1881 2nd week of The 7th month, Evening

The royal house of Rodina

Impressed with the introduction young Kiano dropped, the king nodded with a slight smile that his daughter's shared, while the elders wore a dissatisfied look that didn't miss the eyes of the young emperor, "you look just like your mother and your aura is like that of your father's" Rodina's empire pointed out to the kid who showed gratitude for the comment by bowing and said, "Thank you, but I'm afraid father and mother is no more", "I'm fully aware" said the king while noticing the pain the young emperor tried to hide with his face to the ground, "I'm sorry for your loss" said Rodina's crown bearer, "Your parents were good people and we of Rodina owe them a great deal of debt", "tell me, what are your intentions from this point on?" asked the king, the boy raised his head and stared directly into the kings eyes, his rage and anger was not missed by any in the room as he replied saying, "all of those scums who dared to turn my heaven to hell, I'll make sure they get a taste of hell themselves", damira whistled with admiration at the boys raging aura.

Somewhere within the Hellfire desert

A group of four, dressed in a purple and black desert attire roamed the desert in a desperate search, they stopped at a point with a small stone statue placed as a marker, "we wait here", one of the men suggested and sat in front of a fallen tree and placed his eyes in the horizon for anything that could lead to something, "Boss!" another one called out to the one sitting and asked, "we've been here a week", "and?" his boss replied with a hint of dissatisfaction, "don't you think we should go back? I mean, there's no way we'll find him in this vast dessert" the party member uttered, "and from the looks of it, a sandstorm is coming" he pointed out to his leader who already had his full attention on the storm and a slight anger over the messed up situation their in, "there nowhere to go back to without the kid and the artifacts" the boss replied and continued "so it's best we let the storm bury us out here in the desert than to go back to Wura without completing our mission And have Our heads chopped off and staked outside the palace wall as a statement", His worried follower asked again, "What do we do now?" the man asked again, "sheera!" the leader called loudly, "yes" one of Chad followers who was apparently a female replied, "build a stone wall around us", he placed his order to the woman who started doing as he asked, "we weather the storm, and continue afterwards", with the stone wall getting built from sheeras magic and the storm increasing in size and approaches them with a lot if wind, the group couldn't help but worry when sheera said, "boss, making this is piece of cake, but I don't think it'll hold against that, even with reinforcement", "look!" another one yelled and pointed to a figure within the storm, "is that a person?", asked their leader, "I think so" the one who made them aware of the distant figure said, "and he's walking into the storm" said the leader with speculation written on his face, "what do we do?" sheera asked, "we follow him", "into the storm?", the first worried guy asked, "yes Ba'quay, into the storm".

Wura empire

The emperors library

"any news from Vlad and his team?" a beautiful black hair woman asked as she made her way into the library she towards the shadowy figure standing with a book in his hand and more books scattered at his feet, "no" the shadow answered, "your hair" said the shadow, "you likes" she asked and displayed a lusty smile towards the shadow man, "it's acceptable " he replied and flung the book in his hand to the ground, "nothing in that one too huh", she asked again, "not a clue on how to open that damn vault", "you should rest, put down the shadow for a bit", she suggested, "we already own the whole place, "the kingdom belongs to kenan, what we own is in that vault"The shadow stated, "well", she said in a sly tone, "I have no intentions of been the emperor", he said, "look at you, refusing all of this" she got close to him with that statement and wrapped her hands around his neck passionately and said, "I hope you won't refuse this too", she moved her lips in to kiss him while he dropped the shadow around him to reveal a his face, long black hair she a scar from his eyes to his mouth, their lips touched, he carried her to the desk nearby and dropped her on it while continuing in their sexual adventure that ended shorty when they heard the sound of a throat getting cleared by the open door, "y'all are fun" the person by the door spoke up, "if it isn't kenan, ruining my fun as usual", "well sis,you'll have to forgive me" he said shrewdly and walked towards them, "how's the breaking of the vault coming?"he asked, "the mages are useless" replied the shadow man with his shadow mode back on, "I'm afraid we have to wait for Vlad to deliver, "hmm" kenan uttered while boldly looking into the eyes of the shadow, "you have a week Diz, one week to crack the safe and get the fuck out of my kingdom".

