As the amiral stood there the other had already got on there horse and were waiting for him. Khiiro was stil in shook by what happened, he seen worse but it was in time of war, or maybe it was a war ? Perhaps the baron declared war on the Tishoa clan just because he wanted them to die ? The amiral regain control of his mind and realized he was just making the other wait. He praticlly run to his horse, mont it and joined the baron as the first in the battalion.
" Alright everyone ! Lets be fast because they might already have started to pack there stuff ! Be efficient and quick ! " said the baron
The baron and the amiral advance both at high speed followed by the soldier. They followed the direction provide by the now dead familly of farmer and arrive at that broken rock. By that point the baron was now leading and the amiral was now by is soldier. Some looked at there amiral wondering why he was so...so dark ? Why did he fix the burning house ? What did he saw inside the house ? I'm sure it was those so called farmer that made I'm this way ! Those criminal most have done horrible stuff inside that house ! No surprise they helped those traitor !
All the soldier were agreed that the fate of the farmes was deserved and that the baron is a hero. Thea amiral had a hard time believing himself that everything was fine and agreeing with his soldier. Even tho the women and the men tried to armed the baron those children didn't deserved that kind of death... poor souls he said in his mind, their gods abandonned them, Khiiro remembered exactly what the baron had told him the night after the Tishoa clan was cast aside from the power.
That night, the capital was in flame, the castle had lost its colorful image and was now a dark place who the last inhabitant had fleed the place just an hour ago and left alot of stuff in there. The baron army didn't cared to left anything to anyone but themself but as the power was now by a military force, Khiiro, only a commandant of the old army, became one of the higest ranking people in the island, which was like a dream to him. He though he was the luckiest and yet the unluckiest person of Dramo to in the same day becoming commandant then amiral, now he had to prooved he was worthy of the tittle. The baron had request that Khiiro came to the roof of the castle to have a talk. The amiral did so and what happened next stayed in his mind the rest of his mind.
" Come now amiral Khiiro. Sit by my side " said the baron sitting on a broken pillar which form a perfecly an accidental homemade chair.
" As you wish sir " Khiiro then sat on the next broken pillar which wow was the same as the baron, accidental chair !
" Look at the burning capital and tell me what do you see " the Baron said
" I see the capital burning " Khiiro answer
" Boring ! Tell me what you really see ! "
" Well I see the end of an era that I didn't really took part in " Khiiro said
" Interesting answer... "
The both of them didn't speak for about a minute, just looking at the big fire covering the capital, the cloud having this red shadow on them and the sky cover in the thick black fog. But then Khiiro ask the same question to the baron.
" What do you see sir ? "
It takes about five secondes for the baron to give the answer but when he did, the amiral wasn't expecting it.
" I see the consequence of years of idiot believe, I see people with only gods in there minds having a reality check. I see the rage of the rage of the people of this island, screaming to get revenge on the clan that abandoned them. I see failure, anger, revenge and a job well done. But not finish " the baron said with almost discousted
" What do you mean ? "
" It is not of your... status to know amiral. Just be the best of yourself ! Just like in this very moment ! " the baron said with a smile
" Okay sir... but...
The baron turned to the amiral with a questionnable look on his face, he waited to what but.
" Don't you think there will use their gods against us ? "
" No. Will they tried ? Yes but that won't work. " the baron answered
" Why ? " the amiral asked
" Because their gods, if they are even real, abanded them, just like they left their people. "
" But why ? "
" Let me tell you something that a great person once said to, never trust something you can't see. Because it could be a god or the spirit of a ancient evil. Either way, it doesn't want you to see it "
The baron had that aura of the guy who never believed in spirit or magic but he had proven the amiral wrong. That day he had made another servant to his army.
That night, the baron had made another soldier for himself in his loyal army. And Khiiro now remembered why he needed to never trust those who came before the baron, because they did not think about the people, no only the baron was intelligent egnouth to replace them. Now Khiiro had to help him in the war against the Tishoa clan.
