( I recommend to play the song  selected for the prologue )


The Sky represent the observant self
of the world , above everything , it claim the title of most reliable witness of history .

Our tale begin with five , far away from  the earth but reaching it with their light , five Stars found themselves aligned in one constellation ,on that particular night where rose the new flag as the symbol of glory , peace and power in honour of the new unified land .

The five Stars above this land are representatives of it's origines : when the land known as Musoka was dominated by five powerful and feared kingdoms who coexisted for centuries before being unified into the Wawanakwa Empire under the rule of Don the first who is now the supreme Ruler of all .

As for the fate of the ancestrals  Kingdoms , it was sealed when the rulers who resisted at first finally submitted to the new authority in exchange of conserving their leaderships among the territories they used to rule, making the kingdoms become imperials provinces with their lords as governors having only the emperor himself above .

With the peace treaty signed and the loyalty of his vassals ensured , the new emperor could start his era in peace and glory , the red flag wearing a majestic condor was raised .
Brave, charismatic, and gifted to be an excellent orator Don the first seemed to be meant for the imperial duty , his reign would be prosperous for sure .....  if only there wasn't a shadow in his light .

Being the last Survivor of his clan the journey from the lost tribal child to the owner of the throne was long and perilous, filled with losses , battles and sacrifices and even reaching his goal couldn't keep him safe from the curse cast on him while following his path .

Having for main purpose making sure his clan's bloodline ends with him , the curse would prevent him from having a heir , leaving the land's fate uncertain , until  hope made her way as the night falled , the astrologers could only watch mesmerized as the five powerfuls ( the name given to those stars in the memory of the ancestrals Kingdoms ) lined up to form one constellation who outshined the others , the explanation was given by the land's oracle who came up with  a prophecy :

" In this same year , are to be born five children from each of the governors
The condor will rise among them
While the light of the five will preserve his fate "

The news were quick to be spread among the whole territory causing everybody to question the state's ability to face the situation .

Then it happened .......
In the east , the province named Diaspora, celebrating the birth of a little heiress among the ruling family which added to the prophecy's validity , however the wise emperor decided that he wouldn't take action until the oracle's words were confirmed .

Time passed with the state being blessed each month with a new life expanding the governors lineages , until the last baby was born ,in a night where the new constellation appeared as bright as she was on the coronation day , giving the ultimate sign  everybody was waiting for .

On his majesty's order  six months later , were summoned to the capital the most influential and powerful among the nobles , including the five governors and their families , celebrations and joy among the entire city , the purpose of the gathering being the future and how it will be handled .

In the same evening a marvelous feast was thrown having the  new Imperial  decret announced to all :

- being the key of our glorious nation's future , the five newborn to each of our provinces , shall to this day be recognised as the empires children , are to be given the highest education under the imperial palace supervision  as they shall be given protection , honour and respect under the new distinction that is bestowed to them with to the title of great dukes and great duchess of the blessed Wawanakwa Empire.
-one  true heir will rise among them proving himself worthy of the throne by his behaviour , while the others shining under his light shall play their part and contribute by serving the state as nobles provincials .

While the cheers erupted in the ballroom , the five little stars , heroes of the day , completely oblivious to the events and mostly to their own implications , were peacefully resting in their cribs being the perfect mirror of innocence and purity .

Will that purity remain , and will she be subjected to the fate's selfish cruelty ?

Will those chosen descendants be able to find their path while being burdened by the prophecy and the whole land's expectations ?

"It is not in the stars to hold our destiny but in ourselves"
William Shakespeare
