| Grent's Fall | comment |
It has been seven years since King Osbert Grent overthrew the Stanley dynasty, but rebellions against his rule have not stopped. With news of Henry Darro's rebellion, the king sets off on what may be his final campaign.That's all DragonAtma needs to bring us a short story of warfare, victory, and death. You can read it here.Since DragonAtma is a troper, we should add that Word of God — sorry, Word Of Dragon — is sourced by his edits on this very page. | |

Anyone Can Die: When the story is named Grent's Fall and the main character is King Osbert Grent, that should be expected. | |

Curb-Stomp Battle | |
| Grent's Fall / int_3d699462 | comment |
Curb-Stomp Battle: Some battle sections are rather one-sided — but that's expected when elite troops slice through undertrained soldiers. On a local scale, some duels are just as one-sided, especially Duke Abel Marnhull vs the Bladecleaver and Warren Stanley vs King Osbert Grent. | |

Straight for the Commander | |
| Grent's Fall / int_c02ce551 | comment |
Straight for the Commander: An attempt to ease pressure on General Cromwell. Reginald Halifax is taken out, but by then it was too late. Also attempted by Warren Stanley. King Osbert kills him right away. | |

Large and in Charge: Duke Abel Marnhull was tall, but the Bladecleaver towered over him. Word Of Dragon says they were 6'0" and 6'9", respectively. | |

Chekhov's Gunman: Lionel Ferrers is introduced early on, but is not referenced until late in the story, when he kills King Osbert's heir offscreen. The Bladecleaver is introduced around the same time, but doesn't make an appearance until he kills Duke Abel Marnhull. | |

Rightful King Returns: As the nephew of the last Stanley king, Warren Stanley seeks to return his family to the throne (or at least high nobility) by helping Henry Darro. Unlike most examples, he fails. | |

You Are in Command Now: Because Anyone Can Die, this is in full effect. By the end of the story, not only do Osbert and both of his wing leaders die, but after General Arthur Hicks's wing is virtually wiped out, low-level commander Edwin One-Hand is the wing's highest remaining leader. | |

Dwindling Party: King Osbert Grent's army starts with himself, his third son, two advisors, his best friend, his best friend's son, and multiple high-ranked military leaders. By the end, most of them are dead. Similarly, multiple battles make it clear that both armies are suffering casualties. | |
