There was a time when humans and demons were perpetually at war, but there was a time of lies and exploitation, where legendary men didn't know who the real enemy was.
"On the continent of Garmud, long ago, there were nine mighty kingdoms: Glorial, Gaelia, Sudomia, Beherenew, Kandomia, Filernia, Damagor, Hearaclia and Theraklion.
These nine kingdoms formed a powerful alliance, peaceful and just, or at least that's what they hoped for, because one day the alliance faced Garmud's greatest threat, Galam!"
This is what is written in every storybook but who would have thought that the fate of these countries would be written by the deeds of a young child? So curious, so harmless, so innocent, so... lucky and unlucky at the same time.
Our story begins in one of these nine kingdoms. It was the year 1242.
Child:You know Mom, I'm not sure Galam is that big danger that Dad talks about often.
Child's mom:Honey, you don't have to think about it too much, it is said that whoever has too many thoughts, when he gets the answer he will be very disappointed
Child:But what if what is written in the books is false? What if the Galamians are good people?
Child's dad:Impossible, Galamians kill visibly, subjugate people with dark magic, brainwash children and send them to special training camps to train them to fight against their own people, those criminals are more dangerous than you think, if you see a man with purple eyes immediately run away and call for help, are we explained?
Child:But...
Child's dad:Roy!!!
...Roy's dad:We understood each other?
Roy:Yes Dad
Roy's dad:So go back to your studies, you must become a wise and strong prince ... someday you will lead Beherenew's army against those criminals, like me
Roy:You've only gotten defeats so far
Roy's dad:For this you have to commit yourself...You'll see someday soon the infinite riches of that damned land will be ours
Roy:What?
Roy's dad:Um, I meant, someday we'll crumble their walls and annihilate those criminals once and for all
Roy:Yes, yes, always the same ... * thought * dad says the Galamians are ruthless killers, but I'm still curious to know what they really are...* thought * Purple eyes, right? Well, you gave me a way to recognize them, thanks dad.
Later that evening
The young prince stood on the veranda of his room looking at the stars
Roy:I have decided, tomorrow I will go to Galam, I just have to ask my father to get me the escort, I'm sure he will say yes
The morning after
Roy's dad:No
Roy:Dad, why?
Roy's dad:It's too dangerous, I already told you how things are, stay away from those criminals
Roy:You can say what you want, but I don't judge who I don't know, if they are criminals for you, not for me
Roy's dad:Thats enough! Go back to your room
Roy:But ...
Roy's dad:Roy! ... Go back to your room ... you, make sure he really comes back, and stays there until lunchtime
Guard:Yes, your majesty
The guard accompanies the young prince to his room
Royal Counselor: Your Highness, I believe that not even an oak door can hold back your child's desire to travel to that land.
