...

...

...

Before there was an "Almeda Kingdom", years ago, the plate was divided into four warring nations.

- the Trinith Dynasty,

- the Zeton State,

- the Rigalia Empire,

- and the Hegarus Kingdom.

And just like one of the basic impulses of a man, greed on power and fame envelops each nation, as they fight upon and conquer every lands and territory their enemy has.

...

...

At the wide hectares of plain fields on the Cretan Field, sounds of clashes and groans of pain reverberate the entire area as Zeton State knight soldiers clash with the knight soldiers of the Hegarus Kingdom.

Clashing of swords,

*shing**shing**shing**shing**shing*

- bashing of shields,

*buung**buung**buung**buung**buung*

- firing of crossbows and muskets through line formations,

*phwoong**phwoong**phwoong**phwoong**phwoong*

*BANG!**BANG!**BANG!**BANG!**BANG!**BANG!**BANG!**BANG!*

- and the battle cries and groans of the soldiers, as they fight and charge their opponents head-on.

"AAAAAARGGGGGGHHH"

"UWWWAAAAAARRRRGGGGGHHHHH!" *

"UGOOOHHHH!"

...

...

Inside the temporary Hegarus Military Camp that is set up at a top hill days earlier before the war at the Cretan Field, overlooking the battlefields is 31-year-old Major Staniek Von Biuren assessing the situation of the ongoing battle.

He, and with his other knight companions, assess the situation at a table, with a map and some small pieces of banners of their enemy flag and theirs while they got a clear overlook below the battlefield.

As he moves a small banner of their flag on the map, he further discusses his battle plan.

[ Major Staniek ] : " So while the Zeton State soldiers are occupying the northern and northwestern part of the field, I want five cavalier platoons from Murdochs' Cavaliers to move out from behind our troops to charge into the enemy's left side formations. They must be pushed back from our main battle group so we can focus more of our men on the far right side formations. "

He then again moves a portion of their small flag banners.

[ Major Staniek ] : " Assuming they fight on Murdochs' Cavaliers, I want Lerking's Company to take the right side. Be sure to shoot overhead arrows and fire two-line formations of muskets first before charging in. We need to make them break in formation and disorder them. Any questions gentlemen? "

[ Captain Lerking ] : " None, major. "

[ Lieutenant Murdoch ] : " None, major. "

[ Sergeant Jessup ] : " None, major. "

[ Major Staniek ] : " Good. Now move out. Keep those scums in disarray. "

What follows in a matter of minutes, are the screams of the horror of Zeton State soldiers as they were being annihilated by the Hegarus Kingdom soldiers.

"ARRRRRRRGHHHHH!!"

"GWWWWAAAAARGHHHKKK!!

"FALL BACK! FALL BACK!"

It would then lead to a successful victory of Hegarus Kingdom, and they would now take the field as now part of their territory.

As the battle came to a successful win to the Hegarus MIlitary, Major Staniek with some of his other knight officers, surveyed the entire area.

The ground and grass are tainted with blood and littered with broken weapons as the corpses of Zeton State soldiers scattered across the area. As for their side, there are only a few casualties.

... ...

As they continue to walk on the field, foul stenches linger from the piles of corpses with the crows beginning to eat the dead.

[ Major Staniek ] : " ....*sigh* May God bless these souls. "

Major Staniek then orders a priest from his command to conduct a small prayer for the fallen soldiers - whether theirs or enemy.

As the priest started to pray, all of the knights within the area stopped what they were doing and stood firmly while facing their heads down.

... ...

After the short prayer, the knights continue assessing the aftermath.

Major Staniek orders to search for survivors to treat them with medical care - whether theirs or enemy.

Then he went back inside the Hegarus Military Camp to make an overall report about the aftermath of the battle.

Inside the tent, Major Staniek sits down on his office table to prepare some to write for his aftermath report of the Battle of Cretan.

But then, just as he starts writing, a knight approaches Major Staniek and hands out a specific paper to him.

Major Staniek grabs and looks at the paper the knight handed out.

[ Major Staniek ] : " Hmm? What is this? "

As he reviews the paper, he immediately sees the main topic of the paper.

[ Major Staniek ] : " Hmm. A new honorary knight eh?

He places his left hand on his chin and strokes it, wondering about the new knight.

