LOGIN“Why had her mother entrusted it to Alendria?”“Why had he remained silent about it until now?”Unable to contain herself any longer, she turned toward him "Alendria..." Azzura's voice immediately caught his attention as he looked down at her with quiet patience."I have wanted to ask you something." She slowly pushed herself into a seated position."It has been on my mind ever since we escaped."Her expression gradually became serious."Can you tell me..." She looked directly into his eyes "...what was inside the suitcase my mother handed to you the day our home was attacked?"The words came out clearly without hesitation and without trying to soften the question as sweat still covered her face from training, yet the intensity in her eyes overshadowed every sign of exhaustion.There was no room for excuses or half-truths, she wanted the answer and she wanted it now, dor a brief moment, Alendria simply looked at her.Then...a small smile slowly appeared across his face."I was beginni
"You now begin the journey into the next phase of your life, you stand as both the final heir and the first foundation of the newly reborn Sil Clan."Azzura listened silently."You will receive instruction in every discipline from combat to endurance, strategy, survival, leadership, weapons, physical conditioning and every skill necessary to preserve both your own life, and the future of your people."He looked directly into her eyes."There is only one thing I ask of you, keep an open mind and learn without pride, accept every correction without resentment, because only then can true growth begin."The entire training ground seemed to fall silent while Azzura slowly straightened her postur, she placed both feet firmly upon the ground, her shoulders relaxed and her chin lifted slightly, this time her eyes reflected complete determination."Thank you." She spoke with quiet confidence "I understand” she said with a respectful smile on her face "Then...let us begin." She needs her head f
The instructors demanded discipline, and not cruelty because every one of them understood a single truth, no one could predict what tomorrow might bring and if war eventually reached the underground realm...every second spent training today could save countless lives tomorrow.Meanwhile...Azzura slowly walked toward the bustling training district, athough this was only her second day inside the underground city, she no longer felt completely unfamiliar with its layout.The previous day's careful observation had already allowed her to memorize much of the tunnel's structure.Every major corridor, the important landmarks and every connecting passage…navigating through the underground realm had become considerably easier, as she approached the training grounds, a familiar voice greeted her warmly."Good morning Milady." Alendria stepped forward with his usual respectful smile."I hope you had a peaceful night's rest."Azzura returned the smile."I'm doing well, thank you for asking, Alen.
Only an oath that had already been engraved into his soul long before this night, Azzura listened quietly.She could tell immediately that Alendria was not merely trying to reassure her, he truly meant every single word. For someone who had lost almost everything, having someone whose loyalty remained unshaken brought a sense of comfort she had not felt in a very long time.Alendria eventually stepped backward and offered another respectful bow."You should get some proper rest now, Milady."His tone became gentler."You have learned more than enough for one day, you will need your strength for everything tomorrow brings."He briefly pointed toward the neighboring chamber."My room is directly next to yours, so if you require anything at all, you need only call and I will come immediately."A small smile returned to his face "Good night Milady."Azzura nodded warmly. "Alright, that sounds much better." Her own smile appeared naturally, she slowly pushed open the door leading into her c
Azzura remained silent because to her the story sounded almost unbelievable and yet somehow...everything Alendria described fit together perfectly, and then another thought returned."The grave." She spoke quietly."You still have not answered that."Alendria nodded “about that milady, no one knows where it is." His answer came without hesitation the resting place of Sir Silmon Sil has never been discovered, that remains one of history's greatest mysteries."He released a quiet sigh, “for generations countless descendants searched for it, even entire expeditions vanished trying to locate it…. All known ancient maps were collected and even old prophecies were studied, but no one succeeded."His expression softened. "Your mother however...dedicated a great portion of her life to finding it also" A gentle sadness entered his voice as he said those few words.Azzura looked up immediately."My mother?""Yes." Alendria smiled faintly."She believed with all her heart that the Progenitor's grav
He motioned toward the corridor ahead, “walk with me we still have quite a distance before reaching your chambers, and we have an even longer story waiting to be told." He smiled knowingly.Azzura remained exactly where she was, her folded arms never moved with that expression that remained completely unchanged."You may begin speaking whenever you wish." She spoke with quiet confidence."The distance to my room is hardly enough to call a journey, so there is no reason to delay any longer." She looked directly into his eyes.The corridor fell silent once more as Alendria realized there would be no escaping her questions any further. The history she sought had waited years to be told, and now, with every secret pressing against the walls of the hidden realm, the moment of truth had finally arrived.____________________The quiet footsteps of Azzura and Alendria echoed steadily through the long underground corridor. The chamber they had just left disappeared behind them, yet the mysterie
Rejecting them is not merely dangerous, it is suicidal and no one thinks such idea is the best.“Well I guess you are right my love, Azzura truly is my only daughter and the best I can do is preserve our dignity rather than look like a fool to them….so yes I respect your decision my love” Mr. Tomma
Tommaso raised an eyebrow slightly “but you see strangely enough…”A faint smile crossed Mr Giovanni’s face as he remembers the change on his son's face whenever he sees Azzura “he remembers your daughter”Tommaso blinked slowly.“Azzura?”“Yes Tom” Mr Giovanni replied as he turned fully towards Mr
“The suffocating aura he carried around himself wherever he goes feels like darkness itself followed him everywhere…now that I think about it, the way people instantly lowered their heads whenever he walked into a room make me want to puke right here and now, like what nonsense is all that for” Azz
“What, how can you say such father you didn't even ask for my consent?” Azzura the only child of Mr. Tommaso and Mrs Gaia of the Sil clan, a small and almost seen to be weak clan screamed out at her father after hearing the news of her already planned marriage with her betrothed Francisco of the Nd
