Siena: hey guys this idea was something me and Reckury and I thought alot about and we were going to post this anyways but its posted now since it was suggested by a good fan and friend.

Yup this is what I left out of the backstory since it wasnt really relevent. So enjoy a tale of "my" past as well aas Yiora Azores. oh ya this was written on a word document so if it looks a bit odd its normal

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Most of you probably now my tale, how I was king, lost my kingdom, got it back again and ruled with my guild along side of me. Everything was fine until betrayal raised; the women I loved broke my heart and destroyed this kingdom, now all that stands of Yiora Azores is a bunch of burnt and destroyed ruins. Most of you heard of me, the fallen king, and now the king of fallen angels. Before all this, I was a happy king with a perfect life, kingdom and family. Don’t get me wrong, I enjoyed my time with Xesus, it was just so much simpler back then, in simpler times, times where light and peace were without interruption for centuries . Ever since Xyn was locked up years ago when all the fallen angels died in a devastating war, which devoured so many lives and broke families.  My life was of a simple and humble king, I was just and generous. The town’s folk would shear my name and darkness feared my name.  Sometimes I wish I was back in those days.

It was a nice and quiet week, once again I, Reckury, was strolling around the streets of this joyous town. It did good to hear the children run around and laugh. I past the fountain, like always I read the words carved into it and reminisced on how I became king. This kingdom held a very big secret. This town was run by a king named Magnus, I had come across him on many of my missions, because before I was king I was an adventurer, I helped the helpless and rescued the captured. Magnus made me do several jobs for him, which he paid a hefty price to be executed. All through these quests I had my suspicions, that something was wrong, but I ignored it. After a while I retired my adventurer life and decided to be a peace keeper, most of the time I was sending messages from Magnus to other kingdoms. I had fallen in love with one of the king’s slaves, her name was Luna. She had white hair and white gold eyes; she was dressed in rags, like all the other slaves. She knew something she wasn’t supposed to, she knew Magnus dark secrets. Turns out the king was dark, evil. He was a collector, he captured beasts and drained there magic to make weapons. Also, he was behind many assassinations of other kings, so he would gain control of these kingdoms. Yiora Azores is a small kingdom which overlaps other small kingdoms, each representing another element, so by controlling all them, mean you have a gauntlet to invade many lands. One day, Magnus pushed it too far; he destroyed my home town as well as Luna’s. That night, a storm was brewing; heavy rain was falling on my head, loud thunder over lapped my rage and bursts of lightning light up the dark night sky. Magnus wanted my head, so I decided I’d take his before he could take mine. I shot a few guards in the neck and murdered assassins before they could do the same to me. I had broken down the doors to the throne room

“Well, well, Reckury. Looks like you decided to confront me, too bad you must die” Said Magnus as he made the roof above me collapse.

Little did he know that the “me” in front of him was an illusion. I was actually behind him and as he turned around I sliced his head off. The storm cleared up, and I stepped out onto the balcony where the people assembled below.

“Your king is dead. This evil is gone; your king was behind many assassinations and created dark magic weapons.”  I said

“Who will rule us know?” asked Luna

“I will…..I shall be your new king and my first decree is that all slaves are to be released and that people’s riches will be returned to you. My second, is for you Luna”

I got down on my knees, grabbed her hand and said “Luna Muliona, will you be my queen” unable to put words in her mouth she nodded and 3 months later we were married and ruled side by side. 2 years later, we had a healthy baby girl named Marisa. Life was great, I stopped wars, I was king who held peace. I even stopped an execution of a dragon, because I saw in his eyes that he was like me, different. They wanted to kill Elax, because they wanted to use his scales for weapons.

Me and Marisa would oftenly walk into town, she was usaly on my shoulders. She was literaly the spitting image of her mother, she was such a kind and sweet little girl. She wanted to be a great wizard like her father, so from time to time I would take her on some of my trips to the magic festivals, where she could see any type of magic she wanted. She had the potential to use any magic she wanted, she said she wanted to be a celestial wizard. So I got her some keys, I managed to get her a few cute and adorable ones she could play with, I was goingt to give her on her 6th birthday but unfortunatly she died before that.

Luna was a lunar mage, she was like a dragon slayer, her magic, was very powerful but only worked under the moon. She always wanted a lunar stone, necklace. I was going to give it to her on our anniversary, which, as faith had crualy planned, was that day.

Everything was great until that day. It had started like any other, I was walking in town, like usual, and the daughter of the florist gave me a crystal rose. Then I walk to different post of my guards, everything was typicaly normal. I had headed to the puppet show, that I had set up fro the children of the region. I decided to give it a try for myself, turns out I was to bad since the kids seemed to love it. The day was very calm and that afternoon, me and Marisa walked in the courtyard, she wanted to feed Elax again, those 2 were unseperable. I was called to the front gate of the kingdom, they had captured another dark summoner. He was cloaked and had blood red eyes, I had look in deeply in his eyes and I could tell he feared me. I gave the signal and they dragged him in a magic cancelling cell. That night we had extra security, around the cell block, since we had a new prisonner and we knew he ws going to try to escape, there was just one problem we were expecting something to break in not break out. I completly oblivious about what was going to happen. Me and Luna where sitting in the our seats in the throne room, enjoying the laughter of Malisa. Ever since, she was little she enjoyed the town jester. We were also watching a meteor shower it was very magical.

I was unaware of the fact the a Xyn's elite and skilled assasin  was knocking out guards left and right and was heading to the prisonner block of the castle. She had made it to the back wall and she knocked out the final guard. She must some explosives on the wall and she ran. The wall exploded and every single prisonner emerged. The summoner made creatures emerge from the groudn and made meteors fall down upon the kingdom.  From these more creatures emerged, the guards couldnt handle it all, so some of the citizen decided to fight some off. We had no clue what was happening, until the messenger walked throught the door, and colapsted. His back was cover with arrows, his blood had started to spread over the floor. I ran to the armory, left my crown, took my sword I killed Magnus with and ran to the fight. I killed many but seeing families broken at my feet and no one left standing but me I ran back up threw my sword and took my family, to the ahllway over the chasm. We would have been same if we would have made it to the end, but creatues were hot on our tail. We were so close until vipper showed up and kicked me forward and blew up the tunnel. I was seperated by my family, who fell straight down to there death. Trying to save myself I ran and never turned back. I never used my Luna or Malisa's magic ever again, and I made a pendent with the lunar stone, which held a picture of them and I kept Malisa's keys just in case I would need then. Elax and I didnt see each other for a very long time, but he was just a wing flap away. It couldnt face anyone ever again
