Chapter 1: The Prophecy of Beginning

The land of Malon was founded by a group of sea traveller lead by Riccian soon called King Berel, Priestess Gaiana and Kiwan. Years turn to century and the civilization they built was soon called Kingdom of Galliore.

The land of Malon was soon discovered by other travellers. People of Kingdom of Galliore didn't care as the land of Malon is a large piece of land. They occupy the east land while the new settlers built their own kingdoms far from their marked territory.

On the second hundredth years of the establishment of the Kingdom of Galliore, five artifacts descended from the sky buried themselves to five different directions sorrounding the kingdom. After the phenomenon, Priestess Gaiana's eyes turn gold as a prophecy of their kingdom flash on her head. With her instruction, the people built five towers sorrounding the kingdom where the five artifacts are buried. At the center of the five towers where the palace for royalties are located, a large piece of stone with the carvings of the prophecy was displayed for everyone to see.

The Prophecy of Beginning stated,

Years turn to century, century turns to decades, decades turn to millennium, this land would not be the same no longer held power.

Thy kingdom would not be long but don't lost hope thy kingdom can be saved.

This land was blessed by the heaven and earth as a King would be born on this land; heaven will announce the mighty one's arrival, five artifacts descended from heaven would ascend from earth.

Five artifacts under the five pilgrims.

Five pilgrims under the King.

Lead by the King, the kingdom would dominate the whole land.

Thy kingdom can be saved.

Years indeed turn to Century to Decades to Millenniums and the Land of Malon was no longer dominated by the first established kingdom. Three other kingdoms are built and small tribes established their own small kingdoms in the wild dominating the secluded areas.

Just like in the prophecy, the Kingdom of Galliore was no longer at the peak and can only wait for their saviour, the King, to be born.

Out from everyone's knowledge, the King they are longing was now on her way with her tattered clothes chapped lips disheveled appearance blood all over her body, caused by their own greed.

A King no one expected to be a 'her', a little girl they will label as a slave soon.

Chapter 2: The King Arrives

In the middle of the Colesium, a group of people with peculiar cloth and marks on their bodies are on their sorry state as the people around are yelling and laughing to their soon death.

This small group of people belong to a small tribe called Ollesion. They are captured by the people of Galliore a month ago, travel by feet for consecutive days without proper foods and rest, their state is no better than a dying person. Arriving at the kingdom, their tribe symbol, their flag was disrespected thrown to the floor by the soldiers of Galliore and asked each of them to step their own flag symbolizing they are completely surrendering their identity to the kingdom, in exchange their lives would be spared and would even have the opportunity to serve the kingdom, to be a slave.

None among the people of Ollesion even facing the breath of death disrespect the symbol of their tribe and choose to die with dignity. The soldiers of Galliore seeing the stubbornness of their captives brought a show to the whole kingdom. They soon parade the people of Ollesion tribe to the whole kingdom to announce the event of their public execution the next day.

A young boy age ten after their parade chose to give up his tribe for his life, this boy is called Al Yun. That night, the young boy Al Yun step on the flag of their tribe in front of his tribesmen, his eyes are saluting his clan bidding them a farewell.

The Galliore soldiers' expectation of the commotion of the tribe didn't happen. The young boy is calm on his actions and his tribesmen are even more compose and calmer, they look at the young boy like they are giving him a great mission to accomplish. That night, the tribe leader asked the soldiers to spare the life of his five years old mute daughter but was only laughed by the soldiers. When the general heard about this request, he had give his order to his men.

The next day, the people of Ollesion are escorted to the entrainment ground of the kingdom. In the middle of the colesium, the small group of people on their tattered clothes are sorrounded by weapons for them to use. This is after announcing one of them will be spared if...just if any of them will survive the claws of the general's pets.

Two adult tigers are soon released. The two beasts are not fed last night, when seeing the group of fresh meats, they didn't waste a time and attacked them directly.

The people of Ollesion are not new to these beasts. They are people of nature, they live with the wild and survive from the wild. Ten adult men took care the two beasts while the rest sorrounded a certain area, in the middle of their formation is a five years old little girl who is shaking with fear.

Half of incense are burnt, the two beasts are killed by the people of Ollesion. None of them are killed but they are injured with the fierce battle.

Words rang that soon tear down the peaceful time of the tribe.

"Half of incense left."

They are asked only one of them is to be spared. After winning from the battle of the two beasts, they are expecting them to kill each other for the position of a life to be spared. The general is expecting the tribe leader to kill his own people for his daughter to be saved. What they didn't expect, these people had long gone accepted their own deaths.

All of them took their own weapon. Sorrounding the five years old little girl, they wound their own right palms and draw the blood to their faces. They all shouted words unknown to the people outside their tribe.

"Yan tin miakan hijh ji. Yan tin miakan hijh ji."

From afar, the young boy Al Yun whispered the same words.

The people of Ollesion stab their own heart, their lifeless bodies collapse to the ground one after another.

The five years old young girl blankly look at how her father's body collapse to the ground. Her young mind need to process how all the people she knew stab their own life while looking at her full of----hope?

Hundreds of thunders soon strike from the heaven followed by a heavy rain. The whole kingdom of Galliore is covered wet. While the people of Galliore are celebrating of the first rain of the year, a young soul was not.

