Zalbag dismounted from Arod and walked over to his second in command "What has past?". The young
 knight looked up at Zalbag "The Nateen have fallen in numbers, but are still stronger." Zalbag
 nodded slowly "I see, and our numbers?". The knight thought for a moment "We have lost thirty and
 have twenty injured. We may not win this fight sir...." Zalbag shook his head  "Never say never
 Leazels.". Suddenly a scout came running up at full speed shouting "General Zalbag! General
 Zalbag!" when he arrived at Zalbag's side he said "A large army is approaching from the south sir,
 over two hundred men!" Zalbag cursed softly "Who are they?" after taking a deep breath the scout
 replied "It looks like Lord Larg's men, the Hotuken.". Zalbag chuckled slightly "Just like Larg to
 check on me. That man has less faith in me than Stark does.". Leazels looked over the field
 "General! The enemy is running! What shall we do?" Zalbag thought for a moment "Finish it.".
 Leazels looked shocked "Finish it? But they are weak, it would be mindless slaughter." Zalbag
 looked at the young man "Would you rather tell the High Priest that the Nateen escaped with their
 lives, knowing of our plans? Or would you rather finish them off now?" Leazels sighed softly and
 ordered the attack, he felt a tear roll down his cheek as he watched the Hotuken and the Shrine
 Knights wipe out the rest of the Nateen.
