Chapter 50 Part 5) North American Alliance
🕑 Added 2024-03-18 23:51:58 +0000 UTCInside a large meeting room at the base on the beach, the current king of dragons was sitting at the end of the table facing Desaray, who was on the other side of the room. Around her were her generals. To his side were the other leaders of their respective races. “What was the death count?”
“Roughly one hundred lives were lost. The overwhelming numbers were just too much, even for my own people, which accounted for fifty percent of the losses. But even this number is just too much. When the Demon Queen of Darkness and the Demon Queen of Death regroup, Juna and I will lead the army from the front and wipe out everything we can. I held back just in case the Demon Queen of Darkness made a move, but now I know this was the wrong decision. She is too careful. She is very smart and will not show herself easily. She is also wary of Juna’s roots, so we can not get too close to her position. But that does not mean we can’t narrow down her location. I think the best option right now for us is to group ourselves and do two things. One, we will find the Demon Queen of Darkness’s location, and second, we will wipe out all undead in one go while advancing.” Desaray laid everything out in front of her.
“I understand. So we are now going to expand our territory?” The dwarven king asked.
“Yes. We will be expanding territory here, but it will belong to all of us. This will be alliance territory. So, all resources will be shared. Those who can use the resources the most will be the majority of it, but what is made with these resources will be fairy distributed to all kingdoms. No one has any issues with my decision on this, right?” As the most powerful person in the alliance, Desaray had the main say on what was happening. The other leaders had no way of saying no to her.
“We dwarves will be sure to help each kingdom has the means to protect itself. Since we will be sharing this land that means our alliance will extend past this battle, correct?” The dwarven king asked. Everyone turned and looked at Desaray.
“Of course, I am always willing to have allies long term. I think we all work well together. As long as no one tries to break the peace between kingdoms, I see no reason why we can not form a long-term alliance between our kingdoms. Each of us has had our own disagreements, I am sure, in the past, but now we are all fighting for the same cause and understand each other much better. So, as long as no one breaks the pact between us, we can stay friends. Once things are over, we can discuss the ins and out of our alliance.” Desaray was more than willing to continue the alliance. She did not wish for war between her and other kingdoms from the very start.
“My Fairy kind is glad to know that Your Holiness is willing to be our alliance leader. As you know my kind is a weak race and only takes up so much land. We do not ask for anything. So being allowed to be a part of an alliance like this allows me to feel at ease to know that my kind will have protection from those around us. While we may not have a lot, we will do what we can to help when you need it.” The Fairy Queen bowed her head to Desaray and then to the others. She only cared about the safety of her own people. She had no greed to speak of.
“You can count on the wood elves to help protect you, your highness. And your fairies have helped greatly in this war, so do not look down on your kind.”
“Yes. We dwarves are grateful to the help your kind has given. You have saved more lives than you think.”
“Yes, we dragons also are grateful.”
“As is the Holy Kingdom of Serenity. Fairies, elves, dwarves, dragons, all of you have all put in your fair share and have worked hard. Your people have also risked their lives and died at the hands of a mutual enemy. We are all just people in the end. We may look different, but we are all equal. It doesn’t matter how much strength one race has; I see them as no different from someone who is weaker. If we can keep this idea in mind, we will have long-lasting friendships.” While war was not something anyone ever wanted, it was also able to bring others together. The races that would normally act as if they were better than the others were now laying down their high and mighty pride and befriending those whom they once looked down upon.
“Your Holiness, may I ask you to set up a monthly meeting between leaders? I would like to be able to meet with you and the others at least once a month.” The dragon king asked. He felt that this was the best path to follow.
“That is fine. As long as the others are okay with it.” Desaray looked at the other three leaders each one nodded their heads. “Since you all agree, then I will now announce the formation of the North American Alliance.”
