Iorveth's group continued to fire arrows into the army, picking off good amount of people in a small amount of time. It wasn't long before the generals directed some free cavalry to charge their position however, them reaching the treeline in almost no time at all.

Iorveth and his group retreated into the forest at the cavalry attempted to follow, but they were greeted by two large reptilian eyes glaring at them from the foliage.

Saskia in her dragon form burst out of the trees and bit one man completely in half before moving onto the next as the squad of men prompted their horses to flee, horrified at what they'd just run into.

Saskia gives a loud roar as she tramples a couple more horsemen, all the while Iorveth continues to fire arrows at any vulnerable enemies.

The Flame Guard had already run in-front of the city, forming a wall with their tower shields as the cavalry fortunate enough to not have fallen into the lava created by Quelaag charge them. They stand stead fast and ignite their pyromancy flames while casting Iron Flesh.

The calvary give sadistic grins as the prepare to trample the tower shield-bearing men under their mounts, but are surprised to find themselves colliding with them as if they'd just ridden into a stone wall. Their horses crumple under their momentum enhanced weight, dying instantly as the riders are thrown over the Flame Guards, into the arms of the Pyreblades who easily slaughter them.

Yennefer and Keira cast small mana efficient area of effect spells that literally disintegrate groups of soldiers as they attempt to advance towards the city, their focus more on their target and the dragons above them than the witches, making it incredibly hard to dodge their spells.

The Kaedweni weren't helpless, however, their archers released a volley of arrows towards the Flame Guard and while they easily blocked it, the same couldn't be said for the Pyreblades, many getting hit in places their armour didn't cover. To the dismay of the enemy though, Rhea stepped forth and cast Great Heal, instantly bringing them all back to pique performance and rendering the lucky Kaedweni blows futile.

Mensfeld watches this with a horrified expression, his large cavalry being played with as if they were untrained peasants. *THACK* An arrow lands nearby him causing his horse to rear up and throw him from it's back. A general tries to help him up but they're shot in the temple which kills them instantly, fear forces the false king up despite his heavy armour, him quickly finding refuse behind his other generals, just in time for an arrow clearly meant for him to hit another in the chest... "AS KING I COMMAND OU TO FIX THESE SIEGE ENGINES!" He screams like a dying animal.

"SIRE! We cannot! They've been rendered inoperable unless we dismantle them and use their parts to fix-"

The Kaedweni infantry had almost reached the city, but the Prospects were still sitting back under the order of Risryn, she wanted to wait for them to get closer to prevent them all fleeing when they inevitably started dropping like flies. The enemy force was quite substantial, thousands strong, but nowhere near the might of the around eight hundred Prospects.

The Infantry had gotten a good distance to the city and had now started charging towards the Flame Guard, fire rained down on them killing ten or even a hundred of them. Quelaag, Quelana and Quelina all working in conjunction with each other to blast the soldiers with chaotic red flames, leaving nothing but melted steel covered in ash.

Their charge had slowed due to the magical assault but they'd almost reached the Flame Guard, a roar signalled their imminent attack, which is when the Prospects started streaming out of the city. Each had a weapon unique to themselves through their centuries of combat training in Raslan, and each was comparable to the most skilful warriors this world had to offer.

A Kaedweni infantry tries to stab at Kuretz as they charge at each other, but he ducks under the stab and slams his spiked metal fist into their face, destroying their helmet and shattering their skull in one blow, immediately moving onto the next. "AHA! FIGHT ME!" he shouts, even more blood splattering against his mask as he travels.

Talem uses his glaive to sweep the legs of a trio attempting to surround him, jabbing them in the throats and killing them with ease afterwards.

Risryn is covered in Fold Energy as she moves in between the soldiers, giving small stabs and slashing to their vitals which all prove to be fatal. She's a blur to the soldiers who are unable to defend against the unseen strikes dealt by her. A Fold Energy enhanced kick from her caves in a breastplate and crushes the unfortunate man's heart and lungs.

A few soldiers notice the disparity in combat ability, not having their senses overwhelmed by the battle yet and try to flee, only to be cut down by the generals for being traitors and deserters.

Siegelinde was in the midst of the battle as well, every swipe of her Zweihander dealing with multiple opponents at once, the chaos infused blade acting like a hot knife through butter, easily crippling or killing any enemy she came across. No one was mocking her armour now, it easily shrugging off the heaviest of blows leaving her to go completely on the offensive.

She lifts her weapon high and brings it down on a single unlucky man, bisecting him with ease and causing those nearby to piss themselves with fear. Them being unable to move for fear of death from their superiors and the enemy, leaving them easy targets for the Prospects.
