Steel and Sorrow: Rise of the Mercenary king

The sun was beginning its descent, casting a golden hue over the city of Red Rose as Mavius returned as a victorious Imperator. The air buzzed with the energy of celebration, the streets packed with cheering citizens waving theirs arms around. Flower petals rained from the balconies, and children darted through the crowd, laughing as they mimicked the soldiers marching proudly behind their leader.

The victorious Imperator's sharp eyes scanned the jubilant faces lining the streets, his expression one of stoic satisfaction, though the faintest hint of a smile tugged at the corners of his mouth.

The soldiers following him held their heads high, their polished shields and spears catching the light as they passed under the great archway leading into the heart of the city. The chants of the people echoed in the narrow streets for the men who had successfully repelled the barbarian raid threatening their eastern borders.
