[IC] War of the Ages

[Oblivion666]

Aden looked down at his sister and hugged her. "Don't worry hes just going to rest for a while. Being king was hard on him. So he simply need his rest. You will be able to see him one day, but for now let him sleep." Aden said rubbing her head and looking at Aria and Rose. "Go play with them, just don't learn from them. Mostly that one." Aden said pointing at Aria. He would then open the door to his room and close it behind him.

"Aden, I'm not seven!" Sapphire cries, rubbing tears out of her eyes. She turns and looks at Aria and Rose, who look at eachother and then back away. They didn't know what to do with Aden's sister. They didn't even know she existed until a few seconds ago. Sapphire turns and begins bashing on Aden's door. "He's dead, isn't he! He is! And who are they?" Sapphire cries. The two Sakuya princesses back away slowly.

[Oblivion666]

Aden grits his teeth from inside the room before opening it and grabbing her am. He then forcefully drags her to the room where his father was and kicked it open. "See! Hes just resting! Our father can't be dead, hes too strong to be dead! It may look like it, but..... I know hes just resting. He will wake up any minute and say that was a good nap! Now lets leave him alone and let him rest!" Aden shouted at her before storming off clenching his fist.

[datadogie]

"How could you be so mean!?" Sapphire screams out, crawling up to her father. She gently grabs his hand, crying onto his arm. "D-Dad? Daddy? King? Daddy?" She sobs, quivering, her tears spilling onto the man's arm. "Dad, wake up! Wake up!" She screams. Rose and Aria both watch her, looking sympathetic.

[Oblivion666]

Aden just stays silent outside the room, before all of a sudden Sol begins moving again and looks at Sapphire smiling. "Good nap." he spoke which proceeded to make Aden burst back into the room looking at Sol. "F-father?" Aden asked before Sol looked up to see Aden shedding a few tears and shook his head at both his children. "You two are the children of a proud strong country! We do not cry in the face of fear! We stand our ground and strike back! Now back to your rooms! I want you to think about this!" Sol said even standing as he had that same presence which made Aden nod rapidly before grabbing his sister and rushing both of them off to their room. And when they were both gone the man collasped on the ground again while Sinoa raised from the ground. "Like I said, when I possess the dead I know their thoughts and how they were in life. So when I know that giving them a will for a brief moment is easy enough. It is however very strainful." Sinoa said as she sat down and looked at the two sisters. "This will remain our secret of course. I intend to make it so they think their dad is simply traveling the world."

[datadogie]

"Y-Yes, sure." Rose says. Aria just nods. "Right. For the good of them." She adds in. Both of them were staring at Sol. Aria chuckles to herself. "You basically just made him ground his son and daughter. [i]You were sorry for me! How dare you be sorry for your father! Go to your rooms! You're grounded for mourning your father!" Rose' face goes pale. "Aria, what if that happened to us!" She says.

Sapphire was ecstatic with happiness that her father was alive again, bounding around her room, whooping. She heard the guard outside of her door groan, and she giggled. "Come on, the king is alive! Be happy!" She says, opening the door to peer at the man. "Now, go take a break!" She says, giving him a light shove away from the door.

[Oblivion666]

"If thats how you want to think about it, then by all means. I see it as them noting their fathers endless strength to defy death and continue on living." Sinoa said as she sunk back into the ground and the father would then stand up and walk to Aden's room where he would open the door and stare at his son. "Pathetic. A son of mine and you shed tears over the thought of me dying? You need to be strong in the face of danger, and with me stepping down so I can travel the world. You need to be strong for this kingdom. I don't want to hear any disgraces about Legel on my travels son." Sol said as Aden nodded in reply and closed the door. He then walked to his daughters room and opened her door. "How my sweet little angel? Did I look that bad?? Then you would hate to see the other guy." Sol said with a grin as he kneeled down and held his arms out. "Well? What have I taught you? Always strike when someones guard is open."

[datadogie]

Sapphire almost leaps onto her father, hugging him tightly as she fought back the tears. "I thought you were dead. You weren't moving. They told me that the doctors couldn't fix you up." She says, her voice broken.
"Okay, yeah, that too." Aria replies, smiling as she turns to her sister. "Seriously, that's a nice thing for her to do." Rose nods in agreement with her sister. "Otherwise Aden and..." Rose realized she didn't know the name of his sister, "His sister would be mourning for a long time."

[Oblivion666]

"Oof! Well you became stronger. thats my girl." Sol said stroking his daughters hair. "Oh our doctors couldn't tell a fatal injury from a cut. But this made me realize something. You and your brother rely too much on me, so I'm abdicating my rights as king and I put your brother in charge. So while I'm gone, you need to be a strong princess and listen to your brother. I need you to support your brother, can you do that for your daddy?" Sol asked smiling down at her.

[datadogie]

"Yes! Of course I can, dad! I can!" She sighs. "I can, as long as I'm allowed full privileges. The guards always tell me that I'm not allowed in places, and stuff. I can't exactly help my brother if I'm not allowed to go into certain places." Sapphire sighs, cuddling her father. "And also, I'm fifteen, not seven." She giggles.

