▲The '''Siege of Fadrex City''' was one of the major events on [[Scadrial]] between the [[Collapse]] of the [[Final Empire]] and the [[Final Ascension|ascension]] of [[Sazed]].
The human and [[koloss]] armies of the [[New Empire]] under Emperor [[Elend Venture]]'s command, besieged [[Fadrex City]], the seat of [[Aradan Yomen]]'s throne. Elend
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 a distraction from the third one, taking place at the koloss camp. Eleven thousand koloss died under the fire of catapults or killing each other in bloodlust.
After this incident Elend asked to debate with Yomen. The conference resulted in Venture's wife [[Vin]] being taken hostage. Elend reacted by fighting a koloss army nearby Fadrex City and returning with twenty eight thousand koloss, which made his koloss army thirty seven thousand koloss strong.
Following the orders of [[Marsh]], Yomen sent his army to the fields to battle the koloss army. Although Elend 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 koloss in order to annihilate both the armies of Elend and Yomen.
As the koloss broke mad, Yomen decided to open his gates to let the army of Elend in. Meanwhile, Vin escaped from Fadrex City and travelled to [[Luthadel]].
