2021-06-29 20:38:29Four days had already passed since speaking to Aldous on the Proxy Crystal. Everyone had been trying their best to get everything in order before leaving Bael Karrine. Christopher decided it would be best to leave John and Taylor in charge while he was gone, both were good people and more so were better fighters then most.
"Alayna are you sure you're ok with returning to Helenfel with us? I thought you would be going back with your sister and the others?"
"I have to go pick up my assistant/maid I left back in Helenfel."
"Oh ok. Well then everyone welcome to the Hall of Gates." Christopher announced. Everyone had decided to accompany him back to Helenfel. It wasn't just they felt safer with Christopher, but also the undeniable fact they had all become closer, even the ever silent Garrett.
"I mean I knew you said there was multiple gates..." Vanessa said.
"Wow." Sarah added.
Garrett himself was even in awe, the only kind of magic h

....Christopher signaled for Alayna to step closer as he leaned and whispered into her ear."This has to be both the most disturbing, and most amusing thing I've seen.... Well probably ever.""I know right!?" Alayna's eyes were shining with excitement, as if nothing could have been better,. It was like a child going to show off their most prized toy or game at show and tell in school for the first time ever.Christopher began rubbing his eyes like trying to wipe away a bad memory... 'Nope there's no unseeing this.' He sighed accepting the mental torment that would probably stay fresh inside his mind for the next few days. 'By the gods I pray this wont ruin maid outfits for me.'"I'm afraid to ask, but how exactly did this come to be?""It was great, we were on our way home when I found him begging on the streets. Not only had his family heard what happened during the battle but boy did word spread fast. When his father dis

As Knight after knight piled into the bar, there was no sound to be heard. Not even the wild life outside dared to make a noise. All eyes were rested on the group of soldiers whom were equally quiet. As the last man stepped through the doors the knights parted allowing him to take the lead. Without making a sound his sharp gaze scanned over all the bar patrons. After doing so twice his movements were brought to a halt as he scoffed at the crowd."There is a Lord Present! Is this how you people pay your respects!?" Another quick scan of the room was enough for them to see no one was willing to make eye contact with the group. 'Much better. Beaten dogs should never make eye contact with their master.'"Alright put some tables together." Grumbled the lead man. "You woman Bring us some drinks.""I'll get you you're drinks when it's your turn." She said completely unfazed by the group of armored men"Wha- Excuse me!?" A man turned to her rage rapidly spr

Andrea's eyes narrowed on the man who barged into the Knights under her command. 'How does he know my name!' The man rested his elbows on the table with his fingers interlocked, and he just stared. He didn't say anything, just simply looked upon her with a sly smile on his face. Andrea eyed him suspiciously. "I'm sorry I'm afraid I've no idea who you a-" "Hey Chris what are you doing here?" Thomas wasn't sure which to fear more. Christopher angering the knights, or the knights angering him. Either way would have the same outcome. Helenfel damaged, Cassandra angry, and a lot of dead Imperial Knights. Andrea froze mid sentence upon hearing Thomas's words. A single face flashed through her mind. One that would often ware the same silly smile. It had been years. Although most people wouldn't feel it was a long time... It felt like an eternity since she had lost her family. She no longer remembered their faces. When she heard Thomas call his name M

Thump Thump Thump. A figure walked grudgingly through the doorway making it's way towards the bar counter. With each step everyone's eyes followed each movement. Horrified yet unwilling to look away."What exactly are we looking at?" Asked one horrified Knight."By the gods this country is truly cruel.""I officially miss home.""I think I may have had enough to drink." Grumbled one Knight looking back and forth between his drink and the person of question trudging through the bar."No lad., We're all seeing the same thing. If anything I'd say we need more to drink."Both men raised their mugs drinking like it was some sweet nectar they'd discovered after being trapped in the desert for days trying their best to drown out the sight in front of them. 'Maybe if I drink enough I won't remember.'"Mrrrg. Furgdurglers." It was Heinrich muttering incoherently.'I think his final marble must have dropped out of the b

Both the girls had looks of complete bewilderment. They each had dreamed of seeing their best friend again hundreds of times throughout the years. Both had also in then end surrendered both their expectations and hope.Brianna's expression was ugly. There was so many emotions passing through her. Her best friend was alive! The only other person she wished to see besides Christopher for all these years. ' But what the fuck is she wearing!? An Imperial Knight!?'Andrea was once again on her feet and shooting around the table making a mad dash for Brianna who's eyes went wide as Andrea barreled around the corner. Brianna jumped to her feet trying to run away, unfortunately she was not so lucky. Imagine a giant linebacker tackling a tiny 120lb player."The captain just killed the only good looking maid!""Not that one captain! The other! Go kill the other one!""Damn! Why!? It looked like she was checking me out!""Checking you out? The on

