Wings and flames

Chapter 1

{AN: Check out the images to visualize the world better}

It's March, the winds have a piece of sun in them now. The mornings are painfully early and this bed hasn't been easy to adjust to. It's 4am, and as usual Viri is up.

Viri was promoted to a Green last month. Greens are the most powerful group of warriors in the kingdom. It's been 45 days since the last war. She's young but she's always fought better than anyone in the land. And after a long time, the inevitable promotion was bestowed upon her. She's left her old house in the city, for a brand new room in the palace accommodations. Promotions did help with better lifestyle.

At the age of 20, Viri stands 5'7 and has a bit of a reputation.

This particular morning, she's up for her rounds of the land. Run to the north, hike up and then fly down to the south to keep a check on the border. Fly? Yep. Viri has wings. Not super fun or scary looking but they do the job.

Athoms has been home to Viri for 5 years now. In Athoms, there's very little to be scared of. There's the borders who are almost never attacked, thanks to the tension by the latest battle. There are the human heirs, who never seem to understand 'stay out' and then there's every other faerie, demon or some mutated monster who's decided to come for the dragon army.

Dragons have always been in demand in all the realms. Something about a giant flying flame throwing animal excites all sadists. Thanks to them, Viri and the rest of the army are always getting in shape or rather, staying in shape for whatever attacks that might emerge.

Today, she has to meet the Green line of force and establish some ground rules.
