After taking shower Avon And arcadius told the girls that they had finished from the river
The girls start working on set the camp ready Avon took his sword And went for a stroll around the forest
Arcadius set beside the fire warming his hand and reading books about "political diplomacy"
Sara , Minerva And vernara went to the river they start taking their clothes off
As Minerva went full naked vernara and Sara looked at her body in shock they felt sad for her
Her body was full of cuts and wounds they decided its better not to talk about this subject anytime soon
They went to the river and start chatting
Sara : [ todays weather is amazing never felt this much freedom for a long time ]
Vernara : [ right ?? It feels like ages ago since we took a real shower ]
Sara : [ how about you Minerva ?? do you feel this weather ?? ]
Minerva : [ n-not really ... ]
Sara : [ how so ?? ]
Minerva : [ I don't have this feeling like you do ... The feeling of freedom I mean , even tho I have wings in my back calling them anytime going off on the sky between the clouds ... I don't feel like I am free .. At all , I believe this feeling got robbed from me long time ago ...]
A beautiful flowers was falling off carried by the wings from afar
Minerva held one if them in her hands
Minerva said smoothly : [ i want you to promise me something if i may ask ... ]
Sara : [ sure ]
Minerva : [ when the day comes and you see me lose control over myself please ... End my life ...]
Sara : [ what ? ]
Vernara : [ wait what do you mean losing control ? , are you ..... ]
Minerva puts the flower gently on the water surface
Minerva : [ right now at this moment I am talking to you as the real Minerva the human Minerva , but I can restore my old self for some period of time .. ]
Sara : [ how many exactly ? ]
Minerva : [ 2 month .... While in this state I will slowly return to my other self ... ]
Sara : [ the mindless one ]
Minerva looked at Sara smiling awhile tearing up ahse asked her ...
Minerva : [ would you mind if asked you for another favor... ]
Sara : [ sure ]
Minerva took out her necklace , she held Sara hand and put it in and closed her hand ...
She held her her face and put her head on hers ...
Sara remembered her older sister when she did that with her
Sara : [ h-how did you .... Know !!! ]
Minerva : [ take care of Avon ... He needs you right now more then ever , I felt him ... His rage , anger , suffering , agony its eating him slowly but the one who takes the majority of him is ... Revenge , some day he will save humanity I know ]
Sara : [ h-how do you know that ?? ]
Minerva kissed her head and slowly backed off
Minerva : [ because you dear ... you will be with him , with you there beside him he will always remember who he is , what he is ]
Vernara : [ how Can you tell ?? Even I find that hard ]
Minerva : [ it doesn't take geniuse to figure that out , seeing how Avon is right now I believe if you asked him to conquer a city instead he will take the world and serve it to you in a sliver plate ]
Vernara in her thoughts { she seem different ... She seems mature and confident .... }
Minerva looked at her from her side eye
And winked at her with a smile
Vernara { the hell ??? Did she .... Is she .... Why I feel she can hear me ... God damn it off course she can is she ?? }
Vernara : [ what exactly ... No who exactly are you .. You are not the Minerva we knew ]
Sara : [ I noticed as well ]
Minerva : [ I am the real Minerva ... The human one , it seems funny tho you only know me as un confidant and shy hahaha but no I am the real one its nice to meet ya , however the other one you met is the mindless one , I don't have much time to talk about it we will continue this subject later ]
Minerva spreads her wings ..
