Nothing was left at it's birth. The end of the world had finally come and it was only the beginning. The old world was gone and in it's place came the sins of the great war, the war that had ended it all. Out of the thick dark ashes came a new world, one that can even date back to the old days. The days when men fought tooth and nail to conquer what they thought was theirs. In Caesar's legion, You killed to live and conquered to expand everything you fought so hard to have. It was the only true way of life in this world.
The battle had taken place all day, the sky shined dark and the dessert air felt cold. Out of the blood and dirt she came running. Her face covered in blood and her dark red hair filled with dirt. She ran fast up the hill, feeling her lungs burn like fire and the weight of her own heavy legs give in. Her leader needed to know of his victory. She trampled through the piles of dead bodies that covered almost every inch of the hill. With her every move, the bloody corpses met her boots and the sound bones crushing met her ears. She finally made it all the way up the hill, to his tent. Still running, she opens the flap of his tent and she falls before him, landing right in front of his throne. She looks up at him and her light green eyes meet his dark brown eyes. She's dehydrated and wounded, but is victorious.
"Great Caesar, You are victorious. The Hoover Dam is ours."
This is all she knows and all she'll ever know. When she thinks back, all she can remember is waking up in some man's house half alive. He tell's her that he is a doctor and that she was shot in the back of the head, He tells her she is lucky to be alive. She doesn't know what to believe, all she knows is that now her life is with the legion and she will kill, conquer and fight.
"That is great news to hear, courier. Now go and find the survivors, kill the weak ones and take the strong ones as slaves."
She slowly rises to her feet and her eyes met his once again. She gives him a small nod of her head. Her lips open and she whispers a goodbye.
