Outside the Palace Wall. Agranah.
"Halt!!!!"Alanor called on the top of his voice, holding up his left hand. He was seated on the horse which was facing the army he had just led into Agranah."You all shall remain here while I go to the God-king to inform him of our arrival. Then your fates shall be etched in the platter of time."He looked from an angle of the army to the other, then added,"Keep your place and hold your peace. I can't promise you how early or long twill take to return to you with words."The army echoed a noise inspired by their approval. Alanor turned his horse towards the huge gate locking the walls together. The guards of Agranah guiding the gates opened for him.Point in time he was about to step in, Jaith stepped out. He was quick to words,"If it's not the new king of Agranah.""Former king, you meant."Jaith dismissed, greeting him warmly. Alanor climbed off hEvening. In the Woods of Agranah. "Malisa, Malisa."Hannibal called repeatedly as Malisa, face an epitome of rage, stood up from the round stone and began to walk away. Seeing that his call would breed nothing, he stood up and rushed to her. He grabbed one of her arms,"At least here me out."She snatched her arm from his hold. She barked,"What do you have to say? Sit back and let that bitch of a lady -- no, that heartless panther rip his heart out in the stupid war?"She tried to calm down,"You said already that Kie doesn't want to be the king. And I can attest to that. If he really wanted to, he wouldn't had ran away on my wedding day, knowing what a marriage to a princess would earn him. What every man would kill to have!!!"She allowed the loops of breath to settle in her lungs before she picked up from where she'd stopped,"I can find my way with Kie. He now loves me before that bitch she r
At the mouth of the cave. "Now is the time."Samantha said to Kie. She was dressed in a black flowing gown with red embroidery. Kie was next to her, the both of them standing at the mouth of the cave. Kie was dressed as a warrior, forgive me, an emperor I mean. Or you could say, a Warlord, with eyes trained by rage and vigor. "I can't wait."The hem of his V-shaped red top, paving for the deep black tight pants. The pants sucked halfway into the gleaming hunting boot. A wooly cotton cape overall, hanging around his neck and down his back...He followed her through the dark cave till they came to a stop. "Here we are."She turned to him. Her eyes glowing. He didn't freak out this time. He was already used to it."I've got this."Kie encouraged himself and stepped forward, into a spot he felt was rather convenient. But twasnt really about the convenience, 'twas about a strange spiritual facto
Agranah Palace. "You can't barge i--"A guard tried to stop another guard who was bent on meeting the God-king at once. The desperate guard broke his way through and hurried through the throne hall towards where Xerxes was. The throne hall was filled with the activities like the previous day. You wouldn't had guessed that something fiery was about to scorch Agranah. The guard didn't stop as he hurried through but was stopped by the elites. Xerxes noticed then raised one of his hands. Silence knew its place as usual. But before he could ask, the guard's throat flexed its needs,"The army arrived. The army of the furious dead. They are marching towards the field by the Arena.""Be at peace, dear mortal. How large is this army?"Xerxes' thick voice filled the room. The guard took a few loops of breath before he came on,"Around a thousand army. But they are not humans! They are wierd looking really creepy. I wat
In the Woods of Agranah. "What was that darkness??"Caramel asked, holding both Hannibal and Malisa in her curious gaze. Malisa added to the confusion,"Not once. Not twice. But three times now. Who knows whether or not to expect another?"Hannibal figured out that he was the only one with the answer and didn't keep them hanging,"It's sorcery. It could be Samantha. We both know what she's up to now. She wouldn't stop until she'd helped Kie become the King of Agranah.""There's only one way to find out."That was Malisa. Caramel walked to Hannibal,"Do you think that it's the best option? What if we meet with cruelty. I'm just getting to know you, and don't want to lose you."He held her small face in his palms and assured,"You are not going to lose me. Okay? We'll live beyond these trying times. We've seen worst."She hugged him. He held unto her passionately for a short while.
The batch of 300k men. "Who the fuck fights in the dark for fuck's sake!"Jaith groaned, running from the echo of voices. He could hear the clanging and clashing of swords behind him. He had been running since the battle had become so tough that he could hardly breathe. He had a torch in his hand which lit his way, and he was headed through the single hallway of a royal building. This building was for general meetings which was built in the heart of Agranah. That was the place noblemen met whenever Wealene, the former king, refused to be disturbed by royal advances. "Just a little more."Jaith urged himself, hurrying though the hallway. He could see the door to the room he was heading to. He was very close now. Suddenly, he heard a thud behind him. He flinched, waving the touch towards the direction. He was panting heavily."Who's that?"He called, looking expectantly as well as devastated. The light of
At the front of the Palace Wall. "Hiyahhh!!! Charge!!!"A random call came from one of the two hundred thousands warrior stationed outside the palace wall of Agranah. And then the cries of war succeeded the order. The clanging of swords and squishing of blades which were cutting through the fleshes were the only sounds heard. None of the Agranite soldiers could see each other. The darkness only grew thicker and creepier. "Ahhh!!"A soldier fell off his horse after he'd been served a blow of sword in his chest. Suddenly, one of the soldiers of the furious dead charged at an Agranite soldier and threw the spurting hot water from his chest at the Agranite soldier who screamed,"Holy shit. Holy shit. What was that... what was that?!!!"But after his scream, he rot to the bones. He fell off the horse and a hurrying hoof of one of the undead soldiers crushed his skull. The battle continued as though nothing happened. T
Same. "Take two steps back, dear God-king."Samantha suddenly grew out of the air, behind Kie. There was no point for the startled Kie to turn, Sam had gotten to him. "Do mortals ever get wearied of their own folly?"Xerxes said with contempt. Sam stared at the God-king for a while then took Kie in her gaze,"You army wouldn't budge, right?"Kie nodded. "You should had chosen your words thoughtfully. Do you remember? When you were going to lead the army here... Do you remember what you said?"He thought for a while but his head was blank. He shook his head in disappointment. "March army, March to Agranah,Devour all in our way, all CARNAL!"She reminded him, emphasizing the last word on the second line. "Oh... all CARNAL!"He got the idea, nodding. At the realization, he turned to the God-king with a curious gaze,"If you're not carnal, which is typical
Same. "Will you stop barking like a dog already?!"Samantha retorted with defiance. Kie's eyes widened in prolonged shock at her audacity. He didn't have a choice but to climb down the throne. As he did, he couldn't run over to Malisa to give her a bone-crushing hug. He couldn't think of such thought. He seemed to had been blinded by his own rage. "Say that again you bitch!!!"He was towering over Malisa now. "And if I do, what would you do? Hit me?!!""Don't be so certain."He raised his left hand as a threat but then dropped it voluntarily. Sam scoffed,"I thought as much.""You really think I hesitated because I respect you? Nah! You lost that already. To me, you're no longer a woman, let alone a human. You're just a monster in disguise."That was Kie boiling. Hannibal stepped forward, away from Malisa who all along had feasted her eyes on Kie. "Can we just take a moment ou
