Salt, Oil And Steel

People used to fight over these natural products. They tried to tie in one of the international currency with oil in your dimension which would increase the value of the currency and be used as an international trade unit.

Ships in this dimension however also fought for steel and salt, or example Lyson had raided smaller communities for their steel which was used in daily needs and construction of defense and security.

Huo was also interested in space and satellites and ballistic missiles. He wondered about the accuracy of a ballistic missile which was within a circle. In case of this civil war people were more afraid these ballistic missiles would be more accurate as they were nearer.

People always want to have peace with their neighbouring countries. Islands near the big countries have been threats and have always caused some damage. It is also true that people once seeing their neighbours overpowered with some weapon or alliance would retaliate the causing war.

The president of the once imperial Lyson was not kept in jail. He had tried his best to prevent Lyson to be captured. But he had failed in the end. Partly because of the soldiers and partly because of the excellent tactics by Git.

The president with his brother the priest still lived in the country that Silva united. This time he was moving through the fields on a lookout to check and investigate secretly the hidden potential of Lyson to regain its strength. He was travelling from the west to east. He not only was visiting the developed and bustling cities but also the areas that were remote and hard to reach.

A successful rebellion required that the citizens and soldiers of the waging side would require enough nutrition to eat.

He was uplifting the spirits of those who were hoping for the revival of Lyson. These included both its denizens of the city and those who lived in the villages.

Feeding upon the discontent of the war and its aftermath, the people thought about starting a rebellion. The rebellion would be for the independence of Lyson. The president who had excellent tenacity and ability at uniting people in a single purpose. The people thought that the independence of Lyson was not only linked to the economy but also the identity of the people. People wanted to be associated with the country their ancestors lived with.

Nothing would stop the president from his purpose. The people of Silva and even the council of ministers had considered killing him or at least keeping him in jail for his strong character was indeed threatening the sovereignty. They thought he would cause havoc which he ultimately did. But they did not keep him in jail earlier because they thought it would seriously hamper Silva and Lyson relations. After all they were one country now.

This the president walked freely in hot heat or in rain, in the flat plains or rocky mountains spreading his purpose and ideas. He was truly a determined man.

A determined man to create and fuel the emotions of the previous imperial empire.

This he walked in sunrise and sunset. He saw eagles and crows along the way. The heard the soft and beautiful melody of the birds as he shifted from one place to another. He saw the wild animals as well as the domestic ones. Since he didn't really have a lot of money to fund his objective he would go with eating spinach and insects cooked on the fire.

He was very rich before the war. But after it he had been stripped of many securities and assets. But that didn't matter to him. He learned as a child to exercise temperance. He knew comfort might be necessary but can be subordinated to a larger purpose. That purpose is more important. And having that vision is important. And he knew that his end was close and certain. Of course, he didn't know when he would die. But he knew he would die indeed.

And knowing this, he used his vision for the greater good. For those people who had been his teachers and parents, who had also been identified as primary citizens of Lyson. So was his younger brother the priest. He remained unmarried as a sacrifice to concentrate on his job. And at the journey to building memories before his legacy, before he died. 

And looking at the bright blue sky into the horizon, found that with his purpose came with unforgettable moments which were pleasing to not only the eyes but all senses. The smell, touch and taste, and sound of silence and birds were magnificent and outstanding. He really enjoyed his journey and wished he had a camera to share it with his loved ones. But he remembered his real ideology and principles and therefore went on and moved on with his journey on foot to travel the narrow and wide roads. To climb to the remote areas.

The hottest places of the country consisted of sand and dunes. People of that area had trained themselves to surviving with very little water just like different biological species living on earth. There were also many oases that were used to provide water to the people who required it in the area. The president was given a ride and rode on a camel. He also cut cactuses carefully so that he could extract the water from there.

The open distant fields and grasslands played an essential role in increasing hope as he knew if he could feed the people he would have the power. By he I meant the president felt it growing. Wild and domestic living things had their value. His expedition had a purpose. And he had intended to complete it.

Meanwhile the resources of salt, oil, and steel were proving valuable resources. But it was not just these stuff. Rare metals, silicon chips, and grenades might be important. And accumulation and securing these spots were not only important for communication.

It was important for survival itself.
