The Army of Antares

In the Tathamet family manor, Apophis had just left the confines of his bedroom and stepped into the hall. 

His anxiety proved to be getting the best of him, as he was having a hard time sleeping even with the woman he loved in his arms. 

With his mind jumbled, he strode through the halls of his home in the hopes of alleviating his worries over the future. 

Today... the army from Antares was likely to arrive. 

There was a tension present in the home that was always there before a large battle, except that this time it was further compounded by the absence of his father and sister. 

Everyone believed that they would return soon, but the longer they were gone the more anxious everyone felt. 

He just like everyone else, was worried that they wouldn't make it back in time. 

Apophis had ended up in the kitchen unconsciously, and found someone he wasn't at all expecting to see.
