The air was full of smoke and Zegranas could feel battle as he neared a simple bridge
"hmm this was not here before but will help us greatly, the portal is not far from the other side of that bridge"
as his armies gathered on the other side Zegranas caught sight of a large mound of earth with human soldiers guarding it, he saw a wizard standing upon the center watching his army as if guardians of the pass. But at last he saw them, scattered bones and armour of the reapers armies, even the head of his dear friend T'al Nasnada who he had known for many decades
through this Zegranas held his hand high and his armies were unleashed, swarming across towards the wall of earth like a mass of bone, with Zegranas leading them using his arm as a shield as the hundreds of shards of human arrows poured into his army and smashing into his gauntlet
"for the Reaper, no mercy, tear their bodies from that wall"
the wizard called spikes from the ground, yet they were mere annoyances that he smashed through with his sword, catapults however would prove a great thorn in his side as they smashed through ranks of his forces, almost hitting him in the process
Zegranas saw his chance however, he spyed the old bow of his friend Tal, he crouched and picked it up and fired a shaft at the wizard, it smashed his staff in two and a second shaft found its place in the old mans chest, he fell from the earth wall. Zegranas knew a wizard would not die from such a fate, but the loss of his staff and the arrow in his chest would not allow him to help his men in this battle
" attack!!! their wizard is no more" and as Zegranas shouted the Skeletons poured over the earthern wall, climbing the rock and swarming round it, Zegranas slashed through soldiers, their bodies melting under his sword's plague energies, finally though he looked around finding he was almost alone, his forces were a tiny rabble against the human legions, as a quick bid he ran at the enemies commander, the commander was on his dragon flying above, Zegranas sent an arrow into its body, almost missing but hitting its tail, the commander yelled and with his dragon descended onto Zegranas.
Dodging Zegranas took a slash at the dragon, which bit his blade, its mouth however went rancid and it let go, Zegranas used his gauntlets and sword as protection as the dragon continually bit at him, finally it breathed hot fire, bathing Zegranas, the red runes of power on his armour flashed and shielded him from the blast and Zegranas slashed at the dragon, slashing a hole through its mouth, it leapt back in pain. The Commander of the human armies leapt from the dragon, wielding his sword with fast placed skill and blocking with his shied, the commander was far faster than Zegranas, eventually Zegranas' two handed blade smashed the commanders shield but by the time this happened he was surrounded by soldiers. They continually hit at him and the commander took his sword and sent it through Zegranas' head. The old skeleton slashed at the commanders leg one last time, leaving a corrosive infected mark, then he toppled to the floor, he could hear the men all cheering as the commander limped back to his dragon in pain, yet Zegranas cursed them as the power that had once raised him died out.
