Chapter One
Kamakazia: [Kaa-muh-kaa-zee-uh] Noriccima: [No-reese-ee-muh]
The sound of blood dripping from the sword broke the eerie silence .Many men had been killed. The battlefield was a giant graveyard. Corpses were pushed to the side as the king arose from the ground. His armor was showing signs of wear, his helmet almost severed. The last survivors were digging, in spite of the hard ground. Survivors were scarce along the cold, hard ground.
The few soldiers lit a pyre as the others gathered weapons from the corpses. Finally the king spoke.
"We better get some food, because we'll be here a while. Home is gone, for now. It will be a two-day march as we leave south tomorrow. We must make haste, and get to our beloved city soon."
Three Days later. The army has been in the city of Kamakazia for one day. The city's defenses have weakened dramatically.
"Noriccima?" the king questioned.
"Yes, my king Kamakazia?" she answered.
"You know how we have been free for so long"
"Yes?"
"I fear that Fornola-"
"King, Fornola?" she interrupted.
"Yes, the king" he replied. "Now as I was saying, King Fornola is planning to strike. He ambushed us to weaken our defenses and buy time. What I mean is that if we don't act soon, we will never survive the relentless assaults!"
"But the people won't go to war!"
"I know. That is the problem"
