Arriving in Pannonia and finding only a drained pool of Limitanei to defend it, the rest having been pressed into service in Gaul by a hungry imperial war machine poised to strike at Gaul, the Langobard Confederacy are set loose to ravage the province. Pannonia is now in chaos, occupied by marauding Rugi and Lombards. The Lombards set up camps in the north, and their Rugi vassals push on towards the south, careful not to cross into the jurisdiction of the east. The Lombards and Rugi pick up slaves and plunder wherever they go, and seize what they wish to take from the fields. They do not sow, and some small hamlets or family farms turn to fallow as their workers are seized as slaves, slaughtered or flee.
