You should know that our preparations for the operation at Alma Mine were quite thorough. I'd as soon not become the latest target in "Pin the Tail on the Scapegoat" for that wench. I have to thank you for speaking on my behalf in there, Dias. So! What was on Her Majesty's official schedule of events today? Will she be spectating as the gladiators tear each other limb from limb for her amusement? Or will she be attending services to worship the young boys in the choir? What a busy life our queen leads! The two leave the audience hall, and we fade to a different scene. But if you fail to take back the fortress after all this. If you say so, then I won't press the subject. Think of it as mere bait for the real prize of the Sand Fortress, and it's well worth the sacrifice. We owe much to Count Selvan's corps for keeping the enemy occupied at Alma Mine. Indeed we will, your majesty, and my sorrow over this failure is heartfelt.Īn operation is already underway to recapture the Sand Fortress, be assured of that. And now I hear that the surprise attack plan on Alma Mine has failed as well! You will make an accounting of yourselves for this! What do you think!? Ever since the Alistellians took the Sand Fortress back, our front line has been receeding. What is it you have summoned us to do for you today? I've only just arrived myself.Īh, very good. I hope you can forgive me as well, General Dias. Meanwhile, in Granorg Palace, we see Selvan enter the audience hall and join Dias, who is already there. Stocke walks up the staircase and enters the door on the right. Now, let us add a new chapter to the White Chronicle. There will always be people around you to lend their support. You have begun walking the path of a soldier. We walk toward Alistel Castle, and the screen fades to white. Okay, that's enough talk about that! Let's get going! Whatever we think doesn't change what happened. Putting it out of your mind is the best way to get beyond it.Īll right. I'm telling you, it was making a beeline for that support beam. How should I know? It must have had its reasons.Īs I keep saying, it's all in your head. And one causing its own death through a cave-in would indicate the opposite. Marc thinks I'm just imagining it, mind you.īecause if that were true, it would mean monsters have some semblance of intelligence. ![]() Marc and I were practically on a silver platter in its path, but it ignored us. But I swear that monster came specifically to destroy that support beam. There's no predicting Heiss.īut there's something that still bothers me. That's when Heiss gave us a place in Specint. We were grateful to have lived, but Raynie and I had nowhere to go afterwards. So you were buried alive? That would have been the end for most. I don't suppose I need to tell the rest of it, do I? Then one of the monsters broke the support beam holding up the ceiling. A horde of monsters suddenly appeared, and we were swept up in an enormous melee. We had taken a job from Alistel to guard a mine. The mercenary troop we used to be in was wiped out by one. Twice is enough for that particular experience, thank you. For a while there when the cave-in happened, I didn't know what was gonna happen to us.
