Lilith's point of view
The blood of my lord ran down my hands and fell on my thighs, as he rested on them, for protecting this filthy city and its insignificant people he had suffered.
I could hardly control my hatred, if it were not for the weakened state in which I find myself and for taking care of him, I would have already jumped on the invading army and after razing it to the ground I would have gone after the city's army.
How dare they, they have no right, we warned them, but they didn't listen to us, God...
Soon, we were all in the tower, looking at him.
His pulse had slowed to a great extent and his breathing was labored, it was a scene I would never wish to contemplate and yet, here he is.
-Lilith, I understand your emotions, but this is no time for anger, our lord has given his all to win this war and it is our job to complete his wish. - Irina looked at me and although her words were true, by how tightly she was clenching her left fist, behind her back, I could understand how much anger she was holding back.
This was happening in all of us, some like Pele and Velona, were already showing their death wish and others like Charon or Gal were not missing a glance of the battle, like felines stalking their prey.
These companions of mine were saying so many things, but they were all thinking of jumping and tearing the enemies, well and allies alike.
I raised my voice so that the annoying siren could hear me.
-We will need about 10 minutes to be able to fight, protect us during this time - I could see her from the tower, she nodded and shouted to her soldiers.
-Staff weapons up, shields first line, distance, do not stop your attacks on their unit balls, focus on the monstrous forces that have not yet arrived - With a loud shout, the army gave their confirmation.
-Gea, you with Charon, will defend our lord, the rest of us, in ten minutes we will launch into combat - I picked up my lord carefully and we went down from the tower, there we were in plain sight, we hid behind it and waited for our bodies to return to their best, I also left with great regret Hel in Gaea's lap, her healing aura could help him relieve the stress on his body, mind and soul.
Although I admit that seeing him there bothers me a lot.
Gwen's point of view
Under my command a strong wall held against the swell of enemies, the units held, but only that, the strong smell of blood in the air showed that the battle had taken quite a few lives.
But this result was obvious.
-My queen, we have a report on the left side, in these 3 minutes of close combat, we have suffered over 50 casualties and rising, the monstrous units break our lines and cause much chaos. We will not be able to hold on at this rate - A messenger with undoubtedly bad news.
Two others arrived from their respective areas of the battlefield, with very similar messages, the only good thing is that they have not yet completely broken our formation.
The battle in the air, we were also at a disadvantage, but thanks to the priestess archers and Luneth herself, it was stabilizing, thanks to her prayers her arrows always hit, this in terrestrial units can be acceptable, if they hit, but they hit a shoulder or a side of the belly, in not mortal zones of the body, then nothing worrisome happened, but in air units, each hit would be equivalent to lose the balance and surely in a direct death, with each shot, an enemy unit descended from the sky without control and would be swallowed by the tide of soldiers.
The only pity of this situation, are the few units of priestesses and that they would soon be too exhausted to be able to launch more of their theurgy.
When this happens, then Olivia will be at a strong disadvantage.
The only good thing about this situation, is that there is nothing left for those minutes to have passed, I just hope they can achieve some miracle, if not, this battle will be completely lost and with it, my city and all my effort.
Hel, I hope I can reciprocate your suffering and achieve victory.
I looked at Leva and nodded.
He first denied, but then couldn't help but look up at the now empty tower and began to shiver and smile.
- It will be my pleasure my lady to accompany you to mow down those filthy turtles - With these words we shouted out loud, so that our army would hear us and we charged to the front line, today Caer Ys will survive, if only thanks to our deaths.
