I love the way your eyes lit up
When someone says
"It could be dangerous"
Jungkook clenched the curtain hanging in the balcony while he looked at the curtailing figure of Yn and Jimin skipping on their respective horses. He felt captivated and fastened in this palace. He was scared too, it was her first real battle, she needed support.
He wanted to be there for her, to make sure that she is safe, to encourage her but her obsitancy had left him with no choice. He ordered one of his subordinates to keep informing him about the situations at the battlefield.
Meanwhile, Yn and Jimin reached the military base and strolled near it observing the preparations. Sunrise was about to begin, which meant the beginning of a bloodshed.
The soldiers and all the valorous ministers were getting ready, some were talking about strategies, some were sharpening their weapons, some practicing and others warming up. When they noticed the greatest authority, their eyes immediately began searching for their General in chief.
They searched and searched, but he wasn't anywhere.
"They are definitely looking for him" Jimin taunted while guiding his horse.
Yn ignored him and went inside the tent that was set up in the middle of the base. She took out the flute, she always had kept with herself for particularly a day which kept her heart and mind wavering.Playing it had always calmed her down, and to encourage warriors she needed a calm state of mind and heart. As a descendant of a warrior clan, she had to be a leader for the mass public and she was preparing herself for it.
She closed her eyes, took a deep breath and placed the flute near her lips. Blowing out air into the hollow pipe, her fingers moved swiftly on the small gaps creating a mesmerizing sound. The serene melody wasn't limited to the main tent, as it flowed out it calmed the other panicking soldiers as well.
She got lost into the euphonious sound as her fingers moved at a faster pace on their own.
Yn took a deep breath after reaching the high note on the musical instruments and put it down on the table. She fastened the sword holder on the left side of the belt on her waist and grabbed the axe in her right hand.
She came out of the tent and looked at the already inclined soldiers ready to attack. Yn moved to the front of the pack and took out her sword holding it up in the air.
"Let us all bow down and pay our respects to Lord Hwa-ji, to give us strength and courage to fight these Ishiokas. Hail Alsace!"
Her voice thundered and everyone took out their sword and screamed loudly "Hail Alsace"The sun started peeping from behind the mountains and that's when the conch shells blew from both the sides indicating the start of the war.
She climbed on Marquis and strolled in the front. As she got in the middle of the battlefield, there was her enemy. The head of the Ishioka clan, Raku Ishioka.
She despised him for his frivolous thinking and she was adamant on proving him the power women hold.
