 Led by [[Rayjok Halperion]] the [[Jalinjeri]] divisions formed the vanguard and charged into the forward [[Garis]] divisions, separated from the rest of the army by the newly formed river.  The debris in the river made it difficult, if not impossible to ford, thus there was no escape for the [[Garis]] who were decimated by the combined forces of the [[Jalinjeri military]].  From screaming [[Grendel]] flowing between their ranks, the relentless rain of arrows from [[Ælf]]en bows, to the deadly wrath of the allied dragons, the [[Grendel]] vanguard was soon on its knees.

 While the [[Garis]] had the most well-trained and well equipped military in all of [[Otan]] the [[Karazalik military]] was a comparative joke.  They were poorly, if at all, trained and equipped with stone age weapons.  While their slingers were reputed to be deadly, they were only slingers.  The [[Garis]] expected to sweep through [[Karazalik]] in a few days after the fall of [[Anar]] and the [[Ontustik|Caliphate of Ontustik]].

 The sixty divisions of heavily armed [[Garis]] arrayed themselves in the mountain pass in southern Jalinjeri, their rear flanks protected by mountains on either side.  They did not expect a large contingent of the [[Karazalik military]] to come up on their rear, but did not concern themselves as they did not consider the [[Karazalik]] to be a viable threat.
-To the north of the [[Garis]], the [[Jalinjeri]] forces made up the vanguard, with [[Soltustik]] and [[Maercland]] divisions on either flank respectively.  Interspersed among all of the defending divisions to the north were the [[Ælf]]en archers who provided continuous and deadly support to the infantry.  In all nearly 600,000 [[Grendel]] troops faced off against a combined force of nearly one and a half million souls, arrayed in 144 divisions.

 Given the success of the [[Garis military]] and the superiority of their weapons, the lack of numbers was of little concern to their general, [[Zhannur Timurlan]].  Each of the generals of the defending forces knew, however, that had they not joined together on this day, they would only have had to wait for the day when they would have had to face this army alone.
