Adora clenched her right fist as Dral closed his eyes before sighing and he looked at her then smiled and she nodded after which he glanced at the others and some of them braced against the wall, waiting to hear everything.
"I was the leader of the Malactric's personal, family guard, I was supposed to be the commander of his army, but I refused to do it because another job was opened, they needed a guard, one to be there for their family in case anything happened," he said and they all looked at him.
"You were like a brother to him, if I am right, at first he didn't want you to give up things to protect him and his family, right?" Yaron asked and Dral smiled then nodded.
"Yeah, but I talked to him along with her and he allowed me to take the job and appointed the one below me the commander, but despite that, I felt like I was also the commander since he always told me to give them his orders, he was one complicated guy at times but that's what made him great," he responded and Yaron nodded with a smile on his face.
"Not too long after I was appointed their guard, his wife gave birth to their son, the heir to everything that was once theirs, this land, the one who was more than just a pure blood, was him, the heir, his parents loved him more than anything else in the world, his birth brought a lot of happiness into their lives and the people," Dral said.
"He doesn't know his story, does he?" Alix asked and Dral glanced at him and a gentle smile appeared on his face.
"No, he didn't, he had a slightly sad life, even though he didn't, but, today, even he will know, he will be shown to you guys, it's been long enough, right Adora?" Dral asked and Alix glanced at her.
"Yeah, you are right, it's about time and once it's done, everything will be in his hand, not any of ours," she responded.
"I won't say that so fast, you have all been travelling similar paths, we will see what happens, the leaders and their son along with the people, lived happy lives for quite some time, there was nothing but smiles on their faces but on that night, everything came crashing down," he said as he lowered his head.
"Dral..." Yaron mumbled and Dral sighed.
"On the night of the celebration, their attacks reflected on the surface of this land and in the eyes of those whose lives were lost trying to defend everything they stood for, trying to defend their family, everything they loved," he said as he clenched his right fist.
"I left off when the fight went in the opposite direction," Adora added and he nodded.
"We were all fighting, including the queen with the child strapped to her, I was by their side, when the leader of the enemies used his powers against us even more, pushing us back and gaining the upper hand, people from both sides began losing their lives to each other within the blink of an eye," he said.
"We stood our ground and kept on pushing back, but the attacks were getting worse and we protected all the remaining citizens and when the leader realized that having the people there would hold them back from fighting, he sent the citizens away with a few strong warriors."
"Did the ones you guys send away survive?" Ayden asked and Dral nodded.
"Yeah, it's why we are still here today, because of the king's decision or there won't have been a single trail of us on the planet today," Dral responded and Ayden sighed.
"The fight damaged a lot of things and the king placed his wife and child first, he ordered her to take his child and leave and she was stubborn at first, but he convinced her and she promised to make sure, no matter what, their child would live and I sent the woman who was in my life with me to take care of her."
"When they left, a few men who were stronger than the normal ones, went after her, the woman with her was just a normal warrior without any sort of powers, but she was great in combat, she and the queen fought alongside each other, managing to kill off a few of them," he said before exhaling deeply and Kyris looked at him.
"Slow down a bit, take a few deep breaths, you cannot force yourself too much, no good will come from it, we are all here, we can wait for a little and hear piece by piece, I am going to be finished soon, some of your wounds were deep," Kyris replied and Dral smiled at him.
"Listen to him, Dral," Adora said and he nodded.
"Okay, I will," he replied as the others exchanged glances and some didn't want to hear anymore but at the same time, wanted to know what more happened.
After a few minutes, Dral exhaled deeply then he looked at them and a gentle smile appeared on his face then he sighed and Alix glanced at him before lowering his head.
'Why is all this feeling so familiar?' he thought and Adora glanced at him.
"While we were fighting, more of them went after the queen and the woman, they kept on fighting but the queen got slightly injured and to protect the woman that was with her, she knocked her out and hid her behind a tree and kept on running, the men followed her alone," he said and they looked at him.
"While I was fighting, I was shoved a bit away from the leader and then the leader of the enemies appeared before him, the energy that came off of him, it sent shivers up people's spines, I saw the look on the leader's face when he saw the one he was facing, I couldn't see the face due to the position I was in, the look on the king's face though..." he said.
"Dral, what was it?" Adora asked.
"The look on the king's face that night seemed as though he knew who the leader of them was..." he responded and the others looked at each other as Adora stared at Dral.