[ Major Staniek ] : " ....and he's .... - Baron Phillips? "

Knight : " Ye-yes, major. He's the son of Duke Lumbard. "

[ Major Staniek ] : " Duke Lumbard of the Bellmare District? "

Knight : " Yes, major. "

[ Major Staniek ] : " Hmm. And now he's entrusting his son to me huh? Interesting. Where is this boy right now? "

Knight : " At the moment, major, he's awaiting further orders inside the Main Barracks, at Orkney City. "

[ Major Staniek ] : "Hmmm. "

Major Staniek continues to read the new special recruit's paper.

...

After a couple of seconds, he then looks back to the knight and places the recruit’s paper on his table.

[ Major Staniek ] : " Alright. Tell him to prepare his belongings and that I'll personally meet him after I'm done with here tomorrow. "

The knight then salutes.

Knight: " Yes, major! "

The knight then walks outside, mounts on his horse, and makes his way towards Orkney City to deliver Major Staniek’s order to the new special recruit.

Meanwhile, Major Staniek continues making a battle report inside the main command tent.

...

Inside his room, 19-year-old Baron Phillips is writing in his diary.

He writes:

" ...March 11, ████

Today, is the fucking worst day of my life. My dad really forced me to partake in the war! Can't you believe this? My life at home is fucking enough! Hell, I want to just get comfy inside of my room back to my home and do whatever I want! But noooo. Fucking dad told to me like: "PHILLipS, YoU nEeD TO dO ThIS, dO tHAT, JOIN THE KNIGHTS, iT'S fOR yOUr OWn gOOD, fOr YoU tO bE A FuTURE rULER, Blah, blah, blah". Fucking bullshit crap. I don't fucking need this worthless-honor-recruit-knight or some shit. I want to play and drink all night long alright! But, yeah. Even if I wanted to go back, I can't. Dad told me that I need to have an honor reward from Major Staniek or whatever he's called, before I could go home. He said that he is one of the greatest knight commanders leading in the battle right now. Yeah. Utter bullcrap. I'll just bribe that major out to give me honor or something so that I can go home already."

After writing, a knock came from his door.

*knock* *knock* *knock* *knock*

??? : " Baron Phillips? Are you there, my lord? "

Baron Phillips, still on his table, looks at the door.

[ Baron Phillips ] : " Who's there? "

??? : " I'm a messenger knight on the behalf of Major Staniek, my lord. "

[ Baron Phillips ] : *oh speak of the devil...*

As the baron thought with annoyance.

[ Baron Phillips ] : " Alright. What does Major Staniek want with me? "

Knight Messenger : " Yes my lord. Major Staniek wants you to prepare and arrange your belongings. He will greet you tomorrow to begin your assessment. "

The baron lets out a disappointed sigh.

[ Baron Phillips ] : " *sigh* I see. Okay. I will be packing my things up. "

Knight Messenger : " Understood, my lord. "

The knight messenger then walks out and heads to the nearest friendly station while Baron Phillips prepares to pack and assemble his things up.

[ Baron Phillips ] : " Whatever. Let's just get this over with. "

.........

After he finished packing up his belongings, he then headed to his bed to sleep.

...

As the sound of the trumpets signals the wake-up call on the entire barracks of Orkney CIty, Major Staniek's convoy arrives at the barracks.

Some of the knights greeted the convoy with salutations.

Then, as the main convoy comes to a halt, the knights that are looking at the main convoy are in awe as they see the infamous Major Staniek step outside of his convoy.

... ... ...

Meanwhile, inside Baron Phillips' Quarters, Baron Phillips is still asleep, despite the wake-up calls from the trumpets.

*snore* *snore*

He lays down in his bed, the blanket is off on the ground, his t-shirt is half-open, and saliva coming out of his mouth as he snores in his sleep.

Then, a knock on his door.

*knock* *knock* *knock* *knock*

But Baron Phillips doesn't wake up.

*knock* *knock* *knock* *knock*

??? : " Baron Phillips? Are you there? "

*knock* *knock* *knock* *knock*

Then, Baron Phillips opens his eyes. He is now somewhat woken up.

[ Baron Phillips ] : " Wha-what? "

He scratches his head as he gets up from his bed with annoyance and goes to the door to check who's knocking.

[ Baron Phillips ] : " *yawns* What is it? It's still early - "

As soon as he opened the door, he saw a well-dressed man, with many colors on his suit and a humble face.

The well-dressed man smiled at Baron Phillips.

