The death of the Dirt World Desolate God didn't mean the fighting was completely over, but what remained were merely minor afflictions, nothing to worry about.
The unprotected Gate of Chaos was easily closed, and the Mixed Creatures, having lost their Devourer commander, were now just beasts waiting to be hunted.
As far as Westheid knew, there wasn't a second Dirt World Desolate God in the vicinity of the Qinghui Territory, or even in the farther reaches of the Chaos Domain.
In other words, the final ripple of the Chaos Tide that had surged a century ago had at last been extinguished. Westheid didn't need to concern himself with the remaining cleanup; the well-trained troops under his command were more than capable of handling it slowly but surely.
And Duke Qinghui, finally free of threats to his rear, could now extricate himself from the front lines.
