Memento_

There has ever been one Emperor of the Eternal Skies and after his disappearance, the Empire fell back into its days of warring, and no one dared to call themselves by that name! 

But Atrox Soryu dreamed of uniting the Empire as the rising star of his Clan. He had the charm and the potential but then it was discovered that he carried the Forbidden Mark Order.

A power that was feared and loathed. In an instant his world was turned upside down, his friends turned their backs on him and his father disowned him, calling him the shame of the Clan. 

He was sent to the borderland where monsters crawled from Rifts to conquer the world. It was here that he would know the terrible secret of the Forbidden Mark Order he carried and the inheritance that comes with it. 

He wanted to build an Empire and he would start from the borderland he was sent to, right from the labor camp.

Building An Empire Starting From The Labor Camp In Exile

When the dust cleared, there was no Yeti. The ground had cracked, and a smoking hole extended downward into near darkness.

Atrox saw dark stone and equipment that looked more like an alchemist's room. He narrowed his eyes when he saw blue blood splattered everywhere. "You're not dead."

"What are you talking about? You nearly killed me!" Serdan said as she walked closer to him, gingerly picking her way across the melted ground.

Atrox didn't reply to her. He waited until the others joined, and they all looked down at the new hole that led underground. Even Tiber and Slya had joined them after hearing the loud explosion.

Dlodus's eyes were on Atrox. 'No wonder he killed Alyndra... Can he still make such an attack after the first one? Something to know...'

"Are you going to go down there?" Slya asked.
