The wind whirled around a few more leaves but it was from Majoh or the woman with the long braid
nothing to see anymore. For a few moments no one dared move. But then Sylphie walked
on the balcony and looked down. Rin ran a hand through his hair. "Well, I'd have that now
but not expected. "He looked at Vereesa," At least he could have told us where he was going. "
Vereesa nodded "Yes, and who was this strange woman who was with him? Sylphie say too
What. Aren't you sad that he's just running away? "Sylphie was still looking over them
Roofs of the city, she answered calmly "I know, actually I should be sad that he's gone.
But he said he was coming back. I know he'll keep his promise
maybe that's why I'm not really as sad as one should expect. I think it will be his
have good reasons "Rin and Vereesa nodded" Yes, you are right.Hmm what now? What's next? "
Vereesa looked blankly at her companion "Well, how well. I think we're going to be one now
Stay here a while and support the king's troops. He also said yes that he
comes back. "Rin nodded" Hmm, I think I'll have a look at my new squad.
Are you coming too? "Vereesa nodded and Sylphie also accepted the suggestion. Dreamily she threw
one last look at the horizon, a small glittering tear stole from the corner of her eye and
to herself she whispered "Please come back soon"
A few months passed. The dark troops dared to push against the areas again and again
of Asra's Free Lands. Quite a few areas had to face the strong pressure of the Legion
give in and so they had already succeeded in capturing many villages and towns and important ones
Build bases. Again and again there was fierce fighting for new areas. TheTroops from the Free Lands fought back bravely, but the time of peace was now definitely over.
Much time had passed since that day.
The warriors were just returning from their last fight in the great hall. With visibly good ones
Mood, as conveyed by the loud singing and the calls of joy. They had a splendid one
Battle fought with few losses on their own side. A girl just put hers
light armor, under which she only wore the robe customary for magicians, on a bench and shook
her long black hair. A dark elf came by and patted her on the shoulder. Rin
grinned "Well, Sylphie are you all right?" Sylphie nodded, smiling, which Rin only made wider
grinned "That was another glorious battle for the free countries" Again Sylphie nodded
"Yes, we were able to successfully free the village of Tatares from the clutches of the Legion.I only hope so
these do not immediately make a counter-attack on the village. "" It will be fine "Rin knocked her
back on his shoulders and then joined the howling warriors. Vereesa was too
well, Sylphie had already made sure of that on the way back. Vereesa was now that
Commander in chief of the scouting troops and also in the assassin troop she had a good reputation.
Rin had made a name for himself in the army, he was in command of a small one
Elite unit called Shadowleaves. Sylphie herself had contented herself with something like
has become a master and teacher for the other magicians. Their magical powers had become
already very advanced and they were known and respected everywhere. Sylphie was straight
on the way to the bathroom when someone was holding her shoulder. When she turned she spied
Gill, one of the magicians under her command.He grinned all over his face. "I'm happy
me that nothing happened to you, Sylphie "She gave him a kind smile" Thank you for yours
Worry with me everything is fine. But it's not just that I deserve your visit
right? What do you want to know? "Gill ran a little red" You saw through me. Now
because "he took a deep breath in and out again" I wanted to ask if I would invite you to dinner
should "Sylphie had to grin" But only if I can pay myself, I am not happy
owe someone something. "" Agreed, "Sylphie nodded to Gill, who was beaming with joy," Good
but now I would like to wash and rest a little, we'll see you in the evening "
Sylphie disappeared in the anteroom to the bathroom. In the bathroom itself, she met Vereesa and her others
female comrades. She joined them and the conversations began immediately. Vereesacrept up to Sylphie so quietly that she would be shocked if she hadn't known that she was
that does. "Hey Sylphie here again" grinned the night elf "Yes, I still had something to clarify" Vereesa
looked at her crooked "So what?" "Gill invited me to dinner" said Sylphie without herself
to turn around. On Vereesa's face there was a big grin "Is that your lover?" Jerky
Sylphie turned around, with a bright red head she replied "Don't talk nonsense, he's not
My beloved. But he's a nice young man if that's what you mean. "" Yes if that's soo "
Vereesa said with an insidious undertone. The two went into the water and left
rest their muscles.
