Bet on It

Aria Glacies convened a meeting for all the remaining living knights after they took care of the corpses of both human and chimera alike.

It was a somber reminder of just how fragile and fickle the lives we live really are. One moment one lives, and as easy as it comes, it gets taken away.

The ashes of the battle and the desecration of the land filled the air with despair and grief.

"That leader of theirs. That lion, he spoke as though he knew me. His words were nothing special nor memorable, but they made me remember the times from back when I was a trainee.

Mikan listened to her words and nodded his head. "Aye, General. I truly do know how you are feeling right now. But keep in mind, that thing that lead them was a chimera, there is absolutely no mistaking it. But there is also no denying the fact that he also felt oddly human, he definitely did."