Minerva : [ one last thing dear ... Remember that we succubus can reads our prey minds and thoughts , we do that so we either using it against our enemy or as Intel , in the future you will see many of our race you see any of them .. Don't hesitate kill them all ... ]
Sara : [ what if we find someone like you and Helen ?? ]
Minerva : [ Mother is an exceptional , she is strong her well is harder then admantium steel , meanwhile me ... I am just a temporary one , soon you will have to kill me too ... ]
Vernara : [ I had this thought in my mind but seeing how kind you are is kinda hard to do it ]
Minerva : [ trust me you don't want to see me in my real form as I as strong as mother .. , like I said we are exceptional , killing me will grant you special place among our race reputation .. ]
Vernara : [ what ??!!! ]
Sara : [ reputation ?? ]
Minerva : [kill me now and the entire succubus and incubus race will go after you ... Not entirely on you more like the race that killed someone special like me , we are attracted and attractive to you race the other race doesn't see us the same tho it doesn't matter to us to who we get our life source from its all the same ... ] ( she noticed something )
She continue : [ I got to go back now it was nice talking to both of you however don't mention any of this to my other self remember dear this form is only temporary the other me is the mindless one but slowly she will retrieve her memory in no time , this won't be the last time we meet don't worry we talk later dear take care of Avon and arcaidius for me , goodbye ...]
She noticed something and went back to her other self
Minerva : [ h-hi ... I-is there something.... Wrong ?? ]
Sara : [ not at all sweetie ... ]
Vernara : [ is It OK to ask you some personal question ?? ]
Sara : [ ver I dont think its best to talk about This ...]
Vernara : [ why not I want to know more about her I believe you do too right ... ]
Minerva : [ I-its OK I don't have problem talking about myself ... I mean .... Its been a while when moments like these have come across .... ]
Sara : [ how long its been since you felt like this ?? I mean talking to other people ?? ]
Minerva : [ I actually lost count after 2530 year ago ]
Vernara thought { god damn thats old }
Vernara : [ how was the life ?? ... Back then before all this ?? ]
Minerva : [ it was peaceful back then so peaceful I will never forget these beautiful days ... Waking up early ... Feeding the horses , going on a stroll around the village , working on the flower shop , I even remember the final moments of that day the Final laugh ... The Final delicious food we ate at my aunt house it used to be in the corner of the village beside the green forest , these were a beautiful memories I even remember my mother face evertime I used to Come back from work .. ]
Sara : [ your mother .... Her name .. Was Helen right ? ]
Minerva : [ that is correct , and she was beautiful , always beautiful her light smooth skin her beautiful red eyes ... ]
Sara in her thought { at least she remember her mother ... Wait did she say red eye ?? }
Vernara in her thought { wait what ?? }
Sara and vernara were shocked when they heard red eyes they start looking at each other with confusing but they didn't interfere ...
Minerva : [ ... she used to tell me all kind of stories before going to bed ... But I had My suspicious about her in the final days ... ]
Sara : [ what do you mean ?? ]
Minerva : [ she never sleeps .... She hardly slept 5 minute before waking upwithbher full energy .... And she always used to look at the sky as if she was waiting for something ... But the final days she start going out at night often and staying out the entire night ... I winder what's got it her ]
Vernara saw her trying to wash her back ...
Vernara : [ I will wash your back for you ]
Minerva : [ thank you ... ]
Sara : [ how long since that happen ??? I mean the very final day when you used to be human ?? ]
Minerva : [ 6300 years ago ... I still remember it like it was tomorrow ... ]
Vernara : [ I bet its a beautiful place to live ... ]
Minerva : [ it used to be ... You all would've loved it there ... Not sure if that place is exist anymore ... ]
Sara : [ where was that place ? ]
Minerva : [ not far from the avalon kingdom it was a place with weird mountains all monsters and nonhuman fear to go there especially between the mountains not sure why as if there is something there goes against them more like hunting them but not humans they never attacked human .... the place was massive a huge landscape 2 mountain and a path in middle you go through that oath another massive landscape in the end of it 3 mountains and 2 only path you go through it there is small landscape and in the end of it there is 4 mountain and 3 paths there used to be our old village protected and peaceful that place has everything to survive water , food , trees , herbs everything ... ]
Vernara : [ that seems ... Beautiful ... ]
Vernara in her thought { and weird too }
Sara in her thought { a creature who only attack non human creatures avon would love to hear this }
Minerva : [ thank you .... Your hands is soft ... ]
Vernara : [ just like your hair beautiful ... ]
Sara : [ yes sure you both are beautiful let's hurry up and finish the weather is getting cold you know ... ]

They laughed
As the clouds start immerge and heavy winds blows the leaves from the tree
Vernara : [ alright then the weather is getting cold let's head back to the camp shall we ]
They all agreed And they left the river to the camp as soon as possible before they catch a cold
When they reached there Avon was sitting on log while he was putting fishes on stick and putting them beside the fire
He saw them and wave at them
The food smells delicious ...