The girls didn't wait for an invitation to join this party. Elise took the cup of water she had been drinking from and threw it up into the air with one hand, and waved her free hand. The water quit falling, almost as if it was grabbed by an invisible hand. The water quickly began forming into almost two dozen spikes of ice. With a wicked grin Elise Thrust her hand forward."AAAGH!" One Knight's eye got impaled by a spike of ice, another who had been attempting to rescue his friend from Brianna got his face riddled with the spikes,"AHAHA!" Alesia was Cackling like mad. 'So much hate, so much fear! I love it!' She reached over the bar grabbing multiple bottles of wine and throwing them into the ceiling above the Knights, when the bottles busted their contents poured down on top of a small group. She quickly dropped down placing her hand into the puddle and began pumping out electricity."AAAAAH!" Three men began crying out. Between the armor they were wear

"Surrender immediately! "'What!? What the hell is going on!?' Bishop couldn't begin to fathom what was happening. 'How!? Why!? There's dead bodies on the floor, we're the only visibly wronged party here!' Bishop had come up with this plan on the spot but by Helenfel's laws, by the rumors of it's ruling Lord, 'These bastards should be dead or on their way to the stocks!'Bishop looked past the lines of guards that were now standing between him and Christopher. who was now staring at him with a massive grin. Bishop ground his teeth seething with anger. The smug look on Christopher's face was far more painful then the wound inflicted by the knife that punched a hole through his hand."Have you lost your minds!? What kind of guards are you!? Look around you. Imperial soldiers have been slain in your city. Completely unprovoked!" Roared Bishop looking at the Captain of the guard as if he wearing a card board cut out hat and holding a rubber chicken

"Just how screwed up is this?""Pretty screwed up it would seem."Christopher and Andrea were sitting on the front steps of the bar both with a bottle of liquor in their hands. The girls, Heinrich, and the remaining Knights who stuck by Andrea's side sitting around a table sharing a drinks and stories, despite the very real possibility they could be enemies and forced to fight each other in the days to come. They were all joking, laughing and having a genuine good time despite the chaos that had been caused by Bishop and the deaths of their comrades. Apparently they weren't exactly the best of people even by their Imperial Knight standards. In shorts. 'No loss.'"So you're really a commander in The Black Guard?""Yea you could say that's and understatement. During the war Eventually I was put in charge of a Company, slightly against my will."..."So you even fought during the war? Not just with this new Havoc?""Yup."

"They used siege magic on the rear line?" Alexis asked with a furrowed brow. "Why would they expend so much magic on the rear line?" To Alexis this didn't make any sense. If they were using it as an opener to an attack from the rear, it would definitely be justifiable. Have your men rush in taking advantage of the destroyed lines and chaos. But using siege magic alone and backing off, would be like someone taking a shotgun to kill a spider inside their own house. Beyond overkill. If they had struck the center of their lines, their commanders, or even their supply train, Alexis could understand the expenditure. Most magic users could fling spells they specialized in for a majority of the day. But siege magic? The average mage could use it four times in one day, but be severely weakened for the next couple of days. Sure they could use siege magic again the next day, but each day without a proper recovery time the power of the attack would be cut in half. "Well sir it seems the rear l

Inside Helenfel. "Right here." Cassandra pointed at a section of her map sprawled out on the table. "This will be the perfect place." Andrea walked around the table to stand next to Cassandra looking down on the map. "Hmmm good call. When they emerge here they'll be in a bottleneck." "That's not all. They'll be coming around a corner too. They wont be able to see our army waiting for them until it's too late. We'll also have archers along the cliff tops. that can shoot down on them." "Why not have our archers continue firing down on them the entire stretch? That's miles of cliff ledge we could use to thin them out." Garrett asked retracing the path on the Albrael army was taking. "Because we don't want to give away our archers. The reason we've barely had our men harass them the past day was leading up to this moment. Most of all we don't want them to double back, leaving the kill zone we've set up." "Isn't there a chance they sent men to the top of the cliffs too though?" "We

Multiple days had passed in the City Of Darkness following the surrender/purge of any still resisting dissidents. And life had begun returning to normal little by little after the bodies were removed from the streets. Havoc's army had upheld their orders. Those who surrendered were allowed to return home without any recourse for fighting against their new host. Neither the members of The Black Guard, nor their militia counter parts caused any unnecessary damage, nor did they loot and pillage the city. Frankly apart from the angered nobles who's homes had been bombarded during the siege, the city was peaceful and upbeat. The stalls were open, any artisans were back to their crafts. The children ran and played in the now cleaned streets that had been soaked in blood not long ago. Guards were posted on every wall and street corner. Christopher and the other leaders involved weren't fools. Though they had been merciful, eventually there would be some who would try fighting back. They e

