At least I'm Alive

Asphodel war

Everyone had started gearing up.

Abela wore a white blouse with long sleeves, that was quite loose, and she wore black tights with long dark boots below her knees.

She grabbed a sword, rushing out, as everyone did aswell.

Ajax transformed into his eagle form.

Aegeus transformed into a humongous bear, Odeda transformed into an average sized, yet still big. And Vincent also transformed into a big bear, just half the size of Aegeus.

As the geared knights ride their horses, Ryuu soon transformed into his dragon form, that was twice as huge as Ajax.

Abela hopped on Ajax's back, being assisted by Ajax's wing.

So did Robin on Ryuu. And the rest on their spirits.

Ajax started flying, alongside with Ryuu.

Everyone headed forward in the Archduke's lead.

As they go towards an empty land, no trees, or any source of living things.

As fire from afar, and tons of black geared men approach them.

Abela held tight on Ajax's back, as the thought of war will finally begin.

She never thought that this would be her fate..

The two sides got near eachother.

"Attack!" The Archduke shouts as they run towards the other side.

The Ethros empire approaches them faster than before, and they eventually meet.

Everyone fought with their swords.

Horses were falling to the ground.

Sounds of thuds, and screams filled the area.

Abela went down, and fought.

Strangely, they felt like something was wrong.

Like, this isn't right.

They fought, and fought.

But there was so sign of victory nor defeat.

As men were on the ground, and most of the people in Nox Singuis were not really wounded.

Keith went down Aegeus and approached Abela who sighed and stretched.

"The war they were talking about wasn't a rushed war. They are sending off troops." Keith explained.

As everyone returned to their camp.

...

Days went on, they battled several knights for weeks.

It has almost been a month. Some of the Nox Singuis' knights got severely injured, like Wyatt.

Wyatt's arm was crushed, as the Ethros wish's knights strangely got stronger every time they fought.

It was in the afternoon, there was no sign of any troops.

Wyatt was in medical care, he was in much pain. Boman, stayed with him.

The Archduke was troubled as he lost some of his good knights.

He couldn't get into their heads.

Abela, Keith, Kai, Chamberlain, Liam, and Robin stayed in the main tent where they planned their strategies.

They were all confused, what exactly was their plan?

Abela suddenly thought of something.

"Hey...what if.." Abela said, catching everyone's attentions
