Long, long time ago, in a far kingdom, where it was still as one, there lived a wise sage known as Yulo the Great and Wise One, or Yulo. She founded the kingdom, Yaia. The people lived in peace and harmony; everyone is happy. Bountiful harvest for the plentiful people. The kingdom is so nice and great, many travelers from all places went for a visit, and some also chose to live in this kingdom of plenty.
This lasted until the great evil, the Devil King, appeared. The evil king, through his powers, destroyed the kingdom in one strike. But with Yulo's powers, on her last breath, she protected the kingdom. The land was saved, as well as the people. However, it is not without a price.
The kingdom was divided in two. One part of the kingdom was thrown to the far east, and the other was to the far west. The evil king finally disappeared, seeing the kingdoms became apart.
West Kingdom.
"Your Majesty!" the maid cried when she saw the king collapsed in the ground. She turned to the little child standing near them. "Your Highness, run!" she cried and pushed her.
"But - !" the child cried. The child looked around their castle that's all in fire and smoke.
"You must run, quickly!" the maid said. "He's after you - !" she told the child and coughed blood. She was heavily wounded! "Quick - !" she added.
The child cried, and turned to run. However, only to widen their eyes when they saw a figure in front of them, glaring at them with reddened eyes. "Oh my god – " the child muttered and collapsed after the figure attacked.
The child's vision turned black.
East Kingdom.
"Whoa! That's really amazing dad!" a young girl of barely eight years old exclaimed as she beamed. "Was it really true? Was it really true?" she asked excitedly with her eyes sparkling like stars as she stared at her father.
Her father, the king, laughed heartily. "Of course... not! That's just all a myth." He said and laughed again when he saw his daughter's face scrunched up.
She pouted. "Boo!" she said and ran to the terrace of the palace. "Then, what's that place there?" she asked and pointed to a giant castle afar only a silhouette can be seen in the horizon.
"Yelene!" her father cried and lifted her. He was frightened she would fall. He helplessly sighed at his daughter's mischievousness. "That's just another kingdom." He told her. "But our kingdom and that kingdom are not the ones from that story. That myth was just created to scare the children of the evil king." He explained to her.
"Boo!" she pouted as she finally gave up.
He laughed. "And the evil king also chases the children when it is night, and – " he put her down, giving her a chance to escape. As expected, she ran and he chased her
She giggled as she ran, only to stop when she saw something afar in the sky. "Father, wait!" she cried and ran back to the terrace. "What's... what's that?" she asked and pointed to the black smoke from the castle of the West kingdom.
Her father's eyes went wide. "Yelene, hide!" he cried and pushed her under the bed.
"What - ?!" she muttered, confused. She became curious to her father's sudden change in expression, and so she peeked from under the bed. She poked her head out, only to see the black smoke coming towards their way. Her eyes went wide when she finally saw the 'black smoke' as it neared them. "Father - !" she cried when the 'black smoke' finally arrived.
After that, she lost her consciousness.

"What do you want?" her father asked the man in cloak.