Sara smelled it And without thinking she ran to Avon to see what he is cooking
Avon : [ I see your quite energetic this evening I believe the shower is taking its effect faster then i thought ]
Sara : [ yeah the water was warm for sometime but it was getting cold so we got to hurry and get out as soon as possible before we take cold , anyway what's your cooking ? ]
Avon : [ ah I see your hungry as well Do not worry the fish will be ready soon if I may ask you can you prepare the tea for us ... ]
Sara : [ yeah gladly .. , hey girls come over here and help me making the tea ]
Vernara whispering : [ it doesn't take 3 to make tea you know ... ]
Sara shouting from afar : [ ... are you coming ?? ]
Vernara : [ Yes ... Yes we're coming .... My god come Minerva let's go ]
Minerva : [ y-yeah sure .. ]
They go to prepare some tea
.
.
Meanwhile Arcadius scouting the further road as he can see what is resemblance as village ..
And some camps near by it was dark but he can see clear as the day
And he decided to go further to the camps in his way he noticed a road sign
The way he is going is called the Royal village
On the right path its called kingdom of Avalon
On the left it says kingdom of cardareia
And matters was written in red it says ... { all hopes were lost ... } the rest can't be read
He went further to the royal village to the camps nearby
He got close and close .... He can't see anybody there ...
But when he got close enough to view the camp ... The camp was filled with blood and body's .... All the body's were skeletons so what happened here happened long time ago
He knew these were the knights who used to protect the village
There was multiple camps all around the village belong to all kingdoms and empire who have attendance or relatives inside the village to protect them all
And this one used to belong to the sundevia empire
He counted 30 dead human body
They still wear their armor and still wielding their sword
He counted 40 to 60 unknown creature and its certain they are not humans ...
Most of them had wings and different shape too
Arcadius : [ they stood their line and never retreated ... Fought till the very end knowing they will die ... Thanks to you we are alive ... Rest well *he held one of the helmet * ]
He held the helmet and put him on his chest as a sign of respect
He looked around and only death he saw
He stood up and walked to the destroyed gate and looked through it ...
Without knowing it he start tearing up he wanted to go ... He wanted to see something precious to him .. He tried to go ...
But didnt ... He stopped himself and turned back and walked to the camp ..
Arcadius : [ everything has its moments tomorrow .... ]
In the camp ...
The fish was almost ready , the tea as well
Avon : [ OK ... Dinners ready ]
Sara came to pick up the fish and put it on silver plate they took from the Convoy
Vernara kept bragging about her tea being the best and Minerva was totally buying it ...
Vernara : [ alright then dear .... Behold the royal maiden tea ... ]
Minerva in confusion : [ the royal ....m-maiden ... Tea ??? ]
Vernara : [ yes ... The royal maiden tea ... I just came up with the name .. ]
Minerva : [ oh ... Is that .. So ... ]
Vernara : [ yes , and it tasty ... My mother teached me this recipe when I was younger ]
Minerva : [ ohhh really now I am more interested in this ]
The tea is ready
Vernara : [ alright its ready ... Let's go and eat ... Wait you do .. Eat ... Right ?? ]
Minerva : [ yes ... Its been too long since I ate fish , I am so excited !!!]
Vernara : [ oh I am happy to hear that ... Let's go ]
Sara was putting the fish on the plates and Avon was helping her while vernara and Minerva brought the tea ...
