MAGE WARS: Sword of Solace CHAPTER 1.2.1
She felt a warm embrace encompass her. She looked up and saw her mother, hugging her softly.“I understand now what the stranger meant.”She spoke in a cushioned tone. She raised her head and Alicia caught sight of her feint smile.“This miracle was never meant for me. I was just a vessel. To keep it for whoever needed it.”“Mother, what are you talking about?”The entire room was confused. Martha walked up to Reene’s bed and continued her speech.“When I conversed with the stranger, he told me he was about to do something he would not feel proud of, and in the end he would end up hurting himself and people he did not intend to. So he gave me this miracle. He told me that very soon someone would be in dire need of it. And he told me the decision to keep it to myself or help them rested on my shoulders. I now know why he chose me. He choose me because I would never forsake a life for the benefit of my interests. Daughter, I hope one day you will learn to do the same, and when that day

Alicia rode at the front of the pack. Alicia felt betrayed; she had no idea why she wasn't a member of the make-up family, but she was upset about how things had turned out.Lisa had been awakened by the uproar and had remained silent ever since; she was riding in the back of one of the State Guards' horses, Carrs Armani to be precise. Reene and the twins rode alongside the captives' carriage, getting dangerously close to it at points, waiting for the horses hauling it to walk over some rocks, jostle the carriage, and swing the curtains apart so he could catch a glimpse of the dark bender. He was dying for a full-fledged chat with Daito, but he wouldn't be so eager if he knew how 'talkative' Daito was.Albert decided to break the silence by asking, "So, Alicia Iko, I'm guessing you know who I am."Alicia took some time to bottle up her raging emotions and to be sure traces of them were not to be left on her speech."Yes, that's me. I do know you.""A very promising State Guard. I appo

ou are a traitor."Slejj leaned back in his chair and burst out laughing, as if Alicia had said a terrible joke and he was teasing her. It lasted about as long as uncomfortable laughs could last. He went on to say,"You call me a liar all the time, but do you really know what I did, or were you just told?"The skepticism that began to crawl into her mind grew exponentially, mocking her convictions and what she had grown up believing. In the one hand, she was persuading herself that Slejj was nothing more than a traitor who was lying to her, but she still felt she needed to know his side of the story. She could tell which side was going to win.Slejj undid the buttons on his shirt, revealing a deep scar on his chest. A network of black veins sprouted from the mutation at the middle of the dark scar, stretching through his whole chest. The veins weren't normal; they were totally dark, and they swallowed any ray of light that came close to them, making it seem as though there was none th

“Well...”Drom began his narrative, the soldiers tentatively listening.FIVE YEARS AGOWhen Drom looked down, he saw the dagger impaled on his side, piercing his heart. He couldn't see anything in Daito's eyes. They were devoid of detail. His irises were completely dark, and he couldn't see anything through his gaze. Drom was kicked out and fell to the ground. The heads picked up his lifeless body and set sail, finally appearing on top of a hill outside the city walls.Soon after, Alvatrone fired the arrow through Alicia's stomach, and they disappeared, reappearing in front of the Master heads at an unknown location. Alvatrone took a step forward, slitting his wrist and following the Master heads' awakening ritual.“Masters, the Dark Bender has been acquired, and the king has been slain.”The Masters continued to shift in their thrones.“That's fine. We'll go on to the next stage in the strategy, then we'll...”A thunderous sound erupted from inside the building before they could fini

“That’s the last of them. Let us get going before more enemies follow us!”Thomas said, collapsing a chunk of rocks he had suspended over the remaining group of assailants that were following them. They managed to push the refugees out of the forest and into an open field where the path they had followed lay.Drom was amongst the state guards, he tried hard to control the pace of his breathing but he could not. His body was without a functioning heart which made doing anything that required rapid movement a strenuous affair.“How’s the king doing?”Thomas asked the crowd of state guards surrounding him.“Uh, not good sir. He might be losing consciousness.”Robert answered back. As he was giving his response he looked back at Drom and noticed a patch of red coloring on his top. He slightly peaked through the sagging shirt and noticed the heavy layer of bandages running across his chest.“I think he might be injured. And he is losing a lot of blood!”“Quickly then! We have to get clear

To find her, he searched the crowd. When he finally did, he motioned to one of the undead knight guards, and the two of them forced their way through the crowd toward the woman. Her sobs were heavier when she knew they were coming after her, and she made her way through the crowd in an attempt to flee.She didn't get too far; once she was out of the crowd, one of the knights on the outside of the gathering fired an arrow through her chest, and she fell to the deck, clutching her chest. The remainder of the audience gasped in terror as one of the knights approached her and began pulling her by her hair outside the gates, where the Vurhans remained. They grabbed her and ripped her to shreds.“This is not a place for the faint of heart. I would not tolerate cowardice; I have come to establish a kingdom in which the strong survive and the weak exist only to support the victorious. I've brought you all here to recognize me as your new ruler. Your king has succumbed to my grasp. And the lea

The covenant cycle still stands Alicia, meaning the king is still alive!” The atmosphere in the room shifted immediately. “Stop your lies!” “Honestly how many times do I have to tell you I have nothing to gain from lying to you. Think about it. You have been staying inside these walls for five good years after the invasion. The only reason you haven't been attacked by Tyndale is the same reason why you haven't attacked him…. The Vurhans. Dakario placed a strong boundary made of Vurhans between the two of you. Keeping both of you at bay so that they can have more time to find the king and finish him off the end the covenant cycle for good, because if you and Tyndale went to battle and you died it would ruin everything. That is why they were cautious not to leave anything behind that could help you get stronger and break through the boundary.” “… That is why they took the covenant book and killed Hashi,” Alicia responded in realization. “Exactly. So, they sent spies here to monito

They overpowered the knights trying to secure the castle and fell to their blades, most of them cowardly retreating. The vurhans continued their orchestra, by then the whole city had awoken and some started to flee. Tyndale pulled on the cords of his sleeves, soaking in the etches on his sleeve. He blasted colossal clods of energy that exploded on impact, blowing off whatever was near it. Most delegates fell victim to it. The army swarmed into the castle. Thomas Milner fought them off alongside Alexander Xermia and Sigrid Hermon. Julius Aldeim was up against Jrue Deryleen, but he was the first of the twelve family leaders to fall to Deryleen's blade. His arrows were no match for his tempo. He dodged them handily, at long last he ran a blade through his throat and off he went, off to the dead. Arthur Callusios was up against Tyndale. Brute strength against brute strength. He managed to land a hit on the tyrant, using all his martial arts skills to weave and bend himself to make the b
