Chapter 1Episode 1- Red Eye Mistress

Long, long ago, in an alternate time frame, there were two cities. And in the less happy city lived Inko Venus Petrov. She wants to live happily just like any other person. She wants a joyus life if you may. And she's gonna get it however she sees fit. Now let the story begin...

As I sat up I looked around, trying to remember where I was. I was at some rich guy's house after a night out. I put on my clothes and grabbed my headphones out of my bag. I put them on and started to stuff money, jewelry, and other expensive things in my bag. I'm Inko petrov, the biggest known thief in all of Trap City. I'm known for being strong, quick, smart, and the oldest of my siblings. It's three of us Inko, Tayo, and Shego.

We all for some reason have red eyes. We used to be called the Red-eye children before we broke apart. My siblings started their groups while I went solo. But I work with Catra-a hacker- from time to time. As I zipped up my bag, I felt someone tap my shoulder. "What are you doing Lisa"! I took my headphones off and tried to distract him. "Did you have a nice time last night"?

"Why are you stuffing my things in your bag"? I sighed, "It's because I'm robbing you. And my name isn't Lisa, it's Inko". "But you told me your name was Lisa". "Well, it's time for me to go", I said, opening his window. He grabbed me and pulled me back onto the floor. "It didn't have to be this way". I kicked him in the face and knocked him out cold. His door opened and an old lady came in. "This dead beat still lives with his mother"! "Honey, call the police. A bandit has just attacked our son", she shouted in fear. "Dammit". I jumped out of the window and landed on the ground. I started to run and heard police sirens. The car had got there fast and was tailing me.

Someone with super speed ran up and grabbed me. "I got her", he shouted. I head butted him and he stumbled back, holding his bloody nose. "Ouch, my nose"! I kept running and was making my way to the bridge. It was lifting and it seemed like I wouldn't make it. I ran as fast as I could and jumped. Luckily, I made it to the other side and the police didn't. It was a slow walk back into Trap City. The town I had just escaped was RingTown. Everyone who's from there and lives there is called "Goodies". They grew up rich and stayed rich. They have good jobs and money.

You can't say the same for the Trap City "Bandits". Everyone who lives here is a criminal of some sort. Rather it be a murderer, thief, or anything else. I just so happened to be one too. My parents went missing when I was 12. Tayo was 9 and Shego was only 7 years old. We were left to raise ourselves. When we all became big enough to do it on our own, we agreed. I still stay in contact with them, but not as much as Shego and Tayo do. I went to Catra's place. She opened the door for me. "Hi Catra, I need you to run a security check for me... please".

Lord Raven's Court

In the year 556 of the Runtallian Calendar, a war broke out in the eastern frontier of the Kingdom of Runtallia between the eastern overlord, Duke Gaverone Walruse of Regalia, and the barbarian chief-thane known as Dariun Drunzelle of the Shiradonii tribe, one of the Four Great Tribes of Norsmund, a nation that borders the Kingdom, deemed to be the land of brutes and savages. As the Duke of Regalia marches with his army to defend the disputed land of Kurlon, the barbarians have taken such an opportune moment to launch another incursion near the eastern border of Regalia near the town of Flendle, with the intention of dividing his army. However, despite accepting the town and the surrounding local lords' territories as lost cause in the war in favor of Kurlon– a newly discovered territory bountiful with veins of iron and other minerals– the Duke tasks his third son, Lord Velmund Walruse, along with his retinue, the Order of the Raven Knights, to fend off the attack. Now faced with the plight of defending the border town against a 5,000-strong Norsmundi army with his few yet skilled knights, along with an ill-equipped and undermanned militia, Lord Velmund has no choice but to fulfill his duty as a noble, relying upon his wits and his few but capable retainers to survive his first battle at the tender age of sixteen summers and winters. Contrary to his timid, youthful, and innocent appearance, however, lies his sly and scheming nature, evident by his fondness of dark magical arts specializing in illusion spells. Nevertheless, he himself has no idea of what he is capable of, and what he is destined to become. Meanwhile, further east at the frontier with Norsmund, a plot hatches to ensnare the Duke within the clutches of his treacherous vassals. Not only his life is threatened by these schemes, but his sons Theo and Varus as well. With this scheme put into motion, the Duke and Velmund's siblings, Varus and Theo, would taste fate's twisted humor, with the former meeting his demise in a blaze of glory amidst the field of battle, and the latter two vanishing in incidents shrouded by mysteries. With the death of the patriarch of Regalia and his heirs' disappearance, the young lord who was initially third in line for the succession of the ducal seat became its temporary occupant. And thus, the tale of him and his court begins… CHAPTER RELEASE: January 1st at 12:00 UTC
