PANDEMONIUM
Sina was wearing normal clothes today. Different from her formal robe when she is concocting pills, today she is wearing a tight jean, a black t-shirt and her straight hair tied at the back.
She asks one of her servants to buy it in the market.
Pandemonium because of its relative peace has promoted the establishment of goods that used to exist before the Fall.
Someone even made a carbonated drinks and raking in a lot of gold.
Modern clothes while is impractical in battle since it is not filled with defensive and damaging properties towards monster make it easier for people to do things in a casual settings.
After all a warrior couldn’t clean house or sleep in a comfy bed wearing heavy armor all the time.
Usually they have to remove the heavy armor and wore some medieval looking robes or garbs or dresses.
Most of the tailors and production class leveler are still in intermediates level and could only make clothes using the blueprint.
And in times of war and great uncertainty nobody cares to much what they wear or not wearing.
Humanity had a rough couple of years and death was the norm.
Whether it be kids, old people or young there is no distinction in the eyes of Death.
Some people have even accustomed themselves of seeing roads fills with dead people or empty villages.
It wasn’t until after the Weronian War ended that the whole world felt like they could breathe.
Places like Moscow, the Island of Peace of the World Government or Pandemonium had the largest human population with the guarantee of safety from monsters.
People might rag on the Three Great Powers for their control over the world events but if not for them the world would not be as peaceful as it is.
It kept the many forces that do not always have the best interest of the world in check. In the end it is matter of freedom or security.
And right now freedom doesn’t worth shit if you are dead in a gutter somewhere. It is why many people tolerated the World Government.
And where people gather and when safety is guaranteed, they could relax and have time for themselves.
So, there are some tailors that make modern clothes for convenience in Pandemonium Capital market.
And Sina was interested when she got the flyers from her neighbors. So, she bought it.
She wears it at home when she does not do anything or just wanted to relax on the swing in her porch and enjoy the cool evening breeze.
There is a large tree behind her house and she likes sitting underneath that tree in the evening, wearing a one piece dress while reading.
And today she is about to clean her house.
Unlike Azief who is always in his black robe and always leave the matter like cleaning to his Keepers of the Palace, Sina still like to clean her own home by herself.
It had nothing to do with her being humble as some of the people thought. She just likes seeing the dust in the window sill get wiped out by her own hand.
It is kind of healing for her. She is one of those kinds of people that likes being clean.
And so today, she dismissed all of her servants and send her acolytes to go searching for new herbs and categorize those that they already found
She is about to clean her house. She is mopping the floor while whistling her favorite song. Then as she was about to change the water in the bucket she heard a knock at her front door.
She put down her mop inside the bucket and walk to the door.
‘Who’s there?’ She said as she opens her door. Opening it, she saw someone that she has been waiting for a long time.
She was speechless for a while. Then she smiles. With her mouth and her eyes, she smiles. And then before that person managed to even spoke a word, Sina jump and hug her.
‘Soph, it’s been a long time!’ She said cheerily as she hugs Sofia. Sofia hugging Sina, smiles and nodded
The Divine Archer is back at Pandemonium.
***
A little bit short. Because I don’t want to cut the next part of the chapter which needs to be all in one part. BEcause it will tell the reason why Sofia came back and what is Sina thoughts on it. You all might forgotten because there is an alien fleet in space, an amnesiac alien woman who created the Multiverse(albeit unitentionaly) , a terrifying prediction from the Oracle and many other stuff but there is still the matter of Azief, Sofia and Katarina love triangle going on.
Like I said, and Loki said, in the end this story is a bit of a an epic love story. Though, usually when one called it an epic fantasy or an epic love story it always had a little bit of tragedy in it.
Heheeheh. I am a one sadistic writer to my characters.
The readers of Age of Heroes would understand. The sheer pain I brought them with Arial love story..hehehe
Anyway, I know this chapter will not satisfied you so, wait for tomorrow where it is longer.
