Phew! This chapter took the life out of me (literally). I bet you will enjoy the last part. 

Note: War takes place in this chapter. Like a full description of war, the battle formations, etc. 

I am from India, and according to our legends and myths, battles have formations and they fight according to that rule. I tried to bring that in here. If you have no interest in war and blah blah blah skip to the last part. It reveals who Dawn is. That being said, we have only six more (including epilogue) chapters to go! Whoops! I plan on hitting the complete button on my birthday. Hope I will be able to accomplish that. :)

Also, thank you for the 1k votes on this book! I love you all so much. Let's jump into the chapter.

For the first few days of the battle, no formation was formed by either of them. They just clashed like two prides of lions fighting for their territory. It was not until the fifth day, Romplain whispered the how he knew the vyuhashashtra, the study off battle formation.

Caelin had given him a passive look and commanded him to get started. The other Commanders opposed to the notion, but his word was final. They could have voiced against him, but that would have been useless. They knew it.

The first formation had been a heron on the sixth day. From the place where he stood, it appeared like a bird gliding with its wings half open, sort of bent. The body was streamlined and the tail was with cavalry. The beak of the formation appeared weak. The wings had cavalry too, but the body had mainly all the men strong on their feet.

The war call was near to their side. It took place close enough to their base. The pass of Osryn and Daydra was completely blocked. The war took place at the crown of Than. They were at even more at advantage than Yerinah. The Fields of Than was surrounded by Tantalia in the south and Samariya in the north. The aid from both the countries came pretty quick. But Icathus's army never attacked them, despite Mika giving him enough information.

The cavalrymen who had stood in the formation or Vyuha had heavy protection. Holia had taken the tail of the bird, Lephar the right wing and Kraine the other wing. Lyette was in the centre of the body and as much as Caelin hated, Lyho had led the front. They had taken their respective parts of the army under them and had waited. The Guardians had merged among the men. They knew about these formations better than anyone. Not to mention Gideon was the Guardian of the war. But they refused to open their mouth in these matters.
