The Five Foundations

A sunny day in Byre Town, even though the city is quiet, it is quite worthy of being called a city. The city becomes the location for the meeting of the 'five foundations'

Even though they are called the five foundations, now only four people come to meet them. Because Klax, who used to be the captain of the Gorgon fortress, is now a temporary captain in the city of Byre. He also represents Gorgon and Byre Town.

The meeting was held at the Byre Town military office. At the conference table in the office.

each of the captains gathered there. Klax, who represents Byre Town as the host, sits in the south seat. As for someone sitting right in front of him, captain D'Breick representing the city of Eastend.

On the west side, one with a small stature. He's still around the same age as Klax. His short and spiky hairstyle makes her face look very youthful. He is a young captain named Moralev from the city of Minerock. Even though the city is a mining town, its face and appearance do not describe that of a miner.

On the east side, sat a man with a fierce face, with an earring in the left ear, and he always wore a fiddler cap and dark glasses. With long, irregular curls in black, adding to the weirdness. The 40-year-old captain couldn't get away from a cigar. He always burns a cigar at any time, even at formal meetings. He is the captain of Navel 'the conqueror of the seas'. The nickname 'the conqueror of the seas' is not just a nickname. Behind that nickname, there was an achievement that he gave to this world.

Navel loves fishing and exploring. He loved sailing. For him, he felt strange when he had set foot on land. Since childhood, he has followed his father who is also a sailor. Until now he is very used to going to sea.

Even though he has navigated most of the seas and oceans in this world, his nickname is not because of that. It was because he had found a safe passage through the ocean to White Land.

Before the safe route was found, to get to White Land you had to go through an extreme sea called the 'cursed sea'. Because all ships that wanted to go to White Land had to pass through the cursed sea. No wonder White Land is an uninhabited island and a Winterstone paradise.

That cursed sea is very dangerous, the atmosphere is always extreme. And every day there must be a strong storm. The current is so strong. The sailors who passed through the ocean would surely drown in the current. However, there are times when the ocean becomes bent when a certain month, in 12 months, the sea will only be calm and friendly when in the last month of the year, which is the twelfth month, the month of Pulcherrima, or the red moon.

People who will venture into the White Land will wait until the arrival of the month of Pulcherrima because only at that time the sailors can calmly without worrying about anything if they want to pass through the cursed sea.

However, thanks to the exploration made by Navel and his crew. He found a very safe route through the cursed sea to reach White Land. Thanks to Navel's invention, now all sailors can sail and explore at any time to White Land. They do not have to wait for the Pulcherrima month to come. Whenever the moon is, they can sail and venture into the white land through the cursed seas in peace.

Because Navel managed to find a safe route in that cursed sea, he was given the nickname by people, especially by sailors, as the conqueror of the seas. Not only that, that cursed sea has also renamed the Sea of ​​Navel.

Finally, the five foundations of Gatelain met and met face to face, even though there should have been five people. But now only four people were present because Rowen the Major and the captain of Byre Town had died from a Neiter attack.

Navel burned the cigar and sucked it in, then he said. "Hurry up, finish this meeting soon, I'm tired of the land". Navel wants this meeting to close the point and finish soon.

Then, Captain D'Breick stood up, he said: "you must have read my letter, and know what happened… so…".

Suddenly Navel interrupted D'Breick's conversation. He interrupted D'Breick's words. "Well ... even though I have partially forgotten ...". Then he sucked back the cigar. Then he put on a serious face and said. "Immediately, what do you want?". Navel glared at Captain D'Breick's face.

"Hahaha… you are indeed a person who does not like small talk," replied D'Breick while laughing because he saw navel who wanted to the points.

"Very well, the United of Regia is destroyed, I plan to invite you to attack Centrical City to beat Schlanger in the face and search for a general who doesn't know where he is". Captain D'Breick also close the point, he conveyed the reason why he collected the five foundations in one table. He intended to attack Schlanger.

"Huh… you are not General Hedorven. I will not obey your orders". Navel said sarcastically because he is a free person, difficult to control and a person who does not like being ordered around. He will just follow General Hedorven's orders because General Hedorven is highly respected by him. However, he did not want to obey Captain D'Breick's orders even though Captain D'Breick was older than him.

"Indeed, my request is very selfish. But I will not be silent if the old man disappears". Replied Captain D'Breick. Because he cares and worries about General Hedorven. He always called General Hedorven an old man.

"Huh, I want to save General Hedorven, but I don't want to be ordered by you". Answered Navel who still insisted on not wanting to be ordered by Captain D'Breick.

"Hahaha ... I like this. Alright, how about we finish it the Gatelain way?". Captain D'Breick laughs he looks excited.

"Hahaha ... how interesting" replied captain Navel because he felt challenged.

Indeed, the condition of the Gatelain people today is like a body without a head. They have now lost a leader after General Hedorven's whereabouts are unknown.

Like the old way used by the Gatelain people. They are also looking for a new leader using Gatelain way, namely by competing for the strength of who is the strongest.

Klax and Moralev were speechless as their senior captains argued. Even soon there will be a fight.

"Hahahaha ... I hope you don't cry, Navel". Captain D'Breick taunts Captain Navel. Then with a serious face, he clenched his fists and let out flames around those two fists.

By inhaling the cigar, Navel let out the cigar smoke slowly while taking out two pistols at his waist. Then say.

"I'll teach you how to put out a fire, D'Breick".

The situation heats up, making their fight inevitable.
