Separated By Time

That night a man was sitting on his wooden bed inside a tent. He sighed as he missed his wife whom he had left to war. It had been four days since they had seen each other.

Suddenly someone stood in front of his tent, he could tell by the shadow of the person standing there.

"Dion, are you asleep?" asked a man from outside the tent. It was his twin brother, Theodore.

"Oh no, what's wrong?" asked Dion.

"Father called you, he wants you to come to the meeting tent to discuss strategy for tomorrow."

Hearing that, Dion immediately put his cloak back on and walked out of the tent. He turned to Theodore who was standing nearby and went together to the meeting tent.

"You look sluggish since yesterday, are you still thinking about Lian?" asked Theodore.

"Of course, my wife needs me but I have to be here for an unknown amount of time. How can I not feel worried? She even has to do father's duty," Dion explained, a little annoyed.
