While Zaos was getting used to his new weapon, he chopped off the limbs and the heads of many mercenaries, but he also had to pay the price. His arms had wounds all over since the swings of the weapon were too big and long. The only thing that was making him stand was the fact that he used Heal to stop the bleed.
After fighting for so long, many things started to make sense. One of them was the fact that the mercenary army was composed mostly of rookies. While some of them were as big as Elius, they didn't have nearly the same leave of experience and training. It was only thanks to that Zaos and the others managed to fight for so long. Still, their original force had decreased by half in just a few days, while the riders were nearly exterminated… only ten of them were still alive.
