"Kin.."kin's mother, hana zuko yelled kin's name"dinner's ready"
"Okay ma, i'm coming"kin replied and rushed to the dinning room,
"So kin, how was your day? "kin's dad Arumin zuko asked,
"It was okay, nothing new happened"kin replied, "no talking on the dinning ta..."hana was cut short by the sound of marching coming from their village, they all rushed out to find some group of men, with all sort of enchanted weapons outside.
"What do you want from us? "Arumin asked and one of the men came out to meet Arumin, he had black hair and was wearing a robe with then drawing of the moon,
"give us all your harvest of this year and we go without causing any harm",
"Maze"Arumin dad called his trusted friend, "gather all the harvest of this year and give it to them",
Maze did as Arumin had instructed and brought out all their harvest, "is this all? " the man with black hair who seemed like their leader asked, "yes this is all" Arumin replied, "give us all the jewelry you have, starting from that one" the man with black hair said pointing at the bangle on hana's wrist, "no, you can't have it, it was given to me by my mother" hana replied and before everyone's eyes, a kunai was already on her chest,
"Mom..... " kin shouted while Arumin rushed to attack their leader but was badly beaten, nearly to death.
The group of men left with the food, kin was still on the floor crying on his mother's corpse while the villagers carried Arumin to his house and started attending to his wounds.
Two days later...
Arumin has started showing progress in his recovery, while kin has been in his room after the day of the incident, refusing to come out or even eat anything, he was locked up in his room, he thought about everything that had happened on the day and after much thought he finally decided that he was going to become the Daitōryō \(The ruler of a country\) and avenge his mom by bringing the bandits who attacked their village to justice.
Three days later....
Kin had finally come out of his room and he found maze his father's friend, "where's dad? " kin asked maze,
"He is in the healers house, receiving his treatment " maze replied with a faint tone of pity in his voice,
"Thank you" kin said while rushing to the healers house in order to tell his father about his plan.....
Kin entered into the healers house and was hugged by someone who he realized to be his dad
"Kin, you finally came out" Arumin said in a happy tone,
"Dad I have something to discuss with you" kin said in a serious tone,
"What is it son" Arumin replied...
Kin told Arumin about his plan to leave ichi village and head to the city of ryo, in order to start training to become a Daitōryō fortress \( someone who works as a soldier for the Daitōryō\)
"No son, you can't go, besides you are only fourteen " Arumin replied
"I'm sorry dad but I've already decided it, you can't say anything to change my mind" kin said and quickly left the healers house.
It was already night and kin had already started packing his bag, he stopped when he heard a knock on his room door,
"It's open" kin said, and Arumin entered into the room,
"Dad you can't stop me " kin said
"I'm not hear to stop you son, i'm here to give you this" Arumin said and gave kin an interspatial ring (a ring that can contain anything due to it's spacious nature although it does run out of space when too many things are kept inside)
"Thanks dad " kin said and hugged his father.
The next day, kin had already packed his things and was ready to leave ichi village,
"Don't get into trouble, " Arumin said
" I won't " kin replied
" and remember to visit when you have the chance " Arumin said
"I will, bye dad" kin said and left.
