He checks the blow and then charges into Edwyn shoulder first, smashing the shield against Edwyn's chest and knocking him onto his back into the mud. The bastard takes a step back and laughs, "Some warrior you are..." he taunts with a grin, giving him a chance to get up. Edwyn clambers to his feet, and gives his sword a flick to get the mud off it. He stares the bastard down and edges his way towards him. When he is close enough, he lets out a yell and feigns an overhead, actually bringing the swing down to try to hit his sword arm. The bastard dashes backwards, so his feign was for naught, as his second swing misses. The bastard laughs and holds his sword ahead of him. Edwyn can see Edric attempting to flank him, with blood on his sword.

Edwyn growls and attempts to hit the bastard's sword out of the way so he can smash him with his shield, being sure to stay on the opposite side of Edric.

The bastard attempts to swing at Edwyn and he successfully parries the bastard's attack. Edwyn follows up with a shield bash which hits the bastard in the face. Blood sprays from his mouth as it hits. Edric begins to sneak up on him and is about to strike when he slips in the mud. "Hnnng." he grunts as he falls onto his back. The bastard looks at Edwyn and kicks his shield back, pushing him backwards in the mud. He grins as blood poors from his nose and mouth. He wipes it away and then turns to retreat to his men. "TO ME!" he yells, and two soldiers cover his retreat, one begins to walk towards Edric, halberd in hand.

Edwyn attempts to swing his sword and hack the tip off the man's halberd, and then close in to kill him. He swings at the head of the halberd, but it is reinforced with iron bracings and it doesn't break. However the attack knocks the halberd to the side, opening the man up for attack, Edwyn closes in and shoves the sword through his heart. Edric pulls himself to his feet, "I'm sorry my lord... lost my footing. MY LORD BEHIND YOU!"

Edric pulls himself to his feet, "I'm sorry my lord... lost my footing. MY LORD BEHIND YOU!" Edwyn quickly swings around, bringing his shield around to meet any possible attacks. As he turns a mace collides with his shield, the force of the swing knocks him to one knee. The mace soldier slams down on his shield two more times before Edric comes behind him and sticks his blade through his heart. He nods at Edwyn after the soldier falls to the ground. "THEY ARE RETREATING!" Edwyn hears a voice call out. He surveys the battlefield and sees the Caswell troops running away. The men begin to cheer and shout insults to the fleeing troops. Edwyn sees Lord Stephas Collinner, pulling his sword out of the corpse of a Caswell soldier, blood and mud and sweat covering his face. He turns and sees Edwyn as well. He walks towards him, blood sweat and mud covering his face. "What's the order my lord?"

He cracks the shaft off the arrow embedded in his shoulder and tosses it into the mud. When Lord Collinner approaches, Edwyn replies "Order all archers to let loose on the traitorous bastards until they can no longer be seen on the horizon... And have the infantry retreat to the trenches on the off chance they try to regroup and come back..." He swipes some mud off his knee and begins to wipe his sword down with a cloth before asking, "What are the casualty reports looking like, Lord Collinner?"

We'll drink to him tonight yes?" he looks as if he is about to cry but he doesn't, "What of the bastard. Did you avenge your uncle?"

"We'll see him at Akrivea... then you can finish him, for Thomas." he looks off towards the enemies and most of the Akrivean force is gone, aside from a few stragglers and wounded. "Shall we get back to town and get your wound checked out?" Edric, still covered in mud looks up and says, "It was a good battle my lord, it was an honor to serve you."
