The Blue Swordsman

Black Sword

The appearance and disappearance of pitch black clouds that turn a bright day dark for a while is possible for most of the country's population is just normal, to them it was just a cloud that did not turn into rain. Evident from the conversation of some farmers who were looking up at the sky seemed astonished to see the clouds that returned bright, one of them said to the other.

"I thought there was going to be a big storm..??"

"It seems like our guess is wrong, let's continue our work there is still a little more time before dusk "Another answer.

Some of the farmers also came out of the hut, they had previously shaded because they had thought it would rain a storm. For those who are accustomed to reading natural changes, if the black clouds that have just appeared will usually be accompanied by rainstorms that will come down to earth. when the clouds suddenly disappeared as quickly as they came, they were astonished. But a moment's astonishment did not make them think to find out the real cause of the black cloud's appearance, for them the most important thing is that when the sky is clear again then their work in the fields and fields must be continued.

But for people who have the power and can sharpen the sensitivity of his inner eye, it is clearly visible from their eyes if the cloud is not an ordinary cloud. The dense cloud is a sign of the appearance of a god to the earth, and it is impossible if it is a sign that there are enough people who have great magic that can change the order of this world.

The sign can also be seen by some people who were sitting in the hall of a large house in Sentani village. These people were Prabu Widyatmaka, Patih Lasmana and of course the Duke of Pradana, they immediately looked at the pitch black clouds that appeared in the sky. They looked as if they were sharpening their gazes to the center of the cloud that formed the vortex, when finally the cloud disappeared and changed the sky back bright to three of them exchanged views as if trusting and understanding each other about what they felt.

The conversation in silence was as if saying to each other "he has appeared ". He in question is someone who is in the Ancient Prophecy, the prophecy that is said to be written in the stone wall of a cave reads,

" ..There will come a figure that is able to bring change in your world, when the figure appears then the sky can be torn down.."

The appearance of a black cloud vortex at that time was indeed as if it would make the sky collapse. Prabu Widyatmaka who understood the truth with his premonition then said to his followers,

"Now we may have to take up arms and have to fight, prepare yourselves well ".

His followers who understood the meaning of the King replied with a nod and said almost simultaneously.

"Everyday..!!"

They understood the intent of the king, the war the king said was a war against all evil, a war against all the angkara that existed throughout the land. A war that supported the people in the ancient prophecy.

***********************

Meanwhile, on the other side of the country in a Shaminari royal palace located in the city of Kanigara, King Prabaswara was able to capture the omen, so called some royal courtiers, and then called some royal courtiers, one of them is Patih Pramana.

Although King Prabaswara knew that the people who were currently summoned to him also knew about the omen, the King still tried to ask them..

"Even your majesty, if I'm not mistaken it may have something to do with the black clouds swirling in the sky this afternoon.." The word Patih Pramana represents other people who seem to be saying the same thing.

"Yes, I'm sure you also understand that it is an omen, a sign that the person written in the ancient prophecy seems to have appeared"

"That's so noble"

"Do you guys know?? If besides that ancient prophecy there's one more story that accompanies her?"

"Whatever your honor, we don't know or at least have never heard of it"

While rising from the throne, the king walked towards his followers, he then told a story that was only told down through the generations by his ancestors.

"This story is a story from my ancestors, only told in the royal family.It is said that there is another sword that can be to match the power of the Lightning Sword, the sword that until now no one has dared to look for it as tragedy and darkness that the sword will bring. The Sky-Splitting Sword was what my ancestors called it, it was said to be in a deep ravine between the Rhimalaya mountains", the King's steps halted in front of Prabu Pramana. Then he continued his words, "O my Patih, I command you to seek the sword, will you be able?".

Clenching his hands together worshipping Patih Pramana answered confidently, "Even the noble one, I am capable. I will seek the sword even if I have to sacrifice my life"

Satisfied with the reply Patih the King seemed to smile.

The order has been decided, so the King disbanded his retainers leaving Prabu Pramana who seems to be still given some instructions by his King. Moments later it seemed that the conversation was over, Patih Pramana also resigned and resigned to immediately leave immediately, carrying out his King's orders.

Patih Pramana seems to be carrying supplies in the saddle of the horse saddle, supplies that the royal servant has prepared for him. Immediately he ran the horse through the palace gate and quickly left the city towards the forest that leads North towards the Rhimalaya mountains.

The sword that King Prabaswara was telling was the Sky Splitting Sword or by the people who knew about the story was known as the Black Sword. The sword which is said to have a dark history attached to it, the story of which evolved the sword has been hidden by gods deep in the depths of the earth. Wishing the sword could not be found as the destruction would be brought along by the curse of the Black Sword.

The one who can find the sword will have great power, demonic power that makes its owner will be blinded by greed and thirst for power.

Patih Pramana who is currently trying to find the sword knows absolutely nothing about the accompanying history, which he knows his King ordered him to find the sword. Of course, as Patih who had become a confidant and the right hand of the King, there was nothing else he could do but obey the order of the King that he respected greatly.

The horse driven by Patih Pramana is getting further and further into the depths of the forest at a rate that is getting closer to its destination. The pace of ever closer destruction on the face of the earth.
