AngelsCompanion
Briana is a duke's daughter who's been on the battlefield for almost a decade. After ten years of battling, what she comes back home to is a run away younger syster, whom she has to replace in an arranged marriage. "Father! How can you do this to me? All I ever asked of you was an a few years older, soft-hearted, husband who faints at the sight of blood! Now you want me to marry a younger bloodthirsty man, who also happens be our houses enemy? Have I not dealt with enough enemies?" "It is his majesty's orders! Did I tell you syster to run away? No! What do you think should we become traitors? Do you expect our entire house to die because you want a cute husband?" "Yes! I don't care!" "Guards drag Briana to her room! Servant! Servants! Make her look like a decent lady! Her carriage will be here in one hour!"

The Next General

"Have you heard of him?" A small boy tugged at a woman's skirt, his tiny finger pointing at the large portrait of a man clad in a minister’s robe. "Shhh! Don’t say its name!" The woman hushed him, glancing around anxiously. She knew the boy was only curious about the drawing, yet the inscription beside it spoke of someone else entirely. Still, the credit had been given to the man in the portrait. "Why?" "We just... don’t say it." "Are you talking about The Next General?" A man dressed as a scholar interjected, inserting himself into the conversation. "Everyone is talking about it. After a hundred years, it has returned. I can't decide whether that fills me with hope or dread." His words were meant to impress, to showcase his knowledge, but the woman only tightened her grip on the boy, scooped him up, and hurried away like a hunted animal sensing danger. The scholar let out a single sharp laugh. "A chaotic rhythm… and marvellously extraordinary times are upon us," he murmured, before turning and walking away. --- Disclaimer This is a work of fiction.
