Ling stared at the people in the distance.
Several girls stumbled to pick firewood in the woods by the avenue. They wore thick cotton coats, their faces flushed red, but laughter came from time to time.
The greatest and most real damage to a country in a short time by war is the reduction of the young and middle-aged population. Alluin has experienced too many wars in just three years. Men have been on the front line in batches. Only the elderly and women are working in the fields.
But even in the most difficult times, people will not give up hope of optimism. In the winter of this year, more than 130 babies fell on the fir collar, and for each family, these children symbolize the future.
In the distant land, the snow has wiped away the traces of war, and buried all the hurt and ugliness under the white snow. The seeds of weeds are quietly waiting under the snow-covered soil, waiting for the spring of the following year, turning this place into a vibrant land.
The tenacity of life is sometimes small.
In the distance is the upright figure of Valhalla. The lush green leaves are like an emerald even in winter. It is rooted in the land and slowly absorbs the magic under the ground. A thin layer of sparse clouds on the horizon set off the red glow of sunset.
"sister."
Ling turned back.
Lin wore a black fur coat, gold buttons, and a furry collar. Her white face was soft and soft, and her silver hair hung softly behind her head, and put it inside the hood. Qian, who brought her over, squatted down and watched the little girl tenderly, straightened her collar with her hands, and said to the two, "I'm leaving first, Mintai City has a lot to do, and I'll be back tomorrow Look at you. "
Lian nodded smartly.
"Ling, take care of your sister."
Ling nodded silently.
"Sister Qian, we know you are busy," Lian replied childishly. "We will take care of ourselves, thank you."
Qian smiled, and her red hair reflected the light of the setting sun. She held a spear and held Tolian's face with her hand, and looked at Ling with some concern. Then she reluctantly straightened up and turned around in three steps. The ground went into the forest. Before leaving, he finally waved back to his sister and motioned them to go back soon.
Lian watched the back of the mountain girl disappear into the woods, and her face became lonely again: "Sister, are we going to find a mother?"
Ling nodded.
"Why does mother leave us?" Lian asked. "Is it because we did something wrong?"
Ling grabbed some cold hands of her sister and shook her head.
Lotus lowered her head.
In the distance, several young girls collecting firewood have joined the city.
Twilight was getting darker, and there were lights in Valhalla. In residential areas, the voices of mothers are calling for naughty children to go home, smoke from the roof is cooking, and occasionally a few or two uttering sounds come from the house. Orange lights sprinkle the silhouette of a warm family on the road. People are on their way home quickly, and the crowd-a sister holding her sister's hand firmly, constitutes the whole of this mutilated family.
In the distance, a woman looked at the scene silently, holding one hand against the wall, and unknowingly caught her fingers in the masonry.
"Why don't you meet them?"
"You don't understand," Tiamas Bai said lightly to the little man on his shoulder.
"Why don't I understand," Rutter replied, "aren't you just afraid?"
"I'm scared, so what?"
"But you are their mother, do you know how long it took them to find you in Madara, how much they have suffered for them, they are just two little girls, Ms. Tiamas-they are yours Daughter. "Ruth didn't know where he was angry, but he just felt he couldn't be indifferent.
"I will leave after all."
"How great, after all, I want to leave, I know what you're going to do, isn't that the she-wolf?" Ruth said, "But since you're leaving, why are you here again? After all, I still want to see my daughters Is n’t it, but you saw them, but they didn't see you. "
The fairy prince turned around and looked at the woman: "Don't you be afraid to face death, but in the end you are afraid to face your daughter?"
There was a slight movement in Tiamas' silver eyes.
She also looked back and looked at the little guy: "It's only been a long time with Brando's guy, and you've learned what that guy can say?"
"I didn't bother you because I had fought side by side." Rutter snorted, and didn't overdo it.
The wind is getting colder.
The sky began to snow.
This snow seems to be buried in this world. Goose feather-sized snowflakes dye the world white.
Ling turned the key and opened the door, just to tip her toes to light the hanging lamp by the door-but she stopped suddenly, staring at the bright lights inside the door. In the young silver eyes, a sudden flash of misgiving light flashed, a little doubt and a little fear. She suddenly stepped back and ran down the stairs, but collided with her sister.
Tiamas couldn't understand the meaning of that look.
What a deep love and a deep hate.
She was as keen as a knife, and she had come to her two daughters one step before and embraced them. Lin was completely stunned, and Ling struggled a little. The strong little girl didn't even say a word in the face of hunger and cold, but at the moment she cried out, her cry was so miserable that Both the left and right houses opened the door to visit.
