From the top of the Arena, Scanvegers watched the whole trumpeting parade of the different aristocracies, who participated to celebrate the noble day of the planet..

......°°°......

AYSELLVELIA 930 BC,

THRONE.

Myro traced his fingers down to his bleak and old beard which stretched long down from his jaw. He dusted off some from his golden and shiny armour which signifies royalty and nationalism.

From some couple of days, Myro, the great was apprehensive about some weird thoughts and events taking part on the planet.

The day before last night, Myro had a very bad nightmare, as he considers the dream as a ' nightmare '.

He found himself falling into a deep Abyss opening into an endless black pit with some limbs pulling himself towards them. He had a hopeless spirit indicating towards something very much appalling in future.

" Your Majesty! Hail thou thine on this wonderful occasion of this joyful planet" Greeted Selene, the domain wife as well as the lawful Queen of the planet Aysellvelia.

A small warm smile appeared between the shades of the beards, on the lips of Myro and he asked for her hands. The lady smiled and gently gives her hands in his.

He gently sets a soft peck on her white knuckles and takes the moment to gaze at her with glad eyes and narrations.

She understands the concerns spread over her husband's eyes. She gently cups his jawline and he simultaneously puts the gentle reference towards her.

She said, " I know about your concerns!"

He keeps his hands over hers and asks as per his concerns, " Is it that, Apparent ?"

She slightly smirks sharing some parts of his concerns together. She starts to run her fingers through the roots of his beards.

She continues, " Your Apprehensive behaviour makes it obvious moment by moment. Don't underestimate your authority as a king by doing this things, will you ?"

" Go away Selene, if you're here to blame me back" , He sadly looks down removing her hands off gently.

She keeps the grip firm and states,

" You're a blameless fellow! No one dares to blame you back, Not me either!"

Myro pauses his eyes to lock with hers. She passes a small smile towards him and continues, " As a Queen, I honours you as a king, Even I respects you the most as a husband therefore, I request you not to blame me or to blame your blameless self either but to respect other authorities as they do the same to you!"

Myro understands what her wife is trying to tell him. He is only tossing his mind over those meaningless stuffs. He is only concerning about his dreams and not concentrating on the things which are very more significant.

He nods and looks at his lady with inspiration. He said, " I understand it, Selene. Thank you for your opinion Lady!"

Selene lowers her lashes and bows slightly as showing a gentle respect to the worthy and benevolent king.

" My apology your Majesty! I truly regrets the fact to create the disturbance between, but do take the words from the common folk's references." The armed knight informed holding his breathes to show the gentleness to the king.

The fact undoubtedly grabbed the attention of Myro and Selene.

Myro stood up in a haze and questioned,

" What do you want to say ?!"

The knight gulped the nervousness and answered lowering his head, " Your s-son! Your Majesty!"

Myro tightened his fist in an annoyance and Selene looked at him with concerns running in her eyes for her son since she knows that he is not in a trouble but he is a kind of origin of them.

CLASTER'SOU,

AYSELLVELIA.

The ground rumbles due to the sensation of blasting of ammunition. Scanvegers run across here and there for Thier shelter.

A warrior with hooded eyes and carrying swords at his back wearing a black anorak amble Thier making the ground thumbs on his each step.

amidst of the black fume and terrible surrounding someone appeared at the middle. Tall and demonic is his appearance they mumbled among themselves.

He heroically draws the two swords out from his back cot and holds them in his both tightened fists.

" Who dares to fight me back ? anyone left here ?" He questioned making Thier spirits shiver and Thier eyes melting due to his boldness.

The fume passes off his face and his hooded eyes appeared swallowing half of the spirits into them. Demon is what they refer him as a name.

" Save us, Demon is here!" One counted on his nerves and walks away.

" Run for yourself! Demon ! Demon comes, Run!" One shouts among the crowded scavengers and runs to save Thier life.

A small smirk appears in his toned face. half identified handsome pale face. His hooded eyes signs someone to come down and from the other side of the sky an Albatross comes down and lands.

" I say you again. Look down your way and follow what is good for you!" He grunts and his feet abandons the ground and he flies with a great speed up to the heaven.

...°°°...

The anorak hooded person enters the throne and bows to the king's references but the king didn't responded.

He felt a bit weird and looked up to only see that the king glaring at him with an annoyed face also wearing a frown.

" Father, I'm home!" the hooded faced man said carrying a brief in his tone. The king sighed and questioned, " After what?"

The hooded man gave up his shoulders and unbuttons the sword cot and keeps them down at the foot of the throne. He takes his hood of and uncovers his eyes.

