Fate of Duro: Liberate

It's been ten years since Issac left to serve the capital as a soldier.

When he left he only meant to serve five years, but when the time comes, Lyra still isn't a woman at the age of fourteen.

With Lyra still a girl and the prospect of being able to bring one of his brothers home a wife, Issac conscripts for five more years.

Little does he know the Lyra he left so many years ago would not be the woman he would return to.

The five stages of grief: denial, anger, bargaining, depression and acceptance.

Denial? Lyra was in denial until the very moment she watched him leave her.

Anger? Oh, she had that nailed. She was her mother's daughter after all.

Bargaining, well, she wasn't as successful with that as she was good at threatening. Good thing her Uncle Dorian refused to send Issac her letters cursing him to kingdom come.

Depression was a constant companion to her after Issac reconscripted.

Acceptance... well, I wouldn't say she had gotten there yet.
