in the country named "shouara", the king renowned as a great monarch and was known to be an righteous and equal to all, shouara was a country located in the middle of the four countries that didn't have sea it wasn't the strongest country ,its was under the rules of "otark" the empire that ruled world but their absolute ruling also didn't last long when king" shora" ascended the throne of shouara when he expanded the borders and ruled country at its strongest time.
people called the new king the "first fire shora" and the time he ruled the told to be "golden rail" he made the empire's proud and was known as "dark knight among his army, the most useless Peron in the royal family was their princess "zad" and their five years old brother which was still a kid but showing talents.
at one of the shouara's restaurants:
"hey, don't badmouth the princess you know how the king and late king adores her, even though she dawdling she has her beauty maybe at least her looks will save her, AHAHAHAH"
the talk about zad princess roamed and caused an uproar in the the restaurant, while in the corner of the restaurant a shabby looking person sat quietly observing the situation that slightly could be heard his murmuring: "these insolents..."
as he stand and left his table leaving tis tips beating the noisiest man in the middle up on his table drunkard and swaing badmouthing princess (zad). a sudden big crashing and cracking sound made the whole rest area went silent as they stare at the drunkard man flew a few tables and crashing shown of the cutleries.
the man said:" ungrateful dog" and spat on the man as he left.
the man had a big figure he was a handsome man with a thin bread but suited him and made him stand out, he had a strong build and strong muscles he was looking freighting as one of his eyes were cut through, he had a black hair and he was holding a dragger at one side of his clothes, he was wearing a commoner's clothes but he looked like a mercenary..
as the man went on his was he met with high walls in fronts of him but no one stopped him neither asked him for one of the gatekeepers asked his senior .
the man : senior, who is he from a high post or something?
the senior: sigh* how your fellow gatekeeper knows that brat we were just informed to let this man in, if not be ready to... " as he signed with his hand for head slice.
the man went inside the gate and as he went the man approached him running toward him " GENERAL!, where have you been you know today was court appointment, if it wasn't for his majesty you've probably been beheaded now."
the general laughed it off at his attendant kept nagging at him, before his attendance with his majesty at the training yard he wear his formal general clothes as he asked for entrance and was allowed, he viewed his majesty panting and having a heavy breathes as he swayed his sword at his opponent he was flushed and tired but maintaining his cool as he was ready for his next attract his opponent sword flew as he thought that he won underneath on his abdomen awaits his opponents dragger and checking his opponent on his lower left side.
" phew, hahaha, sure thing I cant win against you, now you've even reach the point to beat your teacher" the king said as he sat on the ground.
"I BELIFE... I was her sword master, i hope you don't underestimate my discipline next time your majesty." general said as he step forward.
" shar! you don't try steal talents i taught her before leaving for battel, you just enhanced my basic teaching"
" panting* panting* , general shar! welcome back!" said zad with her soft voice as she turned back her silky brown hair was falling on her small shoulders and her blue eyes shining with a soft look at her fiancé.
smiled the general bowed in respect " my beloved, I missed you so much, in that hellish desert fight you were my only oasis". as he kissed her hand, that made princess blush.
"hey, she is still a princess, don't even think about it." said the king with a glare, made zad glare back at him as she said " its all brother's fault that were still not married every person in the country knows it." the general grasp princess's hand which hold the sword in order to protect the king though he didn't mind whatever she would've done.
"he is more like your subordinate than my general" said king with a low voice, continuing clearly " he is your fiancé until I see he is worth of you, your staying in the palace." he finished as he walked away.
his speech made zad sad and lowered her head and trembled her soft pinky lips in anger.
as general stepped forward putting his hand on her shoulder and hugging her from back comforting her "he just cant stand being left alone, he treasure you a lot, please don't be mad at him"
general was an awkward man that didn't know how comfort her, as the reason was a member of her family, which made it harder on a person that didn't have a family.
zad wasn't sad she just couldn't understand her brother, and why he wont allow her marriage she get that he loves her small sister but that made her feel prisoned.
at night the general was summoned by the king on a private talk as zad hear this she sneaked out of her room after he maids left her room, she played this game a lot when she was a child with her brother that made their weak mom always worried about them, as she was thinking about her memories with her passed away mother that she reached the top of her room fire chimney her room was tightly secured but she was known to be the trouble maker. she smirked as she made her was to her brother's palace.
in king's palace:
how many times should i tell you? wasn't i clear? your repeating same thing if your going to keeping doing this i want hold back for holding you a poisoner" said the king with a loud voice.
"I can endure any insult about me and my underling that I treasure them like my brothers, but not toward my wife, not the princess your majesty" said general firmly.
the king glared at him with anger and with a louder voice said: NO MATTER WHO INSULTED, I TOLD YOU NOT TO KILL" he continued beating on his desk " how many times is this? you think zad would be happy, about this?, do you even know why i do not allow you to marry her?, YOUR A MURDER, not only on battlefield you kill common folks, how I'm supposed to feel save about her in hands of someone like you!!"
the general kept silence, he knew that he was immature and should've endured but many times and this got repeated, the love story of zad and shar reached the ear of the enemies, the capable general the fell over heels for his useless princess.
as zad reached his brothers chamber and overheard his brother: you made my sister your weak point and the enemies target, she will not marry you, even if i had to send her for political marriage i wont hand her to you,... now OUT!
zad flinched as he heard his brothers scream it wasn't her first time hearing his brother angry voice but its was never like before, she saw shar getting out and was clinching his hand tight and was furious, as zad saw this sight she went back and couldn't sleep for the whole night as she was crying thinking how cruel her brother was.
how could he say he would use me he was, how could he say that! was occupying zad's mind.
zad and shora grew up like twin when shora was only 14and zad only 9 when they lost their mother, shora which had to take over the crown was always busy and leaving for battlefield made situations worse but he never neglected his sole sister he loved her dearly, but he never show it in public to protect her and but when they where together and whenever he got back he showered her with treasures and love, zad knew of this and she always prayed for him, when he was away she protected her small brother and his country leading it to safety while hiding in shadow, she hided her talent, her skills, and the only person to know of this is her brother she was brought up this was that she was acting even in front of his beloved.
