Chapter 1791 - The War Of The Griffons (Part 1)

"I was thinking. We don't really have much time. There's a war out there and your life force is cracked. We have yet to assemble the body-swapping machine and make sure that it works. If anything happens before that, it's over." Solus said.

"It's over for me." Lith pointed out. _{freewebnσvel.cøm}

"For us." She replied.

"Don't pull a Xenagrosh on me, Solus. I don't want to live with the burden of your life. Mine is already heavy as it is." He said while holding her tight.

"You are potentially immortal and I'm fine with it. I can't promise to be with you for the rest of your life. I can only promise to be with you for the rest of my life."

"That's more than enough for me." Solus said, falling into a sweet, peaceful slumber.

Solus needed time to get back to normal, but luckily, she had plenty.

A few days after Vastor's marriage, Ryssa the Dryad gave birth to Dhiral Manohar Marth. The baby boy had light green skin and blonde hair in his dryad form while black hair streaked silver all over as a human.

The baby wailed to announce his birth, ignoring his father's attempts to calm him down while Marth cleaned Dhiral and wrapped him with a clean cloth. At least until he heard his full name.

Then, he started to giggle.

"I can't believe this." Professor Marth said amid tears. "You really did it, Manohar. You beat even death. I warn you, if this is really you, Krishna, I'm going to beat your ass until adulthood."

"Duke, those are not the first words that a father should tell his son." Ryssa managed to laugh despite the strain from the labor.

"Welcome home, Manohar." Marth handed the baby to his wife, making him cry again.

"Shush, my love. Mommy is tired." She said, and the baby complied as soon as she put him against her bosom to feed him.

Lith laughed about it and so did everyone present, yet the fact that Dhiral Manohar Marth giggled every time he heard his second name and obeyed his mother, creeped them out more than Thrud.

The wedding and Ryssa giving birth were the only good things they enjoyed those days. The Griffon Kingdom was in turmoil and for a good reason.

The war against the Mad Queen which was now known as the War of the Griffons, was nothing like those that had preceded it and the rules of the game were completely different as well.

The two armies couldn't use the Warp Gates to invade the enemy cities because the connection had to be established from both sides at the same time.

The Royal override didn't help since Thrud separated the Gates from their power source until her troops needed to use them. She only held one-third of the Kingdom, yet time was on her side.
