Once upon a time, there lay a kingdom build through blood and turmoil.
It was named the eternal kingdom ,this kingdom was known widely as The Lion Kingdom.
Its capital named Lionel was build with pure marble embellished with ancient runes dating back to the forefathers.
The ancestor of the lions that built Lionel ,the capital, and the kingdom as a whole.
Lionel Lion had foretold of a day and age where the lions would almost cease to be a noble house.
The prophecy was as follows:
When the mighty lion falls,
And the dragon rises,
An ancient evils,
Of untold power and deposition,
Shall meld and bend the minds,
Of the noble and weak minded ,
Destroy the lands,
Until a dragon shall rise,
From the ashes of a shattered realm,
Of the house of dragon that shall rise,
Born of a burning glory,
Born of blood,
Born of hatred,
Lead the realm he shall,
Save a realm he shall,
This message would be embellished in the ancestral temple ,of the lions, only through blood though would the messages be clear.Soon ,the lions would slowly regress their savage ways of violence and glory.They slowly became content in their current state.
However, a branch of the lions wasn't content and they led rebel and gather followers.
Establishing the House DragoOf course, the real reason of this untimely revolt was not as simple as it seemed.The Lion King of this time wanted the secret of the prophecy within the ancestral temple to be buried deep 60feet under with his death but his uncle Lapel Lion didn't renounce their savage ways and need for bloodshed.
So various prominent figures of house lion were lead by this Lapel Lion to take over the ancestral temple and take their prophecy from the Lions that had forsaken their ways.So Hereafter every Drago would learn of the prophecy and the reason for their inherent greed for blood.Undermining the grace of House Lion and stating for the need for the Dragos to seize the ancestral temple that so rightfully belonged to them.
Greed would envelop some branches of lions and they too rebel and establish the House Falcon.
That was also not the truest reason.This reason was because of the bending of reality using various misleading and demeaning remarks through propaganda.
The real reason was because of one Lionel Lion The Fourth he went mad for blood after renouncing it for years.His garbled, utterly gut wrenching speech maddened The founder of house falcon Jace Lion and he soon created a liquid remedy.To satiate the thirst for blood it was made from mythril and gold a very expensive remedy indeed it was.So they tried to plunder the lands to resist the abyss that was the darkness of thirst.
A thousand years later,the falcons and dragos would become an important part of the Eternal kingdom,The Lion Kingdom,hundreds of years prior Poratacus Lion established a small council featuring Lords that would control aspects of the kingdom for the King.This would be a critical error that allowed corruption to slowly engulf and infect the lords of the council.Seats in the council would soon be bought with coins.But a continuous variable would still be there .The Lord Of Coin was always the essential House Falcon.The Lord Of Army was always the vicious House Drago.
The Hand of the King,the right hand of the king, was always the brother of the king.
Unbeknownst to most a time of everlasting chaos ,war ,blood and glory would soon come ,under the rule of one bloke Tyberius Lion, paving the way to a new kingdom or perhaps a new Empire.
An empire built on glory.
