P.O.V. Sofía

As if from under the Earth the full armies of both sides joined the current soldiers for the Collision.

The normal soldiers would fight each other as a diversion. In that time the clock would have begun the countdown and the Leader of the Artemisian's and the Leader of the Nikkians would race to the Cave of Etatauomega. Whoever would reacher their first would win and their people would rule over the land. The other one would have to face defeat and accept their fate without rebellion. The Chosen One, being me, would help guide the Leader they have sworn loyalty to, to the Cave.

I flew with the current of the winds, avoiding the incoming fighter jets. From time to time I would swoop down and look through the trees that Master Xenon was following me. At last, when the cave came into view, I dived down and flew a few feet over the ground leading toward the cave.

Before long Master Xenon reached it and entered inside. Meanwhile, I landed and turned back into a human. After retrieving the Sword of Zeus he came out.

"Armisia - fear no longer. Your rightful ruler returns today!" With that he plunged the sword into the earth.

A giant rumble and surge of light flashed across Armisia. In the woods, I saw the Nikkian who had captured me, staring at us in defeat. Nevertheless, he faced his defeat dutifully. He walked up to Master Xenon, and bowing his head, extended his arms in front of him. The symbol of accepting defeat and consequences. Jumping up into the air, I forced myself to switch to falcon embodiment. Flying over the land, I tried to locate Diega, as well as look at the occurrences through the land. Everywhere, the Nikkians accepted their defeat with honor and allowed themselves to be taken into the hands of the winning Artemisian's.

Flying back, I saw the small group that came to rescue me standing with Master Xenon. I also saw Diega there. However, despite Artemisian victory, she didn't seem happy.
