Chapter 12 - Long distance yet short journey

There are two other villages or nest beside Melin nest. Harpy as i called them are of various species and they are vary in size according to their species. Melin is around 6.7 ft and has two large eagle wings which resembles great philipines eagle , because her wings has dark brown and white beneath her wings with bluish eyes, the wingspan is about 12.5ft. And her two sisters are also around 6.5ft and as most of the human are around 5.7ft , they are easy to catch them from the ground with ease.

They made nest nearest to the Kale Kingdom pathway and developed deep hatred for human because their mother Mel has been killed by explorer from the confederate while their mother takes them out on a flight lesson when they're just around five years old .

Melin is the eldest,with Mila the middle and Molan being the youngest. Melin as the eldest and knows details of what happened during that incident didn't want to blame everything on human explorer because her mother forbids her. But her little sisters didn't heed melin advice and hate her for her tolerance towards human whether they are male, female or children and break away from the main nest . Now they have around two hundred harpy at each nest , most of the harpy in each break away are made of birds of prey species such as owl, condor,falcon etc....and they patrol around the Kale Kingdom highway day and night in search of human who trespass into their territories. But thanks to Melin intervention and holding them back , there are not many casualties among the explorer except for those who are extremely unlucky for example the spy for the empire who are caught by Mila and Molan as they enter the Gard mountain.

Most of the prey they caught were killed in a very gruesome way. Mila likes to tore away both arm before dropping them from a high altitude. While Molan tends to dropped them from a very high altitude and catch them midway before they reach ground , and she will repeat dropping and catching them until they're break . That was the fate of those who are captured now.

.......

Yesterday was very helpful for me because I've got information about something I'd never know before. And now I'm here searching for another intelligent creature who lives in the Gard forest. While I'm searching for that I noticed something which grossed me out. Human beings snatched into the sky by harpy and after a while they are dropped into a specific place where they reached ground they popped and splattered like a popped balloon. I need to talk about this to melin , I know that we need to protect this forest from the invader but that is a bit much. And I'm a little bit ashamed of myself because I may be the caused of that.

I forgot what I intended to do in the first place because of what I've just witnessed. The deed done by the empire was way too gruesome but this is just on the same level as the empire deeds. If they perform unthinkable deeds it may be justifiable, but they may be bad guys and i didn't know if this guys are bad or not.....but let's just hope that they are bad guys.

As all my enthusiasm gone away like a leaves blown away by a wind, I decided to take a flight south towards the empire hoping to find something.

..........

In the further south of the twin mountain is a remote countryside which is very peaceful place unlike the frontline. There a young man around twenty is just getting down from a carriage which isn't good at protection from rain and sun. The man was called Alistar and he's just returned from the frontline where he served as a guard for a Caravan which supply food for the empire soldiers . There he saw various kind of Gore and inhuman act towards their fellow human which makes him wonder about humanity.

Just a few days ago he was present in the day when Kale Kingdom capital was fallen into the hands of the empire and what comes after that. He returned to his home Village as quick as he can and only spend around two days to reach his home.

As he was near his house which is build in a middle of the small peak where the settings sun in the sea and the fishing ship which are returning into the pier can be seen clearly, a maid with exceptional beauty came outside from the house and say's "welcome home. Young masters" "How did it go??" "Did you makes up your mind???.

Alistair said with a heavy tone that he need time and enter the house.

The maid stare into the setting sun as if staring into the world beyond what can be seen and whispers " when will this mission will end?? Master" and shed a single tear.
