[center][h3]Rafflesian Palace Entrance[/h3][/center] Queen Carmine of Rafflesia approached the place shortly after her arrival in the kingdom. She could feel the vampire's aura in the air as she calmly walked in the place. A warrior, a sorceress and a descendant of a hero of yore before anything, Her Majesty maintained her composure while witnessing people being shocked by Frost's display of intimidation. Frost however, vanished shortly after. Carmine barely had time to face him.

The young wanderer however, kept his composure and started telling the knowledge he shared. As soon as he started to talk, the queen arrived. She gazed upon him and the two crossed eyes. Carmine felt a strong heat on her heart as well as a cold, flinching aura that was common amongst adventurers like him. And then he started to speak... [hider=Chris Falcon's story of the Gate of Nemesis] "Five hundred years ago, Mankind has discovered the existence of what we call 'Magic'. Magic is the source of a power that came from the cosmic radiation which flowed from the moon of this planet. Attracted by this radiation, a colony of humanoid dragons called the 'Vancians' terraformed this planet and created Eden, their biggest capital. [center][img]https://i.pinimg.com/564x/5c/3c/e8/5c3ce8b3ec2fec13cc19ebc294fdbaa1.jpg[/img][/center] And thusly, the Vancians created a peaceful society based on the principles of pursuing magical and scientific knowledge. They created a pocket dimension to ban all criminals to, called 'Nemesis', or in their own language, 'Avici Naraka'. However, the dimension grew exponentially to the point of becoming a distorted alternate reality, and the criminals banned to Nemesis had also magic knowledge. With the Vancians growing arrogant, they could not expect that the criminals would strike, and the great war of Nemesis happened. Their numbers dwindled to the point of near extinction. Eons passed, and humans were born as a result of the evolution from the dragonoids. Magic was gone for ages, with the humans that evolved being unable to understand their predecessors. Thus, mankind scattered all over the world, in different tribes. Those tribes grew to be powerful and prosperous civilizations, each with their own views on how to lead their people. Until the day of which Magic reappeared. As humanity tried to cope with the new powers they couldn't understand at first, the gates of Nemesis appeared once again. The criminals banned to that twisted reality spent eons shaping that world and became all sorts of monsters. [/hider] As he was about to finish, Carmine cheered. "[b][color=f6989d]You do seem to know a lot about the story of the world, young one![/color][/b]" She had one of those exaggerated sweatdrops and an embarrassed look as everyone gazed upon her, recomposing herself shortly after. To which Chris calmly replied, "[color=0072bc][b]So... after I've explained what I know from the myths of our ancestors, there's no one that needs to be sacrificed in order to keep the Gate of Nemesis from opening.[/b][/color]" Ammiras then looked at him. "And the reason for why you bested the ghouls at the streets earlier is..." "[color=0072bc][b]Ramirez mentioned the term 'Oriental Blue' out of a sudden. It's a book of Heroic tales common in the eastern lands. After the place of which I learned martial arts was burned to the ground, and its name forcibly erased from the records, I've decided to use my knowledge to be like one of the Heroes from this book to fulfill my vows of never using my arts for evil.[/b][/color]" Everybody remained silent. The young wanderer sat down on a chair and Wulfrick was the one to break the silence, "[b][color=aba000]We are at a loss of words. Your Najesty, King Ozias, has his concerns for his daughter, her highness.[/color][/b]" "[color=0072bc][b]And I am aware of her status as a descendant of Maya - I had explored and read a few books regarding the culture and story of this Kingdom, as you see, Master Wulfrick. I am only here on behalf of orders from his Majesty, but I don't believe to be fit or in proper condition to stand in front of two Wind Masters...[/b][/color]"
