The lore describes the Reavers singing a death-hymn as they charged into the trencher lines. They were slaughtered by cannon fire, but each fallen Reaver was a stepping stone for Rhyas. By the time she reached the Cygnaran command tent, she had sacrificed over 150 of her own soldiers, each death sharpening her blade through draconic magic. The link between Rhyas and the Reavers is not just tactical—it is blood-bound.
