**Chapter 3: The War Begins**
Three weeks later, the war began. Nyssa stood on the walls of a border city, looking out over the vast fields where the first battle would take place. She was dressed in a fine silk gown, with her fire-red hair tucked up under a headdress.
The Empire's forces were ready, their weapons shining in the morning light. Nyssa felt a mix of excitement and nervousness, but she knew that this battle was crucial. One wrong move, and the entire campaign could be derailed.
With a deep breath, Nyssa gave the order for the Empire's soldiers to begin their advance. She watched as the troops marched forward, their weapons glinting in the sun.
Nyssa felt her heart beating in her chest, but kept a neutral expression on her face. The next few hours would be crucial, but she had faith in her army and their strategies. They could not fail her.
The battle went surprisingly smoothly. The enemy forces were weaker than expected, and the Empire's troops quickly conquered their city.
