7. Crossing roads

Destruction. Pure destruction.

When Zaratas and Bartra arrived at Danafor, the scene before them shocked the two to the core. A kingdom, strong as Liones, had disappeared into smoke and destruction. It was almost as if volcanoes had erupted - but there were no volcanoes. Zaratas was sure, the were no volcanoes near Danafor.

"What is going on?!"

Afraid to step closer, in fear of the truth, Zaratas gritted his teeth.

Do something, do something! Come on!

At that moment, his eyes caught the most beautiful, pure white wings he ever saw. (Four of them, there were two pairs of them.)

"A goddess?" He whispered quietly.

A lone goddess, arms wrapped around a tiny bundle, walked out of the scene of destruction and chaos. Wounds littered around her body had slowly disappeared into soft light, the child in her arms sleeping so soundly.

Rushing to her side, the holy knight asked if she was alright (despite knowing as a druid that the injuries were all probably already healed at that point).

She simply shook her head, smiling sadly.

"I'm alright, thank you."

What was a goddess doing here, who was that child, what happened to Danafor- all of those thoughts had disappeared in the blink of an eye. Exchanging glances with the king, Bartra only nodded slowly.

Bringing the two back to Liones, little did Zaratas known that those two would become a very important part of everyone's lives. (And little had he known that everyone would strive to protect them at the bottom of their hearts.)

Looking back at the king, he could only assume that Bartra thought the same thing.

Blood dripping from his cold, dead body, he hoped the best for what was left behind.


As for this one, I feel like YoSay&B→A fits well, so please read the fiction with a serious expression as you listen to the first half of YoSay&B→A!
