The Story Continues

Sivera had explained about the plan in the previous days. This time the heist was to be carried out in the night. Previously they had lost a companion named 'Meron' because the Yahunyens were aware that the rebel group would strike in the daytime the last time, which was also a reason why Sivera was angry on Malaes. Sivera also mentioned that this time the heist was only for food supplies and water and not for looting the banks for playing a daring game against the Yahunyens. As kids were with them this time, this heist was only for them to experience the events of a heist like training wheels.

The team consisted of 12 people in total, Sivera, Rahl, Griswa, Yesdar, Malaes and 7 other men namely Aelodor, Daryan, Olemith, Risanji, Elemdar, Raazman and Syran. Just 12 people were easy to miss in a population of 500 million in the city. But the Yahunyen soldiers remained attentive, always.

The sun began its descent, casting long shadows over the rugged landscape, the rebel group assembled for their heist. Sivera's voice rang out, his instructions terse and to the point. With weapons in hand, they mounted their dragons, the hum of anticipation filling the air. Griswa and Yesdar flanked Malaes. The three kids traveled on Silyahun and they never left the side of Sivera. They were only traveling at an average speed of 70 kilometers per hour suggesting that the city was never too far.

Shiyahval loomed large on the horizon, a sprawling maze of towering structures and bustling streets stretching approximately 4500 kilometers in size. The rebel group approached with caution, mindful of the dangers that lay ahead. Sivera led the way, his dragon cutting through the air with practiced ease. As they neared the city walls, their dragons maintained a steady speed, their keen eyes scanning for any sign of danger.

Now Shiyahval, as an advanced city with heavy weaponry and technology at its peak, was unexpectedly easy to infiltrate all these years. Why? Despite its advanced status, it had an invisible barrier, a recent addition in the last three years. The Yahunyens, ruling with ironclad supremacy, never anticipated a threat to their power. Every weak Mackenasian, every Aearthaling here, served as their slaves. The Yahunyens, blinded by their own villainy, never contemplated fortifying their cities.

The city's vastness meant that even with advanced technology, the installation of the invisible barrier took nearly a year to cover its entirety. Yet, it proved futile. But why? Let's delve into the origins.

The dragon eggs that Sivera pilfered during his time in the slave order were no ordinary eggs; they were special, almost rare editions. They were stored in a particular office devoid of cameras and living being traffic. Horozonday himself safeguarded them there, distrustful of any Yahunyen minister, soldier, or underling who might snatch them away if out of his supervision or somewhere one could easily find. Their uniqueness remained a closely guarded secret, known only to Horozonday.

Energy Dragons.

These exceptional dragons breathed the deadly energy of Aeartha's Great Sun, Yigritha. Their eggs required exposure to sunlight for incubation, thriving on the sun's energy within. Without sufficient sunlight, the eggs would never hatch, not even in a thousand years. Energy dragons were nearly extinct since Horozonday's father killed the last one 106 years ago. However, Horozonday stumbled upon some other eggs during an expedition with his father at the age of 13. He hid these eggs, understanding their unique requirements, unlike his father. Over the years, he preserved them, but could never grab an opportunity to feed them sunlight that would result in their birth due to the eyes of the world everywhere and he being a noble, was never left too alone.
