Conquest { XXV }

The battlefield was raging with the clanging of swords and cries, carrying emotions ranging from that of death to that of victory.

At this moment, the advantage Winterseed once had disappeared as Glenwood forces began to act even more harshly, following the sudden collapse of Rowan in the middle of the battlefield.

Prior to Rowan's sudden collapse, Winterseed's men's sole focus was on slaying their foes. Every man fought on his own to slay his enemies and had no reason to hold back.

Nevertheless, following Rowan's fall, they no longer focused on slaying their enemies. Now they focused on protecting their Lord from Glenwood soldiers who tried their hardest to kill him and secure a quick victory.

The formation Rowan set for his men was broken the moment he fell to the ground. So was their hope and faith in him. The confidence on the faces of the soldiers who saw him on the ground disappeared, replaced by a strong determination to protect their only hope.
