《Escalodia - The Dark Age》Save My Homeland (Part I)
Advertisement
After traveling for about 2 days and the weather that day was cloudy. Cyril and Samara watched from a distance a group of soldiers from the Evil Elf nation [Dark Elf] who were plundering merchants from Villmort. "Look at Cyril, it looks like there are Dark Elves who are plundering a merchant of the Villmort Kingdom, even though they have tried to kill us, we must still help them." Said Samara, pointing towards the plunder. Cyril agreed with Samara and they accelerated the pace of their horses to help the merchant.
"Hey you! What are you doing to that merchant ?" Cyril asked the Dark Elf soldiers. "This is none of your business, get out of here you little kids !" said one of the soldiers. "Everything that happened to the people from the Villmort Kingdom is now my business !" shouted Cyril angrily towards the soldiers. "Let's finish this kids" said one of the Dark Elves. "Yeaahhhh !!" shouted the Dark Elf soldiers and suddenly the rain fell quite hard.
"Samara get ready" said Cyril, smiling at Samara with reassuring tone. Cyril and Samara fought again with around 8 Dark Elf soldiers. The two of them got off their horses, respectively, preparing to fight the soldiers. Cyril and Samara immediately stepped forward and swung their swords at the soldiers. The fight took place and Cyril was able to separate the soldiers into 2 groups each, 5 against Cyril and 3 against Samara.
Cyril continued to try to survive from the attacks of the soldiers who were with him.
Meanwhile Samara tried hard to avoid the attacks of the soldiers and with enough martial arts techniques that Samara had mastered, she was able to avoid and take over the sword that was being held by one of the soldiers and stabbed it back into the soldier until he died. Then Samara used the two swords she was holding to block all the attacks from the soldiers then took the opportunity when they started to let their guard down and thrust the two swords at the two soldiers and pierced their backs. After Samara managed to defeat the three soldiers who were with her, she immediately went to Cyril to help him. The frightened merchant called Samara from behind his horse carriage "Hey miss, use my arrow" then he threw the arrow along with the arrow at Samara and Samara thanked him and used the arrow to help Cyril.
When Cyril was trying to repel all the attacks from the soldiers, an arrow shot very quickly towards the soldiers surrounding Cyril and hit the body of one of the soldiers and killed him. Then they were all shocked and wondered where this arrow was coming from. Then all of them seeing Samara from the top of the tree who is getting ready to shoot his arrow again. Cyril moved very quickly to take advantage of the circumstances and managed to injure a soldier's leg and kill him. The concentration of the soldiers broke down and Samara was able to kill 2 more soldiers with her arrows. And Cyril also killed another soldier with his sword and left a soldier to live as his hostage. Then the rain started to stop slowly and the sun began to appear again.
After they both managed to defeat the soldiers and take one of them as a hostage to seek more information, Cyril and Samara went to the merchant to make sure his condition. "Sir, are you all right ?" Cyril asked the merchant. "Yes sir, I'm fine. Thank you very much, sir, for your help," replied the merchant while he bow down to holding Cyril's leg. But Cyril immediately helped the man to wake up and felt it was inappropriate for him to bow down to him. "Hey sir, don't be like that, I'm just doing my job as a human" Cyril said to him with a smile. "Sir, I will return the bow to you, thank you for helping us," said Samara, handing back the bow. "No miss, you just keep that thing, just think of it as a gift from me because you both have helped me. I do not know what will happen to me if both of you are not there," said the merchant. Then they walked towards the cave not far away to spend the night.

After talking with the merchant about Villmort's situation, the day passed quickly and night fell. Cyril also approached the soldiers he was hostage to ask what really happened. "Answer my question correctly, what are you doing in the human territory?!" Cyril asked in a quite loud tone. "We are just soldiers sent to monitor and patrol the Villmort area, sir," replied the soldier in fear. "Then why are you robbing this merchant ?!" Cyril asked again with a tone louder to him then slapped him. "At that time the food supplies ran out and we started to starve, then the merchant passed not far from where we were. So we immediately moved to rob him, please forgive me sir, please forgive me " replied the soldier, crying.
