August 1757 CE

Monro has paid a heavy price to learn that there is a sizeable body of French and natives further up the lake.

The French capitalize on the win and send two forces south from Carillon, one on Lake George and one chopping through the dense forest on the west side of the lake.

With the defeat on Sabbath Day Point, both bodies meet little British resistance.

Their objective is Fort William Henry; on the morning of August 3, the French come down the lake and glide into the view of the British.

The Battle of Fort William Henry is about to begin.
