The immediate and long-term effects of the Battle of the Catalaunian Fields are somewhat disputed. Attila returned to invade the Western Roman Empire in 452, which was more successful than his invasion of Gaul. After a 3-month siege of Aquileia, arranged by Aetius in the hopes it would use up his whole campaigning season, Attila razed the city and ravaged the Po Valley. Aetius, without aid from the federates in Gaul and without the military capacity to stop Attila on his own, sent an embassy consisting of Pope Leo I, Trygetius, and Gennadius Avienus to broker a treaty with Attila. Attila ultimately retreated from Italy, most likely due to a local famine and disease within his army.[110] Some authors have argued that this sequence of military fiascos for Aetius ultimately led to his downfall.[111] Merrils and Miles also argue it led to the downfall of Valentinian III as a result of Aetius' assassination.[112] This has been disputed recently by Meghan McEvoy, who argues that Valentinian III wanted to be an active emperor and simply needed to remove his manager, and that there was no real direct cause for Aetius' murder.[113]
Modern authors have mostly moved away from this viewpoint though, some categorizing it as a battle that broke the myth of Hunnish invincibility.[119] Parker called it a triumph of Roman defensive strategy.[120] Arther Ferrill notes[citation needed] that, aside from the Battle of Qarqar (Karkar), this was the first significant conflict that involved large alliances on both sides. No single nation dominated either side; rather, two alliances met and fought in surprising coordination for the time. Meghan McEvoy, also, indicates[121] that Aetius' successful construction and utilization of the federates in Gaul was a testament to his diplomatic and administrative skills, as well as to the influence of his military success.

Maia and Lily, the new leader of the vampire clan, along with Bat talked about the alliance between the werewolves and vampires at the police station, although, Bat had a slight problem with vampires. They discussed that if the Shadowhunters weren't in Idris and then the Downworlders would do whatever they wanted. Malcolm arrived at the station and told that Catarina needed their help at the hospital, as she had a demon problem and also told them to bring a cage. 2ff7e9595c
