The Amber Sword

Ling looked at the people in the distance.

Several girls clamored and picked up firewood in the woods by the street. They were wearing thick cotton coats and frozen faces, but laughter came from time to time from afar.

The greatest and most real harm that war has inflicted on a country in a short period of time is the decline in the number of young and young people. Eruin has experienced too much fighting in just three years, and the men are on the front lines in one group, only to see the elderly and women working in the fields.

But even in the most difficult of times, one does not give up hope of optimism. During the winter of the year, more than one hundred and thirty babies crashed in the cold-fir collar, symbolizing the future for every family.

In the far reaches of the earth, snow has erased the traces of war and buried all the pain and ugliness in a bland snow. The seeds of the wild grass wait quietly under the snow-covered soil, waiting for the spring of next year to turn this place into a living land.

The resilience of life is sometimes due to its small size.

Far away is Valhalla, whose lush branches, even in winter, are like jade, rooted in the land and slowly absorb the magic beneath the ground. A faint cloud surrounds the sky, reflecting the evening glow as if it were a fire.

“Sister. ”

Lin turned around.

Lotus wore a black fur coat, gold silk buttons and a furry collar that lined her white face with extra tenderness, and silver hair draped gently across the back of her brain and tucked into a wind cap. Shee, who brought her here, squatted down and watched the little girl gently. She trimmed her collar with her hands and said to the two of them: “I'm leaving first, Mintai City has a lot to do, I'll come back tomorrow to see you. ”

Lotus nodded.

“Lin, take care of your sister. ”

Ling nodded her head.

“Sister Xi, we know you're busy,” replied Lotus naively. "We'll take care of ourselves. Thank you. ”

Sy smiled, her red hair lined with the afterglow of the sunset, she held a long gun, held Torin's face with her hand, and looked at Ling with some concern, which led her to stand up straight and walk back into the forest three times a step. Before they left, they finally waved back to their sisters and told them to hurry back.

Lotus watched the shadow of the mountain girl disappear into the woods, and the divine colour on her little face became lonely again: "Sister, are we still going to find Mom? ”

Lin nodded.

“Why would Mom leave us?” Lian asked: “Is it because we did something wrong? ”

Ling grabbed her sister with some cold hands and shook her head.

Lotus lowered her head.

In the distance, several young firewood collectors have joined the city.

As the twilight grew thicker, starlit lights appeared in Valhalla city. In residential areas, mothers' voices were calling for naughty children to come home, smoking on the roof, occasionally sending one or two reprehensible voices from the house, orange yellow lights spraying a silhouette of a cozy family on the road, and people were on their way home in a hurry, and the crowd - a sister holding her sister's hand firmly - constituted the whole of this crippled family.

In the distance, a woman watched the scene silently, holding onto the wall with one hand, her fingers unwittingly caught inside the masonry.

“Why don't you go see them? ”

“You don't understand.” Tiamas - whitefully said the little man on his shoulder.

“Why don't I get it,” Ruth replied, "Aren't you just scared? ”

“I'm scared, so what? ”

“But you're their mother, and do you know how long it took them to find you in Madara, how much they suffered, and they were just two little girls, Ms. Tiamas —— they were your daughters.” Root doesn't know where his anger comes from, but he just feels like he can't be indifferent.

“I'm finally leaving. ”

“How great, I know what you're going to do. Isn't that the wolf?” Ruth said, "But if you're leaving, why are you here? After all, you want to see your daughters, don't you? You see them, they don't see you. ”

The fairy prince turned around and looked at the woman: "Even in the face of extinction, are you afraid to face your own daughter? ”

Tiamas' silver eyes flashed with a slight movement.

And she turned around and looked at this little guy, and she said, "It wasn't long before you were with Brando, so you learned what that guy can say? ”

“I don't give a shit about you because I fought side by side.” Ruth grunted and was extremely dissatisfied not to go too far.

The wind is getting cold.

The sky began to snow.

The snow seemed to be burying the world, a snowflake the size of a goose, dyeing the world white.

Lin turned the key to pull the door open and was about to toe up to light the hanging light by the door - but suddenly she stopped and looked stunned at the bright light in the door. In her tiny silver eyes, she suddenly flashed a stunned light, a little confusion and a little fear. She suddenly took a step back and turned around and ran down the stairs, but hit her sister.

Why doesn't Tiamas understand what that look means?

How deeply it was love and how deeply it was hatred.

Her heart was hanging like a knife, and she had come to her two daughters one by one, embracing them in her arms. Lotus completely stayed, and Ling struggled for a moment. This strong little girl, even in the face of hunger and cold, cried out. Her crying was so tragic that even the left collar right house opened the door to visit.

