592 Years Later...
A dark hooded man ran through the shadows of the night. He climbed swiftly onto the top of the roof of the castle and dropped down silently, sneaking into the throne room.

He sees the king lounging around, eating the finest meat and drinking the finest wine on the planet. He shook his head in disgust. The people on the planet were starving and enslaved, while the king does nothing to help them.

The man steps out of the shadows, and instantly all the guards either recoil in shock or fear of the well known assassin.

The king took one look at the assassin and laughed.

"What are you doing in my castle? If you're here to kill me, you might a—"

Thwack.

A dagger appeared on the king's throat, and he slumped on his throne, dead.

The assassin walked up to the dead body, and grabbed his dagger. He twirled it around and looked at all the frozen guards in the room.

He nodded at them before disappearing in a burst
of flames.

He reappeared in a secluded area of the forest on the nearby planet of Neblós who recognised him as a friend.

He walked over to the nearby lake and put a magic barrier around him before taking his mask and hood off and staring into the water.

He looked almost exactly the same like all those years ago. Same tanned skin, same jet black hair.

But something in his eyes changed.

Instead of a plain old sea green, one of eyes were sea green and flickered with the warm orange fire of the earth. Another was a dark purple, but it flickered with a white mist. Gone was the playful spark in the person all those years ago, replaced by a cracked look in his eyes.
