9001 [Novus Era 30]
Sextilis 26
Location: Crag Mines
People have started to make their way to R18, a strategic location where the Corite army can regroup and attack the Accrecian army with full force. “Everyone to R18 we will attack ACC” a firm voice said out of my Telecom device, who I immediately recognized as the archon. With my shield on my left hand and my Sickle knife on the right I went with the flowing numbers of cora.
The Bishop hugged me as she finished blessing me. “As of now, you are a full pledged corite Ryone. Please, do your best to keep me and DECEM proud”. Her body was very warm and comfortable that I felt like I was hugging my mother. “Would mother be proud of me? Would father be too?” I uttered thoughtlessly. “Of course they would!” The Bishop reassured me. Tears rolled down my face, this might be the last time I’ll use this tears for I have promised to be a shield and a shield shouldn’t show signs of weakness. “Thank you! Your Excellency!” It was all I can say as I erased every bitter memory of my journey, so that I would become a strong shield. A shield to protect Cora and DECEM, they we're now all that I've got.
“We should go now Ryone, we still have many things to do” The bishop said softly, I wiped my tears off and prepared to go back. “Before I forget, have this Ryone...” The bishop handed me a necklace, it was a gold plated with a water-like ornament and a butterfly with initials “BS” “This is a necklace from your mother, who was once a member of the Guild ‘Butterfly Storm’. I think it is appropriate to give it to you as you are her child.” I felt nostalgic when I had a hold of the necklace; it was like mother beautiful and elegant but also warm and loving. “Butterfly Storm is a legendary guild of skilled and talented corites that were very loyal to DECEM. Though they were made of people from different factions the guild was inseparable.” The bishop took a breather and then spoke once more “A shield can protect but it cannot conquer its adversaries, Ryone make friends with other corites and build up your own circle; for no corite is an Island”
I stepped on a black ore as I have finished dashing to R18. There were heavy puffs as all around me because the archon said that we should make haste and form an offensive line before the accrecians can build up a defense. There was still 10 minutes on the clock before the chips’ shield would be lifted up for the Chip war. There were no signs of accrecians on the field, just an army of corites. “Okay listen up, it seems like the accrecians have abandoned their posts; this would be a good time to give our all at the chip. As soon as the shields have been lifted I want everyone to hit the chip...” The Archon’s voice was clear and there were no signs of fatigue from all that running. “Still, keep your eyes peeled for any hostiles. This will be a great day for DECEM!” he added with a roar.
“HIT THE CHIP NOW!” the archon shouted but it was a bit late for as soon as we saw the time went down to 0 every corite was now focusing their attention at the chip. Flames went out of casters’ wands’ and a barrage of arrows was hitting the chip. Warriors were bashing the chip with their spears and swords. I summoned Ezra and immediately just like the last chip war she hit the chip with zeal. I let out my spear as I too joined to hit the chip and destroy its cover. After three minutes the archon said “ACC 20%, a little more cora and we will have Accrecia’s chip!” The necklace that the Bishop gave me made a thud as it hit my armor and it made me feel a bit uneasy. A bullet went straight to a corite marksman’s leg and pierced his flesh. A second later, a corite shouted “Bellato! The Bellato is here!” I looked at the pointed hand of the corite and followed its path to the right side of the chip. The Bellato army was now on the right side of the chip and preparing to attack our army. “CORA! Regroup to R18 bring the wounded with you!” The archon said with haste. Another corite was slashed on his back as a goliath Black MAU swung its massive claws on the corite’s body. I rushed to get the fallen corite, but a dark priest created a portal and went in with the corite on his arms. “Cora! Regroup to R18!” the archon said once more.
I was ready to join the regrouping army when I saw a familiar face. The scar on his face was the same as it was the last time I saw it. It was the captain of the squad who was supposed to execute me along with my family. I felt blood gushing through my veins, I never felt so angry in my whole life. I poised for an attack but, Leith who saw me held my arms and said “We should go Ryone, we have orders.” I knew that she felt my rage and it would be foolish to attack a whole army of Bellato all by myself so I retreated with the others.
The necklace was as cold as ice when I felt it touching my skin. As though it was trying to relieve me of the heat which was caused by seeing that person.
The Bishop hugged me as she finished blessing me. “As of now, you are a full pledged corite Ryone. Please, do your best to keep me and DECEM proud”. Her body was very warm and comfortable that I felt like I was hugging my mother. “Would mother be proud of me?

Your Excellency!” It was all I can say as I erased every bitter memory of my journey, so that I would become a strong shield. A shield to protect Cora and DECEM, they we're now all that I've got.
