The Octitanian advance continued to cause heavy casualties among Arkianian troops, by the 10th Octitanian forces had nearly isolated Arkianian troops further east. The arrival of relief forces prevented the Octitanians from making further advances. However the offensive had provided a enough time for a significant withdrawal of Octitanian forces from the Lagkada region. With the majority of Octitanian forces successfully withdrawn from Lagkada. A small force in the region remained, the majority built and took up defensive positions within the city, with the intentions of fighting on the causing further delays in the Arkianian advance. 2,000 Octitanian forces remained, with 3,000 in civilian volunteers along with a handful of heavy vehicles and equipment. With the offensive nearing its end, the results appear to be a Pyrrhic victory for Arkianian forces. While a major city is inevitable going to be able to be seized, continued heavy casualties are expected, and the majority of Octitanian forces were able to succeed at withdrawing before being cut off. In the west, the advance continued steadily, however was expected to slow in the incoming days as the front stabilized. In the mountains the swift advanced had continued until the 10th, before the forces deployed there were ordered to dig in to be reinforced with regular forces. At sea, airborne and amphibious forces lands on the island inside of the inlet, defensive of the airport were quickly destroyed, and the airport was seized by airborne special forces. On the shores, the marines were unopposed after the majority of defenses were struck by continuous airborne assaults and strikes. The small Octitanian force on the island retreated into the deep interior and the towns. Further north of Octitania, an Octitanian Royal Navy fleet set off towards the inlet in an effort to put the fleet deployed there out of action. Unlike in the battle preceding it, this fleet was no damaged and the ships were fresh.
