Chapter 256

After gathering the bodies of their dead comrades and tending to the wounded, the four warbands under the leadership of Khao'khen turned around and headed back towards their camp. Khao'khen knew that the strongest of their foes and that mage that cause most of the casualties on their side manage to escape but he can't do anything about it since they just vanished directly in front of them. He can't possibly scour the entirety of the Burning Sands just to find and kill them so he let them be as he led his warriors back after their victory.

The Warghen Cavalry were left behind to deal with the corpses of their foes and Khao'khen was sure that the wargs wouldn't lack food for a long time. The morale of his warriors recovered after their recent victory and they were all happily boasting against each other on the number of foes that they have killed and even the two War Chiefs were involved in the contest as they proudly declared their kill count.
