Battle of the border II - Fall of the border

"Commander, they are coming," One of the soldiers shouted at Remi, who was observing the letters sent to her by Velian.

Hearing the news of the incoming war she jolted from their spot with an aggressive look and started giving orders to everyone.

"Make sure you hit them with cannons!" Remi knew this time, they might be bringing skilful mages, so there was a high risk of their cannons not being too effective just like earlier.

Commander Remi stood atop the towering wall that separated the free lands from the tyrannical empire. She gazed out at the horizon, her sharp eyes scanning for any signs of movement.

"Just as I expected, they are coming with a bigger army," Noticing the sounds of the iron and loud footsteps, she knew things were about to get too real for them.

Suddenly, a dark cloud of smoke appeared in the distance, accompanied by a chorus of eerie chants. The empire was coming, and they were bringing their magic.
