Yui looked around the battlefield,chunks of bloodied flesh and defeated soldiers wearing masks of dread sorrounding him, the outcome just as he expected. They knew from the moment the warrior country declared a war against them that they were going to be slaughtered , because their mostly peaceful land known for it's healers ,knowledge of medicinal herbs, literature and it's people gifted with a profound skill in music and arts, war was not only foreign but their pure untainted hands that had yet to yeild an instrument of death, for the strongest among them were probably the malnourished farmers and untrained guards. 

The evil waging war against them had done so because they knew that they didn't stand a chance. It was a good thing that they, anticipating such an outcome, had sent the women and children elsewhere,where they could live as respectable healers should they loose their land .Yui's mother was one of said women and Yui could only hope that she'd find her peace. 

Now facing the aftermath seemed worse than being killed, much much more worse. It was bad enough that all of them were rounded up like cattle their forelimbs bound ,but adding insult to the injury was the fact that their enemies ,those bloodthirsty animals devoid of humanity had suffered little or no loss despite the fact that Yui's motherland had put up as much resistance as they could and now that he was facing their mocking sneers and being dragged by their enemies to some unknown place as prisoners of war ,Yui felt helpless ,as helpless as a tiny baby bird being swatted by a mighty big cat,.A bird that couldn't even fly away from the torment for it's wings had been clipped.
