HIROGERU (Season 2)

Episode 5 - Drought

Lucian was in the library of the Treyah Battle Academy as he searched for books. He was in the ancient summons section. He walked and examined the shelves. The books were systematically arranged by element innates and alphabetically ordered in terms of titles.

He stopped at the S section and began to run through the books with his hand by sliding them against the shelves.

“Here it is.” He said as he pulled out a book on the ancients starting with an S.

Lucian opened the book and immediately looked towards the table of contents section. He saw the name Samael in one of the pages and there was a lengthy outline on the said summon.

“Yup this is it.” He said. The calm soldier then walked to one of the seats near him and sat down as he once more opened the book.

Riffling through the pages of Samael’s discussion he began to learn that the said dragon was one of Ezreal’s sons.

“Ezreal was the keeper of the primary darkness.” He read from Samael’s ancestry stated in the book. “An offspring of Gaia from Chronus and the brother of Azrael.” He continued to read.

He turned to the next page and saw two black dragons beside Samael who was in the middle. The dragons were familiar to him.

“Tiamat and Bahamut.” Lucian said as he read the notes beneath the pictures. “Samael with his brothers Tiamat and Bahamut. They too are offspring of Ezreal with Bahamut being the youngest and Tiamat being the middle child.”

“No wonder he called us brothers.” He said as he continued to turn the pages of the book.

“The three dragons carry with them darkness energies of immense power. When harnessed they could reenact the trembling fearful power of Ezreal, who once walked this earth.” He read out loud as he closed the book. It would seem that Samael’s pertinent discussions end there. The book stated that for more information, the reader must read on the parts of Ezreal’s history in the world.

“What a drag.” Lucian said as he sighed. He stood up and returned the book to the shelf as he proceeded to look for data concerning this Ezreal.

It was night time now and still Seiryu and his comrades were still in prison. Draven was once again asleep on the bed while the former was looking through the railings of the prison cell door.

“I really need to get out of here.” He sighed as he leaned his head against the door.

Lei on the other hand was seated on the floor. She hugged her legs while she looked at him.

“You really should relax once a while.” She said to him.

“Yeah like freaking hell I can do that.” Seiryu said as he faced her. “The real Rogues are still out there.” He added. “I can’t rest easy.” He thought to himself.
