The Great War of Rhodesia

11. Troubling

In the evening Aksa and Nata gather in the front room of their tent at the bottom of the Star Alcove ravine with Lily, Val, Rafa, and Luque. Talking about the problem from this morning, Nata immediately asked Lily.

"Are you still finding out about the people who were collecting the Scion bracelets, Lily?" ask Nata then from the sofa next to Val.

"We. I mean I, Miss Yvvone, and some of the Yllgarians and Elves who started coming to help in these five years, are still trying to track and investigate the movements of these people." Lily answered from her seat in front of the laptop desk right next to Luque. Faced with Aksa sitting across the table.

While looking Rafa was standing in front of the furnace at a doorstep. I was preparing tea for them all.

"There are more Yllgarians and Elves coming to this place?" Aksa seemed excited to hear the information.

"really. We have three new clans now living in the Sekai forest" Lily replied later.

"That's what we can talk about later. Now tell me about those people, Lily," Nata cut off before the conversation began to widen.

"They're always one step ahead of us. Because according to the information that Miss Yvvone got, now they've not only got all four Scion bracelets, but they're also starting to get the crystals." Lily began to explain.

"Everything?" Nata asks while receiving a glass of warm tea from Rafa. The girl had already started handing out the glass filled with warm tea to the others.

"According to the information they just got three. So two more crystals are lacking until Alta Larma is completely reusable" Lily replied.

"They're still continuing their search in the last five years?" chirps Aksa then. He was the last to receive a warm tea from Rafa, before the girl sat down next to him.

"It is likely that they have conducted a search long before this" Nata said. "If we consider the war in the Estrinx region to be related to this, then it is likely that they have been searching for the bracelet for eight years or even more."

"Who are these people? Dedication once," said Aksa while shaking his head in disbelief.

"The question is what is the purpose of collecting the bracelets? What will Alta Larma be used for?" said Nata who looks very disturbed by things that he did not understand.

"What is clear is definitely not just for collectors," said Aksa Samhil sipping warm tea from his glass.

"Because this has become a quite troubling matter, then since two and a half years ago I and Miss Yvvone tried to bring this matter to the other Elf Clan, too, also some of the Yllgarian clans may be protecting the crystals in secret" the little rabbit said in a serious tone.

"To inform them that someone is targeting these objects, and ask them to increase their awareness of the possibility of an attack" Lily added later. "Obviously those people can't get it."

"So the big parties have started to move. Good if that is so. I feel a little calm." Nata did not really look calm and relieved.

"You look worried. Are you suspecting something that might be connected to those people, Nat?" This time it was Val who asked after observing Nata's facial expression.

"Just a hunch. But it seems like something is wrong is happening in the Elbrasta region right now" Nata replied later.

"What is it about the reason why Elbrasta has not carried out an attack on this region for the past five years?" Aksa answered with a guess.

"really. The noble upheaval that had occurred within their kingdom was too strange to be able to endure for these five years. Biila was unintentionally kept that way." Nata reveals his deduction.

"But what was the reason they did that? Wouldn't it harm the kingdom itself?" Aksa asked.

"That's why I feel this is such a weird thing. But you guys don't say this to Lucia or anything. At least in the near future. It will add to their burden."

"You might have a point." Suddenly Lily spoke while looking to remember something. "Because at the time of the attack that took place in Central City five years ago, there was a Glaive who came with him" he said again.

"Who is Glaive?" Nata asked.

"They are a group of dark magicians. They live in the West of the Old Forest.

"Wow. Dark Assassin has finally appeared as well" Aksa chirped after hearing the explanation from Lily.

"Oh, I remember. They took part in the battle of the Black Flame a hundred years ago as the protective forces of the king of Bruixeria." Luque suddenly chimed in. The girl looks small.

"really. For they are the battle called the Black Fire." Lily confirmed Luque's remarks.

"What is Bruixeria?" Nata was again confused by the names and terms that kept popping up in the conversation.

"Oh, have I never told you that?" sela Aksa later. "Bruixeria was the royal name of the Tyrant King in the Black Fire war. The king's name was Rei LeBruixa" he explained later.

"Oh, so. And you think Glavie has something to do with Elbrasta's kingdom?" Nata continued his question to Lily.

"I thought they had something to do with the southern kingdom. But after a second thought, there was no way Glaive would listen to the nobles or kings of those small kingdoms.

"So there must have been someone with great power, or perhaps a descendant of the kings from a hundred years ago, whom they acknowledged and heard.

"And now the remnant of the king of that time is only the line of Elbrasta." Lily closed her long explanation.

"Isn't Lucia the original descendant of Elbrasta, then why would they be ordered to attack this place and injure it?" Nata asked again.

"That was just my guess. I don't know why they attacked this place. But seeing everything that is happening is the closest thing," Lily replied.

"You may be a descendant of the king of Tyrant who gave the command?" chirps Aksa gives another possibility.

"It is possible, even if the possibility is very small. Because all the descendants of the king of Bruixeria were wiped out with the fall of the kingdom," Lily answered.

"Cutted, huh?" Nata spoke with a glaring look through the furnace next to the entrance.

"Then what are you planning to do after this, Nat?" ask Aksa later.

"Immediately prepare to face whatever the Scion bracelet collectors have planned," replied Nata then turned his gaze towards Aksa.

"That means you have to solve the problems in the region, Nat."

"really. Tomorrow I'll make sure of Lucia again."

"But by the way, where have you been bathing all this time, Ra? I don't see any bathrooms around this tent?" suddenly Aksa asked Rafa.
