Madamus: Black-hearted Sovereign

The Birth Of A New Generation

     Madamus and Benedict were two young lads from Asvaria, born with unimaginable dreams of reliberating their home from the corrupt hands of the wealthy and dominant empire, The Ermyn Empire. They strive to conquer the planet forest and ocean. And Asvaria was the closest and first towns to be conquered. With the strict commands of the Ermyns, the Asvarians lived in terror and unrest. A single threat or opinion against the Ermyns would turn into a clash within Asvaria so Asvarians kept silent, roads with walking people and food sellers into silence.
     Unfortunately, Madamus and his brother were kicked out of custody from their parents by their looks and behaviour. Their parents strive to be glorious and rich, leaving the two boys on the quiet streets. Asvaria was deserted so water was scarce and had to be delivered by the Ermyns until they claim Asvaria. Food was the only essence of survival they had to ration, though Asvaria still had quiet working shops and busy roads, The Ermyns would set an event where they gather half of Asvaria's earnings and claim it. By the year now 1341 B.C.E, The Ermyns have been known as the richest nation in all of nations.
      At this day, the brothers were furious. They vowed to flee Asvaria and live a better life in another nation, but they promise to keep dreams and love for Asvaria as they run away. And so they did and ventured into the desert, they brought with them some money they gathered on the streets by clumsy citizens, some rocks they would use as knives or weapons and some food all stored into a cloth they found on the streets.
      Day and night they continued their journey with plenty of resources left until finally they saw in the distance, not another nation but an ocean that stretched into the horizon, trees surrounding the ocean creating breezes of fresh air. they figured they'd find a way to survive there by creating shelter of trees and drinking fresh water but they still realized they have no way to continue life because there wouldn't be a female around when they grow up so they just had stick to the plan and survive. They ran as fast as they could to the ocean, scooped a handful of water and took a large sip of the water. They refreshened and relaxed for a few minutes before making shelter, the palm trees also had some small bushes growing out of them from the bottom which is useful for hiding or protecting yourself from a disaster. Madamus took some rocks out of the hand-made cloth bag and started chipping off large pieces of wood and threw them to Benedict, "We're making fire!" Madamus shouted as he continued chipping off wood.
      Once Madamus finished he ran back to the spot where Benedict sat, Madamus grabbed a thick piece of soft wood and a thin piece of hard sticks, then he started rotating the hard stick into the soft wood creating a friction to start a fire, with his fast pace and decent strength he was able to start a fire that could warm a person. Benedict then grabbed a few other small pieces of cloth he found, folded them and placed them a few inches away from the campfire, "Once the night comes, I'll take a piece of cloth and protect the fire from the cold, in the meantime we should find a way to create a fire protector out of something non-flammable" Benedict planned, "Why not gather rocks? That's non-flammable and it could protect a fire!" Madamus asked, "I have a better idea..." Benedict said, "Why not gather stones to protect the fires perimeter to stop it from burning other stuff, then we use the wood and the cloth to create a small cloth roof for the fire to be protected from rain and cold air!" Benedict added, Madamus smiled with an excited look on his face and ran back into the forest to gather stones. Benedict then started putting holes into the cloth and inserting large sticks. Using 4 sticks he created a roof, he waited for Madamus to arrive so he can complete the Fire Protector.
      When Madamus arrived, he place down a large stack of stones. Benedict counted and he discovered Madamus collected 17 stones. Benedict smiled and started placing stones around the perimeter. Then he placed stones around the bottom of the roof legs and held them, there he created a fire place with a cloth roof above it. The roof was a bit high enough for the brothers to live in. And so they stayed inside if they needed warmth. The night arrived and the blows of the dark flew throughout the air, but the fire was still unphased. They used extra cloths as blankets and pillows, "I've never slept like a normal citizen before!" Madamus said, "Me too" Benedict added. They all fell sleepy and greeted each other goodnight, And that day was the birth of a new nation.