When these people saw Tiamas, they suddenly understood something, because of Sy's orders, they knew where the sisters were coming from. The eyes of the elderly fell gently on the sisters, happy for them, and tears were shed by several women.

Dead spirits cannot weep.

But Tiamasbae felt the slightest temperature in her heart.

She could only whisper to herself.

“Sorry, sorry...”

……

In the early morning, the ice crystals of the branches have not melted. Soft snow landed silently on the ground, in a dark canopy, with occasional bird fluttering away from the canopy.

There were several people standing in the cold wind.

Tiamas looked at his two daughters with a keen eye, and three days seemed to pass. Before she could react, the moment of separation had come. How much she wanted to stay for a moment, there were things that were not meant to be her decision.

Lin and Lotus stood quietly next to Lord Lopal, the Lizard of Fireclaws, like two fine dolls. Lotus continued to shed tears for a moment, while Ling appeared much stronger. She died holding her lips, holding her sister's hand tightly, and staring at her mother with stubborn eyes.

Tiamas withheld his heart and retracted his gaze and said to Sy in front of him: "Thank you for all these days. Tell Brando I owe him a favor and I'll surprise him. ”

“Do I have to leave?” Sy stood in the snow, somewhat reluctantly asking.

“Sy, you're a good girl," Tiamas looked at this soft girl: ”I'm glad my daughters met you and Brando, can I entrust them to you? ”

Sy shook her head: "But what they needed was their mother, Ms. Tiamas. ”

Tiamas smiled reluctantly and looked bitter: “To this day, my last regret is my initial paranoia and narrowness, and if the time could come again, I would surely cherish carefully everything I had. Unfortunately, it was too late, and I chose this path, and now it can never allow me to turn back, and now I only hope that the path I chose will redeem my sins. ”

Her eyelids dropped and her eyelashes trembled slightly, making her feel very uncomfortable.

She took a deep breath and realized what she couldn't change before nodding: “I will, Ms. Tiamas, I will take care of Lin and Lian as my own sisters. ”

“Thank you, Sy,” Tiamas exhaled and the water vapor formed into a white mist that made her invisible: "These three days in my life are the best three days of my life, and I will always remember these days, my daughters - they will be different from me, and their future will be different from mine. ”

She took a step back.

Finally, I looked at my daughters.

“Try to come back alive,” Ruth said suddenly: "There is nothing unsolvable between Esis and Dusk, at least we must hope, Ms. Tiamas. ”

But Tiamas did not answer. She turned around resolutely, leaving nothing but a shadow of a cloak, and Sy saw her hesitate for a moment on the edge of the woods, but vanished into the darkness.

Lotus finally couldn't bear to bury her head in her sister's chest, whispering and crying.

Lin silently watched the scene.

Sy walked up to the two sisters, reaching out with infinite pity in her heart and touching her cold cheek, she could always find her shadow in this somewhat indifferent young girl.

The palm of the hand conveyed the temperature, and the mountain girl said softly: "From now on, we are family. ”

Lin looked up at her.

Silver eyes sparkle with tears.

“Is that okay?” Sylvie asked tenderly.

Lin bit her lips and nodded.

……

Countless Ironmen gather in several floods and pass through the mountain forests at night.

From time to time the light of the portal flashes across several hills, and more and more silver magicians are showing their shape. Above the sky, a group of stone statues are flying westward, at different altitudes, arranging several clusters of squares. After the Iron Man walked, it was a strange army, followed by a small number of Six-Armed Snake Demon Superintendents and the Wind Spirit whirring from low altitude.

Finally, the big earthquake shook up, and huge statues appeared in the woods, and these huge things walked in the valley, almost as high as the lowest hills.

Delphine watched the army silently on a nearby hill.

Bansia lies ahead, but the Bansians have defeated the army of Jiufeng - only the Sassards are left after the two armies converge.

“I didn't expect you to come.” She turned around and said to Phoenix Fire and Rookie. Look at the two people curiously: "Has the Ghost Car and the Yufeng family made up yet? ”

“There was some friction, but everyone agreed to join forces against dusk.” The Phoenix Fire replied softly: “This is the only time in centuries that the Nine Families of Jiufeng have stood together, thanks to Mr. Roach. ”

Delphine looks at Rookie.

“I persuaded the elders to return to Jiufeng,” Housch said after a moment of silence. "Although there is some resistance, I believe more in what I see. ”

Chancellor Kim knew that there must be more than some resistance, and that it was only after a few things that people were destined to grow up in such a short period of time - kill a lot of people, she sighed slightly.

