The Difference Between a General and a General

With the loss of their general, and four of the five champions, the chances of winning this war had become extremely slim for the enemy army.

One of the people who had noticed this, was, of course, the female archer. She had been leading the survivors of the enemy army into a losing battle against Der and his troops, and now that the strongest warriors of her side had been killed, she knew that things would go progressively worse, until she would ultimately be killed along with the rest.

In her mind, the idea of escaping slowly started to take shape.

While escaping the battlefield was not specifically prohibited, it was usually the last move that any of the hired warriors would rely on. The reason for that was that many wars were won thanks to a desperate effort of the losing end. Also, if planned poorly, an escape would create a ripple effect that would cause the rest of the army to fall into panic.
