Fighting a battle is partially about how your side performs, but mainly it relies on the cooperation of the opponent.
Those Dwarfs, for some reason, had a brain lapse and made a big show of lining up for battle, only to run away without fighting.
What's more, they didn't just run; they split up to run, as if fearing there were too many of them on one side, making it difficult for the Lady to kill them.
So, considerately, they divided their army into small troops of one to two hundred people, proving what it meant to gather as a hard bone, scatter as soft dumplings.
Restricted by their racial traits, the Dwarf Warriors were naturally short with equally short legs, making their retreat slow, how could they possibly outrun the Empire's Cavalry?
