Chapter 42: The War Approaches
Scene: The grand hall of the South Nation's castle. King Alden stands at the head of a long table, surrounded by his commanders and the heroes. The atmosphere is tense as they discuss their strategies and preparations.
Narrator: In the aftermath of their intense training, the heroes of Elaria and the South Nation's commanders gather to prepare for the impending conflict. The shadows of war loom ever closer, and their resolve is tested by an ominous message from the West.
Suddenly, the doors to the grand hall burst open, and a disheveled scout from the West Nation strides in, flanked by guards. His eyes are filled with malice, and he carries an air of arrogance.
Scout: (sneering) I bring a message from Morgath, Queen of the West. Surrender your nation and the so-called heroes, or face total annihilation in three days.
The hall falls silent, the weight of the threat sinking in. King Alden steps forward, his expression stern and unwavering.
King Alden: (coldly) We will never surrender. Tell your queen that we will stand and fight.
Scout: (laughing) Foolish king. You have sealed your fate. Morgath's forces will crush you.
The guards escort the scout out of the hall, and King Alden turns to his commanders and the heroes, determination burning in his eyes.
King Alden: (firmly) We have three days to prepare. We will meet them in battle and protect our nation at all costs.
Commander Thoran: (grinning) Let them come. We will show them the strength of the South.
Commander Elara: (nodding) Our scouts will keep watch. We will not be caught off guard.
Commander Aric: (calmly) Our defenses are strong. We will hold the line.
Commander Lyra: (determined) We will fight with all we have.
The heroes step forward, their resolve matching that of the commanders.
Eren: (confidently) We'll be ready. They won't know what hit them.
Aria: (resolutely) For Elaria, and for the South Nation.
Rylan: (smirking) Morgath will regret underestimating us.
Lyra: (determined) We will protect our home.

Scout: (fearfully) My queen, the South Nation refuses to surrender. They are preparing for battle.
Morgath: (furiously) Insolent fools! They will learn the true meaning of fear. Prepare the armies. We march in three days.
Her generals, Varak, Zorath, Selene, and Draven, nod and leave to ready the demonic forces. The citadel buzzes with dark energy as the demons prepare for war.
