Act IV

Trail of Tear

The group departs from the shop buying the necessary items they may need on the adventure and moving toward their next location. A bronze spear hangs behind the young princes as he leads the way of this small army and taking the attention of Joan from the very beginning. After all, the others had bought some normal purchase like everyone having a single vulnerary for an emergency, and Joan with Dorinda buying a bronze spear since they can wield one. The sudden purchase of the spear from Ion did pique his curiosity considering he did watch him using only sword to fight the monsters in his village and he has to know more.

"Hey Ion, why did you buy that spear?" Joan ask.

Ion turns to see the curios Joan asking an odd question from him and just realized that he never did explain what he can use. A chuckle flies from his lips as he understood the question and tries to enlighten him with his concern.

"That question is a simple one, Joan. You saw me use Flash Edge during the village attack but I can also use spear beside sword." Ion reply.

"Also it can provide an alternative option when fighting sword user and making a small opportunity during combat. I am sure everyone knows this common basic rule and an important rule to keep your life safe." Twilight adds.

"So..." Dorinda spoke, "Basically, Ion is a cavalier but without the horse to move in further and get him out from a sticking situation." Dorinda remark.

"Wow, I never imagine big brother equaling a cavalier without a horse." Casca gasp, "but wouldn't that put him in a disadvantage in battle?" Casca wonder.

Joan's question began to stir a conversation between the group regarding rules, advantage, and weaponry concerning the battlefield. In the moment, Joan did understand that Ion can use both sword and spear just like Dorinda but Ion need to explain the details so everyone, whether they know or not, can understand the whole concept of warfare.

"Not necessary Casca, it is true that I lack a horse to move long distance as Dorinda does and it is also true that I can't get away from most people, especially range weapons. Nevertheless, I can traverse all terrain without affecting my distance while Dorinda will have lots of problem moving around thick trees, sand, and other factors affecting the terrain." Ion explains.

Casca took noted on his big brother explanation while shifting her gaze toward her retainer which he agrees completely and aware of her weakness, maybe even experience such disadvantage before. The group resumed the current agenda to address the common rules while making some progress into the Serena Forest and could see the forest not so far right now.

"Since we are in this topic, why don't we talk about the moral of the weapon triangle. Think of it as a warm-up, to be mentally prepared for the incoming battle ahead of us." Ion suggest

"Sound likes a plan, I do know that spear-user like me, Dorinda and I guess..." Joan pause, "Ion can use the length of the spear to gain some distance over sword-user to minimize power and hit overall. Still...Axe can easily put us down since they have raw power and can cut through the large handle which put us closer." Joan describes.

"Yeah, I did learn that axe is powerful enough but they can hardly hit anything also they lose to a sword which is more fast and accurate," Casca said.

"Correct milady, the sword is quite balanced so they can handle an ax but they do lack distance to put a fair fight between lances." Dorinda agrees.

"And then there me, a dragon, we don't have a weakness to any weapon type but there is a sword called "Wyrmslayer" that can hurt our kind badly." Twilight sigh.

Everyone start to discuss their own reply about the weapon and listening to each other to use this knowledge during battle. Before they could continue with this subject, Ion notices a small fluttering thing approaching them and bumming into his face which causes him to halt in place.

"Ah! Hey, watch where you going you!.."

Ion's eyes fluster to see a small, feminine voice speak and look toward the thing that bum into his face to see a small pixie. The small girl has green long hair with a white dress and her expression quickly changes from anger to worry in a sec.

"Hey! Isn't that pixie? I never saw one before..." Casca mention.

"Well, they are rare after all and it is uncommon to stumble upon one like this too." Twilight mutters.

Ion could sense the small pixie's worry as her body shifts from side to side and pointing toward the side of Serena Forest. A hint of a small town can be seen from their view while also a trail of smoke coming from that town which already put him on edge as to what is causing that smoke to arise.

"You guys need to help me! Some bandits are raiding the town of food, resource, and money!" The pixie nervously explains, with a hint of fear.

With this Intel is enough to make Ion quickly take a step forward toward their direction while Twilight already knew of the choice and her hand pat on his shoulder to stop him. His burning gaze turns to his retainer holding him back on his choice and only making slightly angry for still being here rather than stopping the bad guys hurting his people.

