Chapter 12: The Truth Discovered

"What? That was so long ago! Why do you want to know?" Bahamut said.

"I deserve to know why my mother was murdered by your kind, God boy!" Ardyn snapped.

"What did you just call me?" Bahamut said.

"God Boy, now tell me what you did to my mother. Why did you kill her? What did she do wrong? What did I do wrong? Why do you keep on driving my family apart? Why do all of the Gods want to make me suffer?" Ardyn spat.

"Ardyn, please," Dorian said.

"What, Dorian? Do I not have the right to know what happened to my family? Do I not have the right to question why my mother was murdered! Do I not have the right to mourn the loss of my mother?" Ardyn spat.

"You do have the right but…" Dorian began.

"But what? I'm being too harsh? I'm being stupid? Well, I don't care! Bahamut ruined my life! This is what happens to me. Ta da!" Ardyn snapped.

"Ardyn, you're being unreasonable!" Dorian said.

"Oh, really? Do you think me wanting to find out what happened to my mother is unreasonable?" Ardyn asked fiercely.

"Ardyn, please stop being like this! I love you," Dorian said.

"You…love me? Even after what I have said?" Ardyn whispered.

"Yes," Dorian said, she then got on her toes, and gently kissed Ardyn's cheek.

Ardyn instantly turned red. Dorian giggled, and hugged him. Ardyn slightly relaxed, and returned the embrace. Bahamut watched, a disapproving look in his eyes.

"Its going to be okay, Ardyn. You have me, remember that," Dorian whispered, her lips on his neck.

"No its not," Ardyn said.

"Yes it is. Remember your friends. They are the people driving you forward. Please remember that," Dorian said.

"Dorian…" Ardyn whispered, they then kissed.

Soon, their backs were against a tree. Ardyn closed his eyes as Dorian kissed his neck. Bahamut watched with pure disgust. The kiss then broke apart, and Ardyn turned to Bahamut.

"Now, back to my mother. Why did you kill her?" Ardyn said, anger in his eyes.

"I can't tell you why," Bahamut said.

"Yes, you can! You are the strongest God of all! You should be able to tell me why your kind killed my mother!" Ardyn snapped.

"Fine! It was all with orders that I did so…" Bahamut said.

(Bahamut memory – Ardyn's mother's death)

"Bahamut, come to me!" the mystery God said. Bahamut hurried down the corridor to the stronger God. Once he made it, he immediately bowed. The mystery God looked down at him, its golden hair waving. "You may rise. I have a very important mission for you to do," the mystery God said.

"And what might that be, my Lord?" Bahamut said.

"To kill the young child's mother," the strongest God said.

"Which one? There are many young children out there," Bahamut said.

"Humania Lucis Caelum," the Lord said.

"Humania? I thought she hadn't done anything wrong! What has she done wrong?" Bahamut said.

"You really haven't noticed?" the Lord asked.

"Oh, that one. That wasn't a crime punishable by death, though," Bahamut said.

"She caused suffering throughout her whole kingdom by cutting off the trade routes. Many people died because of her foolishness," the Lord said.

"But, they already lost their father! I don't want to make an orphan out of two young children!" Bahamut protested.

"They will be good leaders, I just know it. Better than their parents would have ever been able to do. Do you want me to kill her myself?" the Lord said.

"No! I'll do it! I do not wish for that fate to fall upon anyone!" Bahamut exclaimed quickly.

With that, he bowed, and ran off, preparing his deadly wind attack.

(End Bahamut's memory)

"You killed my mother? It was all you? How dare you? How could you make an orphan out of two young children? How dare you interfere with our lives?" Ardyn shouted.

"I would've been killed! Killed by my own father!" Bahamut said.

"Enough interfering. This is my life! You do realize that you ruined a little boy's life right? You made an orphan out of a five year old! You made an orphan out of a four year old!" Ardyn yelled. "I am done with you. Get out of my sight."

A/N: We have now figured out why the Gods killed Ardyn's mother! Till next time!
