Ancestors

The captain of the guards knew that fighting against Rain, even before they took a single step forward, he could bury them underground and be done with it. Even against Branden, they wouldn't last ten seconds if he had the chance to cast one of his large spells… the captain also knew that his soldiers didn't want to fight, even more so when the sea folk could join the battle. In the end, they silently moved to the side and then headed toward the exit of the city… a bunch of people joined them.

"Are you sure about that?" Rain asked. "While fifty soldiers won't be much of a problem in the future, they probably took everything of value from your house to use as war funds."

"It is fine…" Orcis said and then sighed. "Today marks the start of a new history for the city, and it would be a pity to start it with bloodshed… I also think that I deserve losing almost everything, but it is fine, I can start over."
