The Swords Of Night And Day (2004) - Plot & Excerpts
He had no wish to be skylined and seen, so he dismounted and removed his helm before creeping up to the crest. When he looked over, his breath caught in his throat. Stavut had been right. On the plain below were thousands of marching men and columns of horses. Bringing up the rear were two regiments of Jiamads. The army stretched all the way back to a distant line of hills. Gilden hunkered down and tried to gauge the numbers of the enemy. He estimated there to be at least twenty thousand fighting men, plus the two thousand Jiamads. In the vanguard he saw the riders of the Eternal Guard, in their armor of black and silver. Like the Legend riders they wore elaborate chain-mail hauberks, coifs, and gorgets. They also carried sabers and lances, and round bucklers on their left forearms. The thousand men of the Eternal Guard were the elite of the Eternal’s army, handpicked for their valor in other regiments. Then he saw the Eternal herself, dressed in armor of bright silver, riding a white horse.
