The path to the capital Pith was as always a beautiful one. The lush flora of Bosque was never a sight for sore eyes. But Samuel could not appreciate the blooming flowers or the soaring trees.
He had received the reply to his requests and though the response was positive, it was hard to feel happy knowing you would be sent into a battle.
Samuel Oakley was an adventurer, he had taken human lives before. He however had not participated in a war. The Bosque Kingdom, Galeburst Dynasty, and even the Volcan Empire had not seen a large-scale war for decades.
Still, Samuel was the one that suggested he participate in a war despite his inexperience, and now he could only blame himself.
At the same time, he had suggested it because he was confident in his own abilities. He did not even think of the possibility of dying in battle. What had him in this gloom was the certainty that he would be killing many innocent people.
