The village next to them was not very far and in the darkness of the night, Felis and his men rampaged it. In order to increase his mayhem, he separated his men into two because he realized that so many men weren't required for slaughtering one village. And he was taking one village at a time. 

One group led by Brix went towards the west where they would eventually meet with his remaining army, while he led the second group to go towards the capital.