They set around the camp and started to eat
Avon : [ we should wait arcadius its rude to eat without him you know ... ]
Sara : [ yeah but .... *chup* we ... We kinda very hungry here ... ]
Vernara : [ agreed ... *chup* man this fish is awesome where did you get it ??!! ]
Avon : [ from the river while taking shower , whatever did you forget your manner?? ]
Sara : [ n-no but *chup* we do have ..... 'whisper' Mmmm this fish pretty good .... We do have plenty of them he can eat anytime ... ]
Vernara : [ and we are soo darn hungry .... *chup* mmmmmm]
Minerva : [ I-I agree with them .... This fish is good ]
Avon : [ you too Minerva ..... Alright fine whatever you say ladies ]
And after a while arcadius returned with bag in his back
Avon saw him first and noticed he is holding something
Sara and the other girls were chatting on the campfire
Avon looked at them and didnt want to disturb them so he rush to arcadius and noticed his mood was down as he was upset or something ..
Avon : [ what happened you seem upset ?? And why did it take long to explore ?? ]
Arcadius : [ I went to further on road and all I saw is death ... ]
Avon : [ did you find anything ?? ]
Arcadius : [ yes ..... I did ]
He gave him the bag
Avon took the bag while looking at him
He opened the bag and saw helmet that used to belong to the solders of Sundevia empire ...
He held the helmet to his chest and said : [ Rest well ... You have done your duty rest in the eternal champer ... of champions ]
Avon :[ is it far ?? ]
Arcadius : [ no , its close .... Too close ]
Avon : [ good ... Good ]
He turned around into the river And walked there
When he reached to the shore he listened to the water as it is calm and beautiful And peaceful ....
He put the helmet gently in the river and moved it , the helmet was moving into the river
Avon kept looking at it as it was moving away and then he draw his sword and put it in his chest while the blade pointing up
Arcadius in the back did the same
Avon in his mind { one day humanity will be able to stand their ground without needing to beg for food or shelter ... One day humans will reclaim their rightful place in this world and shall make them all nonhumans pay for what they have done to us in the past centuries of blood path .. One day humans will live free and peace .. That is my promise to you all }
Arcadius stood behind and did what Avon did without interrupting
Arcadius : [ I am going to the camp I shall tell them to prepare for tomorrow ]
Avon : [ yes ... Tomorrow will be a painful day for sure , a long day too ]
Arcadius left to the camp and told the girls to prepare their stuff
Avon to himself :{ my dear sister .... My dear mother ... I never and shall be ever forget you ... I will avenge you I will avenge all of them even if the world and the heavens turned against me ... }
It was late and the group covered most of the camp so they went to sleep
In the next morning sara woke up and looked around ...
