Gaining Ground.
(*Nia’s POV*)
Mena, despite this being her first time actually commanding an army in a war, did spectacularly well. It’s been a little over a week since she joined the war.
As for my thoughts on Celia missing, I think that it’s a good thing. Sure, I miss my wife just as much as the rest of us do. But, assuming that she survives Hell, which she definitely will, this is a good chance for us to grow as people.
Yona, Solia, Amelie, and the rest, including me, have become far too dependent on Celia. Her not being with us, well at least for me, it is the most painful thing that I have ever experienced. And I once died in a pretty messed up way…
I don’t know what the others think, but I, for one, think that putting all this pressure on Celia is wrong. Celia doesn’t exist just to make our lives better. Yes, she had drastically made our lives far more happy and enjoyable, and will definitely continue to do so in the future, but is it right for us to cling to her this much?
A little bit of clinging is fine, but me, and the rest of us, well, it was like our time freezes whenever she isn’t around. It took a lot of pushing the others, and myself, to even continue this war. To us, what was the point if Celia wasn’t here with us?
It might upset Celia if we stop being completely dependent on her, as pampering and loving us is clearly something that makes her life worthwhile. Which is the key reason why we have become like this. How could you not be dependent on someone like Celia?
Celia came into our lives, well, for me, I came into her life, and just earlier than planned, but my words are still true. Anyway, Celia made us happy, that is all I can express with my words, as she has done things for us that putting into words would just degrade or lessen.
We all had this conversation, which was what kicked us into gear to finish this war before Celia gets back. Until now, or rather, a while back when we had that conversation, we didn’t realize how dependent and addicted we were to Celia.
It is impossible to stop completely, but we don’t really have to. We just have to accept when Celia can’t be here with us. Besides, when she can, she practically spends the entire day with us. Which is another thing we plan to fix. Rather than getting her to do what we want, we need to ask her what she also wants to do as well.
I find it odd, thinking about such things, as I behead an annoying old foolish king, of some random kingdom whose name I don’t recall at the moment. Staring into his lifeless eyes, I then crush his head completely, as his eyes were nothing like Celia’s which angered me, much to my own embarrassment.
By now, we had taken over most of the kingdoms on our war path. Casualties are still at a very minimum. No civilians have been harmed by our kingdom, and we have captured each soldier that stood against us. Of course, not counting high ranking military members, as killing them was important.
In total, not counting the kings, around a thousand people have died. In a war on this scale, if we didn’t care about being good, we could have easily killed a few hundred thousand people at this point.
Winning the approval of the people was quite easy as well. Every kingdom that we took over, was then given control over it to the living queen or princess of said kingdom. It’s not like we have that many people on our side to rule places, so making some puppets is a good idea.
They’re rulers in name only, and will only act upon Yona’s orders via her secret private military force. All of which were conveniently given the blessing of the Elves by the Elven princesses on our side. Not to mention that they’re very strong by default already. Add being invisible on top of that, and they’re a very scary force to deal with.
Celia doesn’t hate men, that was clear to see, but Yona clearly hated men a whole bunch. The male captured soldiers, were still treated well, but the female ones weren’t even locked up, and they were basically treated as guests in our camps.
If they wanted, the female soldiers could claim citizenship of our kingdom, and head backwards to the stable, already captured kingdoms. Solia gave me a good reason for why Yona hates men so much, which was that she once assaulted by one while being a child. This is the key reason to why most of the people in her kingdom are mainly women.
I think this to be somewhat wrong, but at the end of the day, she isn’t torturing or killing men for no reason at all. She is long lived, and will eventually stop doing such things.
And I have no intentions of stopping her, as it isn’t a problem. The captured kingdoms were given no such demands to be a female only place, it’s just her main kingdom that is like that.
Yona did have a very scary plan, though, which was to get Amelie to research the magic in Celia’s dungeon that turns people into women, and then spread it out across the entire world. I am a lesbian, and women are great, but such a plan was insane.
Talking to her, she didn’t eventually decided to not go through with it. Her reasoning for such a drastic measure, was because she didn’t want something similar that happened to her, happening to us at all. I reassured her that something like that would never happen, and that if she went through with that plan, Celia would be disappointed in her.
Yona then acted like a scared little girl and begged me not to tell anyone about her plan. Ria probably knows, but not even Yona’s wife, Solia, knows about the scary plan that she once considered.
Thankfully, this only happened a little over a year after we started living at her castle. With love and care, I’d say that she had mostly gotten over her hatred of men. Sure, the female soldiers were pampered, but the men weren’t treated horribly, either.
They were fed good food, and were each given a nice calm, peaceful cell, with a soft bed. Each of them were even given books to read while waiting the war out.
Once their kingdom was successfully taken over, then they would be given freedom. If you’re wondering if those princesses and queens would ever betray us, then don’t worry. Ria had her underlings uh… train?… Them well, so there won’t be any problems.
With a sigh, I cleaned up by hand the little mess I made, but via water magic. If you make water move fast enough, it can clean anything, and then rip apart anything into unseeable tiny pieces. Which is what I meant by cleaning.
As of now, we luckily don’t have that many more kingdoms to deal with. As I have just taken over this one, four left remain to be taken over by us. We made very good time, so we should be able to solve this whole problem before Celia gets back home.
That is, just assuming that the Elven kingdom doesn’t take that long to capture. It shouldn’t, as all of us combined, fighting one kingdom should be a breeze. Though, the last few kingdoms have been annoying, as Amora has gotten more and more desperate with each one we take over.
As I leave the kingdom that I have just taken over, I head to the next battlefield. Frankly, what keeps me going, is seeing the look on Celia’s face when she gets back and realizes that we already finished the war. Just imagining it gives me chills…
