She stood in her garden, looking across the Village Green. "So," she thought, "there is to be war." She would follow Aeric's lead, whatever would be his decision about this matter, she would stand with him.
Nuri sorted through her armor..she was new at planning what would best serve her need of protection in battle.
"What a mess!!" Nuri spun around. "Aeric, do not sneak up on me like that!"
The man laughed, "what are you doing with this junk?" He picked up a piece of reasonally repaired leather gaunlets, but dropped them when he caught the smell of them. "Whew..these smell of the sewer.."
Nuriko grabbed up the gaunlets and tossed them back in to the chest she had been searching. "Never mind the gaunlets. What news have ye about this mess facing the realm?"
His face grim, Aeric spoke only one word.."WAR!"
She looked at him for a moment, and then grinned.."Well, at least the next weeks shall prove interesting, shall they not? What of the others, for surely cousin, ye know I will stand with ye!"
"They too see the need. We must train hard, for there is little time left before the battles begin." Aeric smiled a tired smile, "There is a good deal to be done, and precious little time to do it in."
Nuri stood still for a while then spoke in almost a whisper..."A time back there were knights who rode these lands...I remember their battle cry..I think this is how it goes..Brother to Brother in Life as in Death!!!" She smiled..."These are our lands, these are our brothers and sisters who are taking up the sword against the tyranny..tis time to make a stand, and, cousin, I stand with thee and our allies. Where ye would lead, I will follow gladly."
Nuriko tried to calm her hands, they shook. She had never deliberately chosen to take the life of another, but this was war. Urging Valorite into the gate, she yelled her death cry...'TODAY IS A GOOD DAY TO DIE!!
