==Battle Process==
===Battles at the gates===
The Tin Gate was the first to be attacked by the kolosses, quickl followed by the Pewter Gate and Zinc Gate. The latter was the first to break. The Steel Gate was strongly protected by [[Sazed]], while the soldiers at the Tin Gate had to draw back early, which resulted in the kolosses storming the city up to the Zinc Gate.
Many soldiers drew back into the former fortresses of the [[noble]]s. Up until sunset the fortresses of [[House Lekal]] and [[House Venture]] had been stormed by the kolosses. Thousands of soldiers gathered in [[House Hasting]]s fortress, where King [[Penrod]] hid.
At the last lights of the day, [[Vin]] arrived at the battle field.

Although Vin was able to cover the retreat of many soldiers she could not stop the kolosses, who marched on to Hasting fortress. At that time, only five thousand soldiers of Luthadel were left to face the remaining twelve thousand kolosses. Just in time, Vin got to know that she is able to control kolosses by burning [[brass]]. This enabled her to get the whole koloss army under her control.
