Chapter 127
From the very beginning, the essence of this confrontation was clear.
The clash between shadow and gold. Beyond that, the colors: black and blue claiming to be the standard-bearer of shadow, crimson and white claiming to be the standard-bearer of gold. It was an extremely straightforward color theory.
Who the ‘Golden Sovereign’ referred to went without saying. The one standing at the pinnacle of the Empire of Fire and Light.
Therefore, there was no need to even mention where Dale, bearing the name ‘Shadow Lord,’ should fight.
Even though the First War of the Roses ended in victory for Lancaster thanks to Dale’s exploits, as Mikhail Malmatta said, the war was only just beginning.
Shortly thereafter. Officially, the House of York offered to surrender at Dale’s request, and the House of Lancaster accepted their surrender. The hero of the First War of the Roses, the ‘Black Prince’ who had served as Lancaster’s standard-bearer, also returned to his own lands.
Shortly thereafter, the House of Lancaster declared war on the House of York, accusing them of brainwashing and bewitching their eldest son, Richard.
This marked the beginning of the Second War of the Roses.
In this world, there are no lifelong enemies, nor lifelong allies.
That was why Dale found himself within the castle walls of the House of York, against whom he had fought as an enemy just moments before. All in the name of ‘Philip,’ the reckless scion of the House of the Earl who fought for them.
