With little to oppose them, the Drukhari dominated the streets of Birmingham, snatching slaves and murdering civilians with unbridled joy. Determined to stop their raids, the space marines attacked the enemy forces in the Oscott District. At the beginning, the attack looked like a success for the Rift Wardens, but with more Drukhari reinforcements emerging from the webway, the situation turned sour.
The Drukhari poured fire from their ravagers and raiders, into the space marines. The clash lasted about three hours. Caught in the fire from all sides and having lost the initial advantage, librarian Camelard ordered a retreat under the cover of night. He split his forces into two demi-companies and sent each to assist their battle brothers in neighboring districts.