"Twilight..." Ion mutter.

"I know, but at least try to think of your safety for once and let's talk a bit. You do need to consider our side first and as your retainer, how much you mean to us." Twilight explain, calmly.

Ion's eyes turn to the other as Casca is a bit nervous about entering the battlefield unprepared and also seeing her brother angry or looking like it. Dorinda holding Casca to ease her worry while Joan looks at Ion trying to agree with Twilight and trying to adjust to this new lifestyle of being Ion's retainer. The young prince sighs deeply rubbing his eyes trying to calm his eagerness and nod to Twilight's word to considering their size before jumping by his lonesome like he always does.

"Thanks, Ion; now let's move into the bigger problem in hand." Twilight spoke.

Twilight turn her attention to the worrying pixie since she always so keen on fetching some info before a battle and they need every piece of information to put them above the bandits.

"Mind telling us more about those bandits you spoke of? Anything information would do like their weapon and their leader if possible." Twilight question.

"Oh, umm..." The pixie deeply thinks, "All of them wield an axe and there this big mean guy wearing a bandana on top of his head that make the call there." She replies.

Twilight smile at her cooperation since this mean Ion and Dorinda will be very useful in this fight. Ion focus on this new report think of a strategy to make sure everyone can be safe and at the same time be victorious.

"Now I understand the situation, All right everyone our new goal will be to save that town from a bandit's raid and take down their leader." Ion command.

"Of course! It is time to put my experience to the test and repay the same kindness that you have shown me." Joan spoke, happily.

"If that's an order, then I will happily follow like any other order and protect Casca at all cost to bring happiness to Alteria." Dorinda said, confidently.

"Well, If Dorinda is going then I will have to be brave and do my best on this battle too, big brother," Casca spoke, slightly shaken.

Their voices of agreement gave Ion more courage on stopping those bad guys and turning to Twilight to hear her opinion on the matter before they dash to save the town. The sight of Twilight AND the pixie smile happily knowing that the plan will unfold by Twilight's plan. With their reaction on sight, Ion quickly charges ahead follow by his army roaring for action and reaching the town unlike his previous encounter with the Harbinger. The small army presence didn't go unnoticed to the bandits and Ion himself watches their boss standing proudly in the middle of town. His hand choking a poor child and about to end his life before they interrupt with his usual fun.

"Hold you fiend; your miserable life will end here and now." Ion snarl.

His calm demeanor has left him seeing an unmoving body of a man close to the bandit and presumably, the young boy's dad that gave his life to protect him. This enough has cause Ion to be angry at this man wearing a red bandana like the pixie spoke of and drawing his Flash Edge out with a blazing gaze. A confident and evilly laugh erupt from the boss while his goons began to appear into the field from the household surrounding them. Six bandits wielding axe appear left and right sequentially to make a total of seven people they need to deal with.

"You speak bold words, boy. Sadly, words are nothing to someone that is going to die." The man reply, amuse. "I am Scar; remember the name that takes your life away from you." Scar smirk.

Ion observes the bandits as the pixie told the truth of them having only axes on their disposal which make some people work best here. Casca starts to be worry from the men's foul aura which Dorinda stand in front of her as a shield which lives up to her name and Joan taking his bronze spear out to prepare for the battle. The dragon retainer approaches the young prince as she scans the enemy and heeds for Ion's advice on the situation.

"So, what's the plan Ion?" Twilight wonders.

"You and Joan will be pair up to battle any unwanted visit from either side approaching me or Dorinda. Dorinda will be helping Casca on the right side while I handle the boss." Ion proclaim.

Twilight's eyes narrow at Ion being by himself who he is aware of but the situation calls for such tactics and didn't waste a second since he leaps into action moving into his left side. The bandits turn their attention to the running princess approaching the left side and making the right side move until an unexpected arrow hit one of the guys preventing them from moving.

"S-Sorry!" Casca apologize.

Their smirk quickly turns into gritting teeth from the youngest princesses attacking and in range for an attack with the help of Dorinda dropping her there. Still, riding on a horse while shooting is a new experience for Dorinda but she hardly misses any shoot and causing the other side to be infuriating for their pitiful first shoot.

"Don't take your eyes from your opponent!"