She saw Avon standing ready ... Prepared
Sara : [ I see you packed the rest of the camp .... Are you ... Nervous ?? ]
Avon : [ about what ?? ]
Sara : [ don't act like you don't even know ... You are nervous are you ]
Avon : [ not even the slightest .... After all this is our home ... The air , the smell , the view ... Its been too long since I felt something like this ... ]
Sara And Avon : [ Freedom ... ]
The looked at each other and Avon smiled to her and pat her head
Avon : [ get ready its gonna be long day ... ]
Sara : [ I'm sure it will .... , and I'm sure everything is gonna be fine ... ]
Avon : [ what's make you so sure about that ?? ]
Sara : [ just a hunch ... ]
She goes to pick her stuff and clean her face in the river
Arcadius And vernara woke up
Arcadius : [ "yawns" .... Hey good morning ... What's good sister ]
Vernara : [ morning ... Now Get your ass up and get ready we need to go ]
Arcadius : [ alright fine .... Man why she's so mean to Me this morning ]
Minerva was in the tree , sleeping like a bat
Avon was watching as he was also amazed
Arvadius came with 2 cup of tea
Arcadius : [ gooooood morning to my big bro from another mother, so what's goOOOOOOD omg .... THATS A HUGE BAT ]
Avon : [ that's Minerva and "took the cup" good morning to you too ]
Arcadius : [ Mineee..rva what now ??? ]
Minerva : [ how rude of you anyway morning to you too arcadius ]
She stretched her wings and then she flipped down from the tree
She touched the top of the ground on top of her toes as gentle as she is
Avon and arcadius were impressed
While Avon and arcadius talking she continue to stretch up her wings
Avon : [ impressive ... ]
Arcadius : [ very impressive indeed .. Hey Avon a word dear say ... should we really eliminate all them they seem cute I mean look at her ]
Avon : [ she is an exception , a human stuck inside a monster ... We might find others like her so keep your eyes up ]
Arcadius : [ got ya ]
They turned around and she was eating an apple
Arcadius : [ yes .. Anyway I am going to get ready catch up with you later birdey ]
Minerva : [ hey .... "throws apple to him" you seem hungry take this ]
Arcadius : [ an apple from the goddess herself I will treasure it with all my heart , THANK YOU ... ]
Avon : [ you seem .... Different , did something happened ?? ]
Minerva : [ not at all , but I do feel something strange ... I believe this is the feeling of freedom ]
Avon : [ I'm happy to hear that ]
Minerva leaves and go to the river
Avon in his mind { she seems mature all of sudden .. Impressive }
When Avon got back to the camp everyone was ready to move up only Minerva was still in the river
Avon goes to check on her and be saw that she was catching the fish on impressive way
She flies up like bird and goes Down hard into the river like eagle splashing all the water around
after moments she walked up to the shore holding fishnet full of fishes
Minerva : [ its for later journey ]
Avon felt off about her but didnt assume anything so he smiled and walked back with Minerva and the fishes
They go down to the road and when they reached it they smelled something bad in another word disgusting
The smell was like something is dead
As the road was full of ruins and destroyed carts alongside body's of different size and type
They followed the path and every step they walk the more they see of the destruction that was left behind
Destroyed building , dry blood lots of blood , body's left And right all types animals , humans , other unidentified creatures
Avon : [ are you sure this is the path ?? ]
Arcadius : [ pretty sure a little up head and we will reach the gates ]
They kept walking the note they walk the more they see
After while of walking they finally were able to see the walls from a far
The surrounding area looked terrifying even after so many years the destruction is still remaining
A huge field filled with body's wearing armor , giant creatures , other massive war machines
In the stone wall there was a huge path through the walls
They could see the camps of the kingdoms and empire who put them there to protect the village
Yet there were no gate to be seen
Vernara : [ so ... Where is the gate ?? ]
Arcadius : [ you are looking at it ... ]
Sara : [ thats impossible .... ]
Arcadius : [ it seems impossible but thats the truth these are the western gate of vermile royal village ... Or what left of it anyway ]
Avon looked at Minerva as he noticed she has no expression she was Normal seeing all this
he can see her eyes glowing a little bit as if she excited or happy
He didn't quietened or assumed but he kept his guard up all the time
The continue to walk through the battlefield
As they were walking Avon stood side and watched a dead man in full plate armor from head to toe on his knee holding the spear up
A spear penetrate through the knight body as the other spear he was holding penetrate through a huge armor
The skeleton leftover was on the ground but the knight spear kept the armor of the creature who used to wear it
Avon : [ brave men ..stood their ground and fought like there is no tomorrow , they fought in the middle of the end knowing there is no victory , this sacrifice must never been forgotten ]
Sara looked at the sky above the village as she was amazed and terrified
As there was a huge hole like shattered glass In the sky above the village while the real sky can be seen behind it
Sara : [ w-what is that ??? ]
Vernara : [ its the same as I once saw it that day ]
Arcadius : [ how can I ever forget about this ]
Avon : [ this ladies and gentlemen is the gate of saccuba leading directly at the nations of the succubus and the Incubus ]
Sara : [ its not red anymore and I can almost see the real sky behind it ]
Arcadius : [ the gate were closed not too long ago imagine how many of them got through the lat gate before it was closed ]
Vernara : [ how do they open it up ?? Don't tell Me some kind if cursed magic ?? ]
Avon : [ I'm not sure .... There's still a lot for us to learn. ]
Arcadius : [ alright people let's keep going its already noon so we got proximity 6 hours to explore ]
Vernara : [ let's make this worth the trouble we go through ]
They walked towards the village before they reached the gate Avon dropped his bag
Sara : [ why did you drop That ?? ]
Avon : [ it is no use to me anymore ]
Minerva : [ There's plenty of valuable stuff you can pick are you sure you won't grab something for your journey? ]
Avon looked at her
Avon : [ we are no scavenger ... We are nobles and we will remain one till the very end ]
Minerva seems not impressed nor interested
Avon start to have his own doubts on her
The other heard her and they were quite surprised from the way she speaking
Arcadius : [ we better get moving ]
Arcadius drops his bag ...
