Line 50:
** Brutha in ''[[Discworld/Small Gods|Small Gods]]'' arrives alone on the beach where the armies of half a continent are expecting to fight the Omnian Divine Legion, and explains that the reasons for the war have gone. Almost subverted when one of the enemy generals explains, not unkindly, that sometimes there's just going to be a war and there's nothing anyone can do about it, certainly not by invoking "reasons" or lack thereof. Luckily Brutha has [[Physical God|more persuasive allies]].
* Ronnie from ''[[The Last Song]]'' stood between Marcus and Scott to stop them from fighting.
* A ''[[1632]]'' story focusing on [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cardinal_Mazarin Giulio Mazzarini] is titled "Between the Armies." It states that he once prevented a battle by riding [[Title Drop|between the armies]] waving what he said was a peace treaty. He was lying; the negotiations hadn't got as far as signing a treaty yet, but the time without fighting his lie bought turned out to be enough to get an actual peace worked out. This incident '''may''' have actually happened, though [[The Other Wiki]] doesn't mention it.
