Episode 4: Borei Unmasked

*Point of View of Borei*

(Flashback begins, 10 years of age)

"It's getting pretty late, I should wrap up this training session pretty soon."

As I'm finishing up my fathers training regimen. I started to feel a aura I've never felt before...it wasn't even trying to hide its bloodlust..I could sense that it was approaching the Kiinshuu home, and fast.

I began to shake in fear, not knowing what will become of the home.

"The King himself and my father is there" I thought to myself as I stand there staring at the house.

After a few seconds, I finally I gained the courage to move, and ran from the training grounds to the entrance but before I could enter....

**multiple explosions**

***i get blown back and hit the gate***

"Borei!"

"Borei!!"

"Borei!!!"

Thats all I hear...but who is it? Who's calling my name?

Half-conscious, I slowly pick myself up and begin to enter the family home.

"Borei.."

"Borei..."

As I wandered around aimlessly, I still couldn't find out who was calling my name...the voice was beginning to sound faint.

All of a sudden...another explosion came from the chamber the king and my father were supposed to be in.

"FATHER!!!" I yelled

"Borei..!"

After turning the corner of the burning hallway, I see a man lying against the wall..dismembered beyond recognition.

"Borei..."

*tears begin to run down Borei's face*

"Father..."

At first glance, I couldn't tell it was him...but there's no mistaking his soft; kind voice.

"Borei...g-get out of here..."

*Borei's father coughs up blood*

"Locate The Agami...they will guide you..."

As I'm walking away trying to stop my tears, with his last breath he says

"Look after Nori, and always remember who you are..."

After leaving my home behind, I made my way to the City of Centerion where mother was at.

When I got there, mother explained everything to me.

She told me about the Bozic family and how they wanted the Kiinshuu family dead.

The Bozic family believed that we weren't fit to be royals and that our beliefs were something to laugh at.

They didn't agree with the idea of conjoining our kingdoms and calling a truce with the surrounding nations.

So they planned a coup d'etat in hopes of killing off our bloodline...but they failed.

They didn't know that the king had a son on the way...or that I managed to escape or the fact that my mother stayed in Centerion in case such things happened.

I told her father had mentioned "The Agami" and she said she knew Jin, a member of the group and that I could find him in the country of Soto.

She said they were of group of people who worked directly under the king and my father was his right hand man. She also mentioned that my father trained every single one of them and that they could train me.

So after we finished talking, I showered, ate; and set out on my journey to Soto.

(Flashback ends)

(Lost record #1: Shortly after the near annihilation of the Kiinshuu family...the Bozic family went on to invade the surrounding nations and waged war against the 5 kingdoms...recording it as the biggest war in the history of the world....meanwhile, The Agami awaits for the return of the King)

*Now 5 miles away from pillar mountain*

"It's been 14 years since the Bozic war, a battle that took my family and left the country of Ilgar and 4 other countries in turmoil..." I thought to myself as I make my way to Nori.

While I was in training, the grandmaster informed us about the war and forbade any of us to go...I've been feeling so much guilt...we could've probably stopped it but he insisted we wait for the young king.

"Thanks to the training I received from my father and Jin, im now finally able to do what we should've done a long time ago."

I was starting to believe that the young king was already dead...but when I felt his aura, I was relieved.

"I waited so long to restore my family's honor...but now the wait is over...we had no clues as to where his mother had given birth to him..but I can only assume that she's no longer with us..Nori has let us know that he his alive but I must hurry before the young kings life is taken as well..."
