The cheering never stopped, if Alaric was at the head of the armed group, Jäwell was the one the fighters were following. It was a mixture of admiration and curiosity, between fear and hope. The seven riders had tasted the potential of Jäwell on the battlefield and kept a solemn expression as they walked next to him.
None of them dared to speak. Taking in the recent events, they still didn't proceed with what they had done. Disobeying the main authority to sneak in the enemy lines, sneak in the rocks, and jump on charging horses to unseat their riders was a crazy idea, but it worked.
They won more than just a victory today, they won trust in themselves and their capacities. The seven men following Jäwell did battles in the past but they never considered themselves as warriors and judging the pitiful state of the group of fighters under Alaric lead, it was obvious that Cardanic was originally not a warrior state.
