In the end, Jason decided to take his chances… morning was soon to come, and those guys were hungry, so he accepted the offer to stay.
The clash had taken its toll on the Celtic warriors as well. As the dust settled, the once unified force began to dissolve. Their lines, once strong and formidable, were now dispersing as exhaustion and the end of the battle set in. Some warriors drifted towards their homes while others headed to the walls to continue their work. Others lingered near the battlefield, their eyes scanning the aftermath with dead pan expressions.
Survivors stood amidst the chaos, their breaths ragged, their minds struggling to process the recent events. The initial adrenaline rush that had carried them through the fight was now fading, leaving them in a state of confusion. They exchanged glances, searching for direction, but found only the same confusion reflected in each other's eyes.