When these people saw Tiamas, they suddenly understood something. Because of Akane's advice, they knew the origin of the sisters. The eyes of the older people fell on the two sisters tenderly, and they were happy for them, and some women even wiped their tears.
The undead cannot cry.
But Tiamasbai felt a slight temperature in his heart.
She could only murmur to herself.
"sorry Sorry……"
...
Early morning, the ice crystals on the branches had not melted. The soft snow fell silently on the ground, and in the dim canopy, there was occasionally a sound of lingering birds fluttering away from the canopy.
Several people stood in the cold wind.
Tiamas looked at her two daughters with nostalgia. It seemed as if the three days were passing by. Before she could react, it was time to leave. How much she wanted to stay a little longer, but there were certain things that were doomed to her.
Ling and Lian stood quietly beside Ropal, the Firetalon Lizard Lord, like two delicate dolls. Lin kept crying for a while, and Ling looked much stronger. She squeezed her lips tightly, held her sister's hand tightly, and looked at her mother with stubborn eyes.
Tiamas resisted the perseverance in his heart and retracted his gaze, and said to Qian in front of him: "Thank you these days, help me tell Brando that I owe him a favor and I will give him a surprise. "
"Is it necessary to leave?" Akane stood in the snow, asking a little bit unbearably.
"Qian, you're a good girl," Tiamas looked at the soft-hearted girl: "I'm glad my daughters can meet you and Brando, can I entrust them to you?"
Akane shook her head: "But what they need is their mother, Ms. Tiamas."
Tiamas smiled reluctantly, and his expression was very bitter: "To this day, my last regret is my paranoia and narrowness. If time can come back, I will definitely cherish everything I have. Unfortunately, I have It's too late, I chose to go this way, and now it can no longer tolerate my turn, and now I only hope that the path I choose can redeem my sin. "
Akane lowered her eyelids, her eyelashes trembling slightly, and she felt very uncomfortable.
She took a deep breath and realized that she couldn't change anything, and then nodded her head: "I will, Ms. Tiamas, and I will take care of Ling and Lian as their sisters."
"Thank you, Akane," Tiamas exhaled, and the water vapour formed a haze, making her look unclear. "Three days in the fir collar were the best three days of my life, I will always remember this time, remember my daughters-they will be different from me, and their future must be different from mine. "
She stepped back.
At last I glanced at my daughters.
"Work hard to come back alive," Rutter suddenly said, "Esis and Dusk are not so terrible. Nothing can't be solved. At least we must hope, Ms. Tiamas."
But Tiamas did not answer. She turned resolutely, leaving only a shadow of the cloak to the crowd. Akane saw her hesitating for a moment at the edge of the woods, but disappeared into the darkness instantly.
Finally, Lin couldn't help burying her head in her sister's chest and weeping.
Ling watched this scene silently.
Qian came to the two sisters, reached out her hand with infinite compassion in her heart, and touched her sister's cold cheek. She could always find her own shadow in this somewhat indifferent girl.
With the temperature passing through the palm of the hand, the mountain girl said softly, "From now on, we are family."
Ling looked up at her.
Tears flashed in the silver eyes.
"Can you?" Akane asked softly.
Ling bit her lip and nodded.
...
Countless iron men converged into several torrents, walking through the mountains and forests at night.
Lights of portals flashed from time to time on several hills, and more and more silver robe mages were showing their figure. Above the sky, hordes of gargoyles are flying towards the west, and several cluster squares are arranged at different heights. After the Iron Man passed, it was a strange army, followed by a small number of six-armed snake devil warlords and the wind spirits whistling from a low altitude.
Finally, the ground shook, and giant figures appeared in the mountain forest. These behemoths swayed in the valley, almost as high as the lowest hills.
Delphin watched the army silently on a nearby hill.
In front of it is Bancia, but the Bancias have been defeated by Jiufeng's army-after the two army merge, only the Sasard are left.
"I never thought you would come," she said, turning to Phoenix and Fang Qi. Looking curiously at the two people: "Have the ghost car and the Yufeng family been reconciled?"
"There are still some frictions, but everyone agrees to join hands to fight against the dusk." Huang Huo replied softly: "This is the only time for the nine families of Jiufeng to stand together for hundreds of years. Thanks to Mr. Fang Qi."
Delphin looked at Fang Qi.
"I convinced the elders to return to Jiufeng again," Fang Qi said after a moment of silence, "Although there is some resistance, I believe more in what I see."
