A baby's cry echoes throughout the whole room while people gather around the newly born baby.
"Look at him," a woman says while looking at the baby as tears slowly fall down.
"This is just outstanding, your majesty! He shall be the future's symbol of hope and heroism," a man had said.
"I have made my decision," a man with a deep voice spoke.
Everyone looked at the man. He wears a crown and a metallic armor with symbols engraved on the breastplate. The man is a warrior, and he is the present king of the kingdom.
His name is Arthur Skywalker.
The kingdom of Belingfort is a kingdom that has been known to many for its great defense and governance. Due to this reputation, many kingdoms had aspired to destroy it but none of them had ever succeeded once.
Arthur Skywalker is a famous warrior known throughout the land of the east. His skills in combat and wise tactics make him and his kingdom invulnerable and strong.
"His voice shall be heard by hundreds of people. His proclamation shall be heard across nations. His victories will be an inspiration to all warriors. His name shall be Gideon, and shall be known as the Skywalker,"
After King Arthur's statement, everyone was amazed by his diction. It was imperative, the speech that is. It became an inspiration for everyone.
The woman smiled again as she looked at the king and said, "What a name filled with honor, my love."
Arthur looked at the woman with pride and replied, "Yes, Felicia, my queen. Gideon is a name for warriors and risk-takers. His name will be a reminder for him to always give his best and be valiant."
The woman was his wife, Felicia Letika. She is the current queen of the kingdom of Belingfort, and has achieved numerous victories along with his husband, Arthur Skywalker.
"Old tales do repeat itself," the same man had said.
The rest of the people looked at the man who just spoke.
"What does your statement mean, Alfred?" the king asked of Alfred.
Alfred is the family's caretaker. He has been serving under the Skywalker family ever since the teenage years of Arthur Skywalker.
"The same thing had happened once with you, my king. You were a ray of hope, radiating brightly each and every day, inspiring the kingdom to always look for the light," Alfred explained.
"Perhaps you are right, Alfred. I do hope that your proclamations deem true," Arthur Skywalker replied.
The day the prince was born was the day hope once again filled the kingdom of Belingfort.
But all good things come before a great disaster, or perhaps, the worse one.
News spread throughout the whole world regarding the bearing of a newborn in the Skywalker family.
The day that the new Skywalker was born is no ordinary day.
As night draws nigh, everyone in the kingdom of Belingfort started gathering in the kingdom's colosseum.
Tonight is the night that the blood moon rises. This is a very rare occurrence. As such, the people in the kingdom of Belingfort considers such occurrence as a gift from the god of sky, Zeus.
There were loud noises and cheers that scatters around the colosseum as people continued coming inside. This gathering is called the Blood Moon Festival - a festival dedicated to offer thanksgiving and appreciation to the sky god.
The last to enter the colosseum was the Skywalker family along with the family caretaker, Alfred. The Skywalkers walked towards the center of colosseum as torches started lighting up and giving vision to them. When they reached the center, the king, Arthur Skywalker stood on the block of cement while Felicia Letika - who also carries Gideon - sat on the chair dedicated to the royal family.
Arthur Skywalker's gaze wanders around the whole colosseum before raising his right arm with his fist clenched, a symbol of freedom and strength that Arthur dedicates to the kingdom's continuous success and prosperous living.
"As the night comes deep, my fellow citizens, with my fists clenched upon the sky, heed my words! Peace shall forever reign in this kingdom, and evil shall not exist. With Gideon, my son, all will remain well!" Arthur Skywalker shouted in front of everyone.
"Before this night end, let us make the most out of it, shall we?" the king said.
"Let's get this festival started!" Arthur said, his shout echoing through the whole colosseum while people joined in his shout, cheering in the celebration of the Blood Moon Festival.
There were definitely music and thrill in the festival. Everyone is doing well and seems to be getting along with each other.
There were no flaws inside the kingdom, and everyone is definitely happy.
Until fiery objects were seen traversing the sky by the citizens.
Arthur felt these fiery objects and immediately looked at everyone.
"We are under attack!" one citizen screams.
The shouting of the citizens alerted everyone in the colosseum. They all started looking at the sky where the attack was seen, and that was when they all slowly confirmed that they were under attack.
This made Arthur alarmed and started wielding his sword.
"All guards round up to the gates! Divise yourselves evenly and make sure that nobody enters the kingdom!" Arthur Skywalker commanded.
"Everyone, please do not panic! Carefully follow the guide of the knights for your safety." Felicia said, aiding the citizens in their escape.
The queen, Felicia, was shattered by the bad news. She did not expect that they would be attacked exactly on the night that the Blood Moon rises.
If there is one thing that people had never done, it is to cause chaos and wreak havoc at the night of the Blood Moon. This is because no matter how much kingdoms crave for power, their respect towards the gods go above all.
"Oh god of sky, what happened? How foolish it is for people to do such unforgivable sin just for power," Felicia said while continuously aiding the citizens in going outside the colosseum.
"Alfred, I need you to take Felicia and Gideon out of here, now. You must promise me that they will escape safely no matter what happens," Arthur said, wildly grabbing Alfred's arms as he gave his order.
"Arthur, you must be mistaken. We cannot leave without you. We are definitely not leaving joy here!" Felicia said, bewildered by Arthur Skywalker's decision.
"Felicia, my love. You must understand this decision I have made. You know I prioritize the safety of the kingdom over my own. Being said that, it is a given that your safety is included. Please, start walking and getting to safety. Let me handle the situation here," Arthur said with a faint smile on his face as he tried holding back his tears.
Felicia remained adamant in staying. However, Alfred starting grabbing her arms gently, pulling her away.
Felicia was left with no choice but to follow Arthur's orders. While the three of them walk away from Arthur, that is when tears started falling down from their eyes.
"May the god of skies and god of all gods protect you, my love. I know that he will protect you, for all our life we have done nothing but worship him. Gideon, my child, be valiant. Protect those who deem worthy and may you achieve your goals."
Everything started crumbling as the meteors started crashing down the colosseum, leaving Arthur alone with tears falling from his eyes.
This was Belingfort's descent. After the greatest blessing that Arthur received, came a disaster that nobody anticipated.
