"Will this really work?" Rain thought to himself as the Ebizo soldiers led him to the throne room to meet Lord Izumi.
Rain held the 'thing' Lord Izumi wanted most, granting him an audience with him. They couldn't kill him because he possessed the item that could literally save their lives.
Everything happened so fast, and before Rain knew it, he had found himself on his knees inside the throne room, with Lord Izumi's overpowering presence bearing down on him.
"My soldiers said you have what we wanted the most," Lord Izumi's voice boomed.
Rain swallowed hard, his throat dry. "T-that's right."
"And how exactly do you know what we want, boy? Choose your words wisely, for depending on your answer, you might not live to see the next moment."
