And retreat they did. But the Terrisite forces will not let us retreat easily. And the battles begin.
The dawn is approaching, and the dawn greet them with cold and great storms that lashes upon them as snow and rain billowing blowing against us.
Before long the troops engaged in lee battles. The arrows ca like hail rains, killing and piercing amour.
The cavalry rides with thundering roar and causing frightful break ups among those inexperienced in battle, but I urge my n a 400 man under my charge to go forward.
The cutting and slicing and there were many brave deeds perford by his troops all the while they are trying to retreat.
He kills the enemies force like he was killing flies.
But it is true and he realize this, even from the onset of the battle, that Terris Quinn has a large army, nurous lords that supported him, and a disciplined and well-fed army on his order and a large number of his troops eventually, fell in their own pool of blood.
The dead lay on all sides of the battles as the cries and the screaming of pain wounded n, rang in his ears.
You could see so rider less horse running and jumping in the battlefield as if he is mad, overco with hopelessness, Harald presu.
'The battle is lost' he said at that ti, almost like a whisper.
His mother. His grandmother. He can't and will not perish here.
His army has fallen, only left ten n in his unit, in what must be a great slaughter at its best as the enraged Terris mow and killed with no rcy, their zealous effort seems to Harald, to be so maddening, that no rcy will be given, if he were to fall to his capture.
They are all insane, fills with bloodlust.
They must be insane to do what they are doing now, what a bloodbath, what horrid images that he saw that day in that battle.
He could not find the words to express my feelings.
Even Hell could not be this dreadful. Terrible words will be spoken of this day. The battle of The Moor.
Woes betide anyone who falls into the enemy hands. Such brutality and violent wars. Harald retreat as he rides to ho.
His plan is already set and the plan is to survive. It seems his ambition to be influential here would be hard.
He had no other choice other than to seek protection in other Kingdom.
He fought hunger, of great pain, as he realized blood is dripping from his shoulder as he was retreating from the battlefield
An arrow lodged in his shoulder, blood dripping but he still rides and return ho.
The mont he arrived he quickly force his grandmother to leave their house for he believes that his grandfather has die in the battle.
He never knew what happen to the King after he retreated as the conclusion of that battle were decided.

1015 SEEDMONTH
Harald sighed as he closed the diaries.
'War' and he seems to be taken back to that ti as he sighs again.
He only knew what happens to the outco of the battle a few weeks later. At that ti, he went to the tavern to heard any local gossips
That is when he heard the story. It was at so port when their ship stops to stock so supplies.
The story is as follow.
A well supplied Terris army, and violent and brutal if he might add, led by Terris Quinn defeated the Pretender, King Joseph, who was betrayed by the lords he embraced, and trust.
In the end he beca nothing more than a pawn for foreign nation who did not send him any reinforcent.
A tragic King with a tragic ending.
His life and his defeat in the battle is a tragedy but it is an inspiration for minstrel and bards who have already began singing the Song of the Pretender all over Dostov.
In Dostov history, this is the bloodiest battle ever fought. Even when he was retreating he still saw the painting of hell being drawn by the people.
He saw all of it in that battle and heard it all from the reports and the eyewitness account of those who survived and fled from the battlefield in the end.
It was a nasty and ssy affair.
The forces of the King are well beaten at that ti but the next resulting cruelty should not have been done and unwarranted.
They were killed and after that those who surrendered were buried alive, so were slashed in every part of their body, others were beaten to an unrecognizable bag of flesh and blood.
The bloody aftermath went on for weeks as the King, Terris Quinn order all his royal guard to capture all the families of those who rebels against his rule and throw them all in gigantic vat with boiling oil.
A gigantic pot was constructed and in the palace as the enemies' lord, Harald grandfather companion had to watch as their sons, daughters, babies were thrown into hot boiling oil and suffer with great pain and tornt.
Their wife is raped in front of their eyes and they have to watch as the King slit their wife's throats in front of the defeated Lords.
And only then the King will kill them. But what had befallen the Pretender is much worse.
He was brought to the capital and stripped naked, paraded around the city.
And as he is naked, the King with great pleasure and a terrible laugh cut of his manhood for all to see and stuff it at the King mouth and force him to eat it.
Even the common folk is disgusted by such action but they do not dare to defy the King
Then he gives the Pretender King his excrent to eat and even though he tried to resist he was tied up in the Square with iron chains with great and powerful guard guarding the podium constructed to embarrass him, and he was force fed Terris Quinn excrent and puked giving off a very revolting sll.
Then and only then, battered, weak, and have lost any will to live, Terris ended the Pretender life using a very brutal punishnt.
He set out a hungry wolf upon him in a tight prison as the wolf maw his flesh and lick his bone and the people say that Terris Quinn was laughing maniacally in his castle walls as he administers the punishnt.
No longer will any lords dare challenge him with such maddening action
Terris Quinn ant to destroy any thought of such rebellion ever happening again.
Bardent and Tuca after hearing the accusation that they were the one that funded the Pretender return to Dostov claims to not support the Pretender King.
And so ends probably the last rebellion to the Vern Lucellian Orthodox claim to the throne.
And Harald grandfather?
Fate has sothing more rciful fate in store for him, for he died in the battle, protecting his liege lord, dying the way he wanted it to end.
And so, here he is, running from a cruel King, to the House of Orleans where he will also et his betrothed Emilia.
Harald hope this ti his luck would be prevailing upon him as the ship bravely sails to Vangua.
