Alfred Barclay pulled tightly at the reins of his steed throughout the fight - swapping horses as a common occurence, felling at the very least a few Veletzians before meeting the face of a pike & suffering a harsh wound.. Nevertheless - they stood victorious.

Gregorius Roa, an already aged man cleans his spear's tip which had impaled 3 Veletzers in the war, only receiving a minor scrap on his face which he cleaned off amidst the battle "Revenge…" the man said to himself  remembering the times Veletzers had bandited his family and friends "The Roads è all tu can win in, I can see that now"

Konstantin gripped the reins of a horse that stood at the wayside of the road following the conclusion of the battle. Several lances, and two fine Mardonlander Chargers had been slain under him in the course of the fearsome melee. Leading this newfound steed onwards, he rejoined his good friend, Aimo @ColdestPepsi as they returned towards the main Covenant force as it regrouped, a wide smile held under his helm for the victory in Balian. "I think a Haeseni knight owes a drink after this one, my friend." He said with a laugh before continuing onwards.

The Prince of Merryweather tossed his broken lance aside and cried "The Lord is our shield, King John is our sword!" alongside his Aaunic brothers-in-Arms

"We did it lads. The Lord is our shield, and King John our sword, and all that!" 

Boon, famous and illustrious half of Boon & Bane's international conglomerate, slowly step by step returned back home with sweat dripping from him. Promptly returning back to his duties of babysitting the young Prince Charlie! @Olox_

Ser Robyn de Lyons would charge on foot, armor dirtied and battered from his horse being felled beneath him, cheering "In Signo Vinces! Deus nos conservat!" as he'd mill about the field, looking for the last survivors as he'd help defend his homeland

Gob Ztabba-Zniffa had ridden to battle on his might 'wagh' pony called "GIT KLOMPAH". His tin-hat wobbling, the mail around his face shimmering in the Bailanese sun and the jester bells ringing - tolling the death of the unhonourable bruddahz.
Valiantly did this Goblin in tin-can mockup of a Petran Knight armor fight - with his spear in front as sharp as his long large nose pointing out over the mail, destroying the enemy horse's kneecaps. "FO DA REXDUM OHV PEE-UTRA! AGH FO MI BIG WAGH MACHINE BUDDI QUEEN SYBILLE!" did the 'Kloppah-Klompah' scream over the sounds of the battle.

Afterwards one could see him gathering 2 whole horse worth of war loot! ..and keeping the golden horse armor for himself.

As Princess Eirene scavenged the battlefield for equipment in the wake of the battle she caught a glimpse of an imposing Balianese Hippo taking a post-battle shit on the mangled body of a Veletzian Soldier. "Good Shit." She commented as she plucked a fresh lance from the field.

Artel stands, brushing himself off and looking at the burned land before him, his horse fallen by his foes. He looks to the ring on his hand "GOTT, ich love this thing" he turns and catches sight of a group of high ranking orcs, with a smile he draws his saber and charges "IGNIRE!" he roars as he charges, the ring once again waking up to help the Flamebringer live up to his name.

Tiber, an Aaunite infanteer on march throughout the jungles of Balian reminisces on the green horrors he had to endure, himself being an Elf more inclined to the temperance of mild Heartlandic weather, "One day it started raining and it didn't quit for 4 months we've been through every kind of rain there is a little bit of stinging rain and big ol' fat rain rain that flew in sideways and sometimes rain seemed to come straight up from underneath."

A Petran Mage-Knight hums as he crouches over a pile of looted swords, waving his hand over each in turn with a golden glow. "That one's alright- That one's very alright- That one won't last a day," He reports, picking and choosing only the best to take back. He lifts one blade aloft to the sun, letting the light glint off it with a slight, wry smile, only slightly dampened by his bloodied nose. "A full armory is a very kind way for them to apologize- If only it were enough."

As his pike found its point within the chest of the last Veletzian in his sight for miles, the Master Alchemist of Reinmar, Klaus von Berkhoven, would take in the sight of even the Balian hippopotamuses assisting the leal soldiers of the Grand Covenant. “Truly GOTT is on our side!” The Berkhoven called as he commandeered an abandoned and stubborn horse, riding off with allied forces. “THIS IS OUR PEACE!” He shouted the coined phrase of the largest combined force seen by Descendantkind.

Josef Denodado rode on his horse with the rest of the Coalition coming across bodies of Adrians, Stassionites, and Krug, taking his time as he collected loot for the war effort from the Hyspian front.

He came across a Orc and collected the Warg Horn the Uruk had on his hip as a trophy before riding further and found an interesting sight as he looted the body of a Veletzian or Stassionite, it was hard to make out the colors with all the blood, but he had found some wine, Dwarven in origin as he looked at the label “Mi amor will love this!” He smiles as he placed it securely in the bag on his horse before hopping back on to rejoin the Hyspian army on their return trip, his armor and helmet were dented greatly from the conflict.. seems he needs to get his armor repaired and buffed out!

 

”VIVA DIOS, VIVA HYSPIA, VIVA BANDERAS, VIVA DENODADO!” He called out as he rode beside his familia and houseguard that were present at the battle.

Aimo grinned as he slid Katana from flesh, then going to wipe the blood of the faithless off his new weapon. As he took in the sea of opposing bodies, he couldn't help but revel in the sight, only being taken out of his own world when his friend Sir Konstantin addressed him. "Ye, that he might. Though we did good work today Kon, more will stack up. I only hope the fires can keep up with the amount of dead." With that he joined his compatriot, already impatient for the next battle.

Irena Kortrevich dragged herself toward home to face a more fearsome kind of battle. Trying to get the triplets to sleep at the same time.
