"Are you sure about this, Dean?" Aura asked.
"It's the only way I can see us remotely winning this battle," I answered. "Even with our superior numbers, we're still up against a great general. He's at least worth a thousand warriors on his own…"
A memory flashed in my mind, Darah and Spellweaver in a deathmatch that wrecked the area around them.
"Besides, we've already received word that Garm's received a thousand reinforcements from the Scarlet Moon… He now has five-thousand troops and if we drag this battle out more enemies might arrive," I added. "No, this is our best way to win."
"Because for our side victory lies in the escape," Arah agreed. "At least, that's what we want Great General Garm to think."
"Yeah, that'll mean he'll want to chase after us even if we make it obvious that we're heading into the gorge," I said.
