The Center Melee

"*Sigh*," Faruq at first let out a visible sigh at this question, as he still found it hard to believe had seen.

But since Ural had asked, he saw no point in hiding it, and so recounted what happened in a simple, short manner, "Alexander faked his army's collapse, and let the chariots run through.
