The Kingdom Lokromli

Lokromli; Eastwest Kingdom-3:33pm

Screams and guns fired out from beyond the kingdom. Watching from afar was the king Zenit and queen Florais, staring at the fire and smoke rising from beyond the mountains.

"How savage." Florais sneered, scrunching her face in distaste as she held onto her husband's arm. The large emerald green ball gown she wore mixed well with her pale skin and fit with her bun up-do hairstyle, completed with a full face of makeup and her large golden crown.

"I agree my dear." Zenit nodded, placing his hand on her's in care. His pale plumper frame fit against the light green suit he wore, clipped with a shoulder cape and black sleek dress shoes, completed with his large ruby red crown distracting his face of a stubble beard.

Florais fidgeted with the ring on her finger in thought, clearly seeing war happening from miles away was sending shivers down her spine. She's heard of war, she's never seen it however.

"Your majesties!" Yelled a guard, his heavy breathing being easily noticeable. Zenit and Florais turned to the guard "What is it?" Asked Zenit, clearly on high alert at the sudden call of attention, watching as the guard stumbled closer to them trying to catch their breath "T-The northwest kingdom! They are falling! They're requesting we send our men, what do we do!" They stuttered through short breaths.

Zenit's eyes widened "Are you mad? No! We only supplied them with weapons, they're on their own now." He barked, the look of fear in his eyes was clear that he had no intention of stepping in during the raging war. The guard flinched and nodded, stumbling back outside the kingdom to replay the message.

Florais covered her mouth "Wasn't their leader, Amatheon, supposed to prevent this?" She asked, looking at her husband in question. Zenit shook his head "No, Lilith, Serendipity's child was supposed to. She was sacrificed to the mountains to keep the monsters at bay, not prevent war. Amatheon brought this upon himself." He explained, the mention of Amatheons name made him sick, it's as if his name was cursed.

The Fallen Kingdom Of Atazar

Atazar; Northwest Fallen Kingdom

Eaghton Castle; Outside ?:????

Buildings and streets were now nothing but debris.

The once lively kingdom now brought to ruins as screams and pleas of mercy echoed through the flames and smoke. People scrambled around for protection as Soldiers stood their ground and defended those who could not defend themselves.

"Go! Go! Go!" Yelled soldiers, running towards the opposing side with various weapons such as spears,guns,crossbows, even axes. The bloodshed was unbearable, bloodstains on the street as flies and other insects made their homes in the many decomposing bodies. The rotting smell of flesh and marrow covered by the fallen debris sickened those whoever got close enough to get a whiff of it.
