     'Master...don't do this to yourself! What are we going to do without you?'

     'No, Ferlah. I need to. Everyone wants my power. Greed had taken the world. And soon, greed will end everything. If this falls into the wrong hands, there will be no tomorrow for the innocent ones. I had preserved this as what the ancient book said. But turns out that I had to give it up.' Her master wiped her tears. 'You are the best of my students. I am entrusting you the world from now on.'

    

      'But Master Lyrah! I'm not! Everyone knows that! And besides, no one believed that ancient book except us! Maybe every word written on it was a lie!' Ferlah reckoned. She was crying hard for she can't bear that the person who took her in will soon disappear in this world. 'But even if I am, I'm not ready for it!'

    Slowly turning around to find out what's going on, Prince Zaeius prayed in his mind that it wouldn't cause him trouble. He saw a man popped out from the towering trees. To his surprise, the man was wearing something familiar to him. And he just wished what he thought was wrong. But as the man draw nearer, five more men followed. Everything seemed like a thick fog slowly vanishing into thin air, giving him a clearer view of the advancing men. They weren't just 'something familiar' because they were actually very familiar to him. And the confidence about what he thought that he's far from his home disappeared in a snap, replaced by fear and worry. But wasn't like he don't want to go home. He's just not ready to face the king and queen. Half of the men were wearing their kingdom's guard uniforms and the rest were wearing soldier clothings. He could tell by the m

    The night crawled faster than Prince Zaeius thought. Insects of the night started singing melodies outside the house. The cold night breeze seeped through his room's wooden wall. And here he is now, lying on his bed, drained and exhausted. His eyes were closed but his mind won't let him sleep. He couldn't believe everything. Everything that Keir had told him. He took a quick sigh trying to exhale out the raging mixed emotions since Keir told him everything. He got all the answers. Yet now, he's stuck on how to deal with those. Especially that he's mind had split into two. Half of it believed. Half of it refused to do so. But only he believed because of the believable ones. There's so much thoughts that keep on running inside his head. Most of it were Keir's words.

    "Got any news?" King Astius' voice felt terrifying as he asked the troops in front of him. They were a mix of soldiers and guards. Nervousness and fear were written on their eyes. Stood on either side of him were two soldiers and on the far left was the royal adviser. "Still none of them, your majesty." A soldier forwarded, politely bowing his head in front of the king. The king clenched his jaw as his hands balled into fists furiously. They've been searching for eternity but still no news about the prince. "Useless!" His hands loosened and swiftly grabbed a sword from the soldier beside him. He shoved it on the soldier's throat in front of him. A crimson fluid leaked out of it as the pitiful man seizured on the shiny floor of the royal hall, slowly losing his br

    Prince Zaeius woke up as the way too cold morning breeze filtered inside his nostrils. It pierces the skin on his face like a splash of icy water that he couldn't even feel the tip of his nose. It wasn't the one he used to wake up with yesterday. And then, a sudden flash of realization displayed inside his head. He remembered lying himself in a pile of thick dried grass as he his strength gave up from too much exhaustion. This was the time when he forced his eyelids to separate from each other, giving him a hazy vision at first that if he didn't scratch it with the back of his hand, he won't be able to see clearly. But the same scene greeted his drowsy eyes, though the differences could be pointed out easily. A wooden ceiling but a lot more older than the other one he saw yesterday. The cobwebs were even more thicker looking like curt

    The radiance from the luxurious chandeliers resembled of great elegance fit for royals; queued with delicate distance in the middle of the vast ornamental plaster ceiling which came in red velvet color while the carved floral designs were highlighted with different shades of peach. The torches sprouting on each of eight enormous marble pillars contributed an amazing glow, perfectly blending the existing radiance. Below the torches, there were swords hanged around each pillars for emergency purposes. They sparkled at the fire swaying to and fro coming from the torches. Of course, the kingdom's signature lily lanterns were present, too; aligned around each four corners of the ceiling but were made in a more glamorous way. However, this festive ambiance above was nothing compared to the lingering heavy atmosphere on the occupied seats below.

