==Reinforcements==
Unnamed Exalted Bloodthirster
An unnamed Exalted Bloodthirster (rank 20) is an unexpected reinforcement for the player/Yuri during this battle. It will arrive after 0:04, from behind the player's army. You can then control it.
It has Bloodthirst, Burning Rage, Deathbringer, 90 armour, 105 speed, 86 melee attack (fire + magical), 54 melee def, 852 weapon strength (257 base + 595 armour piercing), 80 charge bonus, terror, flaming attackes, armoured, armour piercing, siege attacker.
If you move into the quest battle area then decline the attack, you will get a notification that the Exalted Bloodthirster has been wounded, and will take time to recover. However if you attack again, even on the same turn, then the Exalted Bloodthirster will be back, reinforcing your army.
The Exalted Bloodthirster appears to be the same one which guards the Screaming Chasm, who is referred to as the Bridge-Maker earlier in the campaign, but has a true name which Yuri discovers in the Brazen Altar.