His tight jaw pale face shines in the coverage and his sharp eyes glares back at the reference of his Father Myro.

" You know, There's no use of doing this all!" Myro grunted and makes his soul impatient.

He tries to convince, " Father, please hold a lamp. I swear, It was not a mistake!"

Myro sighs and closes his eyes in frustration. He calms his spirit and questions again, " After doing what you're back home, here? is my question!"

Myro looks in his boy's regard for an answer and he gulps. He gritted his teeth and sighed. He bends on his one knee and and bows his head and closes his eyes in regret.

" Father. I apologise for what I did! The inconvenience due to it is deeply regretted!" He apologized and watched his Father with an eye.

Myro smirked knowing his faulty son's tricks. He said, " I didn't asked for your apology, You nasty Prince!"

He looked up and Myro stood up and steps down from his throne towards his son. Myro looks at his face and then towards his attire.

His hands is coloured with blood and some scratches near his jaw was noticed by him.

" Are you an assassin ?!" He questioned.

He tried to speak, " Father!-"

" I know that you're not. Then why you always seems to go in that way?" Myro stormed at him with an impatient spirit.

Afterall, He is his son and if he might do something reckless the nation will blame the manners taught by Myro to his son.

Myro sighed and walked on the floor caging his both fist back his waist. He explained,

" You're my son Aaron! it feels very mild to say that sometimes, I feel disheartened because of your doings. Try to be mature. You're the future king! People call you out demon cause you dress like one, An anorak instead of an armour? When do you decide to change? Hurry!"

Aaron looked at the way of his father and spoke his words, " I'm sorry Father, If because of me, You're being blamed. Today is an ancient day for this planet, for our territory, for our people, for the Scanvegers! Our ancestors, used to feast, used to celebrate it, we also do the same, right Father? I was way back to home after celebrating the feast with my beloveds, when I heard some other casts, puking your name, and I just can't control, I hit them hard so!-"

" You better shouldn't bother them from the next time. We are from different aristocracy. Don't say that I didn't warn you. That'll be taken care of. You better head to your residence!" Myro grunted upon him and he slightly nodded carrying his brief of unhappiness.

He took a tight hold unto his stuffs and before walking out he focused on Myro's face which he found a bit weird today.

He returned back after two days from his beloved's house and was hungry for her mother's warmth.

...°°°...

" Hail thou thine of the great virtue, Your highness!" Aaron greeted his mother and Selene smiled and hugged her son.

" Aaron, you returned. I was always looking for you!" She said still hugging him. They leaned apart and Aaron kissed her temple and she patted his son's head.

" Did Father scolded very much?" She asked seeing his face a bit dropped. He quickly mounted showing his bitter smile.

" When you'll become honest?" she commented and then they both laughed at the thing.

" Mother, I'm happy to see you!" He said and his mother grips his hand and walks towards her bed.

" You're hungry though? come. Have some, whatever you like!" She said and he nods.

They both sat and the lady claps her hands and a maid bows and come inside, " Yes Madam?"

" Please bring some roasted meat here! My son is back!" She ordered and the lady bowed and proceeded for her work.

Aaron smiled and sighed out. Selene noticed and asked, " What worries you?"

He mounted and looked at his Mother's eyes, " Mother, Is Father good?" he asked in a brief deepening the reason behind.

Selene moves one of his strings back to his ears and says, " Yeah, Why not. Do you doubt that? He's good. Didn't you met him while coming here!"

" I went there. I met him!" He stated. Selene noticed and asked, " So, You got nice scoldings?" and they giggled again but Aaron seems to hold the smile back due to something.

" Aaron, What's wrong? something is holding you back? Did you saw something?!" His mother asked in a very concerned tone and Aaron looked at her with deep ocean eyes.

" Mother, you know that I can predict things. I can see future ahead and even I can resolve them back!-" He was saying when Selene asked with an impatient spirit, " What did you saw?"

" Those are not nightmares what he dreamt of, Mother! His concerns for them is different. Those are not nightmares or dreams!" He stated and Selene looks at him with all being anxious.

" Not dreams either? Then what they are? what did you saw then?! Tell me!" She asked being an impatient soul.

Aaron's face has dropped down and his fingers are fighting with each other. He gained the courage and spoke not looking at her mother, " It is a prophecy "

His Mother stood up and looks at him with widened eyes. Aaron stood up and holds her mother's arm.

" What do you mean Aaron?" Selene asked in a hue. Aaron sighed and gave a saddened look.

" Don't worry. I'll not let it happen. I'll finish that prophecy, even though if it costs my life!" Aaron said her mother shed tears on his chest. The prophecy signifies the death of Myro...
