The sky was tinged with a fiery orange as the morning sun began to rise with its warm flow enlighting everyone's life, and casting long shadows over the Union of Dukas.
Velian, his face etched with anger, paced back and forth, his mind consumed by thoughts of vengeance. His mother, Daphnia, lay on a nearby bed, her face looking much better than before and determined. Kyla, a trusted ally and a student of Daphnia, observed the tense scene, her usually bright eyes clouded with concern.
"They must pay for what they've done!" Velian seethed, his voice laced with bitterness. "They're hiding something demonic, Kyla. I can feel it. And it's because of them that my mother is injured! Just because I don't want to harm common people, they think they can play with me,"
"I decided. I will massacre every single one of them, and tomorrow night, this whole city will be on fire," Velian said and tried to leave, but Daphnia suddenly caught Velian by his hands.
