Failure isn't frightening; what's truly dreadful is losing everything.
This war is a textbook example of losing everything. While the goal of weakening the vassal races was indeed achieved, the cost was the Three Great Imperial Clans and the Seven Great Royal Clans paying the price together.
Famed across the continent for their heavy infantry, the Bearman Clan has become the biggest loser.
Faced with the overwhelming floodwaters, while the other Orcs were desperately fleeing for their lives, the Bearmen were busy unbuckling their armor.
The speed of the water far exceeded their speed at removing their armor. The heavy armor that once assured their survival now became their iron coffins.
While the main armies of other races were heavily injured, the Bearmen's frontline main army suffered complete annihilation.
Even the heavy cavalry fared better than them—having four legs made it easier to escape to higher ground and wait out the flood.
