Concealed in the shadows, Jörgen loosed several rapid-fire arrows in succession. As if matching his rhythm, several of his sworn children fired arrows of his own. Two enemy soldiers went down.

“Shit, an ambush?! Kill ’em!” one of them shouted.

“There aren’t that many. Surround them!” said another.

“That one in the middle’s mine. That’s a nice blade he’s got. Fine workmanship,” said yet another.

The enemy soldiers were all fired up as they charged forward. Even though two of their comrades had already been killed, they weren’t fazed in the slightest. But that made sense, considering that to the Horn Clan Army, the battle was already as good as won.

“Men! Swords at the ready! Whatever you do, do not let them pass any further!” Jörgen barked.

“Yes, Father!” they shouted in unison. In no time at all, the air was filled with the frenzied clinks of metal against metal. The Jörgen faction was around three hundred in number. That was small compared to the enemy army, but they were currently on a narrow path sandwiched between a forest and a river. The most either side was able to deploy here was around a hundred total, so the difference really didn’t matter. Jörgen was also out swinging his sword on the front lines, cutting down enemy after enemy. His bravery motivated his sworn children, renewing their morale.

“Damn, these guys won’t quit!” one of Jörgen’s sworn children exclaimed. Two hours had passed, and the Horn Clan Army was beginning to get restless as their prey, the main forces of the Wolf Clan, slipped further and further away. They were probably getting real anxious right about now.

“Stand your ground, troops! Remember your daily training!” Jörgen barked, raising his sword high and boosting his allies’ morale. In truth, though, he knew that was a tough ask. As a faction, they’d split into three units and periodically swapped out soldiers on the front lines so that they could let each other rest, but it didn’t change the fact that they were fighting to the death. Anxiety threatened to sap the soldiers’ stamina. However, their battle spirit had not yet died out, and so the Jörgen faction continued to put up a valiant fight.

Finally, sunset came, and the Horn Clan Army backed off at last. The Jörgen faction had somehow succeeded in holding out. But that had been the easy part.

“Haa...haa... All right guys, I know this’ll be tough, but now we need to get a move on and put as much distance between us and the enemy as possible,” Jörgen ordered.

Under the cover of darkness, the Jörgen faction began their retreat. They’d ended up buying a whole days’ worth of distance for the rest of the army, which was plenty. Now it was time to ensure their own safety as they made their way back home. However, that was easier said than done.

“Shit, my body feels like a sack full of stones,” a soldier complained. The Jörgen faction had been fighting all day, and they were all ready to collapse.