Ion didn't hesitate to swing his heavy blade to hit one of the men on their chest and making him bleed from his lack of awareness. The bandit grunt from the large cut on his chest as his hand reach for the cut and forcing him due to instincts which cause Ion to quickly follow up. His massive blade swings down to end his life with two attacks and causing the men to drop into the floor unmoving, unshaking. The soft thud made the bandit stop to look at one of the men fall by Ion's sword and making Scar angry by how easily Ion manages to take one down.

"You bastard, I will personally cut down now!" Scar growl.

"You feel that? That's what I feel too, to see my people be killed by your hands and many others who try. Now, you will experience what I feel and then some." Ion comment.

None aren't faltered by the death of a single life with the exception of Casca who looks scared and sad for his death. Her hands shake slightly, the confidant she force to build up is gone and that determination to kill isn't going to appear here as she imagines. The realization of killing only made it worse by her sudden sharp breathing and her legs soon shaking unable to listen.

"Milady!"

The shouting voice abruptly stops her fear and nervous which cause her to raise her head to see Dorinda looking at her. Her hand stretches out reaching for the scare little child she tries to hide this weakness from her big brother and her retainer understands this best.

"Come on Casca, get up here and let me take care of the bandit for you. That's what I sign up for and I will keep your burden upon my shoulders." Dorinda spoke, softly.

Casca smiles softly as she reaches upon her aid to ride her horse behind her and attempt to help them despite his own morals. Scar ignores the action of Ion's group and solely focus on Ion being the main problem while his men discard the others. Twilight wanted to follow up to Ion but the two bandits block her path and making her angry from Ion's choice and them blocking her. Her hand pull out her dragonstone from her pocket to transform her into dragon form and roaring with her might.

"What is Ion up to, Twilight?" Joan asks.

"I don't know, but we shouldn't lose focus on beating these guys first." Twilight spoke.

Twilight's transformation made the bandits nervous at the presence of a powerful divide dragon and making the injury one flee from the scene causing them to deal with four of them now. The bandits shook of the presence as they rush toward the dragon making the first move which they did and swinging their axe into her thick scale. The bandit's face became horrify at the mere sight of their blade bouncing away from Twilight's scale but they did cause some damage to her despite Twilight not showing sign of it. Twilight breathe through her nose before letting her tail slam down one of the bandits into the floor with ease while Joan took this chance to counter.

"Take this!"

His hands tightly hold the spear to shove it through his body with his strength and barely missing a vital organ. The bandit squirms at this but manage to push away Joan away and removing the spear at the same time. Joan land in the floor shaken by the fact that he remains still alive and focusing his attention toward him which made him pause.

"You bastard, you are going to die!" He screams, enrage.

The bandit calls out to Joan as his arm quickly lift up into the air making his ax shine from the sun contact and ready to make some major damage to his body. Joan's eyes shut as if not wanting to see that image but he could hear an agonizing scream and quickly open them to see the bandit on fire. Twilight taking charge of the problem by opening her mouth to release a powerful fire breath and scorching the man body to a cinder. Joan could see the painful sight but didn't dare look away since this is the reality of war and this will be quite common to him now.

"That was foolish of you to do, Joan. Why did you approach the enemy like that and with a disadvantage as well..." Twilight sigh, disappointed.

"I had to..." Joan mutter, sadly and weak, "I didn't want to be useless to you and Ion. I want to do something...I want to get strong.." Joan spoke.

A bright light emits from Twilight body to bring back her human form and her soft gaze look down into a sitting child wanting attention by being strong while knowing that having strength is a curse. Her soft hand tab Joan's shoulder to make his eyes look up into her warm smile and being motherly to the group.

"Come on, no need to be sad about being useless in battle. The most important is that you live and live another day, I am sure you can be strong just give it time for your potential to grow. We aren't rushing you to become Independent so for now, trust us." Twilight calmly teaches.

Joan listen to Twilight's soft words of advice while nodding at her and looking back down to rethink his plan. Meanwhile, Dorinda guard Casca's life against these two brutes giggling like children and deliberately approaching her horse that rattles his head by their sheer malicious aura. Casca shaking a bit at the image of people dying and feeling the pressure of having to do such task herself which is impossible for her. Such a sight only made Dorinda stand in between them and protect Casca with her life should it come to happen, unlike her father.

