Chapter 52

Amon’s face ran cold, the small glint of hope he had in his eyes slowly dulled and faded away, what stood before him was a vast sea of soldiers and adventurers alike clad in white and red amor, but what he was focused on was his brother, who walked in front of the vast army as they marched on behind him, he couldn’t see auric’s face but he knew that he was grinning to himself,

“relax, we took the long way for a reason”, yumi said, nudging him in his side gently,

Amon took a deep breath, “yeah I guess you’re right”, Amon said, his worried expression, slowly lifting off of his face,

“But I have to say that is impressive, sending out so many of the castle’s soldiers”, Amon commented,

“yeah, I’m betting that that was all Ea’s idea, I hate to admit it but he knows how to make an entrance, whenever he ascends the throne he will be a force to reckoned with”, yumi stated,

“now since you’ve calmed down a bit, why don’t we get this show started”, yumi said as she walked in front of him,

“yeah let’s”, Amon replied,

“EVERY ONE GATHER ROUND”, Amon shouted, immediately all of the rebel army soldiers turned facing down the vast army approaching them, but the army of Dracht had stopped standing their ground as their banners swayed in the wind, Aluric however kept walking. As he made his way Large towers sprang up as id they were growing from the ground itself’, and as the towers went up so did the wall of the city also.

“ I’m Surprised that he wants to parley before the fighting starts”, Amon said, stepping down from the large boulder he was on, his hand clutched around his sword.

“you’re going ?”, yumi asked,

Unauthorized tale usage: if you spot this story on Amazon, report the violation.

“of course, wouldn’t want to miss this opportunity, to talk to my little brother one last time”, Amon said, his back turned to yumi as he marched forward towards Aluric,

as they both reached the center of the plains, you could feel the tension between them get heavier and heavier with each step,

until

“Amon I’m going to say this one more time, GIVE UP”, Aluric demanded,

“AL we both know that this has gone past the point of no return, so unless you say you’re standing down and clearing the way so that I can go have a talk with EA or the king lets just get this farce over with”, Amon retorted,

“suit yourself”, aluric said, turning and walking away, he let out a deep sigh, filled with disappointment, and then with a loud bang, a bolt of lightning struck down where aluric was, and then he was gone,

“ damn showoff”, amon said under his breath, as he made his way back to his side,

when he got back he could feel the morale of his soldiers dropping as the looked on at the share size of Dracht’s army,

with aluric

a bolt of lightning struck down in the largest of the towers that appeared, they were large standing at around fifty feet tall, the main body was triangular and covered in a hard material all around, but the top was square and open only covered by a wooden roof. Out of the bolt of lightning walked Aluric, an in front of him stood the four pillars, Below them in the body of the towers soldiers climbed up, setting up their positions as they grabbed bows and arrows,

“damn you sure do know how to make an entrance”, Pix stated, as though he seemed unimpressed by it,

“I learned from the 1st prince himself”, Aluric stated,

“ any ways lets get this started shall we, you all have your missions and you know what to do so get going” Aluric commanded,

“ALL SOLDIERS BEGIN YOUR ATTACK”, Aluric shouted,

And with that all four of the pillars departed from the tower,

back with Amon

Amon stood in front of his soldiers, with every passing moment their morale grew lower and lower,

“ehh heemmm”, amon loudly cleared his throat,

“worry not my fellow soldiers, for the enemy approaches” amon said, watching the Dracht army swiftly approaching,

“ DO NOT WAVER, DO NOT FALTER, FEAR IS DEATH, STEELE YOUR HEARTS AND YOUR FEARS, NOW FOLLOW ME AS WE FIGHT FOR A BRIGHT TOMORROW”, Amon shouted. Behind him a wave of shouting and cheering erupted, in the front Bard stood with the heavy armored troops, the ones who carried the massive shields, behind them the spear men who would attack as the shield men defended, in unison they all unsheathed their weapons letting loose the rage in their hearts as they all rushed forward towards battle.
