Palejaw crept around the hill with his men. A dozen Ritgrs that didn't have anything better to be doing. Honestly, they were happy for the action. Sitting around Fordeth collecting dust was boring, especially when so much was happening in the south. They could have stayed behind like some of the others, growing fat and decadent. But these men and women were fighters. They wanted to kill. They were ready to do it for their country. Palejaw was the leader they were hoping for. He was the leader they believed in.
"So they went missing 'ere?"
"Yes, my lord. The tracks stop here. These tracks, this group of about twenty men turn around and take the two horses south."
"Mmm. Any idea 'o they were?"
"Not entirely. No one of importance I think."
"Whelp, let's lay a trap here. Fucking rebels will be marching right up the road again soon. Time to start knocking these bastards back into the dirt."
"Yes, my lord."
The dozen Ritgrs set a camp behind a nearby hill, posted a scout by the rise where the Royal Justean Guard troops had turned around, and waited. Palejaw was certain they would come this way again. It was the fastest route, and there had been no resistance the first time. It's what he would do.

Several hours later as a hundred RJG Marauders and five Hell Knights were cresting the hill Palejaw and his twelve men closed in on the top of it, putting the RJG on the low ground. The Ritgrs drew their weapons. Palejaw was right in the middle of the road. He stood there with his voulge in his hands, completely armed and armored. "I'll handle these dogs."One of the RJG Hell Knights stated, coming forward through the group. He singled Palejaw out, pointing at him and drawing his thumb across his neck, indicating a beheading in Palejaw's future. "Ah! You think you can take me? Scrub."Palejaw moved forward, to face his challenger one on one. He began his attack with three quick strikes, faster than the Hell Knight could counter or dodge. The first hit nailed the rebel warrior in the groin, shaving through muscle, bone, and artery. A blood splatter hit the ground as Palejaw pulled his weapon free, knocking the Hell Knight's hand away, cutting it in the process with his polearm. His final attack was another low one, cutting the rebel warrior across the thigh like it was nothing, cleaving through the armor and flesh with ease. Blood flew from the wound and ran profusely from the leg like a river. The Hell Knight tried to counter, his first attack was too short, and Palejaw simply turned to the side to dodge it. The second attack was a slash from right to left, even across the middle. The Magehunter backpedaled out of the way of that one easily, laughing.

Palejaw laughed, the hell knight had missed his chance to end the magehunter's life. He blew it. Palejaw ended it with a quick slash across the man's neck. Everyone had hung onto the moment. They all looked around at each other, wondering what to do next now that it was over. The Royal Justean Guard were shocked. One of their own Hell Knights hadn't lost a duel like this. They didn't know what to do. Everyone was standing around looking at each other. Palejaw laughed in disbelief. He couldn't understand it, why wasn't anyone doing anything? He switched his weapons and gestured to his enemies. "Kill 'em all. Fuck guys, come on. Shouldn't have to tell you."

As the Ritgr's charged in and started slicing through the Marauders, Palejaw engaged the remaining Hell Knights with his bow. Each time he knocked and arrow and fired it a bolt of lightning shot to his target. The first two shots were direct hits on the Hell Knight he was targeting, as were all the others. As the first one was going down, the other three began converging on the Mage Hunter. The Ritgr's held the high ground from the attacking marauders. Palejaw continued to fire, mowing down two more Hell Knights before the last one reached him. The Hell knight slashed high, hitting Palejaw in the head before he could get out of the way. The weapon bounced off the helmet without even denting or scratching it. Palejaw stopped for a second, the follow up blow missing him because of this, and began laughing. "All that, and you can't even 'urt me? What a waste."

Palejaw finished laughing and shot the Hell Knight with his bow. First in the lower leg, crippling him. Then he followed up with a point blank shot to the warrior's head. It exploded in a shower of sparks and brain gore. As the body slumped over Palejaw took to targeting the remaining marauders. He shoot at the feet of two of the fighters, crippling them both, then fired a follow up shot on the first one, killing him. The mage hunter couldn't accomplish much more than target his next enemy during the time frame. The fighting between the Royal Justean Guard's Marauders and the Sovereign Kingdom of Cruinthe's Ritgrs had grown fierce indeed. Several of the Ritgr's went down as the Marauders surrounded their enemies and finished them with sheer force of numbers. For every one Ritgr to fall though, two marauders went down with him or her. The hillside ran with the blood of Palejaws allies and enemies alike. For a moment he considered his options. Retreat wasn't one of them. It also seemed like the Royal Justean Guard's Marauders weren't retreating either. Even with their leadership dead. The four remaining Ritgrs circled up around Palejaw, one had the audacity to speak. "Sir, they're tougher than they look. There's too many of them.""We'll 'ave to even it out then."

As Palejaw kept firing into the crowd of Marauders, taking one of them down with each shot, his remaining Ritgrs began to drop. Their numbers cut in half once again. It seemed that there were just too many of the Royal Justean Guard's Marauders. Blood soaked the hill, bodies were littered everywhere. Twelve Ritgrs had been reduced to a mere two in the course of this battle. Yet Palejaw did not order a retreat. Though the Ritgr's were afraid of dying, they were more afraid of Palejaw. He wouldn't just kill them if they ran away. He would do terrible things to them before that. He had a reputation for cruelty and violence. They kept fighting, their weapons clashing against the marauders, bringing down seven of them on their own between the two of them. Palejaw had finished five of them himself in those scant seconds. His speed was inhuman. How could someone act that quickly, to be able to pull off five shots in the span that it took a well trained Ritgr to kill three men? The marauders didn't retreat. They believed in their monarch. They believed they were doing what needed to be done. They believed their numbers would win the day. There were forty of them left, and only three of their enemies remained standing.

After a time, the battle was over. The last of the twelve Ritgrs had fallen twenty long minutes before the last marauder fell. Palejaw had slew the Royal Justean Guard troops to the last. They wouldn't retreat, they wouldn't give up. There was nothing they could do to stop him though. Their weapons glided harmlessly off his armor, and his own weapons killed them efficiently. Eventually it boiled down to simply finishing off the last of them ruthlessly. None begged for mercy, several swore at him and cursed him.
Blood soaked the hill. Bodies littered the ground everywhere. Palejaw was unsatisfied with the results. The Ritgrs of this nation needed work. They needed to be improved upon, or there would never be a victory. He knew he couldn't do it alone and with that in mind he returned to Morith then traveled to Sorath.
