Both groups hoped to maintain peace among thier people. But over the years, The 2 groups fell into political dispute, thus severing thier ties with eachother. And shortly, the 2 groups made war..or so it would seem..
The leader of Bai-lan, Lao-Ban, worried about the safety and stability of his people. Days went by, and over time, he had been recieving many threats by the Kokoran leaders. But he did not give up. In the end, he swore to try and reunite the 2 clans at any cost..but after certain negociations failed, he realized that he was a fool.
He confided in his only grandaugther, The beautiful and intellegent Sei.
Sei had grown up under the strictest codes and laws of the White Lotus. She also had power over a large group of Sub-ordinanats and she was determined to restor peace as well.
Over time, both organizations were at a stand still.
It was during this time that a lone Kokoran soldier took it upon herself to turn her back on the organization.
She grew tired of war..tireed of killing..a solution had to be reached...
To find that solution..She had to get in contact with Lao-Ban himself. And once she did..
Her life would change for the better...
"You say you have severed your ties with the Kokoran"
Lao-ban was meeting with the mysterious soldier that sent him a message...
"Yes sir..I cannot dedicate my self to a unworthy cause. I wish only to establish peace. You have heard about the string of Kokoran incidents."
Lao-ban nodded."yes..and it pains me to hear of such things.."
"I feel the same. But know this..they have targeted you and your grandaughter..I overheard them planning some sort of asssassination attempt. But I can stop them..I may be able to protect you both. Please give me a chance.."
"Hmm..is this true..Of course it may be.."
'No sir..It it not a lie... I spied on my superiors myself..."
Lao- ban thought it over a bit.
"Very well..you are welcolm here. i will place you under the guidence of my grandaughter, Sei. Go and find her,
she may be in the garden."
"Thank you sir..I'll protect your grandaughter with my life. By the way, i am named Takara. it is an honor.."
Takara bowed before leaving.
"Sir.."one of Lao-Bans servents asked uneasily. "You can trust her"
"You are aware that she is of the Black Lotus's.."
Lao-ban Waved him off.
"Be at ease..If she was lying..She may have killed me on the spot. Even Lee said her chie was pure goodness. Her intentions are nobel"
'I..I understand"
'Perhapes fate has ordained Takara and my Sei to meet and one day, both work out a peace ful solution. Together they..will help us establish a better future for both our people." "Perhaps we may see the day when our two clans make peace once again..
Takara made her way to the main garden Lao-Ban had mentioned. After a bit of spying, She came across a beautiful Asian girl.
She was dressed in purple and she seemed to be picking flowers.
"That must be Sei..' Takara thought. The girl noticed Takara staring at her. she gave her a welcoming look.
'Hi there. Youu must be Takara. I'm Sei..." She went over to Takara and shook her hand. "Ive heard alot about you from grandfather..So..you really hate your former goup. I understand. It must be hard, leaving everyone behind."
"no not at all Sei. i did it of free will. I want peace..thats all"
'That's admirable, I see. "
"Um, Sei"
'What'
"Thank You for helping me out. ya know..welcolming me and all"
"but don't you hate me? I am from the Kokoran after all.. and I know how you feel"
'No..not at all. I have no reason to hate you, now do I? After all you warned us about a attack and you said it yourself You wish to allie with us. I really see no harm in that"
Takara gave Sei a look again "If you say so..Say, you need help picking those flowers"
"Sure"
The two girls picked the flowers and chatted among themselves. Over the course of time...Sei and Takara became good friends.
However..that same night..Both Sei and Takara would experience a great tragidy..one that would Effect them as well and would change thier lives forever..