"Halt there fiends, I won't let you lay a finger to the princess and I recommend to run away as your friend did." Dorinda suggests, coldly.

The reminder of their betray friend made them lose their temper around the cold girl riding on the horse and force them to react by dashing after her. Dorinda remains calm due to experience under her belt and his sole purpose on doing her job right since they put his trust on her. Her hand caress the trusting steed that protect him outside or inside of battle so right now it won't be that different than before.

"Alright Marshall, time to lend me your strength for this battle." Dorinda mutters.

Marshall neighs as his reply while his right foot repeatedly hit the dirty floor with confident and impatient for the incoming battle. Casca holds on her retainer's body tight and could poke around to see the event unfold near her. One of the bandits leap to deliver his attack but luckily Dorinda dodge the attack due to Marshall and took this chance to retaliate to push him away.

"Ugh! You bitch!" The bandits swear.

His free hand clenching on his left shoulder that causes some damage and making the other bandit to take his chance which barely hit her. This causes her to lose balance on the horse and fall with Casca in the dirty floor below. Dorinda grunt from the small injury that barely passes through her armor and quickly looks ahead to the bandit so close to their perimeter with the ax in the air.

The bandit chuckles, "Not so brave, are we? Now, it is your turn to-"

The man's word is interrupted by Marshall's powerful kick which he completely ignores the beast that is faithful to Dorinda and she smile knowing of his heroic nature. Casca, in the other hand, regains her composure from the fall and notice the man from before recovering from the blow. Casca's fear hangs above but she remains strong for everyone on the group and wants to protect them all too. Her shaking left hand open to see a light arrow appear before her and appearing out like magic.

"You can do it Casca...there are just...dolls...yeah" Casca whisper, trembling.

Casca studies at the bandit's feet to figure out the distance with ease and didn't require looking at his eyes out of fear of not shooting back. Her hand ready up True Oath for the shoot and not looking at the target due to fear but Casca has the skill to pull such a stunt like that. The release of the arrow follow by the man's scream cause her to shutter with regret and causing pain to a human being which is quite difficult for her but even so, it did the job done of not killing.

"Nice job milady, I will handle the rest from here." Dorinda compliments.

Casca nod to Dorinda's words hiding behind Marshal which he covers her body with his strong body. Dorinda's legs walk up to the bandit that causes her liege's fear of life and being born so innocent unlike any other girl out there. Her sword ready to end his miserable life right now and they exchange blow with the bandit breathing his last breath. Dorinda's sword piercing into his stomach and ending behind him which causes him to lost strength on holding ax which falls below. The blade slowly left his bleeding body as her leg push away from her sword and let him die on the floor like some animal. Dorinda didn't feel any pity for the man's life since she has gotten used on killing and this is common during wartime so he can feel like Casca does, not anymore.

Ion remains alone with Scar as he left his team to handle the rest of the bandit and trusting everything up to them. He trusts Twilight to handle anything since she is capable of doing so and stronger than even him. He left his faith up to Dorinda to protect his beloved little sister and up to him to bring the good news of his victory. His hand clench on his sword's hilt while his gaze aim toward Scar who remain angry from his comrade's loss and putting his ax on his right shoulder ready to commence with this battle.

"I hope you are ready to die, boy. I don't let anyone live to tell the tale of my raid and especially of a simple spar. We will bet on our life for this and having your hair dye white to be tie to royal blood won't help you." Scar

Ion's mask covers his upper face so it would be hard to recognize him and people outside of Alteria would know of the king's heirs. Nevertheless, his dragon blood wouldn't matter during this battle and remain peaceful still slightly angry at his cruel murder on his people.

"Fine by me, I wouldn't let you live from killing my people anyways." Ion reply, honestly.

His sword addresses truthfully as he desires to conclude this encounter promptly and luckily, he has the skills necessary to do so. Ion took out Flash Edge from his scabbard to rotate counter-clockwise around his body and stopping at 180 degrees to swiftly return to its initial spot while extending his blade out. Scar deeply thinking on Ion's words regarding his people and took this chance to leap instantly toward the boss of the bandit. Scar becomes startle by the young princess abruptly shrinking their distance to slash his body fast.

