Currently in a luxurious room in a beautiful palace which was decorated with a white and blue theme.
A cute and charming boy could be seen on the bed with his beautiful white haired mother. The boy was sitting on the lap of the woman as she read a book. It was currently night time outside so probably she was reading him a bedtime story.
The boy was obviously Lucas and his mother was obviously Athanasia. They were cuddled up while reading a short story book.
" A long time ago there were many races around the world." Athanasia said in a commentators tone.
" But the different races were not able to coexist with each other, that's why they were constantly in a state of war. Within this war the ones who suffered the most were the human race as they were the weakest." Athanasia continued.
" In these humans an individual was very special. When everyone from his race wanted to give up and accept their fate he relentlessly kept fighting and struggling."
" He was a talented human and also a great hard worker. Seeing him many other humans also followed his footsteps and tried to resist this misery that was befall upon them. In just a few years he had an army which was strong enough to resist the torment of the other races."
" But that was not the end of their misery as that individual knew that even if they got a little stronger they wouldn't be able to resist for much longer and peace would become just a pipe dream. After all, no matter how strong he was, the limitations of race cannot be changed."
" That's why he found the best possible solution to his current predicament. He went to ask help from the Great White Dragon of Calamity. This dragon didn't interfere in the wars of races due to many reasons."
" When this weak but brave human came into the presence of the White Dragon he was terrified by the majesty and power of this dragon. The dragon understood this and used magic to look like a human so the human won't fear him. The dragon became a beautiful woman which caused the human to become even shyer and timid."
" But he still asked the White Dragon for help. The Dragon was too lazy to help him but she still decided to test him."
" She said,' I will create a pact with you but it's up to you whether you will be able to accept it or die. If you are able to accept it then I won't just give power to you but also your future descendants.' she smugly said because she didn't believe that a mere human would be able to handle even an ounce of her power. That's why she believed that he would probably chicken out."
" But he bravely agreed to her condition as he was prepared to die decades ago when he was just a weak human. He passed the test after much struggling and finally the White Dragon had to give him her powers."
" With the powers of the White Dragon he defeated the leaders of the other races and pushed them back creating an empire of his own while he became the emperor of it and his descendants who still borrow the power of White Dragon protected this empire finally creating peace." Athanasia finally concluded. She was hoping that her son might have slept already but he was still wide awake looking at the book.
He pointed his index finger at the book and said :-
" Thish dragon ish stupid."
Lucas was still only three years old and that's why his tone was still not clear and even a bit childish but Athanasia loved the way he talked and even found it funny.
Hearing her sons sentence Athanasia she had a worried smile like someone has stepped on her tail and said :-
" I-I don't think she was that stupid....and how many times have I told you that you shouldn't use words like stupid. It is bad manners."
She frowned hearing her son's use of words. Recently her son has started to make proper sentences but he also has started to use bad words. From where does he even learn these words !? Then she remembers that she might be the one who is using these words.
Hearing his mothers nagging had become a day to day thing for Lucas but he was more interested in why his mother tried to defend the dragon from the story.
Lucas has not been doing much since the day he was born. He drinks milk, sleeps and plays with his mother and that's it. Well, even if want to do something else he can't do it due to his weak baby body.
Once he tried to go on the adventure by exploring the room but just when he was about to move out of the prison (Cradle) Athanasia his mother appeared and put him back in the cradle.
Recently he has also started walking and that's why he looks around for minimal things just like a normal child who is curious about their territory (Room/House).
He is not even allowed to come out of his room. He can only see a big lawn outside the window. He even tried to persuade his mother to take him outside but she always refuses saying that it is dangerous.
He has found many weird things about this place like he doesn't know who his father is as he didn't even come to see him. No not just his father Lucas has not seen a single being in this house except for his mother of course but he didn't find it creepy. His mother loved him and he knew it was maybe due to their bond or something.
What he truly finds creepy is that his mother has never called by a name or more like she has not given him a name. She only refers to him by nicknames like little one and my baby. Truly Creepy.
