For a moment, the enemy backed off. Allowing us to regain ourselves. I looked around, trying to figure out how much we have left. Simply put, not much. A few orcs walked over to me, with flags in hand. Then, one with high ranking armor rode in on a horse. "So this is the great war, Dovakiin?" He asked. "This is what's left of it. This is the result. This is everything but a war, they are cutting my men in half and I can't do a damn thing about it." I said. "Why not just pull them out and save them then?" He said. "You try telling them that. I've tried, many times. If I left, they would fight on their own. This is their land, and they will die protecting it. I'm not turning my back, so many died for me. I'll stand with them until my final breath." I said. "That's very noble of you, boy. I came to aid. I've seen how Skyrim has been to my people. I wish to keep it that way so I will help in hopes Skyrim will remain and allow my people to come and go as they please." He said as another charge from the enemy started. "That would be much appreciated right now. We can use any and all help." I told him. "But, what if this is not the correct side? What if I join the falmer and conquer this land and then have some to myself? What is stopping me?" He questioned me. "Nothing. If you wish to join the enemy, go join them now. I'll fight your men until I fall as well. So pick your side and place your bets." I told him. He pulled out his sword, which looked like a giant meat cleaver, and raised it into the air. My men stood ready to fight back at any given moment. "Orcs!" He yelled. I put my hand on the hilt of my blade and gripped my shield even stronger. "For Skyrim!" He screamed as he charged across a grassy plain, straight into the enemy. Then, hundreds of orcs chased after him from a tree line. Alexia walked over to me. "Guess that means he's on our side?" She asked in a joking manner. "Seems so." I said back with a smile as we walked away.
