"My Queen, we are approaching the Deep elves countries and will arrive shortly" Gaurder said, interrupting Aryans thoughts on how to get close to the Deep elf Capital without being spotted by them

"*Sigh* Thank you Gaurder, I will be out shortly," she said, Gaurder looked at her for a while before nodding his head and walking out to go prepare the troops for landing. Aryan sighed again, they had managed to travel across the seas without much trouble but had run into a small High elf fleet of 7 ships the size of the battleships

She had managed to stop them all from escaping and had even managed to plunder their ships of all the gold and jewels aboard as well as capturing the crews before having sunk the ships to the bottom of the sea, the problem was that the prisoners kept trying to escape and had caused load noises during the night, which kept almost everyone from sleep

Although that had quieted down a bit when they had started demanding food and talking about prisoners rights and had ended up being fed one of their own that had been killed in the raid, at this point fear is what was keeping them in line

Aryan sighed again before standing from her desk and walked out the door and down the stairwell onto the deck, she was saluted as she walked to the bow of the ship and stood next to Goddess Leinas, who was accompanying them on their campaign

It was misty over the water but she could still see the majority of her fleet and could even see the mountain range on their left, her musings were interrupted by Leinas "A fine start to the day isn't it?" she said looking over the calm greywater, Aryan nodded in agreement, the sun had risen an hour ago so the chill was still in the air

"Yes, a fine start but I fear by the end the day will be full of sadness", Leinas nodded in return before going silent and starring over the armada, Aryan still couldn't believe how her life had changed, in the span of half a year she had gone from fighting a war with her peoples most hated counterpart to defeating them and talking to true gods on a daily bases

"We are approaching the river mouth!" the captain of the ship yelled down, "Better prepare Queen Aryan, there is a deep elf watch post at the gap in the mountains, wouldn't want them to report a large hoast of ships  entering their land to their high counsel" Leinas said

"Of course, Goddess Leinas" Aryan said as she walked away to go put her armour on and mentally prepare for the battles to come

"Look out!" Gaurder jumped in front of her to stop an arrow heading straight for her heart, she had been distracted by the deep elves troop trying to flank her army. While the outpost was small they still had a solid defence that would be a tough cookie to crack

"Thank you Gaurder. Get the siege weapons loaded!" she yelled at the troops behind her, they nodded and started assembling massive bows that they had yet to decided the name of, when they had finished assembling them they loaded in the massive arrow and started cranking back the projectile

"Ready! Aim! Fire!" she commanded as the 30 projectiles flew threw the air before crashing into the deep elves shiel, either pushing the shield back or killing them and 3 people behind them due to the pure force of the projectile "Reload!"

She kept repeating the commands as her army pushed forward, pushing the deep elves back until they were up against their walls trying to fight back only to be slaughtered by the Dark elves and the corrupted

Aryan held up her hand and instantly all the troops stepped back and awaited her command, the deep elves looked over their shields, in fear of what might happen next, to see Aryan walking slowly towards them, like a predator approaching her prey

"Deep elves, surrender the outpost to me, no more blood has to be shed, you can join our Empire and live to see your loved ones again or you can pick the uncivilised rout-" a deep elf ran towards her, trying to kill the commander of the opposing army thinking that is she died they would have a chance, only for Aryan to pull out a hilt like object and ignite it and stab the other elf

"-Then you will die like animals" she finish as though she was never interrupted, the deep elves looked between each other before half of the kneeled down and laid their shields and Hammers on the floor, the other half looked at them in disgust before turning to Aryan and charging in defiance, only to be shot down by the large bows

"Grab the dead Deep elves bodies and feed them to the corrupted, collect what remains and store it on the ships and take our fallen troops and give them to Leinas!" she shouted to her army and they instantly moved to obey

"Gaurder, grab your students and go into the outpost, we must make sure there is no one left to defy us in there" she commanded, Gaurder nodded before grabbing his 10 students, knights that he had taken to personally train, and marched into the building

After a few moments she heard the sounds of death coming from within the outpost, she ignored it and went to find Leinas. After a minute she found her sitting on a log with a mirror on the floor busy casting a spell, when she was done Y/N appeared in a dark red colour (Similar to a hologram), he looked at Leinas and she kneeled towards him

"Report" he said
