What a chapter, so many things happened, first off I'm actually surprised how much he's changed in a year, he is still quite childish in some senses but he has clearly matured. This just keeps getting better, now he'll take over the fortress and save his invader fellow, he wouldn't ask them to follow him in his path of revenge but maybe after freeing them some would gather around him and be his allies in the coming events, we definitely need more footsoldiers appearing in the story.
