 PROLOGUE:

  The moonlight passed through the large window of the Alder Mansion, illuminating the beautiful young lady sitting beside it who was cradling her child while singing to her the lullaby. Contrary to the serenity of the picture they make, the chaos outside was escalating.

"My lady you should hurry and leave, the rebels are winning" the servant said desperately but he got no response from his mistress.

The door to the room opened revealing a large man, bloodied and bruised. He was panting yet he still managed to ran to his wife and child.

"Alicia, what are you doing?! I told you to leave" he said as he knelt in front of his wife.

Her green eyes looked at his amber ones "We cannot escape our fate Lucas, but our child will, don't let me leave your side, we die together"

Lucas could see the resolve in his wife's eyes and he knew there was no changing her mind.

He turned to his servant "Bring the child away from here, raise my little one in secret, don't let the world know that my young is alive"

And so that night Lucas and Alicia Alder died, their young never found and was presumed dead.
