After fighting non-stop for a long time... I finally left the battlefield and returned to my room, as usual. Time was really moving faster than ever. I didn't care so much about anything except succeeding that I could barely keep track of what was happening anymore. I was in and out of battle, the day started and ended at the same time, things were happening too fast... Still, at least when I came out of the battle, I could relax, even if only for a brief moment. The only time I took time to rest was…-

I couldn't tell the North Holar everything I knew about Project Durandal directly, they would ask me where I got such secret information and they would suspect me. So I had to hear everything about the project from them first. That's why I wanted to be involved in the project. Only in this way could I reveal everything I learned from the game. And it worked out the way I wanted. After I joined the project, they told me everything they had done so far, and I learned as much as possible about the…

A lot had actually happened in the two days after the battle. And yet... I never found myself completely immersed in it, it felt as if it had all happened in a matter of seconds. Every moment, every second, the image of Gurdas was in my mind. The glow in his eyes that faded every second, the huge burn on his chest, the way he just smiled in his last moments without saying anything... Maybe he just smiled at me at that moment, but he also said a lot of things to me with that smile. He thanked me,…

"No... No, no, no..." I knelt down, forgetting all the madness that had taken over my mind minutes ago. I placed my hand on Gurdas's chest, focusing without a second thought on the blue flames. Blue flames whose only function was not only to burn but also to heal. 'Aiden...' My palm was covered in blue flames, and not only that, it slowly covered the huge burn mark on Gurdas' chest. The wound was so bad and so deep that it was a miracle he had survived at all. Whatever had hit him, whatever…

When I realized that the dwarf could withstand the enormous pressure with a small chance with his fourth barrier, with only a few centimeters between us, I tilted my head to the left against the spear and pulled my left hand to the right. Just like the vacuum that formed on it, another vacuum formed, this time on my right side. The tip of the spear deflected and turned toward the second vacuum. The dwarf's eyes met mine just as his last remaining barrier was about to break. Still, I took no chances.…

It was much worse. It was a hell of a lot worse than I thought it would be. When the call to battle came last night, when I was with Gurdas, I knew that we would hardly be able to defend, I knew that many people would die, but... I didn't expect this. The defense started before the sun had risen and continued until noon of the next day. And it was still going on. Robots, soldiers, rockets, spells, bullets, and all sorts of things were coming from all sides. The screams echoed in my ears more…

After the General's image disappeared, a deep silence filled the room, broken only by the voice echoing in my mind. 'Aiden... are you sure you want to do this?' I looked at the tiny figure of Sith floating in front of me, then sighed. 'I'm not, Sith, I'm not. Sending someone to their death for my cause is not something I would do if I had no choice. But... this war has gone on too long, and if we don't end it soon, there will be many more casualties. So... I have to do it.' Sith looked at me…

I waited a short while before opening the door I was standing in front of. It didn't take long though, and soon I reached for the door, sighing slightly. The door opened and the first thing that hit my face was a cool breeze. Two bunk beds on the sides of the room came into my field of vision, followed by the three dwarves sitting between them, who turned to me as I opened the door and looked at me in surprise. "Aiden?" I smiled, waving slightly. "Well, hi." Gurdas, Rulhan, and Durvan…

"Aiden Tenebra..." With my hands behind my back and my head held high, I gave the military salute. On the one hand, I held myself perfectly. "Corporal Aiden Tenebra, yes, sir!" The dwarf in front of me let out a deep sigh and brought his hand to his face. Then he narrowed his eyes. "Ya reckon ya got a sense of humor, huh...?" A slight grin appeared on my serious face for a moment, and then I let out a short laugh. I dropped my salute and looked directly at the face of the dwarf in front of…

The first few seconds after passing through the gate were peaceful and calm. It was as if the whiteness and silence that covered my entire vision was almost begging me to relax my body for a moment. Nevertheless, I held my sword tightly in my hand. I did not let my guard down. So, after these few seconds of calm... the first thing that caught my attention was a very loud noise. Something exploded right next to me. My world, which was just beginning to lose all its brightness, suddenly turned white…