"And why are you ordered to spy and patrol this area ?" Asked Cyril again. "We from the Dark Urkmar Kingdom (Dark Elf Nation) are at war with Villmort and we have managed to enter the city but we suffered defeat due to the help of the human nation alliance forces so we haven't been able to take over the city. So we have prepared more troops to attack Villmort again. Maybe in about 1 week from now the Dark Urkmar army will arrive at Villmort and attack again. " The soldier replied while telling what would happen to Cyril.
Cyril was surprised after hearing the story from the soldier and said to him "Okay, you can go now and tell them that I, Cyril de Arc Mirage will not back down and wait for you on the battlefield later" then Cyril freed the soldier and let him go. The soldier thanked Cyril and promised to deliver the message to the Dark Urkmar Kingdom. Then Samara approached Cyril and grabbed Cyril's shoulder while saying to him, "It's time for you to rest Cyril, this is quite a tiring day, isn't it? we have to continue tomorrow morning to Villmort anyway ". Cyril also said to Samara "Well, we should both rest for tomorrow's trip". Then went to sleep Cyril and Samara and the merchant who was with them.
Early in the morning before sunrise the three of them had continued their journey towards Villmort. After taking a long time then they arrived near the gate of the Villmort Kingdom and the three of them were very surprised because part of the walls of the Villmort Kingdom are collapsed and the city was successfully burned. Then the three of them entered the Villmort kingdom and moved directly towards the palace. Only the soldiers were visible along the city streets. they are repairing the defensive walls and partly trying to clear the city.
The three of them arrived at the Villmort palace and met the guards and the guard asked the three of them "What are you doing here ?!". "We have important news and want to convey it to the king, it is related to the Dark Urkmar Kingdom and the upcoming war," Cyril replied to the guard. Then the three of them were allowed to enter but still with the escort of the guard. And the palace had gathered the war generals from the Villmort Kingdom and the royal advisors. They were all surprised by the arrival of Cyril and Samara with the merchant too.
"What's this stranger doing in this place ?" Asked one of the generals to Cyril. "We have important news about the Dark Urkmar Empire and the attack that will take place" Cyril replied to the general. Then Cyril told everything to everyone who was there. then the generals and advisors began to strategize in order to survive once again from the attacks of the Dark Urkmar Kingdom. Shortly after Cyril told everything, came a scout from Villmort who was on duty near the Guildon Valley (Valley which is located on the border of Villmort, approximately 1 week from the Villmort Kingdom) and said "Gentlemen, I am from the surveillance team near the Guildon Valley to report the the movement of Dark Urkmar's troops who are heading here with an army of approximately 7,000 men ". "We'd better have to strengthen our defenses by digging trenches filled with sharp spears as traps around the city walls, then fully arming our archers so they can withstand their attacks," Cyril said quickly after hearing what the scout had said.

Then the generals conferred and one of the generals said, "All right, listen to this, Commander Ludwig Bulkhansen and Commander Strauz von Gylffon will lead training for soldiers whose citizens are helping, Commander Francis de Horn will look after the citizens who are evacuated to the Zilgor Kingdom. Commander Hans Jorgensen and Commander Braug Hillsman will focus on the defense of the city and you young people (pointing towards Cyril), you will help Commander Braug in carrying out his duties, all of you understand ?! " said the general, "All right, General Guillermo" answered all that was in that place.
[General Guillermo El Fiendgard is one of the high ranking generals belonging to the Villmort Kingdom besides Augusta, he is famous for his ability to analyze enemy movements quite well and his prowess in the war against the Elves in the past. Indirectly, this general Guillermo is also the sibling of King Stuart who supports the current King's government].
