Mafia 56. Avatar: Invasion.

During the solemn funeral of Wulfgar, a good half of the capital was present. People couldn't hold back their tears; only Neira Drake remained unaffected. Yes, much had changed in her attitude towards the people of Fire during this time; she even began to sympathize with them to some extent, becoming an unwitting helper in achieving their goal... But Wulfgar will forever remain in her mind as an invader, murderer, and sadist.
Meanwhile, GoedenDag roared like a torrent, remembering how he and Arandor zealously served Wulfgar together, and how they looked after his daughter. He also reminisced about his youth and many other things.
Without waiting for the end, Neira left, but after walking a few streets, she unexpectedly found herself inside a locked building due to an earthquake... "Stay here for now; we don't need you right now, Hama!" she heard a young girl's voice from outside.
The victor had no time for festivities. This morning, the council of nobles, which currently held power temporarily, was alarmed by his reports about an impending invasion of the capital. They didn't even believe him at first, but when he presented them with an air mage... In the upcoming defense, the Victor, as a military man with numerous merits, was appointed commander-in-chief. Although he himself insisted on evacuation: the experience of the North Pole taught him that one should never underestimate the enemy. With a living Avatar or a dead enemy, the people of Fire pose a real danger during a solar eclipse.
Be that as it may, the Victor was now on the coast: the invasion would begin in a matter of minutes. A blade frozen in ice floated past him on the water. He had seen something like this before... After a few minutes, another such frozen figure floated by, followed by a girl who was wanted and appeared on the water, raised a wave, went into the sea, and disappeared. A sudden thought stunned the Victor.
- That's why there are no ships! They are underwater! Fire mages, full combat readiness!

- Hakoda, your daughter...
- I see. Rise to the surface and let her in. But quickly, so we don't get spotted.
When Nefela, breathless, found herself inside, she began her story. Having listened to her, Hakoda scratched his head:
- So, Naver Leengard is dead? This is terrible news; I have lost many in this war, but my own son! Let's hope Drakkosha will at least release him in the afterlife. What about ToX?
- Father, much time has passed, and he still hasn't returned to the parking spot. Besides, strange rumors have been circulating around the city. I hope it's not too late to help him...
- Your friend Ple-Sen?
- She is in the city with Nebo; they want to attack from the rear.
- Then we begin. Water mages, activate the submarines! Nefela, we need you too!
- I am ready.

The attackers were remarkably well prepared: their tank-caterpillar vehicles were no worse than the tanks of the people of Fire, there were fewer people, but the mages were better trained and controlled two elements (water, earth) against one. Despite this, the attack almost failed when it encountered positions fortified under the leadership of the Victor, but Hakoda chose the timing of the raid successfully: the eclipse occurred exactly when it was most needed. The fire mages, who had lost their power, were instantly put to flight, and the melee warriors soon followed them. In just a few minutes, the city was taken, and most of the garrison was captured.
It seemed that everything was over, but one question remained open: what to do next? Who will become the new master of Fire, someone whom they can trust and whom the people of Fire would agree on as a candidate?

Nefela found him. ToX had been cold for a long time. There was only one way left: water from that very oasis, which had already worked its amazing magic once before. And now Nefela used her water magic on ToX's mortal wound for a long time.
What is this? Does he have a pulse? Or is she imagining things? Nefela looked intently at ToX's face, trying to see signs of life in him. After all, everything is over; we won the war; she couldn't lose him too after losing her brother! That would be more than she could bear!
Nefela hugged ToX and wept bitterly.
