The Loss of Onion

The war came to my home and ripped it away from Kindred and I. Akros was able to get us there and we were able to save a majority of the town. Unfortunately we weren't able to save everyone since the attack had already begun by the time we got there. We got a plan started to save as many people as we could Kindred and I ran straight to home and met Grampy Onion and Mama Bean trying to stave off a fire. The farm was basically lost and Mama told us to save as many books and keepsakes as we could. I grabbed as much as I could almost mindlessly, I felt a pull towards Grampy's old axe so I grabbed that too. The moment I grabbed it I felt it was special and meant for me. The moment we all met back up Grampy noticed that his axe was meant for me. He told me it chose me and to protect it and it would protect me. He told us all to go and he would hold off the fire and war as best he could. I begged him to try and escape if he could, I knew he wouldn't leave before trying even if I begged him. I ran with everyone back to town to evacuate everyone we could. We were able to save about 300 people of the 500 or so. Kindred and I had screamed and cried afterwards feeling so much pain from losing our home and family. I don't even know how much of my family is still here, and that lack of knowledge scares me so much. The axe seemed to do well against the invaders but I couldn't save our home even with it's power, Yet. While I was saving Kindred from her own fire breath, I felt a hand on my shoulder. An old wizened hand, for a moment I thought it was Grampy but it wasn't. I didn't recognize him but I think it was Solaias. I felt the weight of responsibility fall on my shoulders in that moment.
