"How long will it take for aid to reach us? The King ask looking to his advisor's. "Is surrender our only option, we still have no real reports on how the Three Suns Empire Fell.

A old advisor steps forward to speak, in grey robes with a head full of white hair and a deep profound gaze acquired from his many years in politics.

"This old man has heard the stories about a small force of female invaders, they appeared about ten years ago they wondered around before settling down in one of the Villages within the Three Suns boarders. They started protecting this small Village of a thousand declared themselves independent from the Empire after a year in the control of the females who call themselves the Draconian's, but from reports there is three different races among them. Three separate groups, one with five hundred beautiful women who have luminescent hair, the other two each have two hundred and fifty. One being of women who hold some resemblance to half dragon's, the last group are otherworldly beauties who are fairy like existences. All three groups are extremely beautiful, the reports even say many n.o.bles tried to rebel just to be the first to enslave these one thousand beauties."

"While I too find it hard to believe they defeated the combined armies of The Three Suns Empire, Rebel n.o.bles and a Cult whose numbers were no less than three hundred thousand this is all the information I posses on these female forces."

Elder Lloyd stepped back after finis.h.i.+ng his report. "Seems someone has been watching our neighbors closely, another elder steps up. A man with scheming eyes in luxurious robes, looking like he killed his way into his position. "Elder Lloyd those are only rumors, how do we know that Three Suns after conquering that small Village is not trying to expand into our lands."

"You can think whatever you like Elder Edmond I have confirmed reports of Three Suns submitting to the enemy forces after a crus.h.i.+ng defeat, we are unable to get any solid information about the specific methods used but even the n.o.bles lost all their military forces. Disbanding them and losing much of their power in the Empire after the takeover."

Elder Edmond once more speaks up. "This is why we can not surrender they only have four thousand men, after the n.o.bles took away more than three hundred thousand and planed to rebel. They now have less than our forces who is to say we can't hold out for a few weeks until help arrives to overwhelm them with numbers. No one will allow free growth, we just need to ally with the neighboring Kingdoms and Empires to crush these enemies then split their land. Tell me Elder Lloyd do you think they would not help us if they can gain a piece of land from The Three Suns Empire!"

Watching his two top advisors argue he thinks of his young friend Emperor Three Suns, he knows Three Suns would never attack him without reason, much less without talking to him face to face.

King Flame Heart closed his eyes thinking about how unstable the neighboring Empire has been over the past few years even before the invaders showed up, a friend from the south now puppeted by a foreign force. Sitting on his throne is the elderly King who expanded his land through war in his youth until he could no longer hold a sword in his hands due to old age, no sons to give his kingdom to just a bunch of power hungry counsel members who are waiting for him to die. Always trying to marry their sons to his daughters.

"Leave and think on this matter, once we have word on reinforcements we can make a plan until then there is no need to sit here we have three days let us come together again tomorrow."

Struggling to his feet the King is helped by his two daughters as they leave the throne room.

"If only he would allow us to marry his daughters we could have a new younger King"

"He will die soon why worry over this, after fighting off this invasion he might die then they won't have a right to the throne."

"Shut up you lot!! I will not allow you to destroy his Family so long as I live!."

Leaving enraged Elder Lloyd who served the King for more than half his life, both men long ago bonded as sworn brothers during the days of expanding the Kingdom. One a great military leader the other while just average on the battlefield is a Master when it comes to Politics and espionage.

....

In a secret chamber a few hours later.

"We should move to Kill the King tonight, we have everything set up he has ruled for far to long without appointing an heir, how can he not have chosen after all this time they just want to hold onto power longer."

"Tonight we rid ourselves of both the King and his brother Elder Lloyd"

Sitting in the corner while the others chat is Elder Edmond with a sinister grin on his face and a crown on his head.

.....

In a courtyard inside Bright Heart Palace.

"Brother we have to leave my spies have already seen most of the guards leave their post, they will act against you tonight!!" Looking over at the worried younger brother of his, King Flame Heart shakes his head saying. "They won't allow me to leave the Palace even if I try they will act upon me, I will entrust my family to you dear brother after all the a.s.sa.s.sinations and murders of my bloodline how could I not be ready to save the few remaining members. Take them and meet with Three Suns ask him to take care of my family he owes me a few favors after all. I will stay here and keep their attention, take them and leave now my personal guard is already ready to move once you arrive."

Looking at King Flame Heart, Lloyd could not stop his tear's from running down his face as hatred consumed his heart vowing to return avenging his brother who saved his life countless times on the battlefield became King even appointed him the position of Elder. "Alright Flame Heart I, Lloyd swear to lead your girls to safety even at the cost of my life, but don't blame me for returning to aid you once its done. I will ask if they will provide help to me in rescuing you, if not I will come back alone for you!"

"Don't be like this Lloyd you know as much as I war is never fair, those with power will use it against those without it. Lets just hope this new Empress is willing to save my family without my surrender, after all they want the kingdom not extra support."

Looking at Lloyd leave King Flame Heart moves to his bed room, as he begins putting on his military uniform one last time admiring his trusted sword that has been with him for his entire reign.

In the darkness of night in the Palace forces move about, some leaving without a trace others moving to execute their long time King of Thagia. Everyone having their own motives and wishes as this day will forever be remembered by them. Those who killed their king, and the Twin sisters who will avenge their father giving up everything for power.
