Trail of Tears

With in a week of his release the Demon Dragon Zyr had brought his amry in force against Bei Shir. The best defenses the Genevan Army of the South could muster were put in place.  Well fortified and defended positions well trained troops and even volunteers from the native population to plug in where needed.  The defenses held despite ever growing numbers of demons rallying to his cause.  Through his old temple, now made into some sort of Abyssal gateway, wave after wave arrived to serve the Vegeta.

General Reinier was a man of faith, courage and strength. Despite the murmuring of the people and the troops questioning the Keepers directive to let Zyr escape, he never wavered.  The Keeper had ordered and so obeyed.

Serif was still trailing the Demon they had code named Jagger.  He was elusive with his ability to jump bodies but he had found him.  His orders were just to keep a tail on him unless he was forced to act. Reiner just wanted to know where he was.  That worked fine until Jagger took over a Colonel and started giving field orders, orders that would have openned the defenses to attack.  Serif emerged from the shadows and denounced the demon.  "this is not the colonel its a demon." The soliders were silent while the colonel responded, "that is a bold accusation." There was a moment of silence followed by a sgt in the back continued, "no he's not, I am." Then there was silence before another man said, "tiiiime is on my side." Silence another spoke, "yes it is." Silence then another man lept at Serif weapons drawn. The struggle was only a moment before the skilled assasian finished the attacker. Rolling the dead body to the side Serif jumped up. Silence and he saw another officer resting his hands in his collar wink at Serif...silence... Then Serif spoke, "here are your orders from the general..." He instructed as he rested his hands holding his lapels.

The defenses easily caved as zyr struck exactly the right spots in the line. As the general saw his men start to fall he orderred a second line of defense.  Zyr himself crested the ridge and with magically amplified voice proclaimed, "I am here for ganondorf.  He has betrayed me, once he is dead, I will leave you in peace, for vegeta is the bringer of peace. "

Despite reiniers objections the crimson king walked out to meet him saying the virtue of love compelled him.  Kneeling before zyr he pleaded, " I turned to you in desperation.  the virtue of nobility demands I expound the truth of the virtue of wisdom, I must pay for that but let my people go."

"Your people can join me or die."
In one fluid motion he swallowed the crimson king whole then released a tidal wave of sand heat and fire into the battlements." The battle was heated reinstate held faith until he saw entire platoons of his men fall to control and compulsion.  As the lines buckled and demons started to poor into the city reiner summoned the crimson princess, "we need to evaciate, I can't hold the city." She replied, "this is our home."

" it is no longer their choice, I'm orderred to protect them, I can't do that here, mages have teleport gates set up, well hold them as long as we can get your people out." "As long as the virtues live on, hyrule lives it does not matter where." The.people of bei shir followed a trail of tears to their new home in the forests of enron, where the previous attacks of maximus had left empty cities to start anew.
