"What the hell? Dragon Knights?" The soldiers questioned as they saw a group of Dragon Knights flocking around the city of Ereis Eisan. Another group of soldiers managed to head the group off and block their advanced. Each one of them assembled themselves in a formation would wouldn't allow Meira and her group to advance any further forward where they were armed with mostly swords and spears.

"Damn!" Meira exclaimed as she and the rest of her group stopped in the middle of the town seeing the soldiers had blocked their advance forward. She wasn't sure what to do since the only way to get passed them was either to go right through them or to take one of the alleys and find a side street that wasn't heavily guarded by Razhard's men. One thing for was for sure, getting out of the large capital wasn't going to be easy, but the people scurrying after Luther destroyed the bridge managed to block enough of the soldiers view where they couldn't see Meira and her companions.

Luther examined the area knowing like Meira that advancing forward through that heavily guarded now area was going to be impossible without taking casualties. He also noticed that the individual who invaded the castle earlier had caught up to the group. He was pretty sure that the King ordered the man to chase after them. With him being a magic user like Luther, he would provide problems for them. He also noticed in the sky that there were Dragon Knights that soared in the sky. They didn't bear the Guardia banner though and archers from Guardia were starting to array and were going to go on a counter offensive of those knights attacked. He did notice the golden shield with several golden stars arrayed in a v formation which indicated that these were mercenaries. Not only that, he knew that banner better than anyone. They were the Vashuna Mercenaries hired by the Windgracian nation. Perhaps his luck had paid off in using Razhard after all. He remembered someone telling him that his sister employed in the Vashuna Mercenaries so if those Dragon Knights were here, that meant she wasn't far from them.

Ranathia was concerned why Luther was buying his pretty time looking for another way. She looked over in his direction and asked him to speed things along. She then learned that he might have found his sister. She thought that was nice and all, but now wasn't the time to dawdle. Luther's hesitation allowed the soldiers along with the other man to catch up to their group. "Luther, what is taking so long?" She questioned once again wanting to know why Luther was taking his pretty time trying to find an alley for them to slip into. If he wasted too much time he'd give the Guardian Army time to surround them.

The soldiers that blocked their advance were suddenly bulled over in surprised by a reddish white winged horse that sprinted toward Meira's direction. It was her pegasus Scarlet and right behind her were her pegasus were her Pegasus Knights gliding in the air and another pegasus that ran in the direction of Siia and a black stallion that ran over toward Ranathia. Both Siia and Ranathia boarded their mounts and pulled themselves alongside Meira. Siia moved her pegasus toward Luther's direction and held her hand out where he grabbed it and climbed on. Ranathia did the same for Chloris who boarded her mount. While that was all happening a blue haired girl wearing skimpy bikini armor soared downward on her dragon meeting up with the group where she announced herself, "We are the Vashuna Mercenaries. Under Queen Erialyss orders we are to safely escort the princess. If any of you dare stand in the way of my group, you will be cut down!" She yelled as she drew her golden spear with a ruby in the center of it into her hand. Luther was relieved to find his sister, but would save his questions for later.

While Meira moved her pegasus over to lift Nathan up onto it she looked at Corraidhin then drew her sword into her hand. She wanted to know why he was working for the King when he was being controlled by such a horrible person. Her Pegasus Knights assembled around her where a purple haired girl asked if she was okay and she just nodded at the girl. She after she spoke to the purple haired girl on her white pegasus turned her attention toward the man she wanted to question. "Why is it that you fight for the King when he is being controlled by such a loathsome woman? Do you have no honor? That woman cares nothing about the people of this nation and only herself. Why be in the service to help that witch?"

"I am Meira Rystaliuskal and this sword is the Blade of Light!" She paused for a moment as she caused her pegasus to incline itself upward standing only on its two feet. "I am the Holy Elian Crusader of Euphoria. The sword I hold in my grasp is Meleitling. I am a Savior of the Radiance and Twilight and you will not stand in my way! If I cannot persuade you to change your alliance then I'll cut my way through the Guardian forces so that I can leave the capital! If you get in my way, I will cut you asunder with the thunder in this blade!" Meira yelled as she held her sword high in the air flashing it at Corraidhin. Her sense of leadership boosted the morale of not only her Pegasus Knights, but also the blue haired girl's Dragon Knight group.

"Princess Meira, we are yours to command." The purple haired girl said as she positioned herself around Meira's group to ensure that they would make it through safely even if they had to pierce right through the soldiers since Ranathia was riding a horse so she couldn't fly. "Same here." The blue hair girl added as she aligned her dragon knights with Meira's pegasus group. Lenna and her mercenary group positioned the dragons they were riding alongside Meira's Pegasus Knights.
