Back at the rear of the Sand Palace, Zaraki and the group of the Drakhars who was with him were not having a good time. The wave of the Infested Ones threw their ranks into chaos. The rain of maggots quickly decimated their lines, with smaller shields and lower morale. It didn't take long for their lines to be broken.
If not for the timely reinforcement of the orcs and the trolls, the Drakhar's ranks would have quickly abandoned the battle. With their allies anchoring the defense, the Drakhars fought hard as if to prove that they were not useless.
It was to the advantage of the Drakhars that most of their foes were concentrated at the main entrance of the palace.
Numerous Infested Ones swarmed the main entrance. The ones blocking their advance were the 3rd and 4th warband of the horde. The orcs in their formation were blocking the advance of their new foes.
