The War of the Three

I see KoL got the 700th post.

Why am I not surprised.

@TheWindel

Because you know me too well?

War Notes

It's a bit later than I wanted, but this post was harder to do than I was expecting. Either way, it's here. By the way, we will be time skipping to the evening soon, so if any of you wants to do something while it's still early, please say so.

Also, I'd like to tell that, as of this post, I've began to collect lore bits at the 0th IC post. If you wanna check it, just go back there. I'll try to keep it regularly updated.

Imperial Records #000

The Valys Continent: A great landmass composing most of the Known World. Valys is a land of sharp mountains, deep forests and vast plains the majority of which are very low populated thanks to the many dangers —both natural and not— that plague the land. Valys weather is predominantly temperature in nature and very humid thanks to the the large oceans all around it. Nevertheless some areas, like high mountain ranges, or isolated islands have climates and biomes unique to them.

A large number of beings inhabit Valys. Some of them are natural like wolves, bears and horses. Most of them are fearsome beasts which are said to posses incredible powers and that threatens mankind's everyday life on a constant basis.

However, men persevered. It created civilization and culture, mastered fire, steel and magic, founded nations that rose and fell to the inexorable tide of time. The Golden Era of Valysian men may have ended a long time ago but mankind still thrives on this land. Currently the three main powers which claim domain over the land are known as the Arcadian Empire, the Grand Duchy of Westris and the Alliance of the Free States.

The Empire: The Empire occupies most of the Northern Valys, a mountainous land of deep valleys and temperate forests full of natural resources which power the Empire's mighty economy. The very Northern however are a harsh land where few can prosper. Despite its riches, the fact that the Empire is plagued by dangers, both mundane and supernatural is the main reason why it hasn't succeeded in reunifying the continent once.

The Alliance: The Alliance occupies most of the Southwestern Valys, along with many of the maritime territories of the Valys Southern coast. Their lands are far poorer in resources to the Empire but have a better agricultural potential, allowing the many smaller states that comprise the Alliance to stand up with numbers that pretty much match the Imperial Army toe-to-toe.

The Grand Duchy: Of the three major powers in Valys, the Grand Duchy is the least plentiful of resources and population, or so is said, but they more than make up for it with intellectual and technological advancement. They occupy the high mountains and plains of the Northern Valys, nearly completely encircled landlocked, except for some bits of the North Sea's coast.

Arpeggio: The Capital of the Arcadian Empire and largest city in the Known World, with a total population of a little more than a million souls. The city is was founded —in fact, the older parts of it were carved— in a heavily defended mountain side, making it nearly impossible to siege. Arpeggio is a truly vivid and luxurious city unlike any other in Valys. It's perfectly cobbled streets, beautiful arched bridges and many ancient monuments dating all the way to the Empire's foundation are true treasure trove of mankind's history.

Orello: Fort Orello and its namesake village were located. Being one of the last remaining citadels of the Old Empire, originally build to thwart the lackeys of the vile Goddess of Strife, Orello is one of the Empire's most critical defense positions, standing right in the way of the Grand Duchy's forces.

The village of Orello itself is very well known through the most of the Empire for the quality of it's beer, made from their freshly clean waters, as well as for their sheep, whose both wool and meat are coveted as luxury goods.

Aquaria: Second only to the Imperial Capital in terms of importance, self-administered City of Aquaria is the trading heart of the Empire, it's no exaggeration to say that all of the Empire's treasures pass through Aquaria before reaching the Capital. The City of Water is also a major hub for enlightened, having the most advanced schools and academies, not to say anything of museums and the Grand Library, which is said to house a countess number of volumes in its maze like chambers. The Aquarian Royal Guard are the stalwart defenders of the city, known for their fierce determination and skill at arms, thought most of them aren't as magically gifted, unlike the Cadenza Knights.

Religion & Myths: A long, long time ago it's said that Valys was a land of peace, where mankind and their Gods, known collectively as The Thirteen, lived in peace and harmony. Under the rule of the Gods, mankind built its greatest civilization, the Arcadian Empire, which lived in a Gold Age of peace and advancement far beyond that of today's world. However, the Goddess of Strife grew tired of the other Gods' complacency, tricking them, stealing their divine essences and, eventually, killing them.

With the power of all of Gods together, the Goddess of Strife wagged war against mankind, building an army of dark and twisted creatures. It seemed like men were doomed, falling like flies before the mighty of the Goddess, only thing they could do was pray and try to survive.

