In its wake, the army of the shadow isles left crushed buildings and shattered families. The smell of death hung in the air, along with the cloying aura of pain and suffering. It was unreal, the damage done. Time had passed years beyond memory since the city felt such pain, so close to home.
Still, not all was lost. An end to the fighting brought with it the end to the adrenaline haze of warfare, a breath of time in which to mourn the dead, and a rekindling of the hope that was so repressed by the presence of the unholy presence of the damned.
The spirit of Demacia was wounded, but unconquered, and in their time of need all of the City state came to aid the wounded. It was a reminder. Demacians stand together. And as the military and civilian efforts were organized and mobilized at clearing rubble and rebuilding homes, the refugees of a nightmare made real were taken with open arms into the homes of their brothers and sisters. Pain would fade, wounds would be healed, but the threat would never be forgotten.
The numbers of men and women who volunteered for military service, a large percentage of the population already, would increase, and Demacia would take its first measured steps back towards glory.

Jarvan was tired. Tired from long days of worry and sleepless nights. Tired from the weight of events and a deep loneliness. Demacia was wounded, and greviously so. The attack had been sudden, overwhelming, and devastated the peoples spirit. This was Demacia, land of fairness and safety, and that Invincible dream had been shattered in a few days. As much as his own pains did, the deaths of so many of the citizens wracked him. Marabelle's entire family was gone. Davney Hornring, Lieutenant of the Dauntless Vanguard was gone, a friend for many years. Thousands of citizens were in mourning, where so short a time before they had shared laughter. All of this he shouldered with determination, and with a solemn scowl drove the reconstruction.
This was a mistake that his father would be remembered for, regardless of cause. A greivous error of complacency and ignorance. This was a tragedy that would not soon be forgotten. Jarvan IV had to maintain order, and soon under his example the wreckage of siege was being cleared away, and new construction began.
