The Siege Ends, Enemies Retreating

The Irason forces continued their relentless assault, bombarding the southeastern forest with a combination of magical projectiles and explosive canons. The enemy forces, all of them coming from the southeast, faced the challenge of evading the overwhelming barrage while maintaining their formation.

As the explosions echoed through the battlefield, the Elais commanding officer communicated with the hooded leader, "We anticipated heavy resistance, but their artillery barrage is more intense than expected. Stay focused, and let's push through. We can't afford to lose momentum."

The hooded leader, coordinating with his team, acknowledged, "Spread out and minimize exposure. We can't let their artillery dictate the pace of this battle. Once we close in, their advantage diminishes."
