Mezkazel's Invasion of Africa

Mezkazel's forces landed in Africa, and though they were outnumbered by the army that greeted them, Gildo's forces crumpled almost immediately. Eutropius decided that the time had finally come to give the Gothic king what he wanted, an official command in the Eastern Roman army. The Goths could now kick back and wait for regular shipments of food and supplies. Silico did away with Mezkazel before his power and popularity grew to rival Silico's.