Just a little earlier"This is big! This is really big!" Brisia grinned ear to ear as she paced back and forth hardly able to contain her excitement. Her little walk even leading her up the walls and onto the ceiling dancing, and skipping, somehow defying gravity."Shit! Shit Shit!" Alesia growled through grit teeth. "I knew something was coming, but even I never imagined this!" Alesia's current mood was about as close to polar opposite of Brisia's as it could get. 'This is the last thing we need currently! If they find out, especially in the middle of this war, we're seriously fucked! Like fucked on the level I was when all the other gods betrayed me and had me cast from the heavens! Perhaps even more fucked!'"I still can't believe it! I mean I suppose when you look at his track record it would make sense, but holy shit!" Brisia exclaimed. "Not just immortal but he's turning into a god.""I know... More so a god of death." Alesia groaned. The completed 'tattoo' pretty much confirme

Thunk.... Thunk..."Riggy... Any day now..""Y-You d-don't rush perfection!" Mortis groaned as his nerves were being grated against by a rather pushy spirit. "E-Elise if you think you can do better, by all means t-take over!" He snapped back.Thunk! Thunk!"Well look Riggy.. I don't mean to be pushy... BUT PEOPLE ARE TRYING TO FUCKING KILL US!" Elise roared flapping her arms up and down like they were wings.Fwee!As though on cue an arrow zipped between their faces, mere millimeters from giving Mortis a nose piercing he didn't wish for....."S-See not that bad.." He stood his ground glaring back at Elise who could only return his gaze with wild eyed disbelief.Thunk! Thunk! Thunk! Thunk!"That's because there's a wall of shields protecting you and your wrinkled ass!"Thunk! Thunk! Thunk! Thunk! Thunk! Thunk! Thunk! Thunk! Sure enough the members of The Black Guard had formed a wall of shields covering the pair as Mortis went to work claiming he had the means to bring down their gat

Christopher walked to the giant hole in the wall he had created when trying to incinerate Markous looking out over the city breathing a heavy sigh, hanging his head low and shaking it. "What's wrong? At this rate the city is as good as yours? Shouldn't you be happy?" Brisia asked walking up the wall before hanging upside down looking out of the hole too. "See your people are already working on the third gate. Isn't this what you wished for?" "I'll admit.. I wasn't expecting to get that old bastard's approval, but this didn't pan out as I had hoped." He shrugged watching balls of fire rain down upon the noble district from the trebuchets outside the city. "Sooo you didn't want the city?" "Pftt I could give two shits less about the city. I wanted the power that dwelled down here. On that note I suppose you could say this was a success. But by the gods the more I was stuck in the presence of that asshole, the more I want to feed his head to a thousand small animals. Just gotta hope th

"HAHAHA JUSTICE SHALL BE DELIVERED!" Vale cried out as though she were a poor soul who had been denied justice by the courts for far too long.BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM!The ground erupted all around both the twins and the behemoth of a Vampire. The girls quickly turned their backs to one another taken by surprise, readying themselves as best they could considering their injuries. Their eyes caught a glimpse of a creature emerging from the earth, and it was almost instant. The pair blinked and by the time their eyes opened the massive beings were already hovering well above their heads."You've got to be shitting me." Lala mumbled."If she could do this, It would've been nice of her to have done something sooner." Laura huffed her arm dangling limp by her side.Though still on edge the twins felt they could finally breathe a sigh of relief. The pair took several steps back returning behind their friendly lines.

RAAAWR! A roar ripped through the caverns as the ground beneath their feet began to shake violently. Many people from both sides of the battle looked around trying to find what kind of ferocious beast could emit such a blood curdling sound. "I haven't heard a roar like that in thousands of years." "I've never heard that kind ever!" Their eyes scanned the surroundings. Looking side to side, up around the cavern ceiling, only to find nothing. The monstrous sound was far to loud for anyone to mistakenly assume they had just imagined it. The rumbling earth began shaking harder and harder although you couldn't physically see any movement, the people could feel the movements underneath their feet from whatever was coming, like a slithering serpent snaking it's way through the grass. It felt as though the very earth beneath their feet may collapse at any moment. If anyone in the vicinity were to claim the gods were angered and unleashing their fury on the city, many wouldn't doubt the w

This day and age when someone says an army they think professional soldiers, fighting and killing is their bread and butter, it's what they train for, it's what they're paid for. Their job consists of nothing besides honing those skills. Training and searching for a way to improve upon the ability to kill, to take the life of another human being. But there's times where an army consists of ordinary people, every day people. Bakers, smiths, teachers, sometimes even the students, people you who have never seen combat, mix these people in with some trained soldiers who're willing to advise and educate these people, and at times these armies can be just as dangerous as the professional ones. When you have a reason to fight, whether it's for a better life, to protect someone, to make a name, for your country, even if for a moment it places you at odds with it, you can become a force that's mighty. With no identifying uniform, the enemy will never know when they're about to strike. A man,
