Synopsis

Chapter 1 - The Sixth Prince

A lonely moon peeks over the hills as it looks down at a sad looking fortress in a valley, almost as if to watch over it. Inside the fortress a old maid is rushing toward an armed guard, stopping just in time before hitting him; she looks at him in the eyes. "The Child is a boy" Hearing her words the old guard with a scar on his chin turns around and opens a door behind him, entering a chamber lit by candle alone with no windows.

Inside the chamber the guard looks toward his king and kneels. "The child is a boy your majesty." Looking up from his book he merely nods, and waves his hand as if to imply to leave. Seeing his gesture the guard stands up and leaves the chamber quickly. After a couple hours once he finished his book the king stood up with a grunt, then the king walked toward his door in a tired manner. Slowly opening the door to see the same guard now on duty, as he stepped out of his chamber.

Seeing the king exit his chamber and beginning to walk down the hallway the guard silently walked behind him, slowly as if dragging his body the king made his way toward the end of the hallway. Looking toward his right the king saw two armed guards by a small door, the king with a wave of his hand had them open the door. Entering using the small door that is made from solid iron the king saw his child in a maid's hands, obvious displeasure is seen in his face.

"Took you awhile Walter, I almost thought you wouldn't show up" Said the Queen in a haughty manner, with tired eyes Walter only grunted then walked toward the maid holding his child. "Not even holding the kid, I guess you gave up pretending you had a heart Agath." Seeing Walter not even looking at her and only focusing on his kid, Agath felt the desire to throw something at the man. But the guard standing by his side quickly gave her a glare, which promptly stopped her. "What is his name Agath" Agath turned her head to look toward the ceiling instead of Walter. "I didn't give him a name"

Looking at his son's brown eyes Walter nodded, and began to walk out of the chamber with the child in his arms. Turning her head from the ceiling she showed a non caring expression toward Walters back."What are you doing Walter?" "I'm taking my son Asmo to his new mother." "Do as you want with it, I don't want it" "I know"
