"Who could have known how our war would change? How our walls would become raked with barbs thrown from monsters with skin of metal, how our towers would crumble from the fire brought down as their beasts roared in the heavens above. Who would have known? Would it have mattered?

Our fortress lay bare, the Knife's Edge's once-great walls litter the landscape, and her towers broken and fragmented. Our home for a decade had finally fallen, and it wasn't even close. This fight was not a battle we could have won; no, no, this fight's outcome was settled the day they began this war. With each defeat, they brought new weapons, with each setback new soldiers, and with each passing year, we found that our enemy was utterly unique, and our strategies were all for naught. And the battle at the Knife's Edge made that clear.

Their beasts on the ground sat too far back for our magic to hit, and the night sky hid the ones above. We lashed out like children as our fire mages illuminated the fields with their red and yellow glow. In contrast, our force mages launched their boulders into the enemy formation. I don't know if we hit a single one. Yet each salvo they sent and with fire dropped, they claimed lives as if it were a sport. I watched in horror as friends after friend met their fate at the end of a barb or under the crushing weight of our collapsing walls. I watched in shock as my fellow soldiers disappeared in a mist of bone and blood as the fire from above hit and exploded around them. I saw it all. It will be the end of us.

I led a desperate retreat from our home into the forest east and away from the carnage. Of all the commanders, only I, S'venia, and Ardur remain because we knew the battle was lost. We lead a small, inexperienced, and ill-equipped squad that must quickly become warriors. Now, we must fight our way across enemy-held land with hunters on our heels, for there is a secret crossing into the Land of Whispers. From there, we can return to our home and prepare our final defense.
