"Follow the Commander!" I heard Thor howl into the night.
My shadowblade came down on the back of the elf who'd just run away from me.
"Fool, you never show your back to your enemy!" I yelled as I cut him down.
In hindsight, I would have preferred it if they'd all just drop their weapons, turn their back on us, and run away. But, sadly, that wasn't going to happen and this coward I just felled was as rare as the rising of a blue moon in the Fayne.
Two more enemy soldiers arrived to block my path, and I had to parry the sword strike of one with my falchion while simultaneously gutting the other with my dagger.
Yeah, I'd gone dual-weapon fighting in this battle just because there were so many bodies around me, and a double slash seemed more expedient than a single one.
"Edo!" I yelled. "Clear us some room to breathe!"
