Lilies Of Death
Prologue
Lily
Lilies symbolize purity and peace—yet I, Lily Helios Nyxaris, born of noble blood, embody none of the grace my name suggests.
Lily
In the ruthless world I call home, it is kill or be killed. Survival belongs only to those who can endure the trials of the House of Nyxaris. After transcending time itself, I have but one purpose...
Lily
To bring this family to its knees and reduce it to ruins.
Lily
I lived a life full of thorns, I surpassed my brothers and sisters and got father's approval to be the next matriarch of this family.
Lily
I didn't expect my own flesh and blood… Whom I worked so hard for, to earn their approval...
Lily
To kill me with their own sword.
Lily looks at the mirror in front of her, talking to herself as if... The sword and their cold eyes still lingering
Tears stream down the girl's face, the glim light of the moon illuminates her beauty of innocence and yet
Only resentment remain in those eyes
Episode 1– Fragments
The Nyxaris of the Helios empire is one of the most prominent nobles– second of power to its emperor's
As their powers of destruction helped serve the kingdom when wars broke out in the country
The royal dynasties maintained its mutual stance with the Nyx
However, as their powers and influence grew
It threatened the royal family
The sound of tapping can be heard through the hall– each sound made everyone present... Tremble
summoned the patriarch of the Nyx family
Deon
Greetings to the sun and moon of the empire– Your majesty.
Deon– kneeled and snickered under his breath... a hint of sarcasm in his tone
Deon
You've summoned me, and now I am here.
Emperor Tao
Yes, lift your head.
The emperor lifted his hand as he spoke
Deon
Of course... why did you summon the nyx, sire?
In their formal display of etiquette hides the hidden lies
The emperor looked at Deon and ordered his house to the border
Emperor Tao
It's been.. a while Ever since the nyx helped in the war
Emperor Tao
The Theron kingdom– is at its near end
Emperor Tao
its economy is starting to collapse
The emperor looked down at Deon his eyes devoid of emotion
A slight glint flash in his eye
Deon
This nyx– will handle it.
Deon looked straight in the eyes of the emperor
Walking towards the throne
Deon
We will crush it whole... HAHA–HA
Deon
Hah– We will see each other again then, Your majesty.
Deon as if amused unable to contain his laughter– laugh as if he heard the funniest statement in his entire life
"What does this frick want? Merely a puppet, oh what? Afraid?" Deon looked at him with mockery
This little emperor just rose to the throne by killing his brothers and father
because of this.. The Empire Hilious is in chaos
This Emperor is the youngest of his siblings, had no chance for the fight of the throne
And yet used a blunt and boring way to ascend
Deon merely sees this play as mockery
just as he ascended the throne he contacted us, the Nyx, to be sent to the Theron kingdom... this shows that he is afraid
'Afraid of us' Deon smiles at the thought
Lily murmured barely a whisper
Lily held her head and massages her temple
A ringing sound can be heard from her ears
A cold, filthy, and heartless cell
The guards barely give her a glance throwing a piece of moldy bread at her
Guard
You deserve this, after what you've put this country through
Tears ran through his face as he spat at the ground
Lily
Hah– from a high-end lady to this... Mess
Lily
After being of no use I am now here
"Why didn't you do the job??!"
"My child, I am sorry for bringing you into this world"
"Tsk, I thought despite having no destruction magic of the Nyx can you still be useful... Should have killed you then. "
"Dearest, Be our last piece of the puzzle and die for your family. In this way can you be useful."
The voices ranging into her head until she was pushed out of the cell and into the guillotine
The people, the audience staring
Lily
Gasp! Hah, ha, what? What happened..
she clutches her neck as if confirming
And yet what she saw in the mirror made her tremble at the sight
A two lined scar to her neck
Lily
I returned back in time
Lily
only fragments are here
Lily
Why am I back here...
Lily looked at her hands still trembling and now having a clearer mind did she realizes
This is the time her siblings will fight
Will earn father's respect
I was weak physically and it didn't help when I am the youngest of the bunch
this is the time my eldest brother will stab me
I wasn't able to dodge the sword back then
Making me the laughingstock
One cannot afford to make mistakes
I don't know how many times I did
and it only activates when I die
Lily
Hmph, I can't believe it still
Lily
this is the only time I've seen it
Lily
I can now control it freely
With this thought in mind
Lily
I might have gone insane
In every timeline she can't control time
Lily
there is a difference
