Shallow Tears
For decades, terror has grasped the people across the land. Towns, cities even, have been burned down and the people enslaved under the Morandi kingdom. Soon, news spread to other kingdoms. Many of them tried to stand up to Morandi but alas they were beaten. In less than a year, the leader of the Morandi kingdom, Serith Morandi, had captured millions of acres across the continent.
Serith Morandi was feared greatly. Not only was he a strong and ruthless king, he was a powerful sorcerer. He could make just about anyone obey him. He also had two sons, Imao and Atheron, who were a lot like him.
A few years later, Serith spotted a small town on a map in his study. He decided it was time to let his sons conquer it. So he called for his sons and gave them the equipment and soldiers needed to bring this town to its knees. A few hours later, the brothers were off on their journey to this town.
After a few weeks later, the two brothers arrived at the town and began to attack. Many tried to flee but were caught except a young boy and girl. Imao, the youngest, spotted these two escaping into the woods. He could feel their powers, stronger than what would be considered normal for children *. So he left the battle (which was just about over) to follow these two children.
"Kira, you stay here in the shadows of these trees to hide. I need to find a bigger hiding spot. Remember to stay quiet." Takano, Kira's older brother said as he placed her in a small hole under a log. Kira nods her answer and looks longingly at her brother's back. Suddenly, Imao bursts out of some bushes nearby and quickly knocks Takano uncontious before he could defend himself.
"One down, one more to go." Imao murmurs. He then turns toward Kira's hiding place. He smirks as he walks over towards Kira. Kira tries to move farther into the hole but she realizes that she's already at the back. " Now I have you little one." Imao says as he reaches for her.