In such an era, if the times cannot be changed, they are destined to be changed by the times, and why not?

There was some silence between the three of them.

Everyone is thinking about the question: What will people lose in this war and what will they get?

There was a noise in the bush behind them, which shook the three of them, and they turned around and saw Ms. Silver Dragon coming out of the woods.

Misserille's complexion is a little pale and doesn't look very good.

“What's the matter?” Delphine knew it was supposed to be the Dragons.

“Lord Bahamt is dead,” replied Mithril. "After this war, the Dragons may return to leave this continent, and I am here to bid farewell to you--”

Delphine opened her mouth slightly.

There is only an ambitious girl in this heart, but at this moment there is a slight feeling of different emotions in the heart.

……

The moonlight spilled over the woodland.

Metissa, standing by the sink, suddenly felt something in her heart, and when she saw the face in the water, her body suddenly froze.

She turned around almost trembling and looked at the person who appeared behind her.

Under the green gray cape, the face that had a certain divinity with herself, the holy and cold, the silver eyes looked at her silently, the look was always so faint, as if with a hint of natural arrogance; and when was the master-in-law of this face once the person she most dreamed of, the most sacred shadow in her heart, her elder sister, the great princess of the Empire.

That was a question that haunted her for thousands of years.

Why...?

“Sis... Sis?” The voice of the elf princess is a little shaky.

“Metisa. ”

“Is it really you...? ”

“It's me, before I leave again, I just want to see you. Brando should have told you," Tiamas' face is a little lonely: “I found something immortal, but I didn't think you didn't need it anymore...”

Metissa bit her lip.

But her eyes flashed with a glow of disappointment, shaking her head gently: "I don't want this, sister, you know. ”

But Tiamas did not answer.

After a moment of silence, Metisa asked softly: "On the Cold Cedar Collar, that night, was it you? ”

“Yes.”

“Why?”

“Eruin is too weak to watch you bury with some humans. ”

“Do you suddenly care about me?” Metisa's voice suddenly got excited: “But why didn't you do it at that time? Answer me, sister. You don't know, do you? ”

“No, I got your note. ”

Methisa's weak body trembled for a moment: "… are they telling the truth? ”

Tiamas nodded.

“- But why?” Metissa finally couldn't help but cry and she almost lost her temper and screamed, “I love you so much, sister, don't you know? ”

Tiamas took a unconscious step back.

She had never seen her own sister like this —— she was so brilliant, so talented, and in those days, the light overwhelmed each of them. But at this moment, White only felt his heart stabbed hard.

She realized how wrong she was.

“I'm sorry, Metisa...”

The elf princess covered her face, kneeling down and crying.

A thousand years of questioning has finally been answered.

Though there had long been suspicion in her heart, she was unilaterally reluctant to believe that her most revered sister had herself sacrificed her life. If all this is just a dream, then it must be the worst nightmare ever.

“I'm leaving, Metissa.” Tiamas looked at his sister and said, “I am glad to see that you have escaped your cursed destiny. ”

“I hate you,” Metissa raised her head and looked at the woman in tears: “Do you know how much I hate you, sister? ”

“I'm sorry, Metissa. ”

“I don't want to be sorry!” The little princess almost shouted, "Do you think you can make up for the mistakes you've made over the millennium by finding something immortal, sister? ”

Tiamas looked at his sister in silence and tried to speak, but could not say a word.

“Please stay, sister, if you want to make amends for me--”

Watching her tearful sister, Tiamas's heart shakes almost at all costs for a moment. A thousand years, a thousand years have left too deep a mark in her heart.

She walked softly to Metissa, embracing her sister, and whispered in her ear: "Metissa, I'm sorry, jealousy has clouded my heart, and now I regret it, but at least I haven't lost you forever -”

“… how I wish I could have the best sister in the world if everything could go back in time. ”

“Sister...” Metissa whimpered: “You still have her...”

Tiamas gently wiped her tears with his fingertips.

But she shook her head eventually: “But I was too late to wake up, Metissa, and there was no room to look back...”

“But why?” Metisa asked intermittently, "Wouldn't it be nice if you stayed? No one would hurt you, I would beg the Lord to protect you. ”

“No reason,” Tiamas stroked the silver hair behind her head with his hands, "I don't need anyone's protection either, Metisa, although he is a good man...”

“But I chose to leave,” she replied softly, “because I love you. ”

When I was awake,

I still love everyone in the world.

I chose to leave,

Because at the end of the road,

It will be all hope.

It's a poem that lasts forever in darkness.
