Scarlet finally reached the mouth of the valley with her army. Unfortunately, Saul had already laid out his trap.
If Scarlet were a coward who was frightened by Baery's madness, or if she lost confidence after learning she had lost the mouth of the valley and fled, she would have survived. The magic array Saul set up had a time limit and Miorich's men would not have been able to defeat her if she were to flee.
However, Scarlet was not a coward. On the contrary, she was a defiant and proud woman. Even though she knew she was walking into a trap, she was still very calm and collected. Scarlet always liked a good challenge. Even now, she was still governing her army with discipline. She was hoping to preserve as many fighters as possible and take them back to the Shansa Empire.
Both Scarlet and her soldiers thought she was right. Except for the first battle's chaos, no one could defeat Scarlet or mess up her strategy.
