The Remire Calamity

Chapter 21: A Reunion

Salutations fellow bokoblins. I apologize if you find the last few chapters a little cliche. I understand, but they needed to be in there for plot purposes. 

Lucius POV

I sit there sleeping, with darkness as all I can see. I hear distant screaming, burning fire, crying children. Their voices sound familiar, but I am unable to recognize them. Soon a scene fills my vision. Those distant sounds now are close. I can see around me but can't interact with anything. The buildings seem familiar. I soon recognize them. Senneto, my home town. I think this is a flash from my past, but no. I spot people that I knew from my childhood, now much older. This must be recent as they look closer to my age. I see Alliance warriors slaying innocent people. They approach my parents, as they are running away. The vision fades to darkness. The screams deafen. My eyes open to a medical room. I sit up and look around. Lisomah is sleeping on a bed. A door stands close to me, closed. medical supplies fill parts of the room. I see Lisomah shift in her bed and open her eyes.

Lisomah: "Ugh. What happened? Where are we?"

Lucius: "I believe this is the infirmary. All I remember is leaving a burning building and collapsing."

Lisomah: "I remember just decapitating the general in charge of the attack.  I think we both passed out."

Lucius: "I think so. But what from?"

A nurse walks in. 

Nurse: "Oh, you two are finally awake. You two seem to be doing well."

Lisomah: "Thanks. How long have we been in here?"

Nurse: "About 2 days."

Lucius: "What. What about the battle?"

Sabjorn walks in.

Sabjorn: "Oh sorry to interrupt. Just came to see how you two are doing."

Lucius: "What about the battle? what happened?"

Sabjorn: "After Lisomah defeated the general, she collapsed. You collapsed due to smoke inhalation from the fire. According to your brother, you were rescuing the civilians who were trapped."

Lucius: "Did they make it out ok?"

Nurse: "Yes they were fine. They only suffered minor burns."

Lucius: "*sigh* I'm glad they made it out ok."

Lisomah: "What did I collapse from?"

Sabjorn: "Over-exertion of your powers. During the confrontation between Jargul, your emotions overly filled your blade. It could not handle that power at the time and caused you to get knocked out."

Lisomah: "So I shouldn't use that power?"

Sabjorn: "Not exactly. At least not how you used it. While Goren gave you all of his knowledge on how to use Dragonslayer, you did not know how to control it. Though I am sure you are fully capable of doing so. I will help you train on that later but for now, we must meet up with the Emperor in the throne room."

Lucius: "Why is that?"

Sabjorn: "Him, the general and commanders will be putting together a plan for our invasion of Alliance territory."

Lisomah: "So it is almost time?"

Sabjorn: "Yes it is. Go change your clothing and head to the throne room. 

Lucius: "Ok."

We get up from the beds and leave the infirmary. We head back to our room to get changed and make our way to the throne room. We walk in and meet up with the rest.