Mankind's prayers were heard by The Three, who came to their aid. Some say that The Three are mighty archangels left behind by the Fallen Gods to safeguard the world in case of disaster, other say that they are beings of immense power —dragons, perhaps— created by the Goddess of Strive who ultimately grew a consciousness and challenge their Mistress besides mankind. Yet others say that they were neither, but humans who, somehow, achieved the greatness necessary to lead their armies to victory. The Three are said to have imparted, some say they have in fact sired or gave birth, to the first Vessel Bearers. To this day any who can manifest a Vessel is regarded as a physical manifestation of The Three by the most superstitious.

Regardless of the truth about The Three, it's said that, with their aid, humanity finally could push the armies of the Goddess of Strife back and defeat the Goddess herself. However, she was too powerful to be destroyed. Instead of that, it's said that the Goddess' divine essence was divided in thirteen parts and sealed away in the distant reaches of the world to never be seen again. It's still a common belief between certain natural philosophers and historians that areas with unnatural concentration of monsters and old ruins may indicate the places were such remains have been sealed. Nevertheless, the danger posed by such a research keps it out of reach of any rational scholar.

ORELLO

---

The break time at Orello seemed to be far more enjoyable to same of the Cadets than it was to others. Some minds can't be changed even when put under a life or death test. Well, the Cadets couldn't be blamed for this. A frontier fort in the middle of nowhere is a place to dump soldiers to rot. Obviously it couldn't properly accommodate the glamorous Cadenza Cadets.

In fact, it was a discussion over these very matters that sparked a brawl in the mess hall as a duo of overworked soldiers began to discuss over whether the Cadets were welcome on the fort or not. It was up to any nearby Cadets to decide if they would interfere with it or not.

Those who chose to stay at the appointed lodgings or close to it would be able to witness a whole distinct event.

A night patrol had just returned to the fort from the opposite side of the the mountain range. They seemed tired and battered by the inclement weather, all of them except a girl that looked about their age, dressed in the uniform of the Aquarian Royal Guard.

The City of Aquaria: Second only to the Imperial Capital in terms of importance, self-administered City of Aquaria is the trading heart of the Empire, it's no exaggeration to say that all of the Empire's treasures pass through Aquaria before reaching the Capital. The City of Water is also a major hub for enlightened, having the most advanced schools and academies, not to say anything of museums and the Grand Library, which is said to house a countess number of volumes in its maze like chambers. The Aquarian Royal Guard are the stalwart defenders of the city, known for their fierce determination and skill at arms, thought most of them aren't as magically gifted, unlike the Cadenza Knights.

"Stand aside, everyone, we have men who need help here!" The girl said in a demanding voice despite not seemingly being in a commanding position. She stood tall in her toes, puffing her chest, even as a battle-scarred bear of a man wearing a Sergeant's insignia came to her demanding explanations as to why their patrol was so battered. A good eye would be able to see that the half a dozen group were suffering from frostbite and bearing marks that made it seem like they had fought against some kind of wild animal.

"With all due respect, I don't have time to answer your questions, Sir! Those men need help and they need it now. If you ae not going to provide it, then stand aside!" the girl said in a brazen act of defiance.

The situation escalated quickly as the Sergeant heaved his hand back, ready to strike the girl's face with a backhanded blow. "First there's those Cadenza brats demanding a whole lodging just for them. And now we're forced to play bitch to Aquaria as well? I'm going to teach you brats to follow the hierarchy!" The Sergeant howled, leaving a swollen red mark on the girl's face as she stood there with arms extended, shielding her squad.

"Are you done already, Sir? If so, stand aside. They don't have all day to be wait until they can be treated," the girl said, still defiant, despite the very bad bruise in her face.

"You little cur!" the Sergeant yelled, reaching for his sword. "I'll have fun having my way with you in the dungeon, once I'm done here!"

None of the Orello soldiers who were looking at this scene seemed willing to move a muscle to stop this fight as well. Just like the brawl on the kitchen it was up to the nearby Cadets to decide if they would do something regarding it or not.

"Wait," Minato said once Clara began sprouting even more weird lines. How come she doesn't know about even such things as to what's a computer or even a motorcycle? "Are you really so much into this cosplay, or did you live in a cave for your whole life?" He asked but then shrugged right after. "Whatever, it doesn't really matter. I've seen bigger weirdos before, either way."

"Beginning from your first question," Minato said still standing beside Clara. "I don't know what you've heard but we do wear Western clothes, the thing is that only Goth lolis wear that kind of getup you have there. It might not be a problem at the City, but countryside people might look at you in strange ways."

