In a palace far from Valyenor, a man took a sip of his wine. Seated comfortably in his luxurious chair, he awaited the good news from his subordinates.
He had been lying low for months after his initial plans were disturbed by someone powerful.
As a magician since childhood, he had heard a lot of stories about The Great Solis Nigellus Empire's legendary magicians. But he thought they had dwindled by now due to the dangers that befell them over the years. They were always targets of assassination from other countries after all.
Who would have thought he would suddenly encounter a magician from the said empire when he had been moving about freely for years. It was someone strong that he failed in his plan to eliminate the Valyenor children because of that person's meddling.
It was totally unexpected. He thought that he was the most powerful magician in the world by now due to his advantage.
