บท 129: Deimos and Phobos

"Is that a Deimos?" Kathrine said as though she was seeing a myth. "What's a Deimos?" Caleb asked, acting proxy for Mindy and myself also. 

"I never thought they were real." Kathrine said as colour started returning to her face. "My Daddy used to read me bedtime stories from the families library when I was a girl. One of them was a cautionary tale about one of the Spartari founders, Ares, and his army of Deimos and Phobos warriors."

"It was said that during the time of the founding, Ares was in charge of waging war in the northern sector of the galactic map. Our Spartari at the time was housed to a myriad of treacherous alien species and their populations were much greater than ours. Ares was obsessed with waging war against these species, but his brothers and sisters on the founding Olympus council would not send him additional soldiers, as they all were in an internal power struggle while he simply wished to fight."