"JSDF are the military, that's not something you need to worry about either way. That was just a joke. There's no way they'll pop up out of the blue like that."

"As for this," Minato said, rubbing a hand at his bike just like it was his own child, "It's a motorcycle. I can either spend the time to tell you what it does, or I can show it to you," he added, smirking.

"So, what's gonna be?" Minato said, offering his hand to help Clara get on.

The War of the Three

@KoL Does Eos still have the Anti-Portals up? :D

@The 42nd Gecko

Yes, she won't deactivate them until the battle is over.

By the way, I added a couple lines for Hohenheim relating to Artoria.

The War of the Three

Ciel

"Fufufu... Wahahaha!" Taura burst in a fit of hearty laugh when Unit-T not only got back to it's feet but also got a hold of one of her horns. "You really won't give up will you? Even when I used like ten percent of my power to fight you, you still keep coming up. Damn, you really are the real deal," the Bull of Heavens said. Taura easily dragged Unit-T with her as she doubled over, trying to get a hold of herself.

"Anyway, I think I've done enough here today. If I keep going this wild, I'll get a hell of a chewing when I'm back home," Taura said. The diminutive powerhouse seemed to be in a rather good mood, despite Unit-T literally rending the air with her rage. "Let's call it quits for today, ok? Now," Taura grabbed a hold on the hand that was pulling on her horn, "why don't you go help your Boss fight her battle!" And so was it, with a spinning throw from Taura, Unit-T would find itself crashing inside KC-00032, landing right on the side of the iceberg where Artoria still stood.

Taura on the other hand disappeared back to the ether she came from. Not only did she have her share of fun for today but, more importantly, is she got back home late, there would be no end to the sermon she would get from a far more fearsome and grumpy lizard.

Eos

"" In face of the Demons' willingness to comply to her demand, Eos pulled the trigger. The light infused bullets shot at point-blank distance would pierce any possible defense, literally making it cease to exist, even in the minds of those relying on them. If hit by it, the damage from the shot would be enough to rip a hole on even a massive behemoth like Grafdaka or Balrog with easy. Additionally, no matter if hit by this attack, they would find a gaping hole not only on their bodies, but also on their memories, events of importance suddenly disappearing as if hey had never existed.

"The Angel's gave up on their offensive," Eos said as soon as Unit-T crashed into the middle of their battle and Taura left the battlefield. "All remaining units, destroy the remainder of the Demon forces without mercy. Leave no prisoners, this is a command of your Queen," Eos said in a commanding voice, ordering the Machina forces to finish this fight once and for all.

Following up with her order, Eos disappeared from the path of the axe thrown at her, causing Fran's attack to target her own Demon allies. "Apart from the Blood Countess, you are the one that caused us the most suffering up to now. It's about time you pay for your sins," Eos said as she reappeared behind Fran already in the middle of an diagonal slash, aiming at the rapist Demon's back. Whether she hit or no, Eos would follow up her attack with triple shot at Fran, using the recoil to propel herself backwards. The android finished her assault landing over a catwalk five stories above the factory floor and slicing at the chains that supported a crucible, dropping tons of molten metal on Frans head.

Hohenheim

"Oh my, what we have here?" Hohenheim said once she saw not only what trick Eos pulled out but also a certain experiment that she set loose a long time ago and never expected to see again. The sight of Artoria using what looked to be a downgraded copy of the Leviathan and Taura's powers made Hohenheim smirk.

Such a smirk would be followed by Hohenheim teleporting inside of KC-00032 and finding a place to sit cross legged over a broken pillar right above the battle field. Hohenheim could get in with ease regardless of Eos' blockade which was natural given the Alchemists status as a being of a higher order. "So, that's where you've ran to?" Hohenheim said, her voice echoing through the factory's innards. "I see that you still haven't realized your true potential... not that I've had the time to finish you before you escaped, whatever. This might not mind at all, by the way. After all I doubt that you'll even keep on existing, if you choose to fight their Queen after she drew that trump."

"Either way, it'll be a good show. Please keep going, I'm dying to see what'll happen of this battle of wits," the Alchemist added, before bursting into a fit of maniacal laughter.

I was under the impression that I had been approved? But if not, I can remove him...

@thewizardguy

Now that you've already done it, you can leave it there. Just be sure to make any changes we may call for.

@KoL: *sweatdrop*
I think that given the cast it's more likely to become a field of lilies lol.

@PKMNB0Y

That's not a bad idea either.

Geez, now you made me remember that Nero is Atalanta's #01 fangirl, this can probably get very hot and messy.
