Why do we Fight? - Volume I - For Honor

Chapter 26: Dangers of Loyalty

Here is the continuation of the final events. Sheathe your blades, for we shall be embarking on a journey for a long time, and draw them when we need to protect and pave the way to peace.

Har! Jokes on my classmates, because we actually reached 6k reads on this fanfic before the end of our school year here! Many thanks to everyone of you, people! We showed them! ✊

Here is the disclaimers, for you will need them in your perilous journey in Wattpad:

I do not, in any way, own For Honor or the names involved in the story. If I did, I would've added characters from other games of Ubisoft like Ezio or Altair :v

- A day after the Siege of Svengard, General POV... -

Yana: "Why can't you just return to your legion so we can get horses for ourselves?"

(Argen): "It's not that easy, Yana. Returning back to a faction after desertion is something not accepted, especially when it comes to the Blackstones. Besides, I have to get away from them, at least for now."

The Warden and the girl from the Myre are walking alongside each other on a bright snowy day. They are discussing of the possible means on how will they be able to get Yana back to her home for who knows how long. (Argen) them decided to change the topic.

(Argen): "Let's talk about you; what's with your clothes? You don't look like a Samurai to me at all." He asks her.

Yana: "..." She stays silent. "... Just promise me that you won't tell anyone of this?" She says to him.

(Argen): "Well, I remained in the Blackstone Legion having doubts for so long until just yesterday." He says, implying that he is capable of keeping secrets until they needed to be revealed.

With a sigh, she relents.

Yana: "... I am a 'Shinobi', at least one in training. That's all I am telling you."

(Argen): "Some kind of secret order perhaps?"

Yana: "You could say that..."

(Argen), contented of the short answer hums in agreement. Though he did hear her mutter something in her native language but he paid it no mind.

They then resumed their silent walk as the snow droplets become illuminated by the faint rays of the sun, falling to the ground like brilliant crystals of untold value.

???: ".....rd......Co..m....r..." They both heard a faint shouting from behind them followed rumbling of horses.

Upon closer inspection, (Argen) recognises them as Blackstone Knights, three of them. They must've hunted them down. Alarmed, he and Yana draw out their weapons for combat, readying themselves to take down the Knights and take the horses for their own as they grew closer.

???: "Wait, sheathe your weapons, my friends! We are not your enemies!" The Knight in the lead of the three Blackstones says to them in a more audible voice, but also recognisable.

Yana: "How do we know that you are not here to take us back?" She spits to the lead Knight.

(Argen): "Stand down, Yana." The Warden says to her and walks up to the lead Knight, who is just meters away from them. "Hold on... Hirtzel?" He asks the Knight with a familiar voice.
