xStereoScreamx, which version are you playing? In version 1.0, this is a very difficult mission. In the Gilraen patches, he was weakened, but many other missions were made more difficult.
If you captured the nearest Castle first, then you did it in vain. I captured it last. After capturing it, neutral Druids start to multiply rapidly. Some of them may join Gilraen.
I don't remember how much larger Gilraen's army was than mine. But with a two-fold advantage in forces, Agrael should be able to defeat the enemy without any problems. I caught him in an open field. With a hero, the enemies on the battlefield do not run away. Therefore, there were no problems in this mission.
Try to capture the northwestern Castle as quickly as possible. On the hero, it is almost fully built, and it is guarded by a hero with a meager army. I was lucky - I caught him near the Castle, and the Castle itself was without a hero. Therefore, you can break through to it without significant losses. The faster you capture it, the more Elven troops you will be able to recruit before Gilraen arrives. After capturing it, give all the demons to a supporting hero, and let Agrael fight with a purely Elven army. I completed it in version 1.5.
