Creation Details
Prompt: “Helia Zenos was an incredibly beautiful, mature and tall woman who wore black uniform with golden symbols, a long black and white cloak that bore the Dawn Vanguard Corps' symbol at the back and black trousers with a black military cap that has golden symbols. She had long, mixed black and white hair tied that reached her waist and with long silver sidelocks and her hair is tied into a high ponytail, she also has cold looking crimson red eyes with a small, round black mole under her right eye, she has long legs and also has an athletic body figure. She wears an ancient, mythic rank and ominous looking black mask with golden engravings and the mask covers her face entirely. She's also in her mid-twenties(24 years old). The members of Dawn Vanguard had defeated the newly resurrected 11 sins(the vanguard had exterminated 8 of them before the war started but they were revived by the last sin, a fragment of the demon god called Oblivion fragment, to team up with the remaining 3 sins who survived and they all confronted the Dawn Vanguard all at once but this time, now all of them were dead) in a hard fought battle but they had some wounds and took some damage and they were utterly exhausted but still pushed forward and they had rushed to help Helia to fight the Demon God but it didn't end well. (They realized the eleven sins they fought was small fry compared to the demon god. The Dawn Vanguard Corps officially has thirteen members: (1)Helia as its Commander and the strongest, (2)Minerva Valen, the Dragon Headmistress as the second strongest, (3) Kale Von Ludwig, the shield bearer and also the vice commander, (4) the Fastest Swordsman, (5) the Archmage, (6)the Alchemist, (7)the Saintess, (8)the Barbarian berserker who wields a gigantic axe(9) the Beast King who is a feared assassin , (10)the female High elf who has a contract with high spirits 11) a male dark elf who was known as the storm archer and an expert sniper AND ALSO two honorary members (12)Fairy Queen and 13) The Dwarf Weapon Crafter.The grotesque looking demon god who possessed dark and curse magic of the highest level and had a monstrous figure, golden glowing eyes, three hug horns on its and an ominous dark aura was on a whole different level and possessed destructive abilities that gave life threatening wounds to every member of Dawn Vanguard Corps except Helia(who was roughly on par with the evil god) and they would have been dead already if not for Helia using time manipulation to partially heal their wounds to an almost healed state and it was only Helia who was presumed to be dead after defeating the Demon God. Helia remembered how she promised the family members, relatives, loved ones of her six subordinates that she would do her best to protect them and ensure they return safely (Due to her foresight, it showed her the future branching in different ways but covered in blood so she knew that her comrades would die if they fought together with her against the demon god). This prompted her to use her time manipulation to heal their wounds to an almost healed state ( the scars, the damage and their wounds will not remain but they will only be able to access only 75 percent of their original strength throughout their lifespan. When she did this, she also altered the fate of them dying to the demon god in the battlefield)and she redirected all the harm, damage and poison they 'supposedly' accumulated to herself.
" Commander, don't- " the shield bearer said while his voice shaking
" All of you, retreat " Helia Zenos's words echoed beyond the mask as she ordered them in a cold tone
The others resisted, the dragon headmistress shouted out
" Helia, stop this- "
She was caught off by when Helia raised her hand and said this in a low tone that sound authoritative but gentle and soft. She casted a golden barrier which was also powered by the saintess holy power and it helped to fend off the demon god's attacks
" This is not an order from me as your commander but a request from me as a comrade. Kale, tell the other units to cease fire and retreat. Also, rule Kairos (the empire she founded) in my place, you are more kind than me, the people need that."
Kale Ludwig, the shield bearer gritted his teeth at this as he realized his own powerlessness in this situation. Helia gazed at him for a short while and turned over to Minerva, the dragon heiress saying this to her with a soft look on her face,
" Minerva, take charge of the academy. I know you are the right person for the job but don't be too harsh on the children"
Minerva clenched her fist at this and her face was facing the ground with a grieved expression as her fiery red hair covered her forehead.
HELIA turned over to the rest and said to them,
" Also, you all should also compensate and support the families of the soldiers who fell in this battle and also read out the letter I left on my desk to them. I hope you all look after not only humanity but the other races as well. There should be no discrimination. All of you should retreat now, I will cover you."
And then she turned her back on them and this action shook the heart of the alchemist who cherished HELIA very much and who was like a little sister to Helia.
" Big Sis Lia... " the alchemist, the soothing energy and mascot of the group called out to her in a shaky tone
Helia's heart softened at this but she steadied her resolve, she closed her eyes and maintained a calm face saying,
" In this state, even I'm not confident of keeping all of you safe while fighting him "
" But—" , the saintess tried to talk but Helia gently cut her off by placing a hand on her shoulder and saying:
" Listen I surely don't know when... but I have a hunch we will see each other again. So...until then, farewell "
As she released the golden barrier, Her cloak fluttered in the air as she took flight to meet the demon god head on. As she met the demon god in the air, the remaining Dawn Vanguard reluctantly retreated, constantly looking behind to look at her one last time. As they left, HELIA finally meets the Demon god Oblivion on the air, the demon god's dark aura fiercely clashing with Helia's crimson red aura.”
