The Way of the Future: Age of Machines(Completed)

Princess of Atira

On the harsh dessert of Hanhua, two armies were enganged in close-quarters combat. The sounds of spears and swords clanking and men screaming as they were stabbed and sliced filled the desert. The Army of the Kingdom of Herldorin, composed of 100,000 foot soldiers crossed the borders of the Kingdom of Atira, and sparked another war between the two rival countries.

The Kingdom of Atira had only 80,000 foot soldiers to defend itself, they were being beaten back and reduced to 5,000. Their men fell in droves, their King could see it. As he stared from the safety of a sand dune a kilometer away from the fighting, he watched as his army was on the verge of being defeated. Standing beside him was an old man whom the King trusts as an advisor. The Grand Mage of Atira, Hazelborn.

"My King, won't it be wise if i intervene?"

The King smiled.

"No, our men are fighting valiantly on the sands, not until the last man falls, you won't do anything"

But the Grand Mage wasn't content.

"But your majesty, your daughter is there in the fighting! What would happen of the crown princess was to die in the hands of the enemy? Even worse, captured!"

The King maintained his smile and composure and looked at the old man.

"Hazelborn, you didn't quite understand me, I said, when the last MAN was to fall, not the last soldier"

Hearing this, the Grand Mage was relieved, he did not question further and proceeded to spectate the battle through this ball of magic.

The battle continued in rage, in the midst of it all, a fierce dual was about to commence.

The Princess of Atira, wearing her signature golden-plated armour and wielding her father's sword, was about to duel with the crown prince of of the Kingdom of Herldorion, crown prince Leonardo IV.

They faced against each other as the battle raged around them, the prince was handsome, golden hair and a beautiful face. The Princess was also beautiful, on would see them being a nice couple together, but they had other things in mind.

"Your sword carries the blood of my brothers"

The Princess knew what the prince had done prior to the war.

"Oh ho, so you know dear princess?"

"I am no fool to see through your lies, Leonardo!"

Before she was crown princess, there were two princes, her older brothers who she loved dearly. A few weeks before, the princes visited Herldorion to negotiate peace concerning the border conflicts between the two nations, a messenger came to the palace and told the King and the princess, that the brothers were killed by the crown prince.

"Alright, I'm giving you a chance, Princess, your beauty is quite unrivaled among the women in the land, become my concubine and I'll spare you and your father"

The Princess frowned.

"I will never, be the wife, of a disgusting person, such as yourself"

The Prince smiled.

"So be it then"

The crown prince charged atnthe princes with incredible speed, the princess was surprised and barely blocked the prince's sword as he swung it to decapitate her. The two exchanged swings and punches, the princess was having trouble.
