Remember that quote of yours Skrimir? Remember how Soren said that it'd be completely idiotic for the person to accept the challenge? Hopefully Zelgius beating the stupid out of him will help him remember that in the future.
Chapter 4-3 - The Generals Hand: Finished.
Ike, Soren, & Mist: Stayed together, Mist healing them if they got hurt by the fairly strong opponents, while Soren and Ike made good use of their support to avoid getting too seriously injured and took out the foes. They headed up the path, leaving the ledges for Mordecai, and Mist healed one of Skrimirs injured soldiers, though the other one was killed by a ballista. Once they reached the ledge guarding the first ballista, Soren blasted the mage from below, and then Ike climbed up and smacked down the ballistician with his Wind Edge, before the weapon broke, leaving him to deal with a few more ranged foes. Soren and Mist climbed up after him, and they mopped up the nearby enemies before Soren drew out the enemies waiting above them. He also took down the dracoknights that flew in, and then the trio climbed to the top and assisted Mordecai with the remaining enemies. Soren then took down the boss after Mordecai attacked him, and also struck down his lackey, so that Ike and Ranulf could arrive.
Mordecai: Equipped a Pass scroll, and climbed his way up the mountain with ease, doing his best to save Skrimirs forces when he could. He took out the initial people guarding the first ledge after using his Laguz stone, and then pushed his way up the mountain, cutting through any foes who would seriously threaten the other laguz forces whenever he could. He munched on some Olivi Grass when he needed to, and continued his charge up the mountain, pushing through the enemies who attacked him after he finished climbing the first section. He then leaped straight to the top of the mountain and started ripping through the enemies up there while the others were still climbing. They met up, Ike and Mist taking care of the annoying ranged foes, while Mordecai and Soren took down the boss.
Ranulf: Followed a safe distance behind Ike's group until he needed to Arrive. He rescued one of Skrimirs soldiers so he wouldn't run off and get himself killed.
Skrimirs forces: 2 survivors.
Callum: Fought with Soren and Mordecai, the latter of which smacked one in the face before shrugging off the counter attack, and the former whom finished him with an Elwind spell.
Up Next: We deal with an even stupider person, though at least this one is an enemy, and not the general of our army. Mordecai also has to step out for this chapter, but we'll get him back soon.