Rin was already on the way again. He wanted to look at the things that they got from the enemy
Had captured camp in Tatares. At the entrance the guards saluted him so jerkily the Rinwinced "EH ?? Hey don't scare me like that, stop it. You know I don't like that"
The guards grinned "I understand Sir Nightclaw" "And calls me Rin" The dark elf left
further. He wasn't used to being addressed with such a high title. Was formerly
just the son, or the friend. He entered the small chamber in which another commandant
also inspected the prey. He stepped up to him to say "Greetings to Commander Garos" Garos had said
apparently not hearing him coming he winced. "Aaaah the young Rin Nightclaw.
Here to see what we've stolen "" So it is "Garos grinned" Well, it is not much.
Some weapons as well as explosive powder and letters of order, but most of them are already too old. But
we continue searching. And of course we have still captured food, which we, however, under the
remaining population of Tatares."" Too good, the people there have bitter food
necessary, especially now "Garos nodded" Yes, you've been through a lot and it's not yet
past. However, we managed to free them from the clutches of the Legion. Really a
glorious fight. Just ... "Rin looked at him questioningly" Just what? "" Well yes "The commander seemed to
wondering if he should say "Well it is so. During the battle when we went to the keep
intruded, men kept telling that they had found guards, dead in some
a corner. Everyone's throat was slit. Well and now I keep wondering who is
it couldn't have been our men. "Rin thought," That's strange, though "
Garos patted him on the shoulder. "But don't worry, I'm sure we are
will find out soon enough.The two left the storage room and appeared
the farm. Suddenly shouts made them sit up and take notice. One of the guards came up to her, "Sir Garos a messenger
has just arrived from Kinto with an urgent message "the commander nodded" Good
bring him here "the guard disappeared and came back seconds later accompanied by the messenger.
The messenger bows to the commandant "Well then, report" He saw in the messenger's face
the effort of the journey, but there was something else too, despair. "Sir, I'm coming with you
terrible news. The castle in Kinto has fallen, which means that all of Bladou is now
is under the control of Marble. "Those present froze in horror. Kinto had fallen?
Bladou under Marmar's control? The guard first spoke up again, "But how is that possible?
The warriors in Bladou and especially in Kinto are excellent. They also have that
mighty winged dragons who stand by them "Garos nodded" He is right, what is it like Marmosucceeded in overcoming this struggle? "" I can't say exactly, as you can tell me directly
sent off at the start of the fight. However, I can be happy that I survived.
On the way out of the castle I ran into the hands of the enemy. A young warrior with
snow-white hair and blood-red eyes. "These words made Rin freeze, he grabbed him
Messenger on the shoulders "Is that true? Did he say his name?" When he realized it was his
Behavior was impossible, he let go of him. The messenger rubbed his arms, "He said to me," Go and
tell the King of Hollodrum the following, The conquest of Asra has begun, I will be Naze
present the king's head on a gold platter to the dark ruler>. That was what he was
said to me. And then suddenly, as if by magic, I was standing at the edge of the forest in front of the castle when I was
turned me around it burned brightly. I saddled a horse and rode to you as fast as I could. "The commander turned to the guard, "Make sure that he gets food and himself
can rest "The guard saluted and led the exhausted man into the castle. Rin and Garos
stayed in the courtyard "Rin what are you thinking about?" Rin looked very worried though, "Naze is
awakens That's bad, very bad. Now we have a big problem more "Garos nodded" I
I understand .... Perhaps you should also rest a little, I understand that you guys like that
Concern concerns, but you must not allow yourselves to be guided by personal quarrels. "Rin nodded" You did
Law. I wish you a nice evening "Rin saluted and disappeared into the same
Direction as before the guards and the messenger. On the way to his room he considered
whether maybe he should tell the others about the news. But Rin was sure that Garos
was on his way to the king at the same moment to deliver the news.It would
soon to be announced anyway, and he didn't want to incriminate them either. So
he decided to go straight to his room to look for sleep.