Back in Rodina, the 7th prince walked out of the palace with Dalia, he looked slightly angry while looking at the dagger in his hand, "calm down a bit, father has agreed to help you" said Go happy Dalia, "no! He said he'll help me if I can prove my worth" Kiano said back, "and? Do you think you can't prove your worth?" she asked again to move the young man into more anger, "what do you mean? Of course I can", he answered with a raised voice, but Dalia only smiled more, "then all the more reason why you should calm down", she said again, "You should listen to her", Damira said while appearing like a ghost in front of then, "Apparently she believes in you,and trust me, that's something our family don't usually do", "sister Mira" Dalia called out happily, All of that anger you're feeling, use it, use it to get stronger and when you do, we will match and take back what's yours","Lia , I trust you'll keep taking care of him", "yes sister Mira" answered Dalia, "bring him to the dark house when you're done here for today", suggested damira who opened her hands in front of the prince, "your dagger!", she requested, "what? Why? I just got it back!" Kiano responded with a bit of surprise and decline, "I'll give it back to you when you get to the dark house, besides, you won't be needing it here", the boy looked past her and knot the training ground in front of him, "alright" he said and handed it to her, "good boy" she responded, "you better not lose it" said Kiano to damira who was already gone with the wind.

Dalia and Kiano walked into the training hall, it was filled with many different equipments but what caught the young man's attention the most was all the students groaning in pain on the ground, and their Very dark red haired teacher who had a wooden sword that was responsible for all the bruises the had, "that's big brother Del", Dalia notified him "he's the instructor here", "wrong!" deal said from a far, "I'm in charge of turning young spoiled kids into warriors", Kiano had a concerned smirk that drew a bit of sweat from his face due to Del's presence and the students on the ground, "I think these lot aren't ready for be Warriors yet" Kiano stated and earned a butter feeling from the trainees who shouted "hey, watch it, who hell are you to talk", "true, they are not ready" del said to confirm Kiano's remark, "what about you? Do you think you have what it takes?", del asked as he threw a wooden sword to the young emperor who caught it only to receive a drop sword attack from del who rushed him like a leopard after his prey.

Kiano manage do grab a hold of the sword properly and thought to move to the side to avoid the weapon dropping in on his head, but as he thought to move, he noticed Dalia was still close to him and his evasive maneuver would end up putting Dalia right in front of Del's attack, "Dalia would be caught in the this if I move that, way" he thought and held his ground, "guess I'll have to take this head on" Kiano thought again and decided to swing his sword to clash with del, with a loud scream, Kiano had all his force fused in the woods sword and clashed with del before Del's swing got to him, a slight golden aura enveloped Kiano's sword before it clashed and shattered alongside Del's sword.

The whole training ground was caught of guard by the ongoing situation and couldn't help but fall into surprise, Del's sword broken halfway, Kiano's sword broken halfway too, while del seemed okay, Kiano's palms was completely filled with Bruises, his breathing was accelerated and his eyes looked tired but filled with a Tiny bit of Rage, "you are one interesting guy" del said over 's smile, "I knew you were made of steel when I found you lying in the desert", Kiano eye fell wide open as he looked at del, "you were the one who brought me here? ", Kiano asked, "yes, damira and I found You, and from then, I knew you were made for more, for you to survive all those miles and then collapse just a few more steps from Rodina's entrance", the young prince was surprised, "I can see you still have that grit, good! Because you'll need it if you want to survive my training menu, and unlike these pipsqueaks" del pointed at his students behind him, "I'll be giving you the full dose", Kiano's face turned serious with his brows pressed down as he said, "I'll be expecting nothing less" and then he bowed, "I'm in your care".
