The Sacrifice

At the inner Ice Palace which is where the throne room of the Ice King. He happily watches over his daughter while sitting on his Ice Throne.

An Ice Guard rushes inside and reported of the attack led by the majestic Fire Emperor.

His trusted ally, the Ice General quickly responsed and gathered the Ice Army for the war. While the king orders for the princess' safety.

The Ice Army marched and protects the border meanwhile the Ice King prepares for the bloody war. His daughter, the young Ice Princess Bianca, pleaded for his absence.

He reminded her the responsibility of a king. To sacrifice for everyone, to save his kingdom and protect his family. Caressed his daughter's face. "You must and will do everything for everyone. That's our responsibility."

In his hand, the Ruler's Phoenix Necklace. He took it from a box and wore it on the princess.

"You're beautiful, my princess."

A last compliment before war. Bianca made her father vow that he would guide her if he leaves one day. At the same time, she vowed to protect her people and the Icelands from any form of danger with her life, as she gazed over the Ice Throne.

At war where the Fire King awaits for his enemy. The Ice King arrives with rage and hatred, threatens him with his Supreme Frozen Sword that he will later conquer the Firelands if he won't step back.

Unfortunately, due to the thousands of years of war between the two lands, the Fire King attacks with a murderous gesture. The Ice King blocked.

A mere battle began by exchanging attacks. Both advanced and retreated only to notice that they have fallen into a trap planned by a meticulous villain.

The destructive explosion made an impact to both kings who were weakened by their battle. Faced by the reality that they shouldn't have fought, their last words before death was for peace and enlightenment.

[500 years later] After the death of the Fire King and Ice King their chosen successors ascended. The young rulers of both kingdoms made an agreement of truce and peace for hundreds of years.

Due to lack of communication and false rumors, the trust they built slowly became doubt.

Although as part of the royal family, becoming a good-for-nothing princess might be worse than serving the royal military and defense. Given the exclusive title, the Noble Ladyguard of Frost. She is Bianca's direct cousin and reports daily of any suspicious movements by the enemy.

"Your Royal Highness, the young king has advanced into a higher-level. His magic might surpass yours if we are not cautious."

Bianca dismissed her cousin's strong doubt and reminded that trust is valued in an alliance to bring peace. As of her major reason, an advanced ritual is scheduled to happen in a few months.

Originally the truce took effect after the new Fire King saved her from an assassination attempt. Later they found that the rebellious Fire Prince planned it.

A few months passed, the day of the Ceremonial Ritual has arrived. Both rulers appeared at the Supreme Temple with no hostility for the same ambition of obtaining the sacred weapons.