    Those who were in the front line stormed to attack first. But the giant serpent just ignored their blows even if they had given it all of their strength. Its sharp eyes were eyeing the vulnerable king. Instead, it only made the monster furious for blocking its way to the prey. With one mighty swing on its head, bodies flew at a great distance in the air, landing themselves brutally on the pillars and walls, bones torn into pieces with their pale skin and mouth sprayed with hot crimson liquid. Even the stone seats were pulverized into tiny bricks. "Its here for the king! Quick! Get his majesty out of here!" Doctor Bai ordered the court maidens along with the four soldiers and two most skilled elders to escort the king through the exit door. Once the monster heard this, it slithered swiftly towards the king who was now escorted to escape. In a snap, the precious t

    "Ya, old scum! Someone's here to see ya!" Gurr, the head of jail guards came in with two other men dressed in faded grey vests and old combat boots which resembled a lower position than him each man carried a torch to light the dark tunnel through the jail. Gurr was referring to the newly admitted prisoner who was now curled in an unsettling sleep inside the cell on a bare, dirty and hard ground. It was Mon. But Mon didn't hear anything as he was drowning himself in a deep sleep. He had a rough day yesterday that even the freezing temperature of the jail didn't bother him. And what prize would it bring him to stay awake? All he could see were dark boring walls of the cave between the small gaps of the cold iron bars that had taken away his right of freedom. And the groans of pain and hunger from his fe

    There was a moment of silence inside the place as the bright light of flames danced gently to its own burning, serene rhythm. Ado's Adam's apple bobbed up and down as his eyes were filled with uneasiness, anxiously shifting from direction to direction. Obviously, trying to avoid Mon's scrutinizing gaze probably trying to guess what Ado was going to reveal. It took Aso a couple of deep breaths before he heard his own voice vibrating inside his throat out of his mouth. "I failed you, Mon. I betrayed you. I don't wish to be forgiven by you; I know I don't deserve it but I really am sorry. I've been haunted by my guilty conscience ever since... ever since the king had asked me to do it." Ado's head hung down, low and heavy with guilt. Ado had been expecting to be slapped with words of anger,

    The golden rays of the sun broke out through the thick, dark clouds that were slowly dissipating away. The sun sat above the golden capped mountains in the west, about a few minutes before it would rest from a long day of work. The bright light vanished and the small crystal ball fell on Keir's chest. Then it slowly disappeared as soon as it touched his skin. Kalen was greeted by the silence of the world. The thick fog was cleared and the sky was full of hope. But for him, it wasn't the same sky anymore. It was the sky of new life and new beginnings. He looked around and everyone was lying on the ground. There was no trace of Purple Smoke. But he recognised Méah's figure lying ahead of him for half a mile away by her clothes and armour. However, as much as he wanted to check on them, he would have to chose his brother first who was lying right next to him. But judging on Keir's injuries, Kalen decided not to touch him. The arro

    "Useless!" Purple Smoke screamed in both fury and disappointment. She hated it when someone fails her and had a long history on it. To her anger, struck Méah with her palm on the chest. Méah flew a few yards away from where she stood. But she didn't complain. For Purple Smoke was her master and the only one who has the authority to do anything to her. She rolled on the ground for a couple times and spat out black blood. She was on knees but her face was still blank and didn't show any hint of pain. Purple Smoke faced Keir and the princess's body. Her vision quickly darkened. "Love. This is what love bring to people. What a pity. They're even willing to die because of it." She grinned. While she was feeling the moment of victory, she heard a swooshing blade coming from behind her. She quickly avoided it and saw Kalen. "Oh, another silly boy. But I like you already. You're braver than your brother." "I w

    After they ran away and the battlefield was almost emptied, Purple Smoke was furious when she saw Méah kneeling on the ground, frozen like a statue. She couldn't believe a simple trick could affect Méah. "Come, my dear." Purple Smoke walked in front of Méah. She bent down and held Méah's chin up. Black and purple veins appeared on her neck down to her arms. Then all of it crawled into Méah's chin down to her neck, spreading towards her back. Her injuries were healed and the arrows were burnt into ashes. Méah stood up straight. "Avenge yourself. Kill them all. Kill." Purple Smoke whispered to her ears. "But first, I want you to do something." Then, Méah suddenly disappeared in Purple Smoke's eyes. She was now off to do what she's told to do. Purple Smoke burst into a boisterous laughter. But she eventually stopped when a loud blow of horn was caught in her ears. Among all the four kingdoms, only one would use horn

