In [[486]], Syagrius arrived in [[Logres]] to ask for assistance, petitioning King [[Uther]] to send troops to fight the Frankish invasion on the continent. Uther was courteous, but dismissive as the Saxon hordes were taking too much of his resources to commit to a war far from home. Syagrius eventually left empty-handed, and faced significant defeats that summer. | In [[486]], Syagrius arrived in [[Logres]] to ask for assistance, petitioning King [[Uther]] to send troops to fight the Frankish invasion on the continent.

Finally, in [[488]], Syagrius successfully petitioned King Uther for military aid. Half the army of Logres, under the command of Prince [[Madoc]], was sent to the continent to fight Claudas and his Franks. They successfully took the city of Bayeux from Frankish control, but Madoc betrayed the Praetor and abandoned his forces to return to Logres with his troops rather than attacking Claudas afterwards. Soissons was defeated by the Franks, who took control of the entire region, giving birth to the new Kingdom of Francia. | |||
By [[494]], Syagrius had become a mercenary leader and had made his way to Logres, attacking its people and looking for revenge. He was unaware of the death of Madoc, and was attempting to draw his rival out in order to gain vengeance. Instead, he was defeated by the Knights of the Sword and imprisoned by Uther. | |||
