They shot at Matthias&#039; force with arrows, who were on a raft in the middle of a river, and managed to pick off a large number of shrews. Then, the Longtails tried to follow Matthias&#039; force in a raft of their own, but it was still tied to the bank.<br /> <br /> The Longtail Horde caught up on land, though, and a heated battle ensued. Matthias&#039; army fought valiantly, but they were badly outnumbered and began to flag. The day was saved by [[Sparra]] Queen Warbeak and her sparrow army, who arrived just in the nick of time. Seeing themselves outnumbered, the rats began to retreat. When Log-a-Log spotted Stonefleck trying to escape in the confusion, he flung his [[sword]] like a [[spear]] and killed the rat. The remaining Longtails, seeing their leader dead, fled. Warbeak was among those who were killed in the battle.<br /> [[Category: Events]]</div>
