The Gods themselves had gifted that poor world that woman. She wasn't human. That much was clear to Eden. But agreeing on being with her for four weeks definitely wasn't gonna be regrettable.
Her name was confidential. At least, that's what she said when asked about it. Poor kid didn't even understand what that meant since he was only six!
Of course, Eden didn't even know what a week or a month was. Not because he was six, but because they took time as day and night. After all, that world wasn't perfect with tyranny in the five nations.

"What am I supposed to call you then, since you aren't telling me your name?.." She had taken him to some weird looking dungeon with pillars, which looked more like ruins of a temple.
"That is for you to decide, child. Just... make sure it is not something weird." It was unnatural, of course, but she was floating in mid-air, hands behind her back. "Your wish is to overthrow the Five Kings. I shall honor that decision and do as you wish. This is a child's dream, but one that even the elders have..."
"Soo... you're gonna help us and get rid of the Five Kings? Everyone has been suffering because of them. They're greedy, oblivious, and filthy, more filthy than any of the people on the street..."
"Do not compare filthiness and a good life. I already got the picture of them through. But I shall not intervene with your anger. Just do not cross the line. Anger doesn't always bring us far. Rather, it can bring us deeper down." With that, her voice went quiet.

ZICHOME: AVARITIA HARANAE
"Sir, the messenger came back with news."
"Good. The news better be good." The king said. The bedroom is where the king spent most of his. Be it eating or having his own harem. And what could others say to it. Nothing.
The place was as quiet as silence itself. Only the usual munching of food, sipping, and goblet thumping broke the choking silence. Coming from the king himself.
Then the messenger -Rotho- came in. Being in their king's presence meant they would be shaking out of fear. Would it even matter what their opinion was on how the king dines.
"The king of Sidus Magus believed you. It is not your fault that the desert is becoming bigger and expanding itself into Sidus Magus. Just as you said."
"... Leave. You've done what was needed." The messenger nodded and finally left. And as always, the king resumed his dining.
