Chapter 1: Seriona Kingdom

A Kingdom that was a huge continent which ruled over a few centuries known as Seriona flourished and gained peace.
Now, the Kingdon is facing great difficulties and the country is in turmoil.
King Adrius, who had been in reign of 17 years, now bedridden.
No one knew the cause nor what sickness it was that made him that way.
With no ruler, everything was in chaos.
People were fighting over for authority and some, trying to kill the King.
As if that wasn't bad enough, there were many natural disasters going on everywhere in the continent which made the people suffer.
To make matters worse, the World Tree was withering.
Prince Garcle, the 3rd prince of the Kingdom, a well-mannered, fine , young man who loved his country deeply.
The people loved him fairly for how he treated every commoner and nobles as equals.
But his power wasn't enough as compared to his brothers.
The eldest prince, Prince Dominat, one who gained the most power amongst the 3, were a popular prince amongst the nobles.
He was one with charsima and also one who carried himself with elegance befitting of a King.
But he was a person who held grudges and is an extremely cunning person.
The 2nd prince, Prince Erdhart , like his younger brother, Prince Garcle, was a popular figure.
Prince Erdhart was charming, benevolent and also well-loved by everyone.
The prince was a wild, playful young man but he loved his country like his family.
He traveled many parts of the continents without the consent of the King by himself while also helping people and training himself.
Although he might not ascend to the throne, he knew deeply that no matter what, he had the responsibility to learn and to help his brothers whoever ascends to the throne.
And now, the country being in the state of emergence, he tried to push Dominat to do something about the pressing issues of the land.
But it was all futile. Only Garcle came to him after the news had reached him.
There was another who possessed authority.
The Minister who held half the authority and the Great General who had power over the army.
Those were the next two power that stood apart from the King himself.
Although the nobles fairly had some power but they wouldn't be as kind to give away their power nor would they combine their powers just for anyone other than gaining something else from it.
Lucky for both the princes, both the Minister and the Great General was of some influence by either princes.
Minister Abringham whom favours Prince Garcle and Great General Hades whom favours Prince Erdhart are in loggerheads everytime when they talk about both the princes.
But when it comes to their duty, they both put down the enmity and does their utmost loyal duty to their fullest.
Both Prince Erdhart and Garcle went to ask for advice from both the Minister and the Great General.

Since the King is bedridden, there has to be someone on temporary authority to give the commands.
Supposingly, Prince Dominat was to overseer the Kingdom.
But he had gone fooling around at some nobles' party again.
He had never cared about the affairs of the Kingdom except for riches and how he carries his charms and elegance.
He always was the vain and useless prince who cared nothing but himself.
King Adrius had never once pinned any hope on him as he knew he would one day cause the downfall of the Kingdom.
And the King was right, even now the temporary autocrat authority is passed to Prince Dominat, he still did not do anything for the country.
Now, the Minister and Great Genreal after having a pressing meeting with both the younger princes and other lords, had gain some supports.
There were strategies and many plans to be implemented throughout the whole land.
One of the ideas was to recruit Magic wielders to suppress natural disasters that came about.
Plans of sending groups of people to find out the cause of the problems and sending armies to help out the people in distressed were also implemented.
Prince Erdhart himself suggested that giving a team whom they trust to go on a trip to see how the country is doing and also to conduct investigations through covert duties.
He volunteered to go but was brought down by the Minister as it was dangerous and also the country could no longer afford to lose any of the royal families to harm.
Then, just as they were at the topic, someone came into the discussion.
It was Princess Vitiare, the youngest of them all and the only princess of the Kingdom.
She interupted the conversation and begged her brothers to let her go on this journey that wthey were just speaking of.
"I don't want to be closed in my room, void of any news and keeping myself safe from harm when all of you here are going to be doing something for the Kingdom. I will not tolerate myself having the title of a Princess but I can do nothing for this Kingdom I so loved." Princess Vitiare threw these words at the people in the room.
"Your Highness, please be appeased. Someone! Please bring the Princess back to her room for the moment!" the Minister said.
Princess Vitaire was unhappy but she knew she had to head back to the room if the Minister had spoken himself.
After the little commotion, both the princes had little conversations among themselves.
"After some considerations, both Garcle and I have agreed to let Vitaire to go on the journey she volunteered to. It is not because we want to spoil her. It is that both Garcle and I trust that Vitaire will do this her way well and also accomplish what we may not have expected. Also, I believe that she would grow to understand more of the world and be a better princess of our Kingdom. I hope there is no objections to this matter." Prince Erdhart spoke.
The discussion went a bit longer and argues about the princess being a woman to accomplish the task is rather tough.
"Please refrain from all of your thoughts of whether she is a woman or not. Vitaire has learnt combat ever since she was 3. She is no weak princess and all of you here should know that she is a talented magician and one of the most skilled of our Kingdom at that. She possess at least half of what both me and Erdhart's skills the most. We should have no worries on that. I also have some other people in mind that should accompany her on this journey. A knight and a priest shall accompanny her." Prince Garcle said.
