Prologue:
My name is Reina Amanei. I am the Kaedara'ina'Nokei; oldest princess of the Nokei. I am a daughter of Faolin Nokei. When we were first created, there was only two of us. Twins, a boy, named Akihiko, and a girl, named Akiko. We are their children.
All sixteen, nearly seventeen, years of my life I have been taught to fight, to lead, and to not fear death; and to hate the Serpiente. Our natural enemies, the serpents of Keisha.
They took from me my two eldest brothers and a sister whom I shall never see again in this life. Only three children remain, my two sisters and I.
Ecl proceeds to slowly take claim of my mother. I will mourn her loss when she is taken, damned to swim in the sea of Ecl forever and eternity. My youngest sister, nearly ten years old now, never knew my brothers. Nor did my other sister, who is nearly twelve years of age. They're growing so fast. Adrina, with her black hair and eyes of ice bluer than most, and Hotaei, with her long brown hair and dark purple eyes.
Had my eldest brother lived, he would be nearly seventeen now; but he was murdered, brutally, on his eleventh birthday.
I never met him. I only met one of my brothers, both of whom are dead; Tray and Jayke.
Days and weeks and months and years.
I miss them.
Days and weeks and months and years.
They are in the void.
Days and weeks and months and years.
Vasii did not come home last night.
Days and weeks and months and years.
Am I next?
Days and weeks and months and years.
The war is nearly lost.
Days and weeks and months and years.
Someone help us.
