STARS OF DESTINY: League of Revelations

Prologues

"Sometimes, there will come a great black cloud covering the land from the East, destroying the kings of the land. So they were scattered and no force could contain them. But when the black cloud had arrived in the blessed land, a bright light that pierced through the sky would have obliterated the black cloud." (Luminance 1:1).

This morning, the sky was bright above Machion City, Kingdom of Tremora. All residents returned to their usual activities. Along the way, Machion City is crowded with people walking on foot.

"Quick find Princess Vallena!" there was an order from one of the captains to five of his subordinates at the end of the road close to the entrance of the palace. "Ready, captain!" they answered and hurried to leave the place.

A beautiful girl wearing a black hooded coat smiled from behind the walls of a house. He hurried to leave his hiding place.

The girl walked down every street of the city avoiding some of the soldiers who were looking for her, until she arrived at a gun shop. "I think this is the place" he muttered softly at the door of the shop, and he decided to enter the shop. There was a sound of iron being hit from the back room of the shop. "Is there anything we can help you with?" ask a woman who was blocking her steps as she attempts to see the back room of the store.

"Sorry, is this really Mr. Locosmic's blacksmith shop?" ask the girl who is blocking her steps. The woman nodded her head and asked, "Who are you and what is the need to find my father?"

The girl opened the hood of her coat, so that her beautiful and charming face appeared while smiling at the woman in front of her. So that makes the woman amazed and surprised after knowing the identity of the girl behind the black hooded coat. "You-you... Princess Vallena?!"

"Hush! lower your voice a little, I don't want everyone to know where I am here" Princess Vallena placed her index finger in front of her lips. "Come, please follow me to the guest room. I'll call my dad soon." As the two of them headed towards the living room, Princess Vallena was welcome to sit down while the woman headed for the back room to call her father.

"Oh... Princess Vallena apparently," said Mr. Locosmic while washing his hands that he had just washed with a towel. Princess Vallena stood up from her seat and greeted Mr. Locosmic. "Uncle Locosmic, excuse my arrival to interfere with uncle's work."

Uncle Locosmic pulled up the chair as he said, "No, no bother at all. What brought Princess Vallena out of the palace to see me?"

Princess Vallena sat back in her chair and expressed her wish, "I want to have a sword that will become a legend."

Mr. Locosmic was silent for a moment with a slightly surprised facial expression. He took a deep breath and said, "I will try, but I have requirements. How's it?"

Princess Vallena smiled and asked Mr. Locosmic's requirements, "Well, what are the requirements?"

"Give me Two Sapphire Stones and One Blue Crystal" replied Mr. Locosmic.

"Well, I'll meet those requirements."

Uncle Locosmic smiled and stood up from his seat as he said "Well, then good luck fighting, I'll prepare the other materials to make your sword."

"Then I say goodbye" said Princess Vallena while standing from her chair.

Princess Vallena was accompanied by the daughter of Mr. Locosmic towards the front door of the shop. "What's your name?" ask Princess Vallena. "My name is Seinna Locosmic" the woman replied. "Well Seinna, I say goodbye" Princess Vallena covered her head with a hooded coat and passed.

"What about the streets, Princess?" ask the man. Princess Vallena was surprised to recognize the voice of the man. With his head bowed while blocking the face from behind the hood of his coat, he wanted to immediately turn back his body. But the man swiftly opened the hood of Princess Vallena's coat and grabbed her ear. "ah! Forgive brother! It hurts!"

"You've made a noise in the palace, now you have to go home, because I'm so worried about you" said the man, who turned out to be Princess Vallena's older brother.

"Mr Melvin, you've finally found Princess Vallena" said the captain, who had been searching for Princess Vallena while running towards them. "Captain Dunan Windshire, you are so useless" said Prince Melvin, whose right hand still holds Princess Vallena.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Melvin." said Captain Dunan, kneeling at his feet before Prince Melvin. Suddenly the sound of trumpets rang out from the direction of the guard tower at the entrance gate of Machion City, not far from where Prince Melvin and Princess Vallena stood. A procession of chariots and soldiers from other kingdoms seemed to approach the city gate followed by some of the royal civilians who looked wounded and battered.

"Let's see what happens at the gate there", Prince Melvin asked after removing his hand from Princess Vallena's ear. The three of them rushed towards the city gate. There appeared a woman wearing a red wide hat with two pistols on either side of her hips approaching the two gate guard soldiers who drove them away.

"Include! my name is Edea Velvetta, the leader of the first division of the Aetherian Kingdom, wanting to ask for the temporary protection of your kingdom because our kingdom has been destroyed by the Devourian Empire" she said.

"If you want to ask for our protection, you must bring a diplomatic letter signed by your king" one of the guards replied.

"But our king has been killed in battle, only we are left alive. We no longer know where to go, because the Kingdom of Odissieia and Synchronesia have also been destroyed by them. Only your kingdom is left and I'll make sure they come here soon" she said.

The two guards laughed and said, "You're joking, right? Our kingdom is not as weak as your kingdom, after all you have failed to protect your own kingdom and king, still threatening us with your imaginary story."

"What did you say? We weak?" reply the woman with both hands ready on both handles of her gun.

"Stop Edea!" shouted a girl who came down from one of the horse carriages at the very front.

"Daughter Julia, forgive me," Edea said as she lowered her head.

"I am Princess Julia Aether, the first Princess of King Aetherian II. We'd like to meet your king" the girl introduced herself.

"Then come with me, I'll take you to meet my father" Prince Melvin's voice was heard clearly from behind the two gatekeepers.

"Prince Melvin," the two guards lowered their heads and paved the way for Prince Melvin. "Is that how you greet other royal guests who come to ask our kingdom for help? Tomorrow you come to the military office to account for your actions" asked Prince Melvin firmly. "Pardon us, Your Majesty."

"Come, come in and welcome to the Kingdom of Tremora," Prince Melvin asked Princess Julia.
