Why are people so intent on seeing this battle that doesn't matter?

It was just a timeskip to represent that they were still fighting and the war was still going on, and it was easier to jump into the season in the middle of something rather than trying to explain everything that happened or to do something completely new.

But the war is over now, if that battle was so important to it then we would've seen it. I'm sure they'd try and make it interesting if they were really doing a story about it, but honestly it just doesn't seem that important or interesting an event to do a story on.
