The Story of the Wind Wanderer

The Story of the Wind Wanderer
Emergency Situations #155


A handsome man had black hair, and with the prince's formal attire was white. He was Welt, and he was currently standing right in the middle of his palace courtyard, and nearby there were two princes from the kingdom of friends who came with reinforcements in the form of troops numbered more than tens of thousands of soldiers. The three handsome men seemed to be chatting a lot of things, and of course everything was a serious conversation, seen from their expressions that tended to be sharp and cold when the conversation took place.


But the conversation of the three princes of the three different kingdoms came to a halt when the sound of a bang was heard, and was sourced from the sky. The three of them looked up at the sky of Zephyra in the South, and were able to witness the strange-looking natural phenomena occurring there. Clumps of smoke or clouds black with lightning striking purple color is visible, in between the darkness the clump also looks green and red light smoldering like a fire.


"What happened there ...?" muttered Xavier, looking amazed and surprised at the strange events in the sky.


It seems that not only the three of them witnessed the natural phenomenon, but all the soldiers and people in the capital also witnessed the same thing. All the activity in the capital paused for a moment, everyone looked in awe mixed with confusion and fear towards the same sky.


"What do you think, Welt?" asked Prince Azura, standing right next to Prince Welt who was still looking confused at the natural phenomenon. Because the sky seemed darker since the black clouds appeared, and showed some strange light in it.


TAP ... TAP ... TAP ...!!


"I'm sure it's a sign from nature for us to prepare because the enemy forces must have started to move," a woman's soft voice and footsteps rang out, walking from the palace's wide-open entrance, stop right behind Welt. The beautiful woman was Queen Caitlyn, and she had also witnessed a natural phenomenon that was also witnessed by everyone in her kingdom, even that strange scene in the sky could still be seen even though it had already passed by several minutes.


"Greetings, Her Majesty the Queen." Greet the two handsome princes of the neighboring kingdom, bow their heads and pay their respects to Queen Caitlyn who was present there even without the crown.


"Welt, the war is in sight, the darkness is closing in on the capital, the king is falling ill, and our people are in danger. According to the rules, the highest position is now in my hands, but I can't do it alone." Queen Caitlyn spoke with bitter intonation and trembling eyes looked seriously at her eldest son, "i need your help" she continued with sincerity and gentle intonation.


Still do not know what will be faced, what the figure of the enemy forces, and how many they. However Welt had made up his mind, he looked deeply at his mother who looked puzzled and said, "secured the castle fortress ...!"


"Azura, Xavier, position your troops 300 meters in front of the South gate of the capital fortress ...! The rest of the plan will follow when we are already on top of the capital fortress. For a while we cannot expect help from kingdoms outside the continent, until they really come," continued Prince Welt, immediately took the decision and sent some directions to his two friends and his mother.


A blond man named Xavier, and his black-haired friend named Azura. They nodded in understanding, before then taking quick steps to leave the palace grounds.


Now there is only Prince Welt and Queen Caitlyn or her mother. The black-haired man looked deeply at the mother's two irises and said, "don't leave the castle fortress whatever happens ...!"


...


Standing above the large gate of the entrance to the fortress of the Southern capital. Welt looked at the vast grassland before him which was filled with armored and well-armed soldiers. There he was not alone, Prince Azura and Prince Xavier with him, monitoring the positions and formations of an army of more than tens of thousands of people.


"Our total army is around 40,000 soldiers, it includes a team of magicians and archers" Prince Azura said, standing to the right of Prince Welt.


"It's very risky, Welt. How do you control this enormous mass?" xavier asked, looking back, and seeing the large number of people who were herded and guarded by many soldiers of the Zephyra Kingdom to get a little closer to the Castle Fort.


"In this kind of situation everything must be risky, Xavier. Whatever it takes, I'll do it all that long for the safety of my people." Prince Welt answered the question, very calmly, and coldly.


Prince Welt pointed to several positions on the side of each line of soldiers who had lined up on the field and said, "position the cavalry on each side, respectively, put some magicians on the Western and Eastern hills, and some archer squads at the highest position."


Numerous cannons, balistas, stone throwers, and several more weapons that appeared to be deployed, were all positioned in each of the ranks of the soldiers. The front row seemed to be filled with thick-tailed soldiers, followed by spearmen in the second row, and several archers in the third row. In addition, many sword-looking warriors were deployed at an infinite number, they filled around the archer ranks, and were still reinforced by many cavalrymen on each side of the formation. Some of the hills outside the royal fort also seemed to be occupied by many witches as well as archers who would maintain a higher ground position.


The Alliance army of tens of thousands filled the meadow like ants. Prince Welt calmly looked at the formation of the joint force. The strength of the army that can not be underestimated, coupled with a large number.


The wind was blowing increasingly faster and slowly changed direction, which had previously been blowing from North to South, now the direction of the wind was turning around. The sky to the South looked very dark, dense, and colored with several flashes of blue luminous lightning. A very inhospitable natural atmosphere occurs in the South.


"How's Altezza doing? Didn't you receive any information about him?" azura asked, turning her head slightly and glancing at the figure of Welt next to her.


Prince Welt was silent for a moment hearing the question. He lifted his gaze slightly towards the sky, looked at the sky above him which was filled with dark clouds and replied, "i don't know, but I'm always sure that he will be fine, and it'll arrive at the right time."


"The natural phenomenon up there .. is still visible," said Xavier, looking up at the sky, looking at the black blob with purple flashes of lightning still visible up there.


"In addition to purple, I see a green color behind that dark veil," Azura timpal, looked in the same direction, saying, and you can see several flashes of light green light that appears from behind a plume of black smoke up there.


The Zephyra prince's gaze returned to the front, watching the terrifying dark scene in the Southern sky as he muttered expectantly, "hurry back, Altezza."


***


The white horse's roar rang out, running in the middle of the meadow very quickly heading towards the East. A man with silver armor and a sword hanging at his waist. The black-haired equestrian knight was Kenan, and he received a special duty from His Majesty to ride away from his country. The special duties included emergency duties, with the aim of finding and bringing Prince Altezza home.


"Your Majesty, where are you ...? Come back, Zephyra needs you" muttered Kenan, looking ahead, clutching tightly to control the pace of his horse with both hands.
