The Great Battle of Mountain Beasts (6)
The battle hung in the balance. The troll center, though battered and bloodied, continued to retreat in a controlled manner, drawing the orcs further into the trap. But the orc commander, sensing the danger, ordered his forces to focus their efforts on breaking through the trolls' flanks before they could complete the envelopment. The orcs at the edges of the battlefield, sensing victory, fought with renewed vigor, driving their weapons into the trolls with savage efficiency.
In the end, the outcome of the battle would be decided by whichever side could break the other's flanks first. If the trolls could hold out long enough to complete their envelopment, they would crush the orcs in a devastating pincer move. But if the orcs could break through the trolls' flanks, they would shatter the trolls' formation and claim victory.