"What!? How that hell d-"

Scar grunt trying to understand how Ion manages to move so fast with that heavy blade on his hand and want to counterattack but fail due to Ion extreme speed and flexibility. Ion's left feet push aside his feet to trip and causing some damage to his legs which he began to fall into the floor while Ion resume with his devastating assault.

"Falling..." Ion mutters.

Ion has initiated his personal move on Scar which he belittles the princess's abilities and pays the price with pain. As Scar's body falls, Ion brought Flash Edge down into his back to slam his body down and slash to deliver the powerful blow.

"Star!" Ion scream.

Scar growl at Ion's first move so he swings his ax which connects by piercing his armor and making him retreat back with some damage.

"Lucky shot, kid. I guess I did underestimate your skills but it won't happen twice..." Scar mutters.

Ion sigh realizing he is bluffing now as a trail of blood pour down from his lips and soon understand where he stands. With anger guiding Scar, he moves toward Ion but soon apprehends the damage done to his legs by Ion's Falling Star.

"There won't be a second chance, you understand now, right?" Ion remark, "I am sure you can't fight clearly with that injury on your leg so right now, you aren't fighting at your 100%." Ion adds.

This upset Scar knowing Ion rely on a cheap trick to put him on edge and a tactic he is willing to use to put down his enemy. His rage only grew more after seeing Ion's calm and confident expression knowing that he just lost. Hatred clouding his mind as he mindlessly charge without caring for his injury and want to remove that confidence from Ion's face. The princess remains still as he let his strike down on his body and Scar chuckles triumphantly at his blow but soon quickly realized it did nothing at all due to his legs losing strength to giving that swing more vigor.

"No matter how weak you are right now..." Ion whisper.

His glaring eyes peering from his mask to show his resolve and his handhold on the hilt, he pulls out his blade so swiftly that Scar felt his body fall without feeling his blade touch him.

"You will die for your sins." Ion finish.

Scar fell into his knee right in front of Ion while gazing right to see everyone reunite and safe without any major casualty which is music to his ears. Everyone look at the bandit's boss on his knees while Joan and Casca having some effects by such a sight. Ion putting Flash Edge on Scar's left shoulder and ending his life with one single strike, an unavoidable fate by his hands.

"This is the end of you." Ion spoke.

"I lost the fight, how could I possibly lose to a kid." Scar mutters, surprise.

Scar ashamed on his lost so rather dull and fast by Ion's swordsmanship which only put his pride to utter shame.

"What are you waiting for? Just end my stupid life already." Scar requests, shamefully.

Scar's words hit Casca's kind heart while the scene of his big brother ending another man's life made her eyes watery and her voice be stuck in her throat wanting to speak up. Such belief would make anyone hate her for being so kind and doesn't want any violence anymore between anyone else.

"You are a cruel man, Scar. I will never forgive you for what you had done." Ion spoke, raising his sword, "I will send you back to hell with one single slash!" Ion spoke.

"Stop!"

Ion's Flash Edge hit the floor below missing Scar barely and silence fill the area as Casca's voice stop her big brother. He remains frozen still unable to comprehend at his little sister stopping him from killing this monster and even Scar remain silent.

"Please, stop fighting big brother. That's enough." Casca plead.

Ion pulls back his sword to keep it from his scabbard and look at his sister. She tries to look strong since Casca is looking at his big brother gaze but Ion's eyes look confuse and surprise by her sudden command.

"No more, I don't want anyone to die here. Don't do it, brother." Casca repeat.

"Casca..." Ion said.

The voice of his precious brother made her lose control of her tears and he barely spoke anything negative or positive but still, her tears began to roll away. Casca's hand holding her chest barely holding back her crying and standing up to his Ion who remain puzzled at what to do now. Scar listens to the girl pleading for his life and began to stand up to face her directly.

"Why? Why are you protecting me so badly?" Scar asks, softly, "Don't you understand, I kill many people and I would of kill you too if I had won." Scar reminds her.

Casca began to whimper and her tears began to flow down her soft cheek unable to resist her sadness.

"No, you don't understand! Killing you won't bring anyone and it hurt me to watch people die. Please, I don't want for anyone to die, it hurt my heart to see it." Casca explains, crying.

