        Sixteen years prior to current events, there was a tall man in grey robes and matching hood, strolling outside the castle in the pouring rain. He found a small basket with a blanket covering it. This man picked it up and tore off the blanket, to see a sleeping child. He brought it in the castle, the astronomical stone beauty it was, with three flags flowing in the wind atop, one being Elven, another Human, and the last one Dwarven. As he entered the castle, six pillars, three on each side, lite up the red rugs leading to the two thrones at the end of the hallway. There was a three year-old girl playing with stuffed dragons and bears, and she stared at the man when he walked in. "Daughter, do you mind me borrowing your room for a night?" he asked in a deep, yet friendly voice. She nodded and continued playing. The man trotted up the mahogany stairs and laid the child on the purple-colored silk bed. He then put clothing on the child and tucked him in. 

        The day after, the man sat at the child's feet smiling. "Ah, hello lad. Come with me, I have something for you." The man left the room and looked back. "Are you not coming?" The child shrugged and tilted his head out of curiosity. "Oh....could it be you are blind lad?" The child's eyes were pale as a blind one's would be. The confused two year-old shrugged once again as the man's hands glow yellow as he covered the child's eyes, not like the poor boy would notice. He then gave a hardy laugh as the child blinked rapidly, his eyes becoming dark brown rather than pale. The child bolted out of his bed and started shoving his face into the wall, the blankets, the floor, and the man's leg."Ah, so you can run but I do not imagine you can speak?" the man chuckled.

"I believe I can." The child said in a clear voice.

"Ah! You be only two years of age and you can speak fluently! Amazing!"

"But sir, how come I can see things now? I just thought the world was black..."

"My dear boy, I used something called light magic, it is of the hardest to learn. I can also cure those who cannot speak, hear, or walk." The child jumped with excitement before saying,

"Can you teach me sir?!" The man chuckled,

"Boy, I can teach you more. You can run and talk fluently at two years of age, I imagine you will not have issues learning. Come." Sun nodded as he and the man walked out of the room.

        Heaven woke up to Ray and Sun staring down at her. Ray was in panic while Sun, as usual, just stared down at Heaven unemotionally. "Princess! You were asleep for an entire day!"

"I just told him you were tired.." Sun rolled his eyes. Heaven sat up in her bed.

"I am fine, the dream was worth the day. Sun, how is your plan moving along?"

"It is still waiting to be started."

"What?!?! Two days pass and it is still not active? How are you the royal strategist?" Ray exclaimed. Heaven put her index finger over Ray's lips,

"He is there for a reason, so shush before he does what he did the the Dark Army to you." This made Ray calm down and be quiet immediately. Sun then walked out of the room, with his hands in his pockets, only to pass out as soon as he exited the doorway. 

        Heaven screamed and Ray continued to freak out as they saw him fall, it was as if time slowed, and Sun left sparkles of light in the air as he brutally descended into the floor. Immediately the two rushed to his side, attempting to wake him up with healing potions and such, but he just lay there. Heaven knew Sun never slept, he just could not, even under a sleeping spell or potion he stood awake.

        There Sun stood on his pillar, facing his opposite. The wind blew to make his and Moon's hair flow like the feathers of birds. "Your actions to stop the Revolution make me sad, I know you are foolish, but you cannot be so foolish." Moon smirked as he said.

"Moon, to take the body now is a bad option. Right now, I bet you two people at least are at my side, take it now and get murdered with me." Sun equally smirked.

"I do not wish to take the body yet, for the time would be wrong. In time it will come, I promise."
