 | | In 596, Childebert invaded the area of Soissons; Fredegund summoned Landri, Mayor of the Palace, war leader, and her lover, who marched an army with Fredegund into Champagne to counter the Austrasian's attack. |
 | | Although Clotaire's mother, St. Clothilda, took the late King Clodomir's three young sons under her care, Clotaire and Childebert withdrew the children by means of a ruse and slew the two older ones; however the third, Clodoald, escaped and entered a cloister, where he became Saint Cloud. |
 | | Clotaire, closely pursued by Childebert, who had been joined by Theodebert, son of Thierry I, took refuge in the forest of Brotonne, in Normandy, where he feared that he and his army would be exterminated by the superior forces of his adversaries. |
