Prelude

It was a normal day in the Sun's Smile of Year 72 of the second age. Tensions between the Iron'Uzg and Elysium were at its highest, but people tried picking up their lives again. In the evening when the Elysian traders who were trying to sell their goods in neigbouring nations returned back to their homes, they stumbled into an orcish garrission of about 400 to 500 orcs who were present on the ELysian roads. The orcish forces robbed and slaughtered most of those people, but few could escape and made a run for the city. Soon after the Elysians gathered a small force of about 900 humans and elves under command of The Fist and Faust De Astrea to take care of this thread on the roads.

Battle

By the time the Elysians arrived, most of the orcs already disappeared, leaving 200 orcs around to finish the job. Upon spotting the forces approaching, the orcish cavalry set out for their capital in order to gather more men. While those were gone, the Elysian forces quickly took care of the orcs and ologs on the roads. Shorty after, while the casualties from this slaughtering were getting help, an other 900 orcs alongside 300 wood elves arrived at the scene. Soon after, both sides started antogonizing each other until they both spotted another force approaching. This was a group of Rivians on patrol, led by Montgomery Potte, a friend of Elysium and mercenary. After noticing what was going on, the Rivians met the Elysian commanders and joined their ranks for the fight which was inevitably about to happen.

The now slightly outnumbered orcs soon followed up with a full charge, trying to surround the Elysians upon which, the 'The Fist' and Montgomery Potte signalled to fall back in order to reposition in the forest. During this risky move, the orcish forces managed to cut down about 300 Elysians who were falling behind. The orcs kept on going, thinking that this was an easy victory, but the Elysians did not give in. Upon noticing the portion of their troops that was cut off, the Elysian commanders yelled to turn wish caused them to slaughter 200 of the orcish forces. After doing so, Faust de Astrea and Montgomery Potte kept on retreating towards the Elysian capital, thus luring the orcs out while the fist set out with about 100 men in order to flank the approaching orcs. This tactic proved usefull as 'The Fist' managed to get behind the Iron'Uzg's forces, using the trees of the dense forset as a cover and pushed all the way through their ranks towards the capital, taking down 250 orcs. The tides were turned now in favor of the Elysians.

The now joined commanders knew that as well, thus prepared for a final strike. The orcs however did not even take the time to regroup, but chased down the Elysians, falling into their trap. About 500 orcs got slain this way which caused the final 250 to scatter and tried running off. However, the Elysium forces cutting down about 150 more orcs and capuring a handful of them. The few orcs surviving this fight ran back to their nation, while the Elysians took care of the wounded and marched back to their city with minimal loses. Not losing any more men since the first orcish charge.

Aftermath

Elysians took care of all the bodies scattered around in the forest and brought the prisoners, gathered in the after in for questioning. The remaining orcs returned to the Iron'uzg and reported the result of the battle to the rex.
