Elementalia: The Two Sides

Chapter 02 - My Family - First Part

Year 5023, Saturday March 22, 17:00hs.
The four young heroes are back to their proper place after an active day. Walking along the path of white stones surrounded by rows of beautiful cherry trees, the heroes head to their homes. The cherry tree's petals vary in color from each tree showing beautiful blue, violet and pink tones that formed a majestic rain on the road.

Beyond, crossing all the way, one could contemplate a wall that separates the citadel between the different districts that conforms it from its interior. The wall of the mountain separated the district of the main city from the high society. The high society district was an exclusive place to which only members of the great Omni-El follower clans belong, clans that make up the "Mortal Legion", a military and religious force that fights for their god and teaches about his ideologies. In that district only the members of the clans can enter, is the place from where they direct to the citadel under the absolute command of the Sanders. However, there are those who have the unique permission to enter that district and those are the members of the five temples built for the gods in which all the inhabitants can pray to their god day after day. In the high society district also owns its own temple and only the priests of that temple or those of the other temples can go out and enter the district without undergoing the rigorous systems of control.

Niro and the others have approached the wall, they are not feeling uncomfortable at all to approach the gigantic door of glass and steel that is protected by more than a hundred expert soldiers armed not only with various weapons and armor, but all of them are experts in the use of Elemental Magic. So any confrontation against any soldier would be comparable to an attempted suicide. However, these soldiers are strictly trained to provide mainly protection to the district to the high society, or also known as Superior District, before the rest of the districts since the secrets that protect the Clans are the highest priority, something in which all the inhabitants of the citadel accept. After all, the objective of hiding from the world was to protect those secrets. And therefore, these soldiers will attack anyone who tries to violate the rules in front of them, and most likely end up silencing anyone who has seen or heard something that should not. And yet the four young heroes were advancing without fear to those soldiers who all dread.

- Luna: - Greets smilingly to the soldiers, guardians of the wall, as soon as she sees them - Good afternoon! How've your day been doing, guys?

- Soldier: - One of the soldiers responds to Luna with a friendly attitude that demonstrates the confidence he has with her - Hello Luna! Here we are, watching the wall as every day.

- Niro: - He approaches the soldier and greets them all cordially - Good afternoon to all. I am glad to see that you are well and nothing has happened today. How are your families and friends? Have you already organized anything for the festival tomorrow?

- Soldiers: - Everyone bows to Niro, Gino and Igna as they greet and respond respectfully - Good evening, Prince Niro, Prince Gino and Prince Igna, we are grateful for your return. Welcome to the Superior District! It is a pleasure to see you and to know how much you care about faithful servants who do not deserve such treatment. Our families and friends are well, and tomorrow we have orders to support the police during the festival while rotating shifts in order not to expose this district, O young prince! - All remain respectfully inclined before them three demonstrating their devotion to the Sander Clan.

- Niro: - Feeling uncomfortable about such welcome and devotion from the soldiers, he asks them to relax and treat him more informally - Eh... Well, well, I'm glad you're so... Enthusiastic, but please, treat me like one of you...
