Chapter 2 - Chapter 1: Beginning of a Tradegy.

In the world of Zeta, a child was born in the south-eastern side of the world to the Duke of Yonaria.

Heath De Ackord was born in the year 1265 he was currently a three-year-old now and just the previous year the Duke his father had another child.

Heath when born was blind, and He had the lowest rank in the Sen as he is Hair was

purple, and his eyes were white or ash in color.

The Duke had already made plans on having four Sons and Two Daughters which would help him politically as well as help him establish more control and give him some leverage.

The Duke or his Father's name was Yeatvine De Ackord he had gained the Position of Duke by contributing in the Three island Great war both Strategically and Politically.

The Duke was a Manipulative and cruel man, but he was someone aware of his surrounding's (as in politically interested).

The Duke was disappointed when he found out that The first Born was blind and gave him the name Heath which means wasteland.

As in, he was a wasted opportunity, His father saw that he couldn't become the Head instead wanted to make him his Household's sword.

And could send him to the war as the contribution to the country and if he dies nothing is wasted and if he wins profit to the Duke.

His mother Diana De Ackord was a Cunning person as well she south the love of the Duke as she gave birth to Six children in just seven years and when giving birth to the last child she died.

His mother had started to beat him every day and feed him a Narcotic that would slowly rewrite his brain into a doll for her husband, they were giving him poison as well and training him to become their loyal dog,

He had given him a small shack, beside the main building of the Duke, his mother had never cared about him but whenever she talked about him a feeling of disgust, which would be heard by Him.

Heath, who was just a three-year-old, didn't understand, but soon he completely stopped resisting on their commands instead doing whatever they asked him to do, They started to train him into a Perfect Sword for the household as his mother would beat him at night just for being born and his father who had found a researcher in the morning would torture his body give him poison and heal him again using Sen.

This continued until his 10th birthday the day A person gets the blessings from the primordial, Now Heath was completely a loyal dog to his father he would do anything for the narcotic that would soothe his pain.

"Now my dear 'Son' Don't do anything that is unbefitting of our family, if you do, you won't be getting this for a month and the special training will be given" His father said while giving a glare that would be similar to talking to a slave.

"Yes father" He bowed with a face showing no signs of expression besides a fake smile that is deceiving if you weren't smart enough.

The Duke had gone great lengths to make him a perfect little loyal Slave, which would serve him and his children, even though he was his son, The Duke had thoroughly brainwashed him not to go against his orders and before departing from this world his mother had made him think it was all his fault for being born this way.

Then they both went ahead and got to Shrine of the primordial, as his father went and talked to the priest. Then the priest took Heath into a place Deep under the shrine where there were seven statues as he started reciting some words, Slowly a little White cloud came from the Earth God's statue had gone inside him, Thereafter, he had been unconscious for one hour.

He had been already brought into the Duke estate and been sent into his shack where he remembered the blessing he and gotten was from only one god, while most Noble's would get it from two or three of the God's.

Heath never knew what was right or wrong, but he thought about what he had done wrong always.

-----Three years Before---

before dying his mother had said "If you have to die, you have to die for your father or your siblings because you're the reason I am like this even your father and your siblings" She said what sounded to be Pity and love was just making him their Scapegoat when such a time had come, She had taken him into her embrace for the second time as she breathed her last breath.

"Yes mother"Heath said being happy he was finally in his mother's embrace it felt good. But not a single Tear had come from his eye he felt nothing except fulfilling his mother's wishes because he was the reason he was like this.

--Flashback end----

The Duke was planning a course of action for his second son Aiden De Ackord his most favored son has having inherited most of his trait's, The third son was Blake De Ackord He has excellent Sen control with his leadership qualities, The fourth son Carlos De Ackord he is more inst rested in the money and political side of things with him having Decent control over his Sen and Ren. And then there is his Three daughters Elle De Ackord, Jessie De Ackord and Sarah De Ackord, all three of them are cunning and manipulative like their mother.

Heath had never been cared about by his siblings, but he knew they had to be protected by his life as his mother had said.

A year had passed from his blessing his father had brought another person from the illegal researcher group to teach him about Sen and Ren, the two researchers names were never disclosed By his father.

But one day during the month of K6 His father had knocked both of them out and had come to the Underground place.

"Here, take this" he said with Cruel smile.

The Duke kicks a sword towards Heath.

Then he asked his butler to drag the Researcher's to Heath.

As Heath was on the ground kneeling he took the sword and stood up.

"Kill them" The duke said in an amusing smile.

"Yes" Heath said as he pointed the sword towards one of the researchers, slowly he started to slit their throats with the Sword there were screams of agony, but Heath didn't stop and killed them both, though there wasn't any reaction with him.

The Duke simply went away as he had completed what he had come for.

"Good job, My loyal dog" The Duke said in degrading manner.

"There will be a reward for you today" He said while showing a small beaker containing a Purple substance the narcotic.

The moment Heath saw it, he wanted it so badly it would allow him to sleep without pain, he could sleep in peace.

"Here" the Duke said while throwing the beaker at Heath with Calculating smile.

Heath held it like his Life was in the beaker as he went away to his wooden shack where even the Maids wouldn't come.

"Finally, I can drink this and sleep today" He said in Psychotic manner as he said it in obsessive tone.

*Gulp*

He drank it in one go and started to feel drowsy and slept away.
