“They would have continued with the second phase of 1 plan straight after the invasion, but they did not account for you to renew the covenant. 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
WALLS OF NORTH ANGUSStanding at the peak of one of the hills poking out of the surface they eyed the dying lights of the city. Slowly the flickering lights died down, it was midnight, the villagers were shutting their windows, traders were blowing out their candles, the night sky informed them it was time to sleep.Dakario stood beside his king. A few steps beside them stood the feminine figure, surrounded by eight other ladies armed to the teeth. The vurhanil king swiped at the buzzing flies aviating over the piece of stake he had in his hand. He hoisted it with both hands and sunk his rusty teeth into it, ripping off a hulky chunk. Jawing on the meat, he licked his lips cleaning off the blood.“Midnight, it is time. Tell them to surround the walls.” the vurhanil king said, pointing a ragged bone towards Darakio.“ Yes master,” Dakario said, turning to the thousands of vurhans loitering in the valley beneath. Dakario rolled down his eyelids and lowered his brows in concentration. Al
As the fighting went on the other figures walked up towards Daito and Drom. Daito picked him up and placed him over his shoulders. He was still not moving Anato Strider finished up hitting some more soldiers then walked up to the others. Lady Melo has begun advancing towards them, but something caught her eye. Lisa was at the staircase leading to the dungeons, she was trotting towards the cells whimpering when Lady Melo saw her. "Hey, Mistress Its time! We have the king let's go!" One of her eight assassins yelled to her, but she didn't hear her, she was fixated on saving that girl from all the bloodshed and violence, it was all she did. She surged towards her, but Reene saw her and swiftly pursued her. Alicia happened to be in range when Daito teleported, so she teleported along with him. They ended up outside the castle, on one of the southern hills. Daito picked up the dagger, he slowly impaled himself, Alicia watched on as the blade tardily made its way into his torso. It rested
Jawing on the meat, he licked his lips cleaning off the blood. “Midnight, it is time. Tell them to surround the walls.” the vurhanil king said, pointing a ragged bone towards Darakio. “ Yes master,” Dakario said, turning to the thousands of vurhans loitering in the valley beneath. Dakario rolled down his eyelids and lowered his brows in concentration. All the vurhans simultaneously began dash into the forest leading towards the walls of Royal Republic. They spread across the field aiming to surround the walls. Their furious stomps echoed throughout the forest, sounding like a huge landslide. Their shrieks shook leaves off their branches and their feet dug out the solid underneath them as they ran. Further south a blaring yell of a battle horn sounded. The three turned their attention towards the sound and saw the army of undead knights trampling over the miniature hill, from afar they looked like dolls, but their torches flickered like fireflies and the fumes of burning oil reached
“Exactly. So, they sent spies here to monitor your state, and lately you have been getting stronger. And once one of the spies broke cover and was seen conscious they knew it was only a matter of time before they were discovered so a plan was made for their extraction, and they scouted everything so they knew the festival would be the right time.” “...So you mean to tell me Drom is still alive, but I saw him die!” “If he was truly dead the covenant seal would have never appeared on your back, so I am certain he is alive, somewhere. Now please unlock the shackles, that is if you want to learn more.” Alicia unlocked her chains, making sure her guard was still up, many things had slipped through her grasp that night and she wanted to be in control of that situation. “And where does my mother fit into all of this?” “For this…” Like a snake she rapidly slithered her way past the state guards and knocked Robert off his feet, taking control of the wheelchair Martha was sitting on. She
he chants set off a chain reaction. The public hanging of one of their delegates frightened the shocked audience even more. Tyndale grumbled softly as he watched the audience press back towards the surrounding walls, backing away from him. He tossed Rowan's dead body across the platform, scraping a few splinters off the wooden deck as it rolled across the podium. He went on to the next victim, Sho Akiro, who was kneeling beside Rowan, still breathing. His slim frame was easily picked up. Before he had picked him up off the deck, Tyndale clenched his throat even tighter than before, nearly crushing it. He didn't hesitate to recite his trademark prayer this time, instead driving a fist into Akiro's chest. The energy immediately poured out of Akiro's chest and into his arm. He threw him free, just as he had his previous victim, which disturbed the crowd even more. The undead knights at the back of the line poked their swords into the backs of those in the crowd who were turning their b

So, they sent spies here to monitor your state, and lately you have been getting stronger. And once one of the
to?" " Defectors State!" The mention of the State sent chills down both Drom's and Harmel's spines. "Uhm...that's odd, why do you want to go there at a time like this?" "Neglected as it may be it is still part of the Independent States. Why? Is there something wrong with me going there?" "... No nothing, it's just that it seems so odd of you." "It's just a quick visit then I'll be on my way off. By the way the class of state guards I choose this year? They are a promising lot aren't they?" Drom straightened, " Yes they most definitely are." "Yes, especially that girl, she was the most auspicious of all. What was her name...uhm Alicia yes!" Harmel and Drom both rolled their eyes and secretly gave themselves short glances. Things were starting to get suspicious and they both felt it. " She will definitely be a good addition to the Core. Where is she now?" Drom swallowed nervously, " She...Uhm, honestly I'm not sure. I haven't yet assigned them their posts so she might be in
