Chapter 6
Sjin, Eric, the creeper and the Royal Enderguards arrived in what seemed to be a large throne room. As Sjin's eyes adjusted to the dark he noticed the room was indeed a
large throne room and at the far end were two thrones one considerable larger than the other.
The smaller one was made almost entirely out of what can only be described as dark matter and was encrust with blood red diamonds. The larger was a more grand, ornate and beautiful version of Rythian's, it made his look like a cheap, inaccurate model of the one that stood before Sjin and the others now.
Just as Sjin was getting to grips with his surroundings a trumpet sounded and all around him Endermen stooped low in deep bows so, to try and blend in, he joined in then Sjin's worst fears came true both the Enderdragon and Darkness entered the room and sat on their thrones but instead of attacking Sjin the Enderdragon did something that amazed Sjin he spoke to Sjin in a calm and even slightly loving voice but one that appear hurt by Sjin's actions.
"No son of mine should believe he should bow before me, least of all you Sjin" bewildered Sjin stood up and looked for once at the Enderdragon's eyes and realised they were not the dark hatred filled eyes of a killer he had been led to believe but soft, warm eyes of a father greeting a long lost son that he loved dearly and Darkness was also smiling at him like a mother who's son has just had his first day at school.
Noticing Sjin's uncertainty the Enderdragon continued. "Have no fear I will explain all questions you have to ask".
"Ok" agreed Sjin while trying to calm his nerves and limit any stutters.
"Please leave us" said Darkness her voice as softly as silk and with that all went to leave. "Sjin, Eric and Jacob you need to stay" She continued the three froze and returned to their original places.
"Firstly Jacob thank you for coming to my sons needs in times when all seemed lost."
"Hisss, it isssss an honour to sssserve you and your family alssso I have ssssworn to ssserve your sssson" hissed Jacob.
"Thank you as always" continued the Enderdragon and as if he could read his master's mind Jacob left.
"My dear Eric you have proved yourself again this time saving the life of my son, is there no end to your loyalty?" praised the Darkness and again as he knew what the Royal couple were thinking Eric left of for the court physician.
Almost as soon as he left Darkness shed her powerful aura and ran and threw her arms around Sjin who, for what felt like the first time in his life, felt completely happy and complete.
"Now to the serious business at hand" said the Enderdragon breaking Sjin's Mother and Son moment but not fully as they walked back to the Enderdragon, Darkness had her arm around Sjin's shoulders and he his around hers.
"Fear not my son, I will answer all questions and fears in due course." comforted the Enderdragon.
"Ok" agreed Sjin, somehow comforted by Darkness's loving motherly nature.
"Now I will start with explaining your life and why this strong fire has now grown inside you."
"Ok" agreed Sjin, again not knowing what else to say.
"Right, I am your father and Darkness is your mother, you lived with us 'till you were a small 3 year old then we decided the best thing was to send you to live with a different family to make sure you were safe for we feared someone would attack you for you could not control your powers and your position in line for the throne is one that many would like also, we believed that you needed to learn about the outside world." the Enderdragon explained which cause Sjin to freeze from shock but the Enderdragon did not see this or chose to ignore it for he continued normally.
"When you entered the human land we did not know what was best for you so we sent you to an orphanage where you lived happily until you were about 18. When your powers had started and you became in to farming and nature also you started to become anti-violence even towards mobs so you became an outsider and fled. We sent out patrols to find you and when they did they led me to you and when I saw you, this being years later you had found a place to live and you were living with a Canadian who's name I don't recall but to save you from your powers before they were ready I erased some and tweaked some of your memories." He explained to a surprised Sjin who knew not what to say.
"Now it will explain why Rythian hates you and wants you dead." This caused Sjin to shudder and Darkness drew him closer but the Enderdragon completely blanked this and continued.
"The reason is he believed he was the one true Enderborn who would inherit my throne but what he fails to realise is that he is the child of an normal Enderman lord and a normal human so could never take my throne but due to his Nobel blood the Endermen were prepared to serve him and live with his torture but when you came of age so to speak, your powers developed to their full strength, the Endermen realised there was another way and they could escape Rythian's cruelty and started to leave him. This angered Rythian and he discovered you and wants to end the Endermans betrayal and he believes the only way to do that is to silence you." the Enderdragon finished his voice frank and honest, then he noticed how shaken Sjin looked and his emotional barrier of ice melted and he step forward and wrapped his wing around Sjin in a protective hug.
"We will discuss more about further plans in the morning, right now Sjin needs his sleep" interrupt Darkness the she turned to Sjin and said "I will get one of the guards to take you to your room."
Sjin really did not like the sound of this but went along with it anyway, knowing it would please his Mother.
Almost as soon as Darkness had finished speaking, an Enderhybrid guard (The original Enderhybrids were child of a human and the past Enderdragons but the recent Guards are their descendants that are more powerful than the child of an Enderman and a human but less powerful than Sjin) entered the room.
"Aw Deadlox right on cue as always" added the Enderdragon "take Sjin to his room now" he finished.
"Yes Sire" answered Deadlox, apparently reluctant to take on this task for some reason but he gestured to Sjin to follow and lead him to his room.
A/N: So Sjin has discovered who he really is and has taken it relatively well and Deadlox has a grudge on Sjin for some reason also what will Rythian do now.