The spectacle of Casca crying causes their anger to fade out from their body and Ion approaching to gently pat her head to reassure her of his choice.

"Alright Casca, if that's what you want then I won't kill him." Ion spoke, softly.

Scar remains stun at Ion's vows while hearing the girl wanting the battle to end and making him feel unsure of his action. A scuff can be heard as the man turn away walking and annoy by the fact that a small girl save his life by Ion's might.

"What weakling, you can all cling each other but not me. I am out of here." Scar spoke.

Scar left the town without a fight and heading toward Serena Forest without thinking since he wants to escape Casca's view. The battle is won but the last match made Ion look at his own sister and want to know more about her belief on this whole warfare. Slowly figuring out her hatred toward death and violence which Ion, Twilight, and Dorinda won't hesitate to do.

Act IV END

[Ion & Twilight Support]

The night sky shines brightly above the small town near Serena Forest and Ion couldn't sleep well tonight so he had to depart from his room to have some fresh air. His mask gone from his face since he didn't need it and people never did walk during the night so he felt safe. The cold hair dancing on his white hair as he put his shoulder on the wooden fence and remain outside for a bit.

"It is odd to see you awake at night, Ion."

Ion's eyes glance back to see Twilight speaking her mind and joining on Ion with getting some fresh air. A smile appears on his lips to see his old friend and always keen on keeping a good watch of his actions, even when he was a little kid.

"I guess so, I never expect you to be awake as well." Ion reply, chuckling, "Did you also couldn't sleep well tonight?" Ion wonders.

"Not exactly, I always keep an eye on the people when I was in the castle and now it won't be much different." Twilight reply.

Ion isn't shocked to hear her reply since his retainer is quite the power and hardworking dragon that she is. Still, he was curious as to why she join to be his retainer and why such a dangerous job above all else. With her status, Twilight could easily get married and live a peaceful life without the killing. His hand scratches his head thinking about it and looking at the moon.

"So Twilight, I was wondering about something. Why did you want to be my retainer? I am sure you could live happily and peacefully without this kind of lifestyle." Ion asks.

Twilight thought about Ion's question as she joins his side and looks at the moon together thinking about their past together.

"I want to see how far you will go and whether you were different from your father. I realized as you were growing that you ARE different from the king and it wasn't a bad thing. That made you want you are today and I like that man that is standing right now." Twilight spoke.

Ion's blush slightly at her compliments and feel a bit nervous to meet her expectation after hearing her.

"Even if you are a bit impatient." Twilight tease.

"H-Hey! I resent that." Ion reply, stuttering.

Ion turns to the teasing dragon before they both laugh at their little chat and forgetting about the war altogether. They had a powerful trust among each other since Ion meets Twilight very young and trust her completely with anything he has trouble with. The laughter ceases as Twilight remind him about her trust and how she always clinging into him so he can be better than his father which is a tall order.

"I promise you, that I will become a better king but most importantly, a good friend to you. I hope you can be by my side forever, Twilight." Ion promise.

Ion smile gently his right arm is extended out to receive a handshake and promising her to be a better man that she could ever imagine. Twilight smile knowing that Ion has grown quite a lot since he was a small kid and reach for his hand to shake proudly.

"Likewise, I will do my part that you reach safely back home and become the best king of Alteria." Twilight nods.

[Casca & Dorinda Support]

Casca woke up from a nightmare as she sigh and turns her body around to see Dorinda next to her. The princesses couldn't sleep well after the battle of Scar and how the others could easily put down the bandit with any hesitation. A warm hand holding her own made her startle and to see Dorinda hugging her which felt so warm.

"There no need for you to push yourself, you are fine the way you are and I will continue to serve you whether you kill or not." Dorinda whisper.

Casca smiles warmly at the caring retainer that understands her despite many people trying to push her and hug Dorinda back by wrapping her arms around her. She felt so happy being around Dorinda and her trusting horse, Marshall.

"Thank you, Dorinda." Casca whisper, happily.

Casca's smile happily

which put Dorinda in a good mood tonight and began to feel happy to make her smile after encountering such a bad experience. It is difficult to put Casca in a deep depression so Dorinda will do her best to protect her AND keep that smile shining through this little group no matter what.
