"Is everything prepared?" Circe asked as she walked down a hallway with Drakoth.
Around two weeks had passed since she sent Zion and the Holy Empire the declaration of war, and they were now making sure every little thing was perfect before they launched their invasion.
Drakoth nodded. "Yes, our army is back up to full strength. They're stronger, in fact. Also, we've deployed the Dragon Wardens just like you commanded, and we have our scouts keeping an eye on things in the Holy Empire."
Circe smiled, rubbing her hand against her husband's arm. "Good. You know, our children wish to take part in this battle as well. Of course, I declined, but their dragon spirit is just like yours when you were younger."
He blushed, remembering his past as well as the many ways he attempted to court Circe until she finally accepted him.
"Ahem, they are just full of energy. I do not wish for them to lose their lives in this battle."
