With no rest but the occasional sleep and food, Rain, Thraigar, Chi, his troops, General Varlox, and over 900 Seadwellers pressed on, their journey north.
The Seadwellers utilized sturdy carriages and powerful warhorses to swiftly traverse the rugged terrain, their disciplined ranks moving like a well-oiled machine.
As they advanced, the remnants of battle and disease marked their path. Hobgoblin bodies, rotting from the virulent illness that had decimated their ranks, littered the ground.

Without their timely intervention, his own forces might have succumbed to the same dreadful fate.
