Almost fifteen years ago came the end of the country of Kōsei. A war had been waged between Hirashi and Kōsei. The Royal family of Kōsei was inside their castle holding and a small celebration of the birth of their first and only child. Despite the occasion being small news had spread through the entire kingdom. The news of the baby being a boy of blonde hair, just like his father, and given then name of Roxas. Although that happy day marked their doom.
Once night had fallen troops from Kōsei had invaded the castle grounds. Slaughtering guard and bystander alike, soon they got into the castle. They again slaughtered the people inside, every guard to stop them. At the end they got King Ventus and his wife Queen Aqua.
When the slaughter was over Kōsei left the kingdom in shambles. Many believed Prince Roxas to be dead but no one could find his body. So others thought one of their troops had softened and spared the boy and had just taken him instead.
And so Kōsei became an obscure country that others had forgotten. Other countries claimed some of it's land but enough that one couldn't see the remains of the country. And so the people who were remaining kept the country running through the small village in the distance of the castle. Always hoping for the Prince to return and help build the country back.
The man finished the story and Roxas nodded in understanding. The girl smiled, "In the absence our family has run the village." Roxas began to look around the room. His name was engraved on the furniture and he sighed. He really was the prince. Roxas turned to them "I guess I am who you think but I have no idea how to do any of this."
Everyone in the room smiled and the children jumped in joy. Their prince was really alive. The girl curtsied in front of his and laughed a bit, "I'm Xion, Prince Roxas and until you can rule on your own my family will help you." Roxas laughed a bit as well knowing everything would take time to get used to. Her parents escorted all of them out of the castle and to the village.
