Will of the Kastha Chapter 1: Rough

Path of Shattered Lies: The Will of the Kastha

Date Rensith 204, 25659

Dear Readers,

My name is Eirlys Alexis Kastha. I am twenty five years old and am the current leader of my city alongside my younger twin, Endellion. In a week's time we shall depart for a battle that will have a turning point in future of our small world.

Sis, we should probably explain what it is we're fighting exactly and how it became this way. After all, they may not know.

Fine, Endellion. We are fighting the Ruler named Ryukan who has take it upon himself to rid our world of those who have the direct bloodline powers or those who simply can destroy him. He's a ruthless tyrant who has plunged our once prospering world into deceit and darkness through the lies that have been built over the ages.

The world we live in is called Mundo Del Sangre or World of Blood due to the fact we fight to survive. Some even are so blood thirsty they enjoy the killing in battle, but some like, Endellion, refuse the bloody path and become healers. Still we live to fight only and to protect ourselves and our village we've followed the paths of our parents to fight to protect the ones we love.

Or, like me, we fight to stop the injuries of our comrades. Healers may heal but we can fight and when we are needed there is no hesitation. We simply  cannot loose any healers. There are few left and less that are gifted with such power as my mother had and I wield.

Ryukan began to wage wars all over our world. Stealing and taking woman and children into slavery. It came to be were only a few still had the will to fight against him and those that didn't fought each other to be someone he would protect.. After all, he protected those that had the power to be of great use to him.

Our city never joined him. Our parents and their parents fought against him and now we do as well. We have come to love our city even after everything they've done. We still love our parents even when they sacrificed what they had to saving the city against him.

But I suppose that we should start when this decision to fight began for us. We were only four at the time and it would be the first time we were ever shown kindness by a complete stranger and she would be the only one to earn our love outside of our family.

Endellion, are you sure you want to tell them that part? I mean, we never told anyone!

Eirlys we have too. Besides, they have the right to know and I wouldn't feel right if we didn't give them the whole story before we left for battle.

Fine, explain away then, brother.

Thank you, sister. The day had began just like it always did when we were at the orphanage.
