The last battle /u/ResolutionFamiliar30 DnD: Roll for Initiative!

Hey guys, I’ve currently been running a 5e campaign for 3 years and finally my group reached the long-awaited final boss, the last battle, now it’s all or nothing.

To give some context, the story is that the orcs were united into a horde by a Khan to be able to reconquer territories that were taken from them by other races, a kind of world of warcraft vibe, where humans, elves and dwarves came together in an alliance to stop this advance on the continent.

The characters are in the capital of the kingdom, an immense horde is invading the city, and in the last session they have already helped the civilians, defended the walls and made a counterattack through the main gate, opening a path on the battlefield alongside the soldiers , and now they are face to face with the Khan.

I was inspired by Guldan from WoW, I thought of Khan as a powerful orc warlock who serves as an avatar for the orc entity Gruumsh, in a few sessions ago he killed and brought back to life a dragon that was a guardian of the forests of Ellwood, the land of the elves. Now, in the chaos of the battlefield, face to face with the heroes, is this orc and the dragon.

I would like tips and advice on how to make this fight interesting and challenging. My group is level 9. As it’s my first campaign I’ve mastered and I never expected it to reach the end after 3 years, I’m afraid of ruining everything in the end.
