Y/n's caravan marches to the site of the great maw. Once they arrive Y/n and Vogg approach with other ogres.
The gaping pit with teeth sharp as steel that seems almost bottomless.
Bao approaches and looks down into the Maw
Bao: It is hungry.
Vogg looks at Bao.
Vogg: The maw is always hungry.
Bao: It wants something specific. Something it can smell.
Vogg was dumbfounded.
Vogg: Wait! The maw speak to you?!
Bao: Yes. It wants a heart?
Y/n immediately thought of the deamon heart in his satchel. He took it out and threw it into the Maw.
Bao: It is satisfied. It wants to thank you!
The ground around them shakes as the ogres are dumbfounded at the events unfolding before their eyes.
The maw for probably the first time, let out a loud belch as a shield popped out and landed in front if Y/n.
Y/n looked at the shield, it was a mix of bone and metal. It didn't have a distinct pattern but looked almost like a primitive shield.
Y/n picks the shield up and examines it.
Y/n: I will wield this gift with pride.
Y/n replaces his shield with this new gift from the Maw.
Vogg goes to gather more mournfangs for cavalry, at the same time gathering sabretusks to bolster numbers.
Y/n goes on a scouting mission with Kilgaz on foot.
The two walk down a path.
Y/n: Kilgaz. Do you believe your people are doomed?
Kilgaz: What do you mean?
Y/n: Do you believe that your people will never learn that their gods care not about them?
Kilgaz: I was thinking about that. And I have an idea. I know of a smaller herd that might be easier to change.
Y/n: That is a crazy idea. I like it. If you know where they are then we can go there eventually.
Kilgaz nods and they continue walking down the path.
They managed to get in viewing distance of the great hall of Greasus. They got a vantage point and looked at the guards.
Kilgaz: Look at the armor on them. We will need something to pierce it.
Y/n: Yes. But I feel like that is the least of our worries. I see gorgers in there, they will no doubt charge into our infantry.
Kilgaz: Skitek mentioned about mobile artillery platforms. Maybe we should test them out?
Y/n: Brilliant! If those platforms work then even our artillery can't slow us down.
Kilgaz nods and the two go back to the caravan. Skitek finishes the mobile artillery platforms, so the caravan goes ahead and lays siege to the hall of Greasus.
The mobile artillery platforms gives them a better spread of their artillery which allows them to cover a larger area.
The ogres inside begin to get impatient with the siege and storm out to meet Y/n's forces head on. The wall of ogres charging at them makes Y/n's forces waver. But Y/n takes the front and raises his shield high.
Y/n: Their God chooses us! Do not fear them when they have been forsaken by their own deity!
Y/n's men let out a cheer as the ogres keep their charge. They smash into the frontline as the battle commences.
Greasus can be seen on his mobile cart as he rides into battle.
Y/n: Wallo!
Wallo cuts the head off a fallen ogre and looks at Y/n.
Y/n: Bring me his head! *points sword at Greasus*
Wallo nods and begins to run towards Greasus. He is stopped by a gorger who attempts to grab him. Wallo jumps and stabs the gorger through the head to kill him, then continues on his way.
Greasus sees Wallo charging at him and chuckles while riding towards him.
Wallo sees this and sees a rock facing upwards. He waits for a bit then runs up the rock.
He jumps off and lands on Greasus as he charges underneath. Wallo plunges his blade into Greasus's heart as the fat ogre let's out a shout of pain.
Wallo twists his blade as Greasus dies and his weapon hits the ground.
Wallo pulls his blade out and let's out a victorious battle cry.
Bao sees the carnage from the safety of a caravan cart. He puts his hand to the ground.
Bao: We need your help to end this. Will you help us?
The ground begins to shake as both armies stop fighting for a moment.
The ground opens up beneath a large group of Greasus's ogres and swallows them up.
Greasus's ogres get terrified, knowing that it was the doing of the great maw. They shatter their ranks and run away in fear.
With the defeat of Greasus, the ogres are once more separated as a power vacuum will without doubt form.
For now at least, Cathay does not have to deal with any massive ogre armies. But Cathay is still in very great danger.
It is still under siege by dark elves, chaos and even lizardmen.
But first Y/n must report his success before he can help with anymore of Cathay's problems.