The thunder and rain soon stopped. The sky turn bright like the phenomenon earlier was just a bluff of heaven. Five bright lights suddenly strike from heaven sorrounding the five corners of the kingdom.

That day, the whole kingdom celebrated even more when they learnt the five artifacts on the prophecy that buried their own had risen symbolizing their most awaited king had been born. The same day, four children are born and among them, three are boys. Among these three, two are from royal family and one is from an aristocrat family.

The people of Galliore can't tell whom among the three is the King mentioned on the prophecy but they didn't care, they know their King is now born and their kingdom would soon rise again.

In the middle of the celebration, the little girl named Adama witness these people's eyes full of hope the same as her tribesmen's eyes towards her before they killed their own lives. Adama, who is in daze of the celebration around while her tribesmen's corpse are sorrounding her, was soon shivered of the undescribable sensation overflowing inside her body.

Chapter 3: Awaken

Even with the joyous occasion, the soldiers didn't forget to brought the mute little girl to the house for slaves, there she was graded and displayed for a whole week to sell. With a reason she is too young adding her disabilities, no one is willing to pay for her thus she became a slave to the market, the lowest class of a slave.

Days goes on and the mute little girl didn't retain her innocent demeanor. She became stronger, wiser and too beautiful. At age ten, an ill-mannered old man almost bought her to be his play thing in bed. Adama was only spared when the old man was killed the next day. Starting that day, she hide her face with a mask with a reason of her noticeable beauty.

At age eleven, she saved a six years old little boy that made her promoted from a market slave to a slave of an aristocratic family. Her new life as an owned slave was lighter compared to the heavy chores at the market, she only have to attend the young boy's needs as his personal slave.

The young boy was named Renios Gil Bivios. He is among the three boys born the same day the King on the prophecy was born, with this, Gil was with a special identity just like the two princes who was born the same day as he is. The people of Galliore didn't know whom among the three was the King mentioned in the prophecy thus they worship all the three equally as their future ruler.

Years passed, one after another the five pilgrims was recognized by their artifacts and the King's identity was still unknown. The current emperor then suggested that the five pilgrims must choose among the three whom they will serve. Using a competition, the five pilgrims will recognize their King.

The young boy Gil at age fifteen entered the palace to compete against the two prince to win the five pilgrims' favor and the throne. Facing the schemes of the royal family, Gil's life inside the palace didn't go well but with a help of his wise and smart slave, Adama, the schemes of the royalties didn't go as they plan. With all the hardships and sacrifices of Adama, Gil's emotion towards her developed no longer as his slave, his friend, or his saviour but his lover. The bond of Gil and Adama surpassed the relationship of a master and slave soon they became a couple keeping this relationship only between the two of them.

The competition continued soon with the help of Adama, Gil won the five pilgrims' favor. He sat to the throne was recognized by the people of Galliore as their saviour, their King.

Soon, on the day of celebrating Adama's day of birth, a character of the word King appeared on her forehead while the five artifacts bow to her. This scene was seen only by the five pilgrims and Adama's beloved, Gil now known as King Hivian. With Adama's words, her identity as the king in the prophecy was kept only known by the five pilgrims and her beloved. Hiding her position as the real king, she became the hidden king in the prophecy.

Leading the five pilgrims to win back the glory of the kingdom, the outsiders didn't know Adama is their real king showering their praises to the wrong person. When the kingdom of Galliore earn back the glory of the whole land, Gil didn't waste time and married Adama whom in the eyes of the people of Galliore was not deserving to be their queen.

True to their thoughts, she didn't deserve to be a mere queen whom only under a power of her king.

The five pilgrims stayed silent under their real King's order.

Adama with her own ability, she won the heart of the people of Galliore. The whole kingdom loved and worshipped her. The King Hivian won many battles but their queen improved their way of living with her unique ways of cultivation of foods and an easier way to find a source of water. Her world is full of sweets and praise not noticing the illicit relationship of her king and her comrade. She didn't notice the envy and fear of the king when he saw his own people worshipping her loving her more than him. She didn't notice the envy gaze of her comrade her friend her sister when she earn the position of a queen of the kingdom and the man she loves.

She was killed by her two most loved and trusted people in the world.

At the middle of the joyous occasion, a five years old young girl was sorrounded by corpses of people and two behemoth bodies of tigers. The little girl stood at the middle of the colesium as she stare at a blank space in daze of what she just saw.

She had seen her future...her past...whatever it was called, it was all a mistake.

She had not recovered yet with the view of her clansmen dead bodies and her own death flashing on her head continuously when a strong force was pulling her soul, she closed her eyes to stabilize the sensation inside her.

It didn't take long, the little girl opened her eyes. The full of rage, hate, and betrayal eyes before was now replaced by a calm clear full of wisdom pair of beads. The little girl's eyes travel to the dead bodies of her tribe then to the joyous occasion of the people excitedly rushing out to see the five artifacts outside wasting the opportunity to see the King herself.

No one took a notice of the the supposed mute little girl whispered to the air,

"Yaken, Adama, miakan hijh ji."

It's her acceptance to lead their tribe. A tribe that no one to lead...for now.