    The three of them were in utter astonishment when they saw the enemies were swarming again. They had no idea where they came from but now they seemed stronger than those that they fought with earlier. King Astius shoulders dropped. At the other end, he saw the Deep Caves and everyone struggling to defend it. The enemies were about to break in. "What the hell! They're like locusts!" Keir cursed under his breath. Suddenly, they heard screams coming from behind them, the main gate from the city of Noartias. As they turned around, they saw the remaining of their soldiers, the war veterans and majority of Eastian soldiers who were assigned to defend the city. They were rushing to the battlefield, ready to give their life for the sake of the world. And then, they joined them to launch an attack on the battleground. Weapons clashed hard against each other. Some tasted flesh, blood and bones. Blood were splattered everywhere, leaving a crimsom

    "Oh no! They're here! They're breaking in!" Queen Jainah cowered into the corner of the room in the royal underground where they were hiding. Princess Jiyanah sat down with her, arms snaked on one arm of her mother. King Ambrose wasn't there with them because he was out in the battlefield. Unlike Noartias, Eastias don't have any shelter like the Deep Caves but they have a vast underground shelter that they called as the Underground Shelter, enough to cater the whole kingdom's population. It has one entrance which can only be found in the secret chamber of the royal hall. The five exits extend in five directions away from the kingdom's borders. Four of it share the same distance while the other one was the longest which almost reaches the border's pf Noartias. King Zarduz was the first kingdom to surrender to Purple Smoke. Being named as the weakest, poor kingdom, King Zarduz chased the opportunity to get power, enough to purge a strong kingdom l

    Ferlah brought King Astius to the Deep Caves. After that, she left back to the battlefield outside. More enemies were coming. They don't seem to decrease at all. The more of them die, the more of them come. Prince Zaeius and the mysterious woman in red were trying hard to defend the door of the shelter. General Kapono was defending the walls together with the rest of the soldiers since the enemies were trying to climb up through tall ladders. Seeing all of these, King Astius didn't think twice to carry out his responsibility. He climbed to where the archers were stationed on the walls. "Aim for the enemies! Kill them! Leave none of them alive!" He shouted. Upon seeing his presence, the soldiers' morale was boosted. Their spirits soared high and their hearts filled with hope. From afar, Ferlah could be seen battling alone. She couldn't risk to transform herself so that she won't get exhausted when it was time to go

    When King Astius and the rest of the troops arrived at Noartias, they were flabbergasted by the army of the enemies flocking inside. Only a few of the war veterans were left standing, fighting bravely despite being outnumbered. King Astius was suddenly eaten by guilt. He blamed himself for not seeing the trap ahead of them which made him led the whole Noartian army into deception. The moment they stepped a foot inside the kingdom, the bloody clash began. The enemies looked like a swarm of locusts, attacking them in every possible way. There were clamours of death and courage as well as the shatters and clatters of weapons. Blood were spilled everywhere and the parched ground quenched its thirst through it. While King Astius was slaughtering the enemies, he suddenly remembered the prince. Fear struck him hard. He wished his son was safe in the royal underground as it was difficult to find. But judging from the prince's behaviour, he probably

    "Méah!" With eyes closed, Prince Zaeius screamed in terror and sat up from his sleep without even knowing. He just had a horrible nightmare about Méah dying, covered in blood and vanishing into thin air. However, even though it was just a nightmare, he began to pray to himself that it would only remain as a nightmare. As his breathing slowly calmed down, the throbbing pain came raging from all over his body, starting to penetrate deeper into his senses. He let out a painful hiss with a twisted expression as he went weak and limp, slumping himself back into the soft mattress of his bed. An agonizing groan followed that made him shut his eyes in a tight manner. With this, it all came back to him. But despite after being rescued and seeing the woman he loved in that situation, the flashes of tortures that he had gone through in the hands of Purple smoke held a consistent spot in his memory. That no matter how hard he tried to set

    The awaited dawn finally came. It was summer but the breeze, though it blew calm and gentle, felt like a touch of a blizzard's chill. Passing through the steep trails of well-tilled earth, forests, rivers and marshes, a couple of hundred thousand men set off from Noartias to the battlefield under the command of King Astius. This was the last number that he could bring with him. And not all of them were soldiers. Some were mere folks, men and women but brave and courageous, who voluntarily swore to protect their kingdom, their homes and their families. Every abled person in no particular age requirement were allowed to go to battle with them as long as they can walk at such distance and can ride on horses and fight with willingness. However, as he couldn't leave the kingdom and the people alone unguarded, he left this task to the war veterans of less than thirty thousand.