Sara and vernara follow
They entered the village through the massive path in the wall ...
The first thing they saw was skeleton heads on spikes hundreds of them ,
Heads of the innocent those who never held a weapon
While they were walking they noticed on the roof body's on dress hanged up
The more they walk the more they witnessed ....
A building collapse in distance can be heard
They reached to the village center ... It was the bloodiest of all places ...
The blood remains still on the wall as mountains of corpses were there
They stood there looking ...
Vernara voice cracking : [ h-home ..... Our sweet .... home "sob" ]
Arcadius : [ used to be ...., It used to be our home , now its a graveyard ]
Avon : [ our dear leaders wanted to make peace with the non humans , for generation they were slaughtering us and they thought peace is the only option to end this blood path , well i belive they were wrong ]
Arcadius : [ too wrong in fact ]
Vernara : [ they attacked this village because it has the key ... ]
Looked at him
Minerva : [ what key ?? ]
Sara : [ a key to defeat the nonhumans the Demons , avenging all the generation of the blood path they created And reclaim this world , as it should be ... ]
Avon : [ how do you know that ? ]
Sara : [ Helen teached us .. "Smirks" ]
Avon : [ h-how dare you ..... BTW where were we when Helen teached you that .. ]
Vernara : [ you and arcadius were sleeping like children you are ]
Arcadius : [ hey now thats not fair I was hungry..... I-I mean sleepy that's all ... "Whispers to Avon " hey say something ]
Avon whispers : [ what do you want me to say they are saying the truth , I don't know what were you doing but I was sleeping ]
Arcadius : [ God damn it ... I hate this ]
Vernara and Sara were laughing
Minerva : [ this doesn't make sense ... ]
Sara : [ human kind is feared by all the non humans, either they were magic users or non , humans will always find a way to eliminate them ... did it once we damn sure will do it again it was a mistake from our grandfathers that we will not repeat ]
Vernara : [ those who never learned from their past is doomed to repeat them ]
Vernara continue : [ showing mercy is what led us to this state , this time there will be none ]
Avon to Sara : [ since when my little sister got all political ... ]
Sara : [ since today I guess ]
Avon : [ what ?? ]
Sara : [ brother shut it now we talk later about this ]
Avon : [ sure sister ]
Arcadius in his mind : { man I gazed away for a moment now I don't understand a thing they say .. But MAN I'm hungry }
Minerva seemed unpleasant from what she heard
Avon noticed her as he also start to having doubt's
Avon : [ is something wrong Minerva ?? ]
Minerva : [ n-no I just lost in thoughts that all ]
After a while
Sara : [ our home is on that hill where's yours ? ]
Arcadius : [ north side of the village near the royal bakery ]
Vernara : [ near the old temple north east ]
Avon : [ then let's split up do your things and regroup here in the center ... ]
Vernara : [ then ?? ]
Avon : [ till then we will see ... ]
They split up to each way vernara and arcadius together
Avon and Sara together
Meanwhile Minerva was looking around as she also start exploring the village on her own
Arcadius : [ so ]
Vernara : [ so ? ]
Arcadius : [ if I ask something personal will you answer it .... Be honest with me ?? ]
Vernara : [ sure its not like I'm gonna tell the guards or anything so go ahead ]
Arcadius : [ that day .... How many close one did you lose ? ]
Vernara looked at ground and start looking at the dead body's
Arcadius : [ too personal I assume .. Sorry to ask ... ]
Vernara : [ its OK ... Nothing personal between us remember ... Your my brother no secrets ]
Arcadias: [ good to hear ]
Vernara : [ as for that day ... I was at home playing with my big brothers ... They were twin , mother was at town picking something for dinner and father was in his palace in verdunsva ]
Arcadius : [ king ... Velkavura ?? ]
Vernara : [ yes thats my father ... Funny how all my family names start with "VE" like whats so special with it ]
