Hero story of Axe

The history of Axe Dota 2 - a warrior of the Army of the Red Mist. While still a regular infantryman, Mogul Khan was already aiming to become a General in the Red Mist Army. With each new battle, he proved with a bloody feat that there is no more valuable warrior in the army. The fact that Mogul Khan himself beheaded his commander accelerated his development as a general. Throughout the seven-year military Campaign of the Thousand Tarns, Mogul Khan distinguished himself more than once in glorious bloody massacres. His fame grew more and more, while the number of comrades in arms was noticeably reduced. On the night when the Army of the Red Mist put an end to the war with its victory, Mogul Khan declared himself the new General and assigned himself the highest title - Axe. But in his army, there was no one left but himself. Many fell in endless battles, but also many warriors died from the blade of Mogul Khan's ax. After that, none of the soldiers wanted to fight under his command anymore. But for General Axe himself, this does not matter, since he knows that in battle, you can only rely on yourself, and a one-person army is the best army.
