Right behind the barbarian prince were two other figures he recognized on sight.
Tasgall, who had lost an arm and even the ability to speak during the time he was with them, and Jarek, who looked more human than ever before. (If you have the time I would suggest reading through some of the chapters from the time they were in the pyramid, Ch 700 ish, to refresh your memory)
They were fighting tooth and nail along with the other eighty or so barbarians trying to keep these horrors from reaching the otherwise defenseless civilians behind them.
Burak threw a punch that sent over a dozen beasts flying away and took that opportunity to quickly relay some orders.
"First and second squad stays here, what's left of the third squad will guide the others away!"
About ten men that were fighting near the back, wounded and sapped of almost all signs of life immediately became alert.
"We will not leave the prince!" they all shouted in unison but Burak was in no mood to talk.
