Three Young Kings

+ Prologue +

There were three young princes, their names were Bakari, Eryx, and Soterios. Bakari meaning Promise, Soterios meaning Savior, and the one different from the rest, Eryx, named after the son of Aphrodite and Poseidon. These were three princes of different kingdoms, one names the Ushasanem Kingdom, the second named the Zareoweth Kingdom, the last one named the Ouvicrothen Kingdom, all of the kingdoms had people with different behaviors and traits. Ouvicrothen had people of wisdom, even though the people may seem cocky most of the time, they're always the first to leap at a chance to protect someone. The Zareoweth Kingdom were people of honesty, they always told the truth no matter how bad the news was or if it would result in them being apprehended and thrown in a dungeon, even though no one dared to make the innocent king and prince mad or they would instantly feel guilt. The Ushasanem Kingdom was built off of hate, no one smiled and always shared a hateful stare at the people who walked past them, even the prince did the same, that's probably why there are always fights breaking out.

Bakari was the prince of Ouvicrothen, Eryx was the prince of Zareoweth, and Soterios was the prince of Ushasanem, all were soon to be crowned kings since the original kings were on their death bed, slowly digging their graves day by day. Of course, they were sad, they were their fathers after all, well, Soterios wasn't sad at all, he was happy as he saw this as a chance to become all-powerful and be able to do anything he wanted, so he couldn't wait. As days passed by the kings got sicker and sicker but on that dreadful day, September 28th, at 12:18, the king of Ouvicrothen died and left that kingdom heartbroken, but the prince instantly took the throne and tried to make everything better again, and he succeeded, everyone was soon forgetting about the old king and kept on thinking of the new king.

But a few days after on October 5th, at 3:41, the king of the Ushasanem Kingdom died, but because of their hateful ways, this leads them to not care, the people of Ushasanem just didn't want to care either, nobody mourned the death of the king, even the prince didn't care. The prince just lead the kingdom exactly the time when the king was reported dead, he lead the kingdom with a smirk always drawn across his face, he always felt like he was this all-powerful being. Lastly, the king of the Zareoweth Kingdom died a month after the Ushasanem's king, he died on November 17th, at 2:19. The kingdom cried and mourned, even the prince was heartbroken, even though he knew this would happen, he sat on the thrown, curled up crying, he never smiled again, even though the kingdom noticed this, they still smiled for his sake.

One day, they all decided to take a break from their kingdoms, they all went to a certain place in the woods, also known as the Jaded Forest since the leaves shone a beautiful green like jades. Of course, they left their kingdoms at different times but went to the same place, one left an hour after the other, the second left a few minutes after the first, the first one known as Eryx sat on a tree stump, just sitting there while looking down at the blue-ish green-ish grass with his hand in his lap, but then the other princes were going to that spot and stopped once they saw him, they both hid behind a tree, watching him as he just sat there, still staring at the grass.

Then the one on the stump finally got up and started walking away, but not before the other princes could jump out and stop him, they were all surprised by the presence of each other, they all looked at each other with confused expressions until one finally spoke up.
