The Siege of Fadrex city was one of the major events on Scadrial between the end of the Final Empire and Sazed's ascension.
The human and koloss armies of Emperor Elend Venture besieged Fadrex City and Aradan Yomen's throne. Venture lead an army of thirty six thousand soldiers against twenty five thousand defenders. These armies have been assessed as nearly of the same strength, taking account of the strong defense fortification of Fadrex City. Venture also commanded twenty thousand kolosses, which unbalanced the strength of the two armies.
After two weeks Yomen started the first attack on the army of the New Empire. It consisted of three small attacks, one coming from north and the second from south. Both were used as an avocation from the third one, taking place at the koloss camp. Eleven thousand kolosses died under the fire of catapults or killing each other in bloodlust.
After this incident Venture asked to debate with Yomen. The conference resulted in Venture's wife Vin being taken hostage. Venture reacted by fighting a koloss army nearby Fadrex City and returning with twenty eight thousand kolosses, which made his koloss army thirty seven thousand kolosses large. He now held a superiority against Yomen.
Following the order of Marsh, Yomen sent his army to the fields to battle the koloss army. Although Venture easily could have beaten the army he drew back, heeding the advice of his general, Hammond. This proved to be a good idea, since Ruin eventually took control over all the kolosses in order to annihilate both the armies of Venture and Yomen.
As the kolosses broke mad, Yomen decided to open his gates to let the army of Venture in. Meanwhile, Vin escaped from Fadrex City and travelled to Luthadel.
Ruin gathered a large koloss army in front of the city. In Fadrex City Venture began to understand the function of the mistfallen and realized that he now had a new army of five thousand mistings. After this conclusion, Ruin ordered the attack on Fadrex.
After some hours of fighting the kolosses suddenly ran away from the city, in the direction of Luthadel, where Vin linked with the Shard Preservation.
