The Empress Of The Abandoned Palace

n together, drink and celebrate their victory.

He always looked at her shiny back, but never dared to approach it as she didn cared about her shine.

She only cared about to be worthy for him, all she wanted was his love that she never noticed Taylors overwhelming feelings for her.

”Long time no see, Commander. Welcome Back! ”

”Welcome back, Commander !! ”

”We will always support you, Commander!! ”

Eleanora was overwhelmed by their warm welcome.

”Thank you, guys.. Thank you so much… ”

There are so many people who clearly loves me.. Why i never noticed it before? Why i always chased after something that didn belonged to me?

I won be like that anymore from now on. Lets begin a new beginning.

No more Eleanora Cathain Valentino, I will start the beginning again as Eleanora La Alexander Dalton.

Commander Dalton is back again.!

Eleanora stroke her horse, Elijah and put her forehead against hers.

Elijah was a gift from her parents, when she was only five.

”Noora, This is your fifth birthday gift. ”

”Wats dis, mommy? ”

”This is a pony…umm… A little horse? ”

”Ele likes dissss… ”

From behind Alexander came in with a doll that was bigger then Eleanora.

”Girls like dolls, Lia. I will win this time…. Ele, here is your favourite doll! ”

”Elee likes dissss too. ”

”You need to choose one, Ele. Which one do you like more? ”

”Thenn… Mommys ponny.. ”

”… ”

Enuicelia burst into laughter and Alexander sighed. He failed to impress his daughter this year too.

”Noora, lets give a name to this little pony okey? ”

”Yep!!!! ”

”Do you have any name on your mind? ”

”Um…. Elijah? ”

”… ”

Elijah was the name that she previously wanted to give to her little sister, that she wanted from her parents to play with.

Thats why Alexander had bought a doll for her. But never thought she will use that same name for her horse.

They couldn help but laught at this. This was a normal scenery at the Dalton Duchy until that incident happened.

Her mother teached her to ride a horse. The same horse that fled with ten year old Ele on her back from the assault attack on house Dalton, where she lost her mother.

That was a normal day for them. Alexander had to go to the border for some sudden work, so it was only Eunicelia, Eleanora and a few knights along with some maids.

They was playing on the garden with Elijah who was able to run with Ele on her back.

Suddenly some masked mans with swords appeared and the servants started to yell.

As they was at the garden, Eunicelia didn bought her sword with her.

She grabbed a fruit knife and took out a dagger that was hidden under her dress.

She took Eleanora on her arms and made her sat on Elijahs back.

”Noora, Mommy loves you…. Take care of your dad. Tell your dad that.. Mommy loves him and wish for his happiness. ”

”….Mom…Mommy… ”

Little Eleanora who grew up on a happy atmosphere till now had never encountered anything like this, so she was frightened to death hearing all the screams and slashing sound.

Enuicelia kissed Eleanoras forehead and gave her a big smile with tears on her beautiful face because she knew she won be able to see her lovely daughter again.

”ELIJAH! RUN! RUN FAR AWAY!. ”

Hearing her orders, Elijah started to run with little Ele on her back.

Eleanora looked back to see her mother but only saw how a sword pierced through her mothers chest and she stabbed that man with a dagger.

She looked at Ele and bid goodbye to her. There was more then one hundred killers was sent so there was no way she could kill that many people.

Still she tried her best to hang on. Blood was flowing out from her heart and she knew its the time.

She looked up to the sky and took a last heavy breathe.

Be safe and happy, Noora… I love you, Alexander..

”Liaaaa….. NOOOOOO! ”

Soon a big explosion was heard from far away and sparkling lighting droplets started to drop from the sky.

”LIAAAAA!!!! LIAAAAA….NOOOO!!! ”

Alexander was struggling and his hands was trying to reach her.

Seven knights was having a hard time in the attempt to stop him and other was managing a protection sheild on them as Lias magic outburst was way to destructive.

He was crying and struggling with all his might to touch her one last time.

Eleanora knew what it was too. It was the explosion of someone who had burst out her all inner powers.

Eunicelia had light attribute power that can heal people but it also had the most destructive sucidical damage.

From then on she practiced day and night to protect people, so that anymore mother won have to sacrifice themselves to save their children, no more little Ele have to flee with tears for leaving her mother away.

But this created distance between her and her father.

She was guilty for leaving her mother alone and he was guilty for not being able to save them in time.

He shut off himself from the world then on. He sent Ele to the palace that she will be safe there.

Never he imagined that, the place he thought would be safe for her will turn into a hell for her.

Eleanora wiped away her tears and rode on Elijahs back.

”FOR OUR MOTHERLAND! OUR LIFES ARE NOTHING, AS KNIGHTS! ”

Everyone yelled the same after Eleanora and they started to move towards the city, killing every rebel party that came in.