The prime minister knows that it must be more than just some resistance. It is destined that only by going through something can people grow up in such a short period of time-kill many people, she sighed slightly.
In such an era, if it is impossible to change the times, she is destined to be changed by the times, why not?
There was some silence among the three.
Everyone is thinking about the question, what will people lose and what will they gain in this war?
There was a sound from the bushes behind them, and the sound alarmed the three of them. They turned around and saw Ms. Yinlong stepping out of the woods.
Miss Riel's face was a little pale, and she didn't look well.
"What's wrong?" Delphin knew it should be something from the Dragons.
"Master Bahamut is dead," Mithril replied, "After this war, the dragons may leave this continent. I am here to say goodbye to you-"
Delphin opened his mouth slightly.
There was only an ambitious girl in her heart, but she felt some strange feelings at the moment.
...
Moonlight sprinkled in the woodland.
Suddenly, Melissa, standing by the pool, felt something. When she looked at the face in the water, her body suddenly froze.
She turned almost tremblingly, looking at the man who appeared behind her.
Under the gray-grey cloak, the face that looked a little like himself, holy and indifferent, silver eyes looked at her silently, the look was always so indifferent, as if with a hint of natural pride; When was the owner of this face used to be the one she most admired, the most sacred shadow in her mind, her elder sister, the princess of the empire.
It was a question lingering in her mind for thousands of years.
why--?
"Sister ... Sister?" The elf princess' voice was a little murmured.
"Metisha."
"Is that you……?"
"It's me. Before leaving, I just want to see you. Brando should tell you," Tiamas looked a little lonely. "I found the immortal, but I didn't expect you to have no need……"
Meditha bit her lip.
But her eyes flashed with disappointment, and she shook her head slightly: "I don't want this, sister, you know."
But Tiamas did not answer.
After a moment of silence, Metissa asked softly again, "While the fir collar, that night, was that person you?"
"Yes."
"why?"
"Eruin is too weak, and I don't want to watch you bury with some humans."
"Did you care about me suddenly?" Meditis's voice suddenly excited. "But at that time, why didn't you make a shot? Answer me, sister, you didn't know, right?"
"No, I received your stationery."
Medicia's weak body shuddered: "... what are they saying?"
Tiamas nodded.
"--Why?" Finally, Medicia couldn't help tears coming out of her eyes, she almost lost her state, and roared exhaustedly: "I love you so much, sister, don't you know?"
Tiamas stepped back subconsciously.
She had never seen her own sister like this--she was so excellent and so talented, and in that era, the light on her had overwhelmed each of them. But at this moment, Bai only felt that his heart was stabbed severely.
Then she realized how outrageous she was.
"Sorry, Metisha ..."
The little princess covered her face and knelt down, crying.
A thousand-year question finally has the answer.
Although she had doubts in her heart, she was unilaterally unwilling to believe that her most revered sister had killed her own life. If all this is just a dream, then it must be the most terrible nightmare.
"I'm leaving, Matisa." Tiamas looked at his sister and said, "I'm relieved to see you get rid of the cursed fate."
"I hate you," metissa raised her head and looked at the woman with tears in her eyes. "Do you know how much I hate you, sister?"
"I'm sorry, Melissa."
"I'm not sorry!" The little princess almost shouted, "Do you think you can make up for the fault caused by this millennium, sister?"
Tiamas looked at her sister silently, trying to speak, but couldn't say a word.
"Please stay, sister, if you want to make up for me--"
Looking at the tearful sister, for a moment, Tiamas almost shaken desperately. For a thousand years, a thousand years left too deep marks on her heart.
She walked softly to Matissa, hugging her sister, and whispered in her ear, "Metisa, I'm sorry, jealousy has blinded my heart, and now I can't regret it, but at least I haven't lost it forever you--"
"... if everything can go back in time, how I wish I could still have the best sister in the world."
"Sister ..." Matissa sobbed. "You still have her ..."
Tiamas gently wiped her tears with her fingertips.
But she finally shook her head: "But I was too late to wake up, Matisa, there is no room to look back ..."
"But why?" Matissa asked intermittently, "Is it okay to stay? No one will hurt you, and I will beg Lord Lord to protect you."
"No why," Tiamas stroked her silver long hair behind her head. "I don't need anyone's protection, either, Melissa, though he is indeed a good man ..."
"But I choose to leave," she replied softly, "because I love you."
When I wake up,
I still love everyone in this world.
I choose to leave,
Because the end of the road,
Will be everything hope.
It was a poem, eternal in the dark.
