ORION
We were the last ones to arrive at the meeting.
The last time there was a meeting like this was when they signed the Treaty of Aaval fifteen years ago.

I hate coming to the Government Lands.
It used to be the Enchanted Lands, but between the genocide and the exodus, now it's just a concrete metropolis. And all the magic of the land, burried underneath.

-How the fuck do you excuse their disappearance, then? - King Solace of Innanty was beyond furious.
-My only daughter, my heir, is gone without a trace for 4 days, and if it wasn't for my spies, we wouldn't know shit about it.- The king lost his temper completely.
- She was supposed to be safe here.- He rose from his seat, his power was palpable in the room. Without moving from his place, he lifted the government representatives and pinned them against the wall.
- We could end this the same way we started it twenty-five years ago- "he added.
- Solace, please - called king Phaestos of Ertha-Vulkan. - violence is only going to make this worse. Think about Sahara, please. My boy is missing too, and I'm not opening sink holes in the city. Please move them back to their seats.-
King Solace did as his long-time friend asked.

In the end, the meeting left nothing good. If anything, it made everything worse.
The royal families were asked to return to their "Kingdoms" immediately.
On their way home, 3 Kingdoms declared themselves free and independent, and they declared war on the Government Lands.
Three blockades aren't allowing any ship to go from and to Pyros, Hydros, and Innanty.

To make all matters worse, I got word that my youngest sister escaped, and no one knows where.

I went out to patrol the city.
I went to all of Venus' favorite places; I talked to her classmates. Nobody knows nothing.

I was walking by the river, when I was hit in the head and everything went dark.
