A History of War
Life is difficult enough for a Lirian soldier. Training for ten years, hunting evil deimos, solving crimes, facing powerful weilders, keeping the peace in a tension-filled world, each Lirian soldier has a lot on their plate. It doesn't become any easier if you have to deal with a dark past that looms at every corner. How will Lais Felix and Helen Song, two best friends with tragic pasts, handle life as soldiers while running from their past? Will they manage to escape their tragic beginnings? Or will the past finally catch up to them?
The Children of Marelirium
LAIS
I tread the frozen trail carefully, making sure to mind my footing. Even with the winter being a month behind, this place here is still frozen. And cold, still so freaking cold. Honestly, if it weren't for her, I wouldn't be found traversing this icy terrain when I have the option of enjoying a nice, warm sleep tonight.
Still, I can't just let her be. She's probably not feeling so well right now, not after the incident with those two brothers. She can be a bit sensitive about the said issue, it's all she's allows herself to ever be sensitive about.
After a long freezing walk, I finally reach it, the place where I'm sure she'd be at. It's a collection of outcropping rocks soaring up to fifty feet in the air, all forming a circle, surrounding a pool of frozen water.
