Rise of the Horde

"Since when were you able to summon that one?" Xiao Chen asked and turned towards Draegh'ana, who was smiling proudly as she observed her summons.

"Spirits guide me, lend me your power, and bring forth what I desire. The wild plains and with the aid of the stars, bring forth thy creature that I request. Descend and let them witnessed your speed, Kaprihkhorn." Draegh'ana had her hands on the ground once again and ignored the question of her chieftain. A new magic circle appeared, but this time the runes on it were glowing green, unlike the first one, which glowed dark brown and the second, which was a combination of blue and white.

The first to emerge were curved horns that resembled that of some demons. "A demon! Taurens! Prepare yourselves!" Mohrios shouted as he brandished his halberd and he leaned forward as he prepared to charge at the emerging creature. They were familiar with the looks of the demons and their presence, and it freaked them out to see one slowly rising from the solid ground.

"Calm yourselves, you cousin of the bulls. It's just her summons." Adhalia commented and pointed a finger at Draegh'ana, who was sweating furiously as she summon her third creature. She is forcing herself to break her threshold of only being able to summon two creatures at once.

"Don't force it if you can't. We have the trolls and taurens with us to deal with the centaurs." Xiao Chen said as he was worried about Draegh'ana. He noticed that she was in pain but was just enduring it.

A few more moments passed and Draegh'ana's last summon was fully out of the magic circle. It had the head of a goat, the torso and hands of a man, a furry tail that swayed from side to side, and a pair of legs that were that of a goat. "A satyr?" Mohrios scratched his head as he observed the newly summoned creature. Satyrs were creatures that were full of tricks. They loved nothing more than causing havoc and tricking their victims with their pranks, which sometimes leads to the death of their victims.

"Meh... I am no satyr... I am Capricorn, a spirit of the stars. Don't lump with those vile creatures. Meh... Only serve my master in whatever she needs." Capricorn bended her waist forward and bowed to Draegh'ana, who was panting and full of sweat.

"And you can talk." Mohrios was taken aback as he stared in disbelief at satyr looking creature. Adhalia facepalmed and pointed a finger at the leader of the taurens, "You yourself are a talking bull. Why can't it be possible for their to be a talking goat?"

"Ugh... You're right..." Mohrios automatically responded, but then shook his head. "We are taurens, not bulls,taurens..." Mohrios snorted in annoyance.

"Sure...sure... Whatever you say you talking bull." Adhalia replied as she focus her attention on the creature that was a mix of man and goat. "Meh... Meh only interested in my master's wishes and has no desire for other things. Stop looking at me like I am some rare creature... Meh..." Capricorn walked forward and stood beside his master like a loyal servant waiting for orders.

"Bear, eagle en goat. What is next, wi trolls waiting." the leader of the trolls pointed a finger at each of Draegh'ana's summons as he spoke.

Xiao Chen walked forward and stared eye to eye with Capricorn, who was only a few inches taller than him, mainly because of the horns. "Capricorn right, can you fight?" he asked the goat. "Meh will fight if meh master wants to." the goat responded as he glanced at his master.

"Hmmm... Interesting... Trolls go and hit those centaurs. Remember what you have learned. Show me what you guys are capable of." Xiao Chen said as he glanced at the trolls who were looking at Draegh'ana with anticipation. They were waiting what will the female orc summon next.

"Wi trolls will show dem! Let's guh en av sum fun."

"Brothas let's guh"

The leader of the trolls rallied his kin, and they sprinted towards the centaurs, who were busy running around the wheat fields and trampling the crops under their hooves.

"Mohrios, get your kin to block their likely escape route. The northern side." Xiao Chen stared at Mohrios and the rest of the taurens while pointing a finger at the foot of the Teka'rr Mountains.

Mohrios nodded his head and waved a hand towards his brethren, and they marched towards the north.

"Draegh'ana, get your summons to disturb the centaurs so that they won't focus all their forces on the trolls." he muttered next. "And Adhalia, guard her while she is recovering her strength and please no more battle of words." he continued.

Adhalia nodded her head as she unsheathed her blade, which was a very thin and straight blade which looks like a huge needle.

"Go and show them what you are capable of." Draegh'ana commanded her summons. "Meh shall obey, master." Capricorn replied as he charged forward towards the taurens with great speed. The Great Bear roared towards the sky and sprinted after Capricorn while the Eagle up above released a shrill cry and dove in the middle of the centaurs and clawing at them with its talons.

Xiao Chen unsheathed his blade and headed towards the centaurs atop his steed. His target were the small groups since he has no plans of dying. He will just stretched his limbs a bit while keeping a close watch of the progress of the battle.

*****

"I don't know if you are brave or stupid to come after us alone." a centaur said as he pointed his weapon at Xiao Chen, who was slowly walking towards them.

"He is stupid. No need to waste your words on him." another centaur butted in as he shook his head. "Let's trample him! Let's go." the centaurs cheered as they gathered together and galloped towards the lone orc who was still slowly making his way towards them.

"Let's go buddy... Ram them through!" Xiao Chen said as he caressed the back of his Rhakaddon, who snorted in reply and increased its pace.. The three horns of the Rhakaddon gleamed with danger as it stormed forward towards the dozen centaurs who were also charging towards them and its rider.
