OT: Mystic Wars: (IT HAS BEGUN!!!!) Join Up

[Irulan]

Cyrene said at a table, writing some notes and signing papers, when suddenly someone knocked at her door.

‘come in’ she said while she laid down her writing equipment and rose from her chair. The door opened and a messenger come into her room, he bowed and gave her a letter.

‘thank you’ Cyrene said. After the messenger left she opened the letter, it was a short note from one of the guard posts at the entrance of the city. it said that an small group of cavalry just entered the city, thy seemed to escort someone who looked like an messenger.

“A messenger?.... where did that messenger come from? what news would he bring? Will it be good news? Or something bad?... well… I guess I shall find out soon enough”

Cyrene walked to a window, overseeing the piazza in front of the palace, she could see the messenger the note spoke about and an soldier dismount and walk into the palace. He would be brought to an special room where he could rest and get some refreshments, Cyrene knew this. And she loved that tradition, that gave her some time to prepare for the conversation. ‘I’m not nervous….I’m not nervous ’ she whispered… ‘ ah damn it why didn’t I pay more attention when thy told me this when I was a kid?.....well it is to late for that now’

Cyrene walked to the door and opened it. Near the entrance where a handful of personal guards. She summoned one of them. ‘please go and tell my maids that I need them immediately, after that you must go to the kitchen and inform them that I expect the dinner to be extra good today cause we have an guest, I want to make an good impression on the messenger. From the looks of him I’d say he comes from some lands that lies inland. So tell the kitchen that besides our dishes I do want some things from his lands, so without the sea fruits or sea fishes. if we have the ingredients that is. perhaps that will make him feel more at home. Go quickly now’

She closed the door again. And she felt some excitement, this is the first messenger that managed to reach her kingdom ever since the battle of Itachola* and the fall of the Empire … perhaps the dangers in the lands are decreasing? Nah the last reports she had of the outside world where reports of chaos and disorder, there must be chaos , the Empire did not last, so how could any other nation survive? ‘but the reports are old, from my fathers reign. Perhaps things are changing for the best she whispered’

*History of the empire:
*the battle of Itachola:

(I wrote this in an attempt to create more of a background of these lands)

An huge battle fought in the Empire, the Emperor, seeing how his empire was crumbling for years tried to regain the control of the rebellious cities. So he spend an year to gather an enormous army.. City after city was taken and burned to the ground, if thy chose to try to resist him. But the last rebellious cities formed an army and marched against the emperor. The two armies met at the plains of Itachola where a 5 day battle was fought. the Emperor and the rebel leaders both had there victories and there defeats in that battle because both armies and leaders where evenly matched. the emperor had a slight numerous advantage, but the rebels had an superior position and thy had an ally, werewolves, although the werewolves also managed to kill an large portion of rebel troops thy did manage to turn the battle in favor of the rebels… So In the end it was the rebel army that won the battle. The emperor was torn into very small pieces by an werewolf, and his personal guard fought to the death… records say that an enormous number of people died on that field. (afterwards no one dared to came there and the once great plain turned into a swamp.
