Chapter 2 - The Peace Will Be Lost

Everyone in the world was looking at the sky and the broadcast that was being given by the news channels all around the world. " The prophecy of Red Sky, is it going to come true? Everyone in the world can see the red sky and also knows the myth behind it. It means we will soon see some kind of calamity in the world." The commentator said, " I would like to ask our guest General Lock about the prophecy of the red sky. It has come to our knowledge that the Calamity this time will be brought by the Augustine clan which was wiped out. We want to know everything, General, why Augustine Clan was wiped out, Who did it?"

" It is true that there was such a prophecy and it's related to the Augustine clan or we should say from their main bloodline. They were all killed in an attack by the leaders of the five biggest clans because of the threat they posed to the world. I can not reveal to you more than this. Our world has only recently started to progress toward the ideals of equality and must stand brave. This may just all be for nothing, The main bloodline of Augustine does not exist so there shall be no threat like a calamity." Mills finished his arguments.

" Sir, the public would like to know more about it. Was it the right thing to do? What was special about the main bloodline of the Augustine family?"

" Before the truth of the world was revealed to the world, Augustine Clan was one of the most renowned clans among them all. They were the reason why everything was hidden from the normal public, why, everyone had to face the threat of the outsiders." General Mills announced. " They were the strongest and their bloodline was much more special than any other clan we know in the present."

" If they were such a powerful Clan why didn't most of the people know about them."

" I can not reveal that, but their existence being hidden from the world was the best thing to do."

" Out of all the hidden parts of the world, no one should have ever found the Augustine Clan. They should have been left undisturbed because they are the monsters that were the most threatening existence."

* The world 2 hundred years ago.*

Earth was a peaceful planet before the truth of the world was revealed, Giant crystal stone tablets all around the world were found throughout the history of humankind, they were the keys to the truth.

The writing on the stones was deciphered but they didn't tell the entire truth apart from some stories of the past. Finally, humanity found something that guided them to the truth. A large black stone with ancient writing that has been never seen before. Years of efforts made it possible to decipher it and the truth was revealed to the world.

It revealed 9 locations from where the earth is connected to another dimension and also the keys to opening those dimensions. Six of these dimensions were ruled by six clans and the other three had unintelligent dangerous life forms.

Fortunately, the world has not completely unsealed those three dimensions. It was enough for them to form a barricade on the borders of those dimensions and pass through them when they wished.

The six clans that were found sharing the same history of being sealed away. However, these clans were not friendly at all, when they found out about the powerlessness of the people living on earth against their special abilities they started a war with the earth.

They slowly brought most of the world under their rule and divided the world among themselves and even removed the history of the world. The only truth that was allowed to remain is that a fantasy-like world suddenly opened and connected with the earth. They shared knowledge of science and their powers with the rest of the world to create the world we have come to know about today.

Together they face the threat that lies beyond the three dimensions where many dangerous things live. Earth had progressed a lot with rare resources and knowledge that was not available before, they created many new things in the world.

Somehow the battle between clans was stopped as they agreed to maintain peace between themselves. They had already divided the world themselves into five different empires ruled by five different clans.

" The youngest is alive, I think, you will be helpful to him." A woman in her 30s talked with a book in her hand.

The book was large, old and had a black cover with a pattern of the sun over it.

" You think he will be able to use me." The sound came from the book.

" Grimoire of Adham, You had helped me a lot with my survival. I knew that there was a meaning behind my life, I can finally serve my purpose in the revenge of Augustine."

" I am curious about this youngest of yours, what is he, that you make such a big deal out of him."

" The youngest has been the centre of everything, to save him, my husband and child had sacrificed themselves. His existence was kept hidden from everyone, only my husband, my son and the youngest's mother were the only ones to know about him." The woman answered. " He is the child of prophecy that people think will bring the calamity. He will get a power that is much stronger than any Augustine has ever wielded in their bloodline."

" Honestly, the Augustine Clan is odd, every member of your main bloodline had wielded different powers, unlike the other clans. I am interested in what kind of power this youngest of yours would have."

" Me too, we will meet him soon."

" You should know that I can only sustain your life for a few more days. How will you find him?"

" He had awakened, the red sky is the proof of that, I can track him."

" Tell me one thing, what do you expect from this child."

" My son sacrificed himself for his sake, I want that child to realise this. I want him to bring justice to my son and the entire Augustine clan and destroy the facade of peace that everyone knows."
