[color=gray]Underground Fighting Ring[/color][/right][hr][indent][color=FCFC26][b]"You speak a fool's words,"[/b][/color] The Zenith replied, closing her eyes softly for a brief moment. A battle hardened empire would be needed in the future, yet their vigorous anger was focused in the wrong place. [color=FCFC26][b]"It seems you still have much to learn. Wishing to avenge the fallen is a shining virtue, yet it also blinds."[/b][/color]

[color=FCFC26][b]"Do you think I am without anger for the Lover's atrocities? Without disgust or desire for vengeance?"[/b][/color] Lucille exclaimed, striding towards the two youngsters that had been brave enough to speak against their ruler. The Zenith locked eyes with the two students, her gaze paying no heed to the masters that stood behind them. [color=FCFC26][b]"I could lead you all to battle right this instant, but what am I to do with a people that remain unprepared? Do you know how to conduct warfare on an open field? What about ensuring supply lines stay open, so the army doesn't starve and collapse into disarray?"[/b][/color]

Sighing, Lucille shifted her demeanor to something more [i]motherly[/i]. These youths were under her guidance, and she would be the one to mold them. They would learn in due time. [color=FCFC26][b]"Battle will come eventually, but first, everything must be ready and in place."[/b][/color][/indent]
