habit of preparing for a campaign for years, instead putting together an army quickly and counting on the element of surprise. Additionally, he introduced the idea of first attacking Tyrna from water and then, when most forces would be focused on the coastal side of the city, enter it from its southern gates. As Toor did not have warships, the attack was commenced at night, with hundreds of sailing ships carrying archers that began to fire flaming spears. This set Tyrna's port and fleet on fire.

In the morning toorians attacked the southern gates and were able to easily enter the city. Tyrna was then sacked and Mosk-Sopoh ordered its inhabitants slaughtered. He then had a choir perform drinking songs, while heads of [[Dōrsag family|Dōrsags]] where hauled over the wall with siege engines.

Porteek references several toorian sources that explain that the brutal treatment was not simply due to Mosk-Sopoh's personal hatred of Tyrna and how its gole embarrassed his father, but that he needed to be sure that he won't be attacked from behind when marching further west. But Mosk-Sopoh ended up leading his troops back to Gaskal due to the untimely demise of his sister, Goolytoh, with whom they were very close, having grown up together.
