[@Polybius]

That sort of magic eh? Well, suppose I can work with that. Magic tends to be pretty OP whenever people could use it freely anyways, so relying on mortal skills and tactics would be a good change of pace. 

Also I didn't think my ambush would've been so effective. I sort of figured there was at least 1000 or so mercenaries, so there's no way Malakaus's puny force of thirty could have killed/driven them all away. Most, sure, but not all of them.
