Northern Conflicts

A New Nation

Beatré and Amethyst went to a secure location to talk strategy. "We have an issue Áxios our people are not soldiers in fact they are incapable of acting on rage."
"Beatré so far we can gather people from the North, the West possibly the East and if we play our cards right we will have places in Anzula."
"So which one of us is going to break the news to our people?" Bèatre really didn't want to be the one to do it so Amethyst had to. "It is important that we tell them what we know now.For now let us plan." Amethyst still felt like she should know more but they still needed to prepare for what was happening.

Amethyst made her way to the place she would make the announcement "People of our lands, we have been threatened by our own blood, the queen of the east has a king who is the king of the land of war and they plan to wage war against us, they plan on taking our safe haven." Panic. That's all that was happening, people were shouting things like 'we aren't fighters' , 'we haven't had the erge to fight since Subaru Josei found this land' 'we're doomed' then Amethyst thought 'wait a minute, the erge to fight.' "Settle down! We will work this out as one, people who have relatives in the east I erge you to move them and I assure you that plans are being made to prepare us for this. As of this day we are no longer the Thritia and Anzula. TODAY WE ARE ONE LAND THAT WILL PUT AN END TO MICRALANZA'S REIGN OF TERROR!!" There was a little cheering nothing to get excited over really but Amethyst could not dwell on that because she had quite a few things to discuss with Bèatre.

"Áxios do you understand that we are about to part take in a war with people who are not skilled in war?"

"Bèatre when are you going to learn to trust me? I think I may know why the land of peace has peace in their hearts."

"Well, do spill the details."

"You see sister it all started with a machine. A machine that our dear Wéverly Ferox is oh too familiar with, for she claims mother used it on her."

"Áxios when I said spill I meant you should say everything that is important and you should get to the point as soon as it is possible."

"I have never followed your orders do you expect me to do so now? What I mean is if the machine was used to transfer a strong emotion like love it is a possibility that it can be used to take away emotions that lead to the instinct of fight."

"There by leading to the flight instinct being set in as a default and that is what made us hide but why would we turn ourselves into cowards?"
Bèatre had a point though, why would someone cause themselves such pain.
"Bèatre what if we didn't but something else did."

It was a far fetched idea but maybe becoming cowards was just a side effect but they could not be sure until they checked for records.
"Sadly we are not only out skilled we do not have...." Bèatre yelled out the word Eureka "What is eureka and what does it have to do with our current dilemma?" She was looking at one of the old scrolls that a maid had recently found in a cellar.
"Eureka was the name of the program. It says here 'Eureka - the discovery of good will' started centuries ago. In fact it's launch aligns perfectly with the fall of Janigtollo. "

"I feel as though you are trying to present me with a theory of case sister. Just tell me where to find the machine."

"Áxios you lack patience. As you know, inventors across lands developed their own language ages ago so it is no suprise that the scrolls are not only in our tounge but theirs as well."

"So does that mean we will have our best people working on it?" Amethyst inquired

Beatré carefully worded her response."We will have our oldest and wisest inventors looking over the scrolls as we speak sister."

"Bronon is already on his way, maybe you can ask for his assistance for I know neither of us are comfortable with how you referred to the inventors."

"I am relieved that a trusted inventor and fresh mind will be on the task but what will you be doing?"

"Dear sister, I may not have been born to war but I was grown in it. So while you do that I will be creating weapons that will show no mercy until it's wielder begs it to."

Bèatre and Amethyst parted ways after Bronon arrived. Amethyst went straight to all the people she knew that had a natural will to fight. "Well, well if it isn't my old friends Ćib Riat and Nab Press. How long has it been?" Nab Press' answer was no suprise "Considering we only meet like this when preparing for a fight I think it is safe to say not long enough." Amethyst couldn't help but smile at her inability to sugar coat things it was truly a gift. "She means nothing by her rudeness so let us carry on then." Ćib Riat was not annoyed or anything but she was just as ready as the other women.

"Who exactly are we waiting on?"
Nab Press may have spoken too soon but her question only made their entrance stand out more. In came the Amethyst's guard, Commander Silas, Commander Eleanor, Milan and Saburau Josei.
"While Beatré works with the inventors I am starting our preparations."
All seven guests looked at Amethyst with newfound determination
"As of fifteen hours and thirty-one minutes ago the current ruler of Micralanza and his wife Wèverly Ferox queen of Eastern Anzula snuck into Trithia with the intention of causing harm to its people. Wèverly broke into the study and took several unidentified documents of high confidentiality. As of one hour and thirty-one minutes ago a list of twenty individuals was compiled and you are seven chosen for specific tasks."

Ćib Riat narrowed her eyes "Why is Bronon not seated at this table?"
Amethyst's guard guessed an answer " Some members of the list are already carrying out their tasks aren't they?"
Saburau Josei was not too keen about working with children "So am I to assume the only adults on this list are myself , that old lady and..."
Amethyst could tell that if she let the questions continue problems would arise "That old lady has a name and I would swallow words that may come across as insults if I were you. Saburau Josei you found this land am I correct?"
She nodded "Then you should know every vulnerable inch of our borders am I correct."
Saburau Josei nodded again "Good you will work with Commander Eleanor to reinforce our borders I don't want anymore surprise guests. Eleanor it is as I said before I need soldiers on call."

Silas' question slipped out before he could stop it "If you only knew about the war a few hours ago how is it that you asked about the soldiers beforehand?"
A few people looked at her suspiciously "I can not be the only one at this table who feels the storm approaching. Commander Eleanor and Saburau Josei you are clear to start your task now."
The two left the room discussing the next plan of action when Amethyst addressed Milan and Commander Silas "You two are pillars of the society in Phantasma and I need willing fighters. can you provide such a thing?"
They nodded and left as they were given the go ahead to proceed. Amethyst waited until only the four of them were left in the room "As for the three of you." She smiled with mischief dancing in her eyes
