Master Of None



Faced with more than just a war made both the Fel angel and the Rize angel stop their attempts to argue. It was very clear to them that they would lose the majority of their people. Not that they would lose them to a war but they would lose them to another empire. 

Genesis was standing there offering open arms to those that wished to leave and never return to the Sigil continent. It wasn't blatantly said, but seen as there were already soldiers, common angels, and a few of the leading captains that had met the Genesis forces. 

They had seen the battles and how the opposing angels might not be so drastically different. There had been arguments, but with Genesis forces there, it had been pushed toward learning about one another. 

The thing that had stood out to these angels the most were the times they saw the Genesis forces speaking and learning about one another. All of the genesis forces were still new to one another. Their different races made it very clear that they liked different lives with different traditions. From that alone, the angels felt that they could ask things of their opposing empire that they may neve have had the chance to ask before. 

The seemingly small actions had started something that had begun to affect both empires at a much deeper level than either of the angels that claimed to represent their people had understood. It had started a massive desire to leave behind the empires entirely if they would go to war and continue to cause the deaths of those the common people loved. 

When the two representative angels understood this fact, they understood that the last of the foundations they thought that they had to stand on was gone. It had left the moment that their strict ideals and grown hatred for opposing ideals lacked the power to keep the weakest of the angels with them. The angels that numbered the most. The angels that had not been allowed to grow because of the constant fighting and strict laws. 

"You have heard what my party leader and the core founder of Genesis has said. You know what you must do and what you must not do. But for the moment, take it in. This is the last time you may ever think about the angels you might lose to war between your fellow angels. You may not like what they believe. You might even hate it. But you are all angels and without one another you are not angels at all." 

The simple but calm statement from Su echoed through the silence of the entire embassy. It seemed to echo more than normal as Ventus had ensured that Su's words were spoken so that all could hear them. That level of wind manipulation was child's play to Ventus who was certain in the words that Su had come to speak just now. 

"As we speak, that corrupted city is floating away. We lack the information about that ruin that might help us. We don't have the number of angels that were brought back from the dead with corrupted mana. We don't even know what kinds of weapons that the city might still have that now are used by the three demons we have to defeat. So what should we be speaking about now?" 

It was the finishing move from Walker that made the angels start to move. Some stepped away from the space they sat entirely. It was clear that their beliefs had won out and they were leaving behind their positions. But they had no heart that told them they should fight. Instead, they had the feeling that they had to leave. But that was better than pushing forward with their current negative ideals. They were wise enough to see that they had to leave or they would cause more pain. 

A few of the guards that had been here in the embassy their entire lives looked at the Genesis forces and followed suit to join them. Emblems were scratched out and they took places around angels they had known their entire lives. It was an odd feeling, but they appeared to smile enough to prove that they finally felt free. There was not a single bit of pressure to hate one another when they had seen the same guards from their opposing empire for years without issues. 

"The masters of the elemental halls refuse to give in our halls to the outside forces. We will bring full force-"

"Arrest and strip every hall elder that stands against the current situation. Send them to the wilderness and let them begin building villages for the people they have forgotten. The people we have forgotten." While the worlds were loud until the end, it was clear that the elder angel that went by Rize was able to understand the position that he was in. 

For the last ninety eight years, I have been the angel to look to. The grand pure angel that also governs the elemental hall of fire. I miss the days when all I needed to worry for were the books in my hall." Rize spoke softly. But everyone heard. 

"From this moment I declare that the Rize empire is no longer in name, powerful. The suggested creation of the new angelic empire of Sigil will be born of this day of this time of this people." 

"Oh? This experiment has progressed rather interestingly. I will not hand over my entire empire, but empire is a strong word. The Fel empire and name are more closely resembling a group than anything. Our numbers are a tenth of what they had been due to research and the fact that our villages do not even communicate at all times."  I think you should take a look at

Fel, the angel that represented the entire empire shattered the Rize empires' and even Walker's perception. He had known that the Fel empire was weaker, but so much that it was hard to even communicate at all. 

"At this day, as the last one to go by the name Fel, in the hopes of continuing the research of many generations and lives, the Fel empire will accept the proposal. The future experiment, the angelic Sigil empire project can begin planning phase now." 

This appeared to just be the way that the Fel empire was. They were experimental and sounded a little stiff, but they were speaking true. They did not want to lose everything because they had researched for more years than they could count. They had broken in to topics that the rest of the world had barely touched. Yet, they had also lost some of what made them angels. They had become too focused on research that they feared they would evaporate in to nothingness. 

While some angels in the room were clenching their fists, the feelings of defeat climbing in to their hearts, others looked free. It was the first time in many generations that the word war was not going to be used between angels. It was only being used against one group of demons that were more easily called monsters than anything else. 

"Then let me be a little forward." Walker channeled a little mana in to his words before taking a deep breath. 

"From this point on, Genesis is witness and ally to the newly formed angelic Sigil empire. As an ally, it will create a method to trade between both continents. Genesis will support the growth and the learning of every race within the empire. The echidna and the Wyverns will be represented equally within the empire and within Genesis." 

"From this point, Genesis will welcome the sharing of knowledge and the visitation of angels to their ancient ruins that are being researched by the genesis research forces. Genesis will also look forward to the uncovering and research of the ancient dragon burial grounds so that the dragons may see their past which was lost to them." 

The promises could go on and on, but Walker kept it short and simple with some of the main focuses being set out. 

"Finally, Genesis calls for the newly gathered ally to join them in uncovering, preparing, and attacking the corrupted city that is attempting to take over all the power of this world. To ruin the flow of existence as a whole. Genesis calls on all its allies to join them and bring everything to the true path it should travel." The echidna warriors all reacted with a slam down to the ground with whatever staff or weapon they had. This was their pledge to assist the world as well. Just as they had been born to do. 

Even with everything said out loud, there was a small bit of tension in the air. Some would say it was the sudden seriousness, others would say it was the tense changing of times. But what Walker felt was a soft bit of mana praising all of them for avoiding a war that would have ended the angels completely.
