the journey to the front lines

  Eventually though Sicus comes up to dy gora with his little 4 string guitar in hand strumming away”so dy gora i understand your a sokaran princess its incredible that you are out here to fight for us”

  Gora scoffs at his petty attempt of commerce”no i am THE princess of Sokara. i am next in line to be the grand chief of your neighboring nation. I am here on a quest to redeem a piece of my families legacy. The only reason i am here is because you astrou have gave me a convenient way of doing so”

  Gora’s voice is bold, it holds no malice but is crushing regardless Sicus frowns and backs away feeling deflected by the princesses’ hard words. Though as time goes by gora finds herself riding next to rex. They’d be having a pleasant conversation about the scenery of the nd and its beauty.

  Cofus looks over to the conversing escapaders considering joining in on their conversation but not wanting to merely throw himself into the chat he resides to simply enjoying the scenery while they are as well but without them.

  Sicus and his sister Arvus would be chatting along the path. Sicus strumming away on his pandura the roads are loosely scattered with soldiers making their way to their defensive position the sounds of instruments being pyed fills the air making it sweet as they all py in tune within each other. Noisy is not the word one would use to describe such a scene, lively feels more well pced as the soldiers ugh and cheer as they march towards the front.

  As hours go by a few soldiers part ways but the roads stay lively cofus and rex would be talking together as gora finds herself commercing with a young man whose hair has two stripes of green on his bangs. His ox that he rides upon would be a beautiful creature it was mostly white with green spots decorated around its body and the tips of the powerful beasts horns.

  She looked at the ox amazedly for a moment before looking back to the green haired man”so you’re a lisad then huh? Green hair and the ox kinda a dead give away”

  Gora says smiling at the stranger. The young man looks over to her and nods though his face carried much self contempt to it”yes and im guessing by the bulky stallion and the bright untamed yellow hair you’re a sokaran no?”

  Gora nods not sure how to take the the messy hair remark but for now smiles and puts it aside”so why are you helping the astrans as well neighbor?”

  she says looking at the man interested in what his story might be .He looks at her and sighs, his eyes fall somberly downwards.”my tribe migrated from our majestic pins found in the most southern of the luutons tributaries. We headed for the coast to hopefully escape the luutons greed. As the astran influence grew in the area we moved into the cities the Lisads are a proud people of the calm pins once i heard the luutons were pushing further into my peoples homends and reaching the edges of the astrans. I made sure to enlist my aid.”

  Gora looks at the man with abit of respect” a man that fights for what he believes the world can never have too many of those just don’t let people have you to believe what they want you to fight for”

  The lisad man was taken aback his beast slows down as he bnkly stares at gora who movies on ahead of him wondering what she could mean. Gora eventually finds herself chatting with utum along the road.

  She looks at the massive shield that was attached to his hulking beast. His lizard a rge monitor with a big gut it holds its head high so that’s its on body doesn’t touch the ground. While not a refined beast of a high noble what it cked in elegance it made up for in efficiency. The beast was rge but not bulky nor did its skin look loose or fp it held itself like a proud rigid lizard its eyes darted off to the side as utum lead it.

  But even among this impressive war mount the rge shield utum had tied onto it the beast looked small like the shield was weighing heavily on the beast’s body. Gora couldn’t help but look upon this rge stone shield with much interest. Eventually unable to subside her curiosity she meets utum in the eyes” so utum that shield is surely too rge to use in one hand how do you use those javelins of yours?”

  Utum stopped observing the birds in the sky and looks down at the sokarans princess with much grace. His hair flowed like a luxurious mane with 8 red stripes perfectly convergent of each other.”huh oh no i use the shield and my javelins at the same time. I hold the shield in my right arm and throw the spear with my left”

  Gora looked at the rge man with much confusion surely he must be joking but what an arrogantly stupid joke to make on her as if he were questioning her intelligence. The idea he could even lift the ginormous shield with one hand was insane while she must admit he was a behemoth of a man standing at what she figures to be around 7’9. That shield looked to be closer to 9 feet than 8 it clinged to the side of his beast like it was a pte of armor for it. How absurd he even say anything so outrageous to her benign questioning.
