Rhunâs heart was full regardless of how battered and bloody his body remained. After he freed his people, they had assured him that there were only four Olg left to watch them. That was the name the enemy used to call one another by or at least that was what it sounded like in the survivorsâ ears.
His wounds were attended to by his wife, who pressed her lips to his own and around his face multiple times as she washed and cleaned his wounds. Rhun wasnât complaining. There were two dozen survivors altogether who had been captured by the small squad of Olg left behind to watch the city. In this number were a pair of soldiers Rhun didnât recognize.
The group huddled around the fire now, the former prisoners half in shock at what had happened to their city, half in awe of how they had been rescued. The pair of soldiers scavenged food from the city as Rhunâs wife told him the story of what had befallen their city.
âAfter you left, there was hole in my heart the size of a shield,â Rhunâs wife, Cara, told him. âI know you had to go to avoid more bloodshed and a civil war that would have ripped our city apart. You did the right thing. I knew youâd return to me. In the years after you left, I was treated like a traitorâs wife. They gossiped and looked down on me, but none of that mattered. I kept my head held high and waited for your return.â
âThere were many of us in the new army being assembled that pushed back when you left,â one of the two soldiers spoke up. She was tall with a tight braid down the back of her head. âThe House and the senators called you a traitor, but we knew why you left. You had the support of many in the army.â
Rhun nodded along with the words. He had expected as much. Instead of interjecting, he let the story continue.
âThey rebuilt the army over the next five years then insisted on marching out into the desert.â Cara picked up the tale once more. âThe entire army left, including the new Alpha Centaury, his centurions, and the militia behind them. Not one of them came back. What did come back in their place were the legion of Olg. With only a skeleton unit of soldiers remaining behind, the walls fell quickly. They ravaged the city like a plague. The few of us you see here managed to hold out in a cellar, but it was only a matter of time before they broke in. When they caught us, we were thrown into the cages you freed us from.â
âI think they were keeping us for their own amusement, maybe even to experiment on in the future,â the other soldier said, a tall lanky man in his late thirties. âIf it werenât for you, weâd have suffered a fate worse than death. Thank you.â
Rhun nodded, taking the chance to
