The skaa rebels managed to defeat the Holstep Garrison of a thousand soldiers strong, but got slaughtered by the Valtroux Garrison, who equaled their initial numbers but were better trained and equipped than the rebels.{{book ref|mb1|25}} |

− | News of the Holstep battle reached [[Luthadel]], and [[Kelsier]] and his crew learned of Yeden's foolhardy actions.{{book ref|mb1|25}} Kelsier set out with [[Vin]] to help the skaa, but by the time they arrived, the Valtroux Garrison had slaughtered the rebels.{{book ref|mb1|25}} The Valtroux force was on order to take no prisoners, and put the heads of Yeden and several other officers on spears next to a road.{{book ref|mb1|25}} The only survivors were Demoux's group, who had concealed themselves.{{book ref|mb1|25}} |

− | The skaa force was better prepared than other rebellions in the past and managed to put up a decent fight,{{book ref|mb1|26}} but they were not yet ready to face a fully trained garrison of equal size,{{book ref|mb1|24}} particularly since the battle with the Holstep Garrison had just concluded.{{book ref|mb1|25}} The brutality of the Valtroux Garrison was presumably meant to quash the skaa rebellion, as the [[Lord Ruler]] was aware of the situation{{book ref|mb1|24}} and had massacred rebellious skaa in previous incidents such as [[Tougier]].{{book ref|mb1|4}} Kelsier blamed himself for the defeat, and believed that his own enthusiasm and the promise of help from [[Allomancer]]s were the source of Yeden's overconfidence.{{book ref|mb1|25}} |
