Cyrus had come back home after taking a very circuitous route from Heliohapt back to Reim. In an empty house that, to most, had been abandoned for the last year at the very least, he found one letter addressed to the Argentum family. Cyrus opened it and looked who sent it. “From Arianna Argentum,” Cyrus’s older sister. A woman in her late twenties she already established herself as one of the premier fighters in Reim’s coliseum. Like Cyrus she was always looking for adventure but unlike her younger brother she had already settled down, had gotten married and so was done with fighting, or so he thought. The letter read: Dear Argentum family whoever is still home) as you know, civil war has broken out in the east. My husband and I are going out there since we have interests in protecting my husband’s family and their estate, which have been threatened. I have taken both horses, the spear and the sword Its is highly likely that I am already in Kou by the time you read this and I will fight by my husband’s side for as long as I live. That said, I hope to return to Reim soon. Your loving sister and daughter, Arianna.”
