What Is a 'Hero'

"Hold the lines! Hold the lines! Do not step back!" 

Hussein can be seen waving his blade frantically, kicking the butts of the soldiers around him sending out one after another order urging them to not retreat, but received little use. Unit after unit of men started running after a piece of news began spreading the Rumelian troops on the North would turn a blind eye towards anyone who runs or surrenders. This piece of news lured even more Ottoman conscripts into submission, turning around dumping their blade on the ground making a run for their destination of freedom, things went until even some of the Ottomans, who know that the result of this battle is already inevitable, decided to discard their helmet and mix themselves within the group of people running too. One got to admit that when the two kinds of people are mixed up together, they do look alike making people hard to differentiate.