??? : " Heh. I’m glad to see you’re somewhat getting comfy in this room. I'm Major Staniek. The one that your dad entrusted to assess you on becoming one of my soldiers. "

Baron Phillips' drowsiness fades away as he immediately recognizes the major’s name, and backs off to bow down to him.

[ Baron Phillips ] : " Fo-forgive me for my laidback manners, Major Staniek! "

[ Major Staniek ] : " Nah it's fine. Hurry up now. Bring your things outside and some of my men will help you. Wait for me outside while I get some reports to pass on. "

[ Baron Phillips ] : " Ye-yes, Major Staniek! "

Baron Phillips then quickly arranges himself, while some of Major Staniek's knights come inside of his room to help Baron Phillips displace his things.

While Major Staniek proceeds to the Barracks Office to hand out his recent battle report from the Battle of Cretan.

............

After minutes of preparation and arranging, Baron Phillips proceeds to bring all of his belongings, with the help of Major Staniek's knights.

They would head outside where the main caravan was, to embark on all of his belongings.

...

Inside the Barracks Office, Major Staniek is having a conversation with his superior - Colonel Ellias C. Grimiere.

They are sitting inside a living room, with tea and biscuits on the table.

[ Colonel Ellias ] : " ....because of that, there's a possible chance that the Trinith Dynasty will strike both Rigalia Empire and us. You know of them. They are hard war-freaks. I recently heard from General Lewis that in one of his scouts, Trinith Dynasty soldiers literally leave no survivors. Brutally killing all of their opponents, including the surrendered ones. "

Major Staniek, sitting on the opposite side of Colonel EIllias by the office table, grabs his teacup to drink while reading a report paper.

[ Major Staniek ] : " *sips tea* Truly barbaric. That reminds me. My scouts also reported that they are pillaging and ransacking Yormford City. I should've set up a base near that city. But because I didn’t, too many innocents lost their lives. "

As Major Staniek said in a resentful face, facing down.

Colonel Ellias stands up and goes to a window with a down face. He looks outside, overlooking Orkney City, and sighs with disappointment.

[ Colonel Ellias ] : " *sigh* Well, that's just how war is. War lets out the evil inside of ours. Too many innocent lives were and are going to be lost, men might betray each other, greed, corruption, and the likes."

He then looks back at Major Staniek with a light smile.

[ Colonel Ellias ] : " But we, we just had to fight that "evil". We can't let it have the best on us. Hmph. I got a saying. “ To end a slaughter with evil, one must continue to kill with mercy.” A little bit of contradicting isn’t it? Haha. "

Major Staniek then looks at Colonel Ellias.

[ Major Staniek ] : " Yes, colonel. "

Then, a knight officer from Major Staniek’s company interrupts and salutes to the two superiors.

Knight Officer : " Pardon for my intrusion, Colonel Ellias. Major Staniek, sir. Baron Phillips is now ready to depart. "

Major Staniek then stands up.

[ Major Staniek ] : " Good. Colonel Ellias, thank you for the tea. We will now move out. "

The major salutes the colonel with humility.

[ Colonel Ellias ] : " *salutes* Godspeed. "

Then, as the knight and Major Staniek are leaving the Barracks Office, the major asks the knight about Baron Phillips.

[ Major Staniek ] : " Are all of his things packed up? "

Knight Officer : " Yes, major. "

[ Major Staniek ] : " Good. Make sure to treat the young lad well. Got that? "

Knight Officer : " Yes, major. But, not to be rude, major. All we see on that kid is he's very incompetent. He's also spitting laidback and nonchalant things on us. Like, he just wants to go home and he did not want to take part in this battle. For me, major, he shouldn't be here and probably he is still early to join the knights. He should've gone back to his home."

But, Major Staniek smiles.

[ Major Staniek ] : " Hehe. Don't you fellas worry. I'll handle that young lad. "

The knight then got confused.

Knight Officer: " If I may ask, major. How? "

Major Staniek and the knight officer reach outside and stop to look at their caravan with Baron Phillips still putting his belongings on the back of the caravan.

[ Major Staniek ] : " ....I'll make him my battle partner. "

The knight officer is deeply stunned and shocked by the major’s answer, that his eyes and jaws widened.

Knight Officer : " Re-really, sir? "

The major then say with certainty:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

[ Major Staniek ] : " ...Yes. "
