Prologue
It was always the same way, peace never settled for very long before another bloody war took over. Couldn't Begnion just be sated with what they had and not try to rule the world or whatever? Apparently, that was a no, seeing as the Begnion senators had started attacking Daein, again. At first, Queen Micaiah refused to believe that the country ruled by her considerate, level-headed sister would declare war, or even fight at all. But of course she soon received a visit from Sanaki herself. The senators had snapped from greed and bloodlust and urged Empress Sanaki to declare war on Daein. War, a pointless genocide which every country was trying to avoid, seeing as they were still recovering from damages from the war just 6 months ago, was the last thing Sanaki ever wanted to think about. When she demanded to know why they would suggest such an idiotic action, the senators weaved a web of lies about Daein and its Queen. Of course, Sanaki believed none of it, and refused once again. Infuriated, the senators accused the Empress of being too close to her sister, Queen of Daein, and ordered an assassination. Senator Aries then crowned himself King, and Sanaki barely escaped with her life. Sanaki fled to Daein, and then an enraged Micaiah readily agreed to fight.
It was the bloodiest war the continent of Tellius had ever seen. Anyone would have been enraged when Sanaki told all of the countless lies and stories the Senators told her to try and sway her to go to war. The soldiers brandished the weapons they had hoped never to set eyes upon again, their raised their lances and lived once again on the battlefield, a slaughter-house with only one rule: kill or be killed.
And what of war's pathetic toys? The poor people, fighting only for themselves, spilling countless amounts of blood, steadily pulled apart from inside out. Blood, mixed with bitter tears, cascades down like tears. One by One, they'll all fall apart, killed by another's spear, or their own minds…
Prologue End
A/N: If you haven't realized already, I kill EVERYONE. I'm gonna go pairing by pairing, which means that I have to try to put as much people as I can into pairings. The first pairing to be shattered will be Leonardo/Edward, so if anyone can suggest any pairings to me, that'd be great!
