The last two days had been a whirlwind. More like a shitstorm, actually, Tamar thought to herself, sitting by Holli$' hospital bed. Not trusting the Deilig doctors, but not wanting to move Holli$ when he needed immediate care, she had commandeered a Deilig hospital and put some of her army medics in charge for the time being. Kole may be dead, but Deilig wouldn't be free of his influence overnight.
Kole is dead. Now that brought a smile to her face.
She'd been furious when she found out Holli$ had sneaked away in the early hours of the morning, and she was still pretty angry with him, but she had to admit she was proud of the kid. He may have risked his life in the most idiotic way possible, but he had won. Kole was dead.
She'd wasted no time in rushing to Deilig with her most trusted team of soldiers when she realized where Holli$ must have gone. She'd also given the rest of the army orders to begin to make their way to Deilig. She'd wanted to wait for a more strategic moment, but Holli$' impulsivity had forced her hand. If Holli$ got himself killed, the only way to stop Kole would be to take Deilig by force. If Holli$ survived, he would need Tamar and her army to protect him from Kole's followers.
When Tamar and her team arrived, they found Kole dead, Holli$ half-dead, Amerie (!!!) more than half-dead, and Aran. Amerie was currently receiving the best medical care Amelia could provide. The star pieces were retrieved, and Tamar's army arrived and broke through the wall. They were now hunting down Kole's remaining "elite". They had won.
"Haven't you slept enough yet, you lazy idiot?" she said to Holli$' unconscious form. "Get up. You have an eilemaiden to run now."