Arcadius : [ i belive it is as reminder that you once belonged to a great kingdom .. To a great king ... I heard he was the kindest ]
Vernara : [ kindest of all people I met we were supposed to leave to the palace in near future because he felt something wrong going to happen and it seems he was right but little too late ... Only god knows what truly happened with him ]
She stopped at one of the stores who still has toys inside as if nothing really changed
She opened the door and got inside looking around arcadius followed her
Vernara : [ I don't know what happened to mother I will find her even if she is now a skeleton I will know how she looks like as go my brothers ... They ... They .. ]
Arcadius : [ still inside your home ... I know .. What's special with this store ?? You used to come here ?? ]
Vernara: [ yes ... Used to ... Now all this has no meaning to me I lost everything "sob" ]
She start crying and arcadius came and hugged her , put her head into his shoulder leaning to him while he was comforting her
Arcadius : [ how can you say that ?? When you still had us beside you ]
Vernara : [ I could've done more "sob" I cou.... Could've ... ]
Arcadius : [ you couldn't do anything beside diying with them , you said they were strong yet both of them couldn't hold them ... Imagine what would be their reaction if they saw you like this ]
Vernara : [ I know what you gonna say ... J-just don't ... ]
Arcadius : [ then get up .... get up And face it , better now then never ]
Vernara : [ what about you ?? Did you lose someone that day ?? ]
Arcadius : [ yes .... I did ]
Vernara held his hands as arcadius helped her to get up and pulled a towel and cleaned her tears
Vernara hugged him after
Arcadius : [ let's get going ... My home ain't far ]
Vernara : [ yeah mine isn't far too ]
Arcadius : [ good then let's going ]
In his thought { I hope tho day ends quickly ... Its .... Painful .. !! }
Meanwhile In Avon and Sara side
Sara : [ are-are you okey brother ? ]
Avon : [ not sure ... ]
Avon was looking at the body's hanged in the road
Avon : [ look at them ... Small , short , those are kids .... Damn kids , THEY ... THEY WILL PAY !!! FOR EVERYTHING ]
Sara : [ I'm not sure what to say anymore but we will avenge them I promise you ]
Avon : [ not we .... I will ]
Sara : [ what do you mean ?? You don't think I am capable of protecting myself ?? ]
Avon pulled his sword and cut one of the hanged kids
He catches her gently
Avon : [ no it's not that dear sister ... But imagine what if I lost you like I lost this good friend of mine what do you think I will be ?? Good ?? Grateful ?? Neither now imagine if this girl still alive today imagine how she would look like ... Pretty and beautiful just like you ]
Sara looked at the body
Sara : [ Erien .... ]
Avon : [ I won't lose you ... And if I do all of them shall know the wrath of the humans , every each one of them ]
Sara : [ and what about me ?? Do you ever think what I would feel if I lost you ... Do you think putting yourself on danger for me would solve things .. Sitting on my chaire waiting for my dear brother to come back from his slaughters , NO .... No it will no ... ]
Avon : [ I won't lose that is out if my options , in this journey I have to .... ]
Sara interrupt him and held his face with her soft hand
Sara : [ .... in this journey I will accompany you , every single path either is bad or good I will be there beside you , I will go wherever you go in life and in death we will be together ... Always till the end ]
Avon : [ I am glad to hear this .... But you know my path is not an easy one ]
Sara : [ I know ... And I don't care I won't leaving you alone ever ... ]
She took the little girl body and put it gently on the cart , she then cover her face
They kept walking through the merchant district and they reached the upper gates
They saw it burned down and no where to get from there so they had to walk around the wall to reach the eastern gate in hope its not danger
On their path they witnessed Mountains of body's cramped on top of each other the only thing missing is their heads ...
