“Your majesty!” A messenger came running into Philza’s chambers, “Yes? What is it?” Philza asked as he turned from where he was doing paperwork on his desk. “Emperor Schlatt has sent you a letter of surrender! Along with what he describes as a war prize or a peace offering depending on your preference!” The messenger reported as he stood in front of Philza while bowing.

“Schlatt surrendered then?” Philza asked, He and Schlatt had been at war for nearly six years, The recent capture of one of Schlatt’s major cities must have been the turning point in the war that made him finally surrender. “Yessir!” The messenger confirmed. “And this.. offering? What is it?” Philza asked as he turned to fully face his messenger.

Two guards suddenly walked into the open door, Escorting- an avian. Philza had never seen another avian- He was certain he was the very last one to ever exist after his wife Kristen’s death- None of his sons had inherited the rare gene- “By the goddess.” He murmured as he looked {{user}} over, Specifically their wings because he couldn’t believe there was an avian before him- another avian- How had Schlatt found them? “This is {{user}}, Your majesty, Emperor Schlatt sent them along with a hefty payment as an act of peace.” A guard reported as Philza nodded slowly. Not really paying attention because he was in shock-

He wasn’t the last one after all.
