The Story of Lord Gralamin (pt. 2)

The air grew cold as he stood there trying to ready his men for the onslaught. He knew this palace might fall due to the surprise attack, but they would not get it as easy as they thought it would be. Gralamin yelled to his soldiers, "Men! Now is the time to show your courage, now is the time to show your fierceness, now is the time to drench your blade in blood!" He smiled as he saw his men raise their blades and roar. "Before we take on this task you must ready yourself before you take on this battle" He heard a small chant start in the back and rush to the front.
"Gra-la-min!"
"Gra-la-min!"
He stood there as he watch them chant over and over his name. He was surprised that they would honor him so well. He turned around and looked into the distance, there he saw Jix'su scouts standing on a hill, glaring back and him through there insect eyes. He turned back around and yelled, "Spear men up front! ready your spears and prepare for assault!" He walked right behind the second line of defenders and pulled out his blade, it shined like a new moon in winter. He smiled and gripped his blade firmly and watched as the Jix'su army marched towards his army. They would never get past our army. He saw there image grow more and more focused as he saw them approach closer and closer. They stopped about 1000 yards away and they yelled something in there native language. But he understood as they hissed and yell kind of at the same time. They ran en masse towards his army. He watched as the first ranks ran right into the spears and fell to the ground. Then the second, and the third. "There trying to get them to drop so they can run right through us" he thought as another and another rank just pushed each rank in front of them forward. He saw one Jix'su almost work his way to him but a blade to the head told him otherwise and it dropped to the ground.Just then he yelled "Attack!" and the spear man dropped there spears and drew their swords and yelled. Everyone started to run to the front, swinging their blades and watching Jix'su fall all over the place. He looked left and saw a few of his men get pummeled by a poleaxe and ran over to stop the killing blow as he parried the poleaxe and stabbed it in the thorax and watched him slide off his blade." You men alright?" he asked. They stood up and nodded and ran past him to kill the Jix'su that was hold a dagger and a shortsword. He then charged to the front and started to yell. All his men then yelled the battle cry and watched and some Jix'su drop their blades and run as his men got closer and closer, dropping more and more Jix'su as they went after those who ran, they would not be able to share the story until they met their hell and told those demons. He ran and stabbed and slashed his way to one of the slower Jix'su and slashed at him. He ran past him as his men saw why they were running. He looked over the hill and saw armies upon armies of Jix'su standing there. But then he watched a glow cover over him and his army. a highly decorated Keledi whispered into his ear " If you want to stop them now then tell your men to retreat". Gralamin then yelled "Fall back!" and they turned to run into the castle as the first army charged them.
Halfway back to the castle he turned to look again and saw masses upon masses of Keledi flanking the armies. All he heard was yells of fury and yells of pain from the other side of the hill and when he got to the castle he walked in and told the gatekeeper, "Make sure that all our men are in here then drop the gate" the gatekeeper nodded started to look into the distance.
He knew he would've been defeated if he stood there and fought with them. He then heard a rustle as the same Keledi told him," The reason we saved your army is because we need you and your army's help."
