Herald of Steel

As the defeated remnant of Menes's forces entered the city, seeing their dejected appearances and badly mauled state, Cambyses's heart skipped several beats.


With them defeated, and the enemy so close...…Cambyses dared not think further.


And coupled with the losses she recalled, the nineteen-year-old began to feel a stinging headache coming.

And knowing this, the day Cambyses had gotten the news, the girl was so hurt and afraid that she even found it hard to swallow her food for the rest of the day, feeling butterflies swarming inside her stomach.
