Searching the books over and over, it was a rare sight to behold: Etsu on the desk, researching various texts of Aegon's time. A rare time for Dagas to catch some breath and recover from her rapist attacks.
She did not hold back-She violated him whenever possible, even in the bathroom. This was unworthy treatment so for what has he been summoned for!? Yet this time-
Suddenly books got thrown on the ground, a certain frustration was in Etsu's eyes. "Nothing!" she exclaimed enraged. "Nothing in these records!" "What kind of records?" he had to ask, the blade got curious.
"Aegonian records" the queen replied while turning to him. "They hold records of the Dominus Bloodline."
"Dominus Bloodline? What is that supposed to mean?"
"You did not hear of it?"
"What do you think!? Of course not, shows how much this royal house lacks of importance!"
The red haired sighed. "Or because you were awakened a few days ago. Anyway, could I go on?"
"You may."
Etsu stood up, facing Dagas very directly now and looking at him more serious than before.
"Dominus the 21st, the last in the bloodline before the noble house I originated from took over. Records say he suddenly disappeared 500 years ago. Nothing was found besides his blade, Ignis, who soon sent herself back in the core crystal, or so it's said. There was nothing found of him, not even a dead body. He was gone, for good. Yet soon later, days after his disappearance, a tale spread among Aegon, a rather suspicious tale."
After she said she stood up and slowly approached the self proclaimed, royal blade with an old book and opened it. Two pages only full of small pictures, trying to tell a story.
Normally he would not pay attention to Etsu's words, let alone pay attention to her on his own, she was not worth his time under "normal" circumstances. Yet this time… This time he was listening. A lost bloodline, a king who mysteriously disappeared. And then a tale spread. Quiet the story surrounding an unimportant king.
"This tale is about royalty, a king who fell to another king's corrupted mind in a war. They fought merciless on the battlefield until each solider from each's side fell and they remained standing, all alone on the battlefield. The king fell to his corrupted enemy but instead of ending it with death the king was cursed to live on as a blade, only remembering that he once ruled a land."
Dagas' eyes widened as he followed the pictures while Etsu was speaking. This tale… This stand alone tale...
"Yet I can only suspect it. I believe there is a connection yet I lack of proof" she finished and closed the book. "I was even about to give up. Yet when you-"
"What are you standing there woman!? Search!" Dag interrupted her commanding.
"Hold it! I read through all records I could find yet none mentioned a connection between Dominus the 21st and the tale. The only thing listed is a war between Solares and Aegon, right in the time of the."
"Then what are you waiting for!? Standing around like that won't get us any further to our goal!"
The red haired's eyes widened with surprise. This was unexpected. From one moment to another he became full of energy, determined to find out more about Dominus the 21st and his disappearance. Maybe, just maybe…
"Maybe that was me which means the land this so called Lady of Aegon rules is mine, my rightful kingdom!" he thought out loud. "And the enemy must have the records on how they disposed Dominus the 21st. This is perfect, I am so close to get my kingdom back, the one belonging to me alone!"
He turned around, laughing with joy in his mighty laugh, ignoring any of his surroundings. Yes, there is no doubt! He must depart with his mere driver at once to prove his heir.
Even Etsu realized his thought process and sighed yet also having a light smile on her face. "As you wish Milord."
