Lunar Eclipse

Shadow Dynasty

Inside the grand hall, many seats were arranged in front of the throne. There were four golden seats just adjacent to the throne. They were reserved for three prince and the prime minister of the Dynasty.

Second prince was 30 years old but he was already at peak grandmaster level. His eyes were slightly red and his face was pale white. He wore a black robe on which was a very lifelike design of white skull. He was carrying two black blades. His expression was very playful and full of arrogance.

Crown prince wore a red robe. Except for his handsome looks he looked completely ordinary. He was 50 years old but looked much younger. He gave the impression of nobility. No weapons could be seen on his body. The saying was, even the enemies that had died from his hand couldn't see the weapon until their throats had been slit apart. A charming smile was always present on his face and no one had ever seen him getting angry.

Prime minister was covered in black mist and his face and age couldn't be seen. Every prime minister of the Shadow Dynasty would look the same. So no one knew if the prime minister had changed or still the previous one except the royal family. Some people even joked that," prime minister is alive from the beginning of the Shadow Dynasty."

Emperor looked very old and his eyes were closed but everyone was alert. They knew that nothing could be hidden from him. He had a massive built and was 7 feet tall. A greatsword was half buried in the ground just right side of the throne. According to Emperor only 3 people were worthy enough for him to draw the greatsword so it was left in the ground.

Third prince was kneeling in front of the Emperor as he explained about the strange boy in the forest. Grandmaster lin was on bed rest and had been crippled for life.

"So according to you a 10 year old boy defeated grandmaster lin", Emperor opened his eyes and looked straight into the eyes of the third prince.

"Yes"

Third Prince spoke like he was in the trance without thinking. Emperor again closed his eyes and the third prince came to his senses.

There was pin drop silence in the hall.

A ten year old boy defeated a peak grandmaster. It was not a small matter, the boy had surely touched the mystic level.

" Three Mystics were dispatched from the Ka'al to deal with the sun Dynasty. Even though we won but all of them died," Emperor spoke slowly.

" Three Mystics died in the battle of mortals", everyone exclaimed.

Emperor continued,"Sun Emperor had a son around 10 years of age and had gone missing after the war. Every single mystic realm expert is too precious and we have already lost three and all of them were from the headquarter. Saint Dynasty would also know about it soon. They would surely try to recruit the boy and you all already know the signicance of a 10 year old mystic. The boy must not be allowed to grow under any condition. If we or Ka'al intervene then saint Dynasty would surely notice and we can't allow them to know about our findings of temple of life."

Emperor opened his eyes and looked towards the crown prince.

Crown prince stood up as he said respectfully," I will take care of it."

Emperor nodded towards the prince in admiration and next second the throne was empty. Emperor vanished from everyone's sight.

Meanwhile....

Danteluri Dynasty

Shiva asked Aaroh," Were those three Mystics? And where did they come from?"

Aaroh answered," This matter is not as simple as it seems. First you should know about the top dynasties. They are Shadow Dynasty and Saint Dynasty and their origin is not simple. Both of them have Mystics and they are supported by the two mysterious groups. Both of them don't usually come out in public and live deep in the forest. One is Ka'al and another is Sattva(light). Both are very powerful and have experts who have surpassed the mystic realm. Ka'al's interference in the sun and moon Dynasty war has something to do with temple of life. If you want to know the answer then you should go to the Shadow Dynasty but to reach there you should first cross the saint Dynasty."

Shiva was surprised about the deep knowledge of Aaroh. Shiva felt like Aaroh knows everything and had a feeling that he was not explaining everything purposefully.

Aaroh looked at Prince Pranay and softly said," My work here is done after waiting for 25 years and I will leave shortly but I have seen you growing up day by day and you are like my half disciple so I will give you a advice , follow shiva and we will meet again."

After that he glanced once towards the shiva and left the garden.

Only after he disappeared into the darkness both of them looked towards the bonfire and they were shocked.

The fire danced in the air and few words appeared.

" I can't decide your path, so I won't help you in your journey, the help that I have given is already the most I could give. But I will give you a hint - Lunar Eclipse."
