Orelious 4th era 1st imperial civil war year 600 July 21, thajmil creek
The first battle of the fourth era civil war within the empire
Nazeteve was moving out to Thajmil Creek in a platoon of 500 to combat 600 some odd troops from the empire. Nazeteve and his five friends Rodzo, Silmin, Nazebras, Brennk Tistam, and silal as well as 2 unknown privates and 2 unknown Corporal and became nervous as his unit approached the would be battlefield. Their commander Brennk had ordered them to get into position and wait for the battle to start and to have their swords, weapons, and magic spells ready for war. They could see several imperial soldiers ready to attack as they want to continue forward to crush any resistance against the empire, Nazeteve readied his sword in his right hand and fire spell in his left hand. After 20 minutes the time had come to begin the bloody battle as they charged each other and Nazeteve is knocked to the ground almost immediately and is almost slain by a imperial auxiliary unit but is saved by Rodzo who stabs a smitcher through the young auxiliary's back, killing him almost instantly and he tells Nazeteve to follow him and the rest of their unit around the enemy's right flank for a surprise attack from behind to gain the upper hand.
Nazeteve follows Rodzo along with 50 other soldiers to go around the right flank in which they come out and from behind they strike and Nazeteve slices a Archer across his back then stabbing him as he laid on the ground through the back dealing the killing blow, Rodzo also did the same move against the Archer next to the other one before using his combat training to kill three more soldiers simultaneously which surprised Nazeteve at his friends quick movements and how fast he had overtaken the other archers who were usually always in the back of the lines. They then moved through with a sneak attack behind enemy lines and started closing in on the empire from all sides, making quick work of the enemy soldiers. Nazeteve slices through another imperial Archer and Rodzo stabs through one of the camp guards before pushing the imperials on the retreat from the battlefield. Nazeteve then uses his fire spell to help burn the imperial encampment and Rodzo and the others come to seize any weapons and anything else useful such as resources and important documents. Suddenly Rodzo bellowed in pain as an arrow had pierced his shoulder fired from an Archer on a hill coming with a small garrison of archers coming to try and retake the encampment.
They take cover behind some Shields and try to push for a Frontline point to hold back the archers. Some rebel archers came to the aid hiding behind the ones with Shields and opened fire a barrage of arrows of their own on the imperial archers killing at least a dozen and taking only 1 casualty of their own. The imperials had to retreat once again as they took more casualties finally fleeing the battlefield and Nazeteve helped Rodzo to one of the healers to have the arrow removed from his shoulder and healed. Nazeteve and his men survived this time but only because the empire underestimated them and their abilities, knowing the next battle might not be so easy. The aftermath of the battle left 83 rebels dead and many injured and about 100 imperials dead and more injured totalling 183 deaths but was a starting victory for the rebels as they took the encampment and had the imperials retreating.
