Trinity

~~

The moment the boulder broke there were hundreds and thousands of beasts and Fae that started to pour out of it as if they were somehow pushed but that thick, dark, roiling fog. I was keeping my eyes open and looking for the woman responsible for all of this fighting, but it was hard to see beyond all the other enemies that were now in the way.

I could see many different kinds of ugly and hideously dark beasts flying and rampaging into the clearing from somewhere on the other side of that crack. There were disgustingly ugly winged beasts that looked like they were made of nothing but sludge and bones. Roaring into the now fog-darkened sky were giant dinosaur looking beasts that had some sort of thick armored skin that looked like they were somehow mixed with other animals such as elephants, crocodiles, whales, rhinos, and more. There were huge, monstrous serpents that were so vast in size that they looked like they were big enough to swallow any of us whole, two or three at a time even. There were even more as well, but their forms kept changing. Those shapeshifters had to be the boggarts. 

They were notorious for changing shapes to scare their enemies. There were creatures that weren't ugly as well. Some of them were so beautiful that it was easy to see why they were able to lure their victims to their doom. The number of enemies that were pouring out of that boulder was way more than I had been expecting.

The fighting started immediately. No one really waited for a direct order to attack and fight. The only thing that they were doing was going in waves like they have been told to do. We were having them fight in two different waves so that we would be able to recuperate and heal the tired and injured warriors while another wave was battling away.

Athair mòr's troops had immediately taken to the water and that was a good thing too. I saw that there were several dark Fae that went straight for the sea and were intending to take us by surprise with their water magic. However, they were shocked to find thousands of water shifters and Fae waiting for them. 

My troops were part of the reserve at the moment, but I could tell that they were itching to get out there. I myself was not actively fighting yet, but I wasn't sitting idly by either. I was looking for my true target, the true reason that I wanted to be here and part of this war. I was looking for Solanum so that I might eliminate her and rid this world of her evil once and for all. And I was going to avenge my great great grandfather while I was at it.

The fighting was brutal. I saw that there were casualties on both sides, and I needed to do something. We had called with the warriors healers that were meant to help out troops in moments like this. I knew that Griffin, Lana, Doc, and several other healers were here and could make sure that there were little to no deaths among our people. I wanted as few people to die here as possible.

"Griffin, you and the others get to work. Bring back the injured."

"Yes, Queen Trinity." He was a friend but here in this setting he was treating me formally so that the others would remember to do so as well.

I watched then as a few dozen healers spread out across the battlefield. They were doing their best to not get caught up in the fighting itself. Despite those efforts though, some of the Fae beasts that were sent as their first wave of attacks went straight for the healers like they knew why they were out there. It was like they were targeting them so that they would be unable to bring back fallen warriors.

The first wave seemed like it was passing in the blink of an eye, but I could see that the sky was changing colors and it was already starting to shift to nighttime. After a while there seemed to be a pause, or at least a slowing down of the creatures that were coming through the crack in the boulder.

"Fighters, change positions. Wave one it is time for you to rest and heal. We will need you again soon." Aunt Glory seemed to be watching on as well and knew just what needed to be done.

I watched on as the first warriors fell back and went to rest while the second wave entered the battlefield at the ready. Me and my troops were in the fighting wave this time. I just stood there, facing the boulder and waiting for the horror show that I knew was about to come pouring out of it.

This time, there were more Fae than just monsters that were coming from within the boulder. I had a feeling that the monsters were being summoned and controlled by the other Fae and, like us, they were attacking in waves. That meant that their first wave was most likely resting so they could regain some of their stamina and prepare to send another wave of those things at us.

That was fine though, we would do what we could to eliminate this wave of Fae. I wasn't going to sit idly by while I searched out my true target. I was going to fight here along with the others.

"Vincent, David, Shane, Shawn, all of you are here with me and that gives me solace. Thank you for always sticking with me and being there for me."

"Of course, Trinity." Vincent smiled at me and gave a firm nod.

"We would never think about fighting with anyone else." David added.

"Yeah, no one is better than our Queen, we've got your back Trinity. We love you." Shane smirked in the face of this battle we were in.

"We would never abandon you." Shawn added.

"I am glad you said that Shawn, because if any of you die in this battle I will kill you." I smiled back at them and they laughed a little. 

"You have my word, Trinity, that I will try my best not to be injured in this battle." Vincent nodded and they all agreed.

"And you better not get hurt either, Trinity. Or Reece will kill us even if we are dead." Shane laughed, breaking the tension we were all feeling at the moment.

"Yeah, so let's all do our best." I nodded at them.. It was time for us to fight.
