This story tell the prologue of a future story I will write. 

A long time ago, twins were born. One bore the mark of purity and the other of darkness.They were enemies and they wanted to kill each other. They battled and each wounded the other with fatal blows in front of an empty throne. No one won and no one died.

They say that the pure brother wanted to share the territories, nevertheless the dark brother wanted more. He reunited the obscure creatures, the cruelest and most evil, and he declared war on his brother. The fight was severe and rough, extending over one hundred days and one hundred nights. However, no one won.

One day, the dark brother requested a duel fight. The story tells that the day before the confrontation, on the night he invoked all the demons and dark spirits who dwelled under the earth. When the day came, the dark brother arrived, alone, as agreed. Both grabbed their swords and fought fiercely, one imploring the peace, the other trying desperately with his blade to kill him and take control of the world. The night came and both brothers were still alive. They say that the dark brother put down his weapon and knelt in the middle of the fight.

But it wasn't to renounce victory.

As the sword retracted a huge crack opened under their feet and shook the world. The brothers looked at each other for the last time with love and hate in their eyes before they became engulfed in the fires of hell forever

They died as they were born : together.

After their death, the war continued to ravage the world. The sons of the brothers were rival enemies, each blaming the other for their father's death. Their kingdoms continued to be divided for many centuries warring against each other, causing destruction and devastation. Lakes of blood tainted the earth yet no one showed mercy or compassion as the killing massacred the villages and the innocents. A war of no winners, of no finality or resolution. A senseless war of death.

When the King Richard, descendant of the dark brother, killed the enemy prince, Rallar, he forced his rival to kneel before him. For the first time, the dark kingdom succeeded.

The defeated kingdom, the White City, lost its king and now had the eldest brother on the throne.

The world looked like a bloodbath. The hunger killed children and old men while the nobles filled themselves. ,

King Richard stole the riches from his rival and proposed marriage to Princess Emilia, his dead brother's daughter, so as to make peace between the two cities.

Everyone thought that the war ceased. The annihilation had lasted too many centuries, plunging the world into deep chaos. There were no fields, no wheat ; only the earth drenched in blood. With this wedding, the kingdoms could live in peace, without murder or blood. 

But Emilia knows that peace never lasts.
