Bab 511: Collapse

There would still be people fishing out rusting pieces of armor many years after the battle. They would take the opportunity to start a huge discussion about the legend of that battle, especially the parts about the female combatants from the Land of Fragrance and the mysterious death of the Commander of the Golden Roc army.

Like all legends, the two portions of the battle were largely exaggerated by the story-tellers. The audience, regardless of gender, loved even more to hear about how ferociously the female combatants charged into their enemy, as if they were divine soldiers who had come down from heaven, and hacked their way through an opposing force many times larger, defeating them. As a result, the ferocity of the women from the Land of Fragrance became so widely known that even the swordsmen from the Great Snowmountain were slightly less on par with them, much less the ordinary men from their own nation.