They reached the eastern gate it was surprisingly in good shape it was wide open but a cart stuck on the middle
They tried to push it over but something was behind it stopping it
They tried to move it out also stuck in between the iron spikes
Avon : [ there is no use we have to find a way in .... The wall here ... Nope too tall ]
Sara was looking at the destroyed stone watchtower
She looked closely and she saw ... A path leading inside
Sara calls Avon : [ Avon !!! There .. "She pointed at the tower " ]
Avon : [ be careful ... We might not know what is inside other then deads ... ]
They walked slowly towards the tower
While they were walking there a written in the wall can be reads { abandon all hope hope yee who enter here ... } the rest is unreadable
Avon touched the writing and he felt it .... A strike in the head ... A strong one
Avon held his head
Sara noticed and rush to him
Sara : [ what's wrong brother ]
She reads the writing
Avon : [ its ... Its ... Their blood ... I can ..... Feel ... It arhhhhhhhh ]
Sara Screamd : [ AVON ... !! AVON !!! stay with me stay with Me ]
She noticed his hands on the wall
Meanwhile Avon was seeing something like figure ... Fire ... Screams ... Laughs ... Sounds of flesh being cuts .... Sound of ... Death .... The red ... Broken sky
He got back to his Normal self
He was taking heavy breath
Sara : [ Avon .. Avon are you okey ?? ]
She held his head
Avon ; [ I guess ... Its one more thing to add with our passive ability ... ]
Sara chuckles : [ you keep saying nonsense as usual ]
Avon : [ let's finish this sister ... Let's give them the rest they need shall we ]
Sara : [ alright then let's do it ]
The got up and kept walking
The reached the tower and they heard the cracking of the walls as something is about to break
They start climbing and surprisingly the wall still intact as it used to be in its prime days
They walked through it and got to the other side safely
Avon got curious to see what made the cart stuck in the wall
He go there to take a look and he saw mountains of dead people there behind the cart
They tried to escape but the cart got stuck or maybe something made it stuck there to keep the people in
The houses were heavily damaged
And they saw they finally saw it after 20+ years
Their house standing as if nothing has changed as if they left yesterday
They walked slowly toward the house every step up there they kept seeing things from the past
Screams and laughs they heard , red sky they saw
Sara : [ its either I am seeing things or I finally did go Crazy not sure whish one ]
Avon : [ its the same image .. From when I touched the wall ... Past ... Laughs .. Screams ... Swords slashing together .. its like this place is stuck in time loop ... Never moved forward from that day ... ]
Sara : [ let's go ... The better we finish early the better we leave this place ... ]
The kept walking towards the hill every step they kept seeing things from other perspective ... The people ... Who died here .... Their souls never left this place
They finally reached it ... The gate of their home ... Completely destroyed ...
Avon : [ ready sister ?? ]
Sara : [ I you are ready so do I ... ]
They smiled
Avon and Sara held hands and moved together towards their home ...
As the view behind the house of the entire village ... Destroyed ...
