The Battle of Austerlitz, also known as the Battle of the Three Emperors, was one of Napoleon’s greatest military triumphs. The cold December air bit at the soldiers as they took their positions on the frosty fields of Moravia. Napoleon’s army, outnumbered and seemingly vulnerable, faced the combined forces of Russia and Austria. It was a situation that would have daunted many commanders, but not Napoleon.

Napoleon’s plan was one of cunning deception and calculated sacrifice. He feigned weakness, deliberately positioning his troops to appear thin and stretched. He even allowed part of his line to retreat, drawing the Allies into a trap. As the enemy advanced, believing they had the upper hand, Napoleon waited, biding his time.

On the day of the battle, thick fog enveloped the battlefield, shrouding Napoleon’s true intentions. At the critical moment, he struck. His hidden reserves surged forward, smashing into the flanks of the overextended Allied forces. The fog lifted to reveal the devastating effectiveness of his strategy. The Allies, caught off guard and surrounded, were utterly defeated.

Back on the battlefield of Olympus, Napoleon faced Nox, the embodiment of night. The darkness of Eternal Night pressed in around him, but he remained undaunted. Drawing on the lessons from Austerlitz, he formulated a cunning plan, one that would use Nox’s arrogance against her.

Nox’s voice was a whisper in the void. “You are bold, Napoleon, but this ends now.”

She lunged, her attack swift and deadly. At the last possible moment, Napoleon dodged, his movements precise and calculated. Nox’s blow missed its fatal mark, but her power was immense. As she passed, her claws raked across his body, and with a sickening tear, ripped out his left arm.

Pain exploded through Napoleon, but he did not falter. Instead, he channeled the agony into a final, desperate strike. Gathering all his remaining strength, he focused everything on a single, killing hit. As Nox was overextended and unable to defend, he thrust his sword with all the power of his burning ambition.

But as the humans continued to cheer, a sense of unease lingered in the air. Victory seemed certain, but the match was not yet officially declared over. The darkness still loomed, and the final outcome remained uncertain. Napoleon stood ready, his mind sharp and focused despite his injuries, prepared for whatever might come next.