[Oblivion666]

"I guess dad has troubles letting go of his little girl leash. You are correct, you are almost an adult. So I will allow your request. Do note though, this means you will have to be the adult you are becoming. This means going along with whatever your brother chooses." Sol said as he planted a kiss on her forehead and stood up. "Now I expect to hear good news from you two. Make me proud." Sol said as he walked out of her room and outside. He then got on a horse and looked at his kingdom before riding away, and about twenty miles out of the kingdoms view is where the man fell off the horse and fell on the ground where he sunk into it.

[datadogie]

Sapphire watches as her father leaves, and then exits her room, walking to her brother's room. She knocks, and then enters. "Aden, did you hear what dad said? You're in charge of the kingdom while he travels." She says, a big smile on her face. "And I have rights to do whatever I want now, without restrictions." Sapphire giggles and smiles at her brother.

[Oblivion666]

"Yeah I heard, and that's why I will continue what he started. And that's by disposing of the kingdom that tried to take our father. But I may be more lenient now. I will allow some of them to live." Aden stated before laying down in his bed. Shortly after Sinoa came walking through the room and collapsed on the bed beside him. Instantly asleep Aden looked at her then at Sapphire. "Oh yeah.. This is my soon to be wife. Which would make her your sister in law. I would tell you to say hi, but I think shes unconscious."

[datadogie]

Sapphire nods. "Okay. I'm going to go and look around places I wasn't allowed to before. See ya!" She says, before she exits his room and begins to walk away, Rose catching the door before it closes. "So, what now?" Rose asks, taking note that Sinoa had fallen asleep. "What are we going to do now?" Rose cocks her head, tail fluttering slightly. She wished that Sinoa wasn't there, so she could talk to Aden about the day they had kissed, but that didn't seem to be the case.

[Oblivion666]

"I don't know, whatever you two usually do on a daily basis. We simply ahve to wait until Sieg gets bac-" And before he could finish Sieg came walking in and rubbed the back of his head. "So do I get a raise? Cause I shit you not, they were at the port when I got there." Sieg said in which Aden looked at him funnily. "They?" He said which made Sieg nod as two people entered his room. A man with six swords and a normal looking female. "Aden correct? I am Nuko, prince of Cedia and this is my sister Mia. We heard what happened. And with your rash father gone and no longer declaring war on everyone. We felt we could reestablish our alliance our kingdoms once had." Nuko stated as he stared at Aden who stared back. "With you? Sure, but I plan on destroying Aluxaria." Aden proclaimed which made tilt his head. "Are they the only one?" Nuko asked which Aden nodded too. "Then we will help, but under one condition. We get bigger shares of the land once its conquered." Nuko asked which made Aden nod. "Fair enough, I planned on giving the kingdoms that helped the land anyway."

Nuko and Mia

[datadogie]

Rose stared at the two for a moment, blinking, and then she turned back to Aden. "You never told us about the share of lands, Aden." She says, crossing her arms with a friendly smirk. Rose turns to the prince and princess of Cedia, and bows her head slightly. "Rose, princess of Sakuya." She says, telling the new pair who she was.

[Oblivion666]

"Oh maybe that's cause you sass me." Aden said which made Nuko chuckle. "We know who you are, your mother always tries to charm her way into free alcohol." He said while Sinoa rose up and so did an Orc out of the ground. "I'm trying to sleep, please have discussion where sleeping people aren't located within a stepping distance. Sinoa said kissing Aden on the cheek before the orc then grabbed him and everyone else and dragged them outside. "That would be Sinoa princess of Chaoria and future queen on Legel." Aden said as the orc sank back into the ground but not before winking at Rose and doing an Orc laugh. "...... Anyway, lets go to the meeting room. We need to plan how we will go about the attacks." Aden said as he walked towards the destination.

[datadogie]

Rose' face goes red, and she rolls her eyes, beginning to follow Aden to the meeting room. "Are you sure that it's not Aria trying to charm her way into alcohol?" Aria sees them, and jogs over, following. "Where are we going?" She asks, and is answered by Rose telling her they were going to the meeting room.
Sapphire was already in the meeting room, looking around. It was one of the places she was not allowed in until now, because it was 'not the place for a child'.

[Oblivion666]

Sieg tagged along with them and as they were all in the meeting room, Aden looked at the war map laid on the table, then at Sapphire and motioned for her to join them. "Since Cedia has the biggest fleets out of all of us. it'd be wiser for you to attack by the sea than on land. Thats what the Legel troops are best in, as for Sakuya they are tricky with their different types of soldiers. Luckily it aint a defense battle or else Rose would fall apart under the pressure. And well I think only Sinoa will be joining from Chaoria's side. But that will be enough. Thoughts so far?" Aden asked

[datadogie]

Sapphire takes a seat next to her brother, and relaxes as her brother begins to speak to them. Aria and Rose both take seats. "We could send a flight of dragons over their fleets. There is a chance of them intercepting, however the dragons do not rely on the winds for speed. They could go right past." Aria says. Rose agrees with her through a single nod. Sapphire presumes they were talking about a battle of some sort.
