Well, Cayo has finally seen his first large scale battle (yes, although he's Captain rank in the Legion, he has always been kind of a "lone wolf" in his missions...too often they're too "paranormal" to get someone else involved). It happened after some kind of Orc-Dremora mix race/monsters attacked and destroyed Aleswell. Cayo received word both from another Legion Captain and from the Legion HQ to go thought the Jerall Mountains and into Skyrim, more precisely at some plains south of that province, in order to destroy that threat forever. He, as commanded, went thought some obscure tunnels and reached (again) the province where he once lived, then crossed the battlefield until the Cyrodiilic army camp. He introduced himself to the Legion General, and had a little chat with him before both hitting the bed (it was night time already, and the battle -the General said-, would begin the next morning).
Maybe Cayo has faced many horrors in his missions, but those situations (plus a big combat the next day) are intimidating by nature, and he admitted he was a bit nervous. In any case, he needed to rest, so after a deep breath of the night's refreshing air and putting his thoughs in order, he went to his tent and slept for a bit.
The next day, both armies set up each in front of the other. Cayo was still a bit unsure, but kept his head cool enough to anolyze the troops' disposition*. And despite being nervous before the beginning of the combat, in the end Cayo acted admirably in the battlefield. At the "ATTACK!!" order, he didn't flinch a bit and threw a massive nuclear blast at the furthest group of enemies, calcinating them instantly**, then charged himself against the enemy's General, killing him both with magic and blade. Although his warrior's fury had fully awakened, he tried as hard as he could not to harm his allies, drawing enemies out of the battlefield before finishing them off, and helping troubled allies with targeted, fail-safe spells. Naturally, at the end of the battle, the Legion was victorious, and those foul beasts made a nice (and big) bonfire
/Cayo was condecorated for his bravery and received 9 Fame points after this battle.*Allies: Around 20. Enemies: Around 40. So yes, we were a bit outnumbered.
**The image of an entire group of those bastards getting calcinated by it was just.....glorious :drool:
