Reva's Sudden Proposal
"The four friends?" Damien asked as he tilted his head.
Reva nodded and said as she looked at the horizon, "Yes. The leader and his three best friends. Since they knew and trusted each other, they all had one of the four keys to the gateway."
"Now that's something I didn't expect, especially when the current state of the empires doesn't seem as if they are best friends," Damien was surprised but not that much since he knew best that people change over time and might even forget their roots, just like how the descendants of these four friends must have forgotten about their ancestors' friendship.
Damien then asked, "Anyway, why did they split up if they were friends? Did they have some sort of conflict amongst them or something?"
