Ghosts of Níza

Part of Folklore of Juhnvechteya
Following the Battle of the Egatl Tun, there surfaced many accounts of supernatural phenomena from among the survivors. The most common theme among them was a group of ghostly warriors appeared as the Toradzmen were retreating, who held off the Joran army long enough for the Toradisch men to escape. 
=== The Incident ===
As the Toradzmen routed, many began to pray. Most to Werry above, some to the old pagan deities worshipped by their ancestors, in a desperate attempt to save their lives. Evidentially, their efforts succeeded.
As the Jorans were pursuing their fleeing foes, they were halted by a large company of men which had appeared before them in a clap of lightning. Dressed in the attire of the ancient Toradzmen, and brandishing spears, saxes, and rounded shields, this ghostly company halted the Jorans. Chanting ominously and beating heavy drums, the apparitions levied their weapons at them. Superstitious as they were, the Jorans slowed and stopped, until the shimmering host hurled a volley of darts into the first rank of the Jorans. Every man struck, fell as though his armor were null, and they fell back beyond throwing range. 
This stand-off lasted for nearly an hour, the ghostly men staring into the Jorans’ superstitious eyes, until the final Toradzman had escaped the field. With that, in a flash of lightning on the clear day, the spectral company vanished into thin air. The Jorans did not move for several more minutes, until they were egged on by the jeering shouts of the Ritter among the cavalry to advance
