Merideth had figured out that she could cast cure minor wounds repeatedly without tiring, and while she couldn't keep up with the rate the orcs were dishing damage, she could at least keep the damage fairly distributed. Athan, despite his whining about the lack of heroism, was responsible for forcing a lot of orcs to drop out of the battle, reducing the casualties on Athan's side. And Greppa was really being a pain in the neck to any orc that even remotely seemed to be doing well.Orcs don't train in blindfighting, it would appear.Aside from individual accomplishments, however, they also knew that reinforcements were due to arrive any day, and Theralis has a huge military. Aside from the 10-11 thousand youths who were in Service that particular year, every able-bodied adult could was trained to pick up a spear and march to war in need.What they didn't know at the time, was that those reinforcements weren't on their way, at least not yet.</blockquote>
