The '''Battle of Hanmer''' took place during the early days of the invasion of [[Kellan]], the second phase of the [[Wars of Arin]]. The southern branch of the [[Onyx Army]], led by [[Morjec]], had made its way to just north of the city, using the [[Kellanic Catacombs]], taking the defenses by surprise. The [[White Alliance]] was still new, and not expecting an attack so deep into Kellan so soon, and so had only a small force in the city. [[Argon Milsley]], the lord of the city, was nominally the leader of the [[White Army]] forces, but in practice they were led by Sergeant [[Colans]].

The battle itself was one-sided, although the city held out for a few days. The defensive forces faced enemies coming both from outside and from below, but Colans rallied them to make a stand on the east side of the city, along the west bank of the [[Hanaelon River]]. Colans himself was killed by a [[troll]] as he attempted to guide non-combatants over the bridge on the Hanaelon. The bridge has since been dubbed the [[Colans Bridge]] in his honor. Many strategists credit Colans with giving the White Army enough time to regroup for the eventual [[Battle of the Three Armies]].
