Episode 1 A Profile of Courage
They only want to live their lives as easy and quiet in a place where they are free, peaceful and happy. In their returned to the place where they were born and grow up with are the beginning of their new life.
I am Zuriel, an orphan. My biological parents death are the most grievous loss to me, it is extremely serious worrying in its effects. It happened during the civil war in Dalphoon. We were sent into exile on the other county which no certainty to survived. We were held free in the midst of the battle but they forced the strongs elders to send off in a row to the battle and no one ever returned. King Zeba commanded the harshed searching of the exiled tribe to imprison once again.
My father Abiscus was the Horon tribe in charge but he was murdered by King Zeba. I was taken care of my cousin then soon send for adoption to a nearly relative because of the prolong searching of the exiled.
I was trained by my adoptive parents in fighting as a warrior, in archery, in horseback riding and in hunting wild beast. Until I was chosen the new Queen of Citadel of Carcas, Arisai, under the decree of King Zeba's successor. An opportunity to saved my father's tribe from the coming incurred wrath of annihilation.
But the king's successor was the one who helped her when his father was killed in a desserted area. They were childhood acquaintance.
And again by the edict approved by the King and executed by the prime minister, the Horons are in great danger. Only by the request and petition of the new chosen Queen will save them from g******e.
Being fated to become Queen, she was faced to meet the man of her dream to spent the rest of her life. Although it was a decree of becoming the queen, the king fell in love with her.
I will go to the king, eventhough it is against the Law. And if I perish, I perish... Zuriel said
Her courageous words are a classic statement of heroism. And you may find a surprising nonchalance. I'm sure other people would have done exactly the same thing. I was just in the right place at the right time.
People become heroes because they take quick action at that right time, while others stand watching in horror.
This moment has been echoed many times since as a successful racial minority in the Arisai Empire, Zuriel's people, the Horons, had not melted into their surroundings. Others were jealous of their success and separatism.
A vengeful prime minister, Zattu, made up his mind to destroy all of us. He issued an edict of government -sponsored g******e.
Would Zuriel intervene? Doing so I would risk my life. And what difference could I make? I was a powerless s*x partner to a king who strongly preferred women who never interfered with his wishes. I only came when he called, and he had not called me for a month.
And yet she alone, of all the womens had access to the king
Matthan reminded her of her unique place. Who knows but that you have come to royal position for such as time as this? Zuriel just happened to be chosen as the new queen. The King just happened to be unable to sleep and when he picked up some reading, just happened across an account of a good deed Zuriel's cousin Matthan had done.
The evil bastard Zattu just happened along at the crucial moment. This coincidences, along with Zuriel courage, tilted terrible events towards the Horons favor.
Were these really mere coincidences, Matthan?
It means extremely important Zuriel. All of life is under one command. Nothing just happens. These coincidences were part of the plan at most to save us all!
By all means we should protect our people, nobody else will do it. There are ways to let the enemies powerless. Though sometimes far from the certain ,evident, this tiny, often hated minority has survived and thrived down the period of a hundred years.
Yet while no other group has been so hated, no other group had shown the Horon's ability to overcome adversity. Nor can any other ethnic group alive today point to such continuity with their ancestors. They have endured as a unique and great people. How? Zuriel your courage and determining spirits for this crucial moment are our strongest weapons to act like a heroes while others just stand and watch!
Episode 2 The Plot
Zattu's plot to destroy Zuriel's tribes planted, been sponsored and verdict by King Aram. There is a certain people dispersed and scattered among the people in all provinces of your kingdom whose customs were different from those of all other people and who do not obey the King's laws.
It is not in the King's best interest to tolerate them.
Behind the wall, Matthan smirked and grated his teeth. You evil Zattu, you will regret your word. He has in mind but for the meantime he'll kept an eye on the minister's action.
At the Queen's royal room, Zuriel, undermine the things at the King's table, freely glancing on the West border of the palace trying to imbued her longing of her simple living with her love ones and relatives.
Zuriel.... Zuriel!
Matthan breathlessly shouting aloud!
Hey Matthan, what happened?
Breathing profusely, urgh...Zuriel.....urgh...please,
Come with me at the town market, mother needs oil for the bread. She wanted me to exchange firewoods
with the oil. Oh, I'm sorry Matthan I cannot, father will joined and teach
me for hunting wild beast tonight, so he forbid me to go anywhere.
Really, how I wish I could come with you, I've been polishing my bow for so long.
Well, we could practice the day after tomorrow.We'll catched up tomorrow Matthan, how about practicin at the river side down the mountain! Yeah, that's great, I'll go ahead now.
Uhm take care of yourself, you must leave now so you can get back before dark!
Matthan reminded Zuriel's uniqueness. Zuriel responded with action.Though she was strong enough like a warrior, she's lack of experience and expect things to be easy and think people to be honest and kind.
In the twelfth year of King Aram, Zattu honored, elevating him and giving him a seat of honor higher than that of all the other nobles. All the royal officials at the king's gate knelt down and paid honor to Zattu, for the king had commanded this concerning him.
Day after day the royal officials spoke to Matthan but he refused to comply. Therefore they told him about his behavior whether would be tolerated.
When Zattu saw that Matthan would not kneel down or pay him honor, he was enraged. Yet having learned who Matthan's people were, he scorned the idea of killing only Matthan. Instead Zattu looked for a way to destroy all Matthan's people, the Lecans, throughout the whole kingdom of Aram.
