Aries had a good memory. She remembered all the lands these ladies came from. Back when she was Abel's pet, she was forced to follow him everywhere he goes and listen to every discussion he would have. Those lands: Topia, Chivisea, and Nurius were mentioned in the past.
Those lands were small kingdoms just like Rikhill. Topia and Chivisea had always taunted each other and the tension in recent years kept increasing. The only reason those two kingdoms hadn't waged a war with each other was because of the Haimirich Empire.
It might sound like the Haimirich Empire was acting as the mediator between two kingdoms. The story differed greatly from what it looked like.
Abel had always eyed those kingdoms because of their natural resources. Knowing the Haimirich Empire and the tyrant emperor, both kings had to rule out the idea of a war, afraid Abel would take advantage of the tension. Abel had no morals, after all.
