105 Onset of battle (3)

Standing atop the walls of the expeditionary settlement, Shelise looked out at the sea of savages below. Everyday she would come and stand atop the wall with Eneran at her side. There wasn't much else to do, so she could only wait in boredom. She wouldn't stay on the walls for long and would leave well before any attack took place, but she couldn't help staring out at the horizon daily. She knew it would come, it was only a matter of time.

As she glanced towards the horizon, her emotions would always swirl like a maelstrom in her heart. The memories of her past, her family and her home, constantly stirring her feelings of sadness and despair. This would also fill her with rage and the desire for revenge.

"I will kill it with my own hands."