Then disperse them all by carrying out their respective duties. Meanwhile Cyril and Samara met the merchant and said "Sir, you better go to Zilgor Kingdom so that it is safe there" Cyril said to him. "Yes sir Cyril, it looks like I will go there to make it safer and thank you very much you, then for the last gift I have armor ranging from body armor to pretty good weapons and I will give it all to you, wait here for a moment" then The merchant went to his chariot to take what he promised Cyril. "Samara should you also come with him to Zilgor so that you are safe there and can start a new life" Cyril said to Samara while convincing her to leave but Samara refused and said "No Cyril, I have been indebted to you when you helped me out of prison and from now on I will accompany you wherever you go." After a long debate, Cyril also allowed Samara to be near him, but on the condition that she had to listen to all of Cyril's words first.
The merchant came carrying what he promised and gave it to Cyril. Cyril also tried it and it fits perfectly with Cyril, making his appearance even more manly than before. "I just don't want to lose the person I love for the second time, I want to always be by your side to take care of you Cyril" Samara said in his heart. Then they began to part with the merchant who was going on a journey with the others to Zilgor. "I'll wait for you two there," said the merchant, waving his hand towards Cyril and Samara.
Then Cyril and Samara gathered together with Commander Braug's troops to help him strengthen the defenses of the city as well as start training so that he was ready for the real war. And the remaining troops at that time in the Villmort Kingdom were approximately 4,000 people. Cyril also began to share his opinion with Commander Braug. They all cooperate with each other in order to complete this task on time so that what has been planned works. Meanwhile, the Dark Elf soldier who had met Cyril before had arrived at the Dark Urkmar troop camp and met the commanders there and conveyed what Cyril had told him. Then one of the Dark Elf war advisors who was also one of the 13 high ranking Wizards, namely "Ra'El Elthamar The Watcher" said "The time has come". Then he ordered to speed up preparations for the attack on the Villmort Kingdom.
Then at another place, Commander Augusta who was near the border of Zilgor and Villmort heard the news that there was an attack on the Villmort Kingdom so he immediately went back to the Villmort kingdom with the remaining troops he had. Approximately 1,200 cavalries remained from the previous war.
The day passed so fast and Cyril had finished his job as well as the others. And the day came when the attack would take place and it rained quite heavily on that day. Prepare all Villmort troops in their respective positions. Then came the sound of a trumpet that was quite loud from a distance and began to see Dark Urkmar's troops from a distance and approached the Kingdom of Villmort. By forming their ranks and complete weaponry, they are ready to go to war.
Then Commander Guillermo heard shouting while encouraging Villmort's troops, "Sons of Villmort, prepare yourselves to defend your homeland, don't let them scare you but raise your heads, stand in your pride, protect our homeland, our family and all those we love here..... , Archers...... ready, aim your arrows, FOR VILLMORT...... SHOOT !! " he yelled to Villmort troops as he pointed his sword at Dark Urkmar's Army.
"This is the time I will fight for the real land of my birth. Wait dad I will definitely finish all this and I will definitely meet you" Cyril said in his heart.

8 127A Hunt Upon Wings of Shadows
Lianne has spent the last few years of her life as a nomadic monster-hunter, aimlessly taking jobs and disappearing without a trace. Her innately high ether reserves are the only thing that’s keeping her alive. After a painful yet successful contract, she receives an offer to hunt a peculiar beast from a mysterious man who- much to her dismay- pairs her with a man by the name of Sirius, a skilled swordsman with too much empathy to give out. At the same time, inside the impossibly tall walls of the divine city, a group of soldiers including a naive yet powerful girl by the name of Felicia, an exemplar soldier named Raynauld, and a scarred and aloof woman named Maria prepare to head out on a mission to deliver justice to a deserter who is reported to be in a large town far outside the lush interior of the city. However, the two groups will find that their paths will intertwine, and painful memories will push them against each other at every turn, with new monsters emerging from the shadows to pick each of them apart piece by piece. ************************** Alright, so this is the first book I've posted here, and I've been sitting on this idea for a long while. I'm open to any pieces of criticism, and I would be glad to receive tips and advice. Enjoy! Normally, new chapters come out Saturday nights, sometimes double uploads if there's a short chapter or if I feel like it. That's subject to change if I run out of the current backlog. Second note, this is the first draft, and some things (like a few characters) are going to be cut. It's still going to be the same storyline, but keep that in mind.
