The Empires of Terra

There was no need for conscription in Theolagius's military, almost every man and their slave enlisted themself. An army in the millions.
"Forward!" An officer bellowed, spearmen, swordsmen, archers, cavalry... they all moved in unison, even mages rode with the siege equipment behind.

(A week prior)

"Astreiden, come here." a very tired Royal adviser ordered.
"Yes attasivan, what is it."
"I understand that your trip to Orcish lands did not go so well, pity. I have another test, a simple one." Yktrisen took a sip from a ceramic mug, thick wine dripped down his chin.
"Another?"
"Yes, you will go to Xi'an... with the crusaders."
"The crusaders! You want me to go to battle?"
"No, I want you to observe, capture a Xianese heretic, a demon even, interrogate him and find the flaws in their lands."
"How could you find this simple? Speaking with orcs was enough, I could die!"
"I'll pray for you."

(Present)

Astreiden lay in the back of a supply wagon, he shifted uncomfortably.
"Damn, why am I doing this?" He asked no one, an officer, one who accompanied him to Ocrad, rode up beside him.
"Do not worry, boy, you'll be back in your comfy bed before you know it."

Welp, prepare to be overwhelmed by the power of the emperor.

I think this is a bit one sided, I'll edit a time jump as well, any idea on how I can make this a fair fight while keeping to the lore.

The Empires of Terra

(Time jump, a few weeks later.)
Iltar the iron boar stepped out onto a large platform, facing the large population of the capital, he breathed in.
"HEAR ME, PEOPLE OF THEOLAGIUS. The now king of Xi'an has given us a gift of his coronation... release the body.", with a wave of his hand, two soldiers let the tortured body of the assassin fall until the centre of the palace wall, the crowd gasped and hid the eyes of their children, "The demons have killed a high ranking human from their OWN land and left him to die with us, the demons are trying to provoke us, to show us that humans, no matter their standing, are vermin to them. They wish to bring us to war... and I tell you, we will bring war, we will wipe out the demons from this land and free the humans from their control!", the crowd cheered, "let it be known now that any man capable of holding a sword may join our army to take back terra from these evil beings, this shall be known as 'The Blood Crusade'!"
"Hiedefai o eth gantza!" "Hadafe!"

---------------

Astreiden arrived back just in tim to witness the speech, "how does he expect to kill the demons without the poison flower, their practically invincible without it!"
"Practically." One said, astreiden continued down towards the palace gates.
"Astreiden has returned from Ocrad!" A guard bellowed, the palace gates rose for astreiden to enter.

His life isn't as adventurous as the others, but, when he was twelve he felt as if the spirit of the high father flowed through him and he found himself face to face with the great martyrs of old, he does not remember this though.

Other: (spoiler: {don't use this against me, you don't know this will happen yet.} he becomes the first son! It's a big deal, he's a good magic guy.)
