Chapter 41 - We won, but at what cost?

Heith looked out at the remnants of his forces. He had called for a retreat after seing half the forest be vaporized. He knew that there was no point in trying to fight a losing battle. He stood up on his throne, looking at the mortal commander, while the mortal commander stared back at him. Less than half his men had survived, and all of thejr vehicles had been destroyed. They had even lost the Brios. Heith looked down at the reports his general had brought him. Even if the dragons had been here, it would not have mattered. "We are leaving." Heith said as he looked at his advisors. Fall back to the espsonia mountains. We will garrison there while I decide what to do from here. And bring me the manaphone. Tch." Heith said as he spit on the ground. He would remember this loss, and make sure these other worlders suffered for it.
