Chapter 13 - Vengeance Brew

*The existence of a lost art being revived was on everyone's tongues and was spreading like wild fire across the whole trade route active across the whole world of Orbus, not only that many were eager to know about the sudden return of a God to the world and many were interested in joining to know more about the new culture. Not only that many retired adventurers who had retired because of injuries that couldn't be healed from potions funneled into the temple to get thier injuries healed. As more and more people got to know about Holy Magic and it's implication, followers under Arthur started to grow drastically and the "Words of the God of Justice" started to spread across to who continent at an alarming rate. With that came a grand revolution, culture and teaching spread the world, but also came the strike of fake and pretending. So, started to also fake that they follow Gods and tried to get rich through it, but in front of real Holy Magic and the adventurer's trust in the Temple of the God of Justice. Days passed and the temple grew both in power and influence.

Then came the day when Arthur got to hear about a news he would have never believed or imagined himself hearing, "The doors of Afrados had opened". I was like his homeland was calling him back when he had just completed everything important for the Temples and was wondering if he should sneak into Afrados to see what the condition of the Land once ruled by his Parents now stolen by force was doing. Newspapers given by an well known Organization of Orbus, The Shade had just released about Afrados's reopening to the outside world as they had taken care of their international matters. Arthur wanted revenge when he could and his determination was later agreed to by Raven making Arthur furthermore determined to take over Afrados and if possible find his parents.

The Princess Athina requested Arthur to let her travel alongside him because that would give her father enough courage to let her leave the Capital of Aradon, Atlush and travel to the Sea Continent, Tius where the four Great Kingdoms rule, which are Afrados, Tasuma, Darvish and Rupus. Adventuring was her dream and she was completely ready for potential risks, but Arthur was not prepared for something like this. After their conversation Arthur went to the Emperor to give him some information about the matter and the fact that he would like the Aradon Empire to remain seperate from his matter, knowing fully well that his could anger the Emperor or he would be pleased to have an new alley over seas. It was nether, the Emperor's blank face looking out of the open window was not something Arthur could have imagined, Emperor Duke's eyes told an untold story of an past he had never revealed and never would. After the brief silence the Emperor said that he would send his personal guards to guard his daughter and he would not help him as he requested, Arthur was a bit nervous because the Emperor seemed to be lost somewhere in his memories not coming back any time soon. Then Arthur left the Emperor alone to ponder and recollect himself, Arthur knew that everything was set and he was about to turn Afrados into the "Holy Nation".

The Sea Continent, Tius was ruled by four different races each ruling a part of the Continent bigger then an island and smaller then a real Continent. Afrados was ruled by Humans and was once the Holy Kingdom till the end of the Holy Era, Tasuma was the Kingdom of Merfolk or an Race of Half Human and Half Marine beings with an exceptional mastery over water magic and the best for sea related matters on the lower end of the Sea Continent, Darvish was the Kingdom ruled majorly my Dwarfs and Blacksmiths as known as the kingdom of Steal producing top quality weaponry and armour for all beings and lastly Rupus the Kingdom of Magic and Magical beings having a mix of races elfs, dwarfs, humans, marfolk and even draconian or Half Dragon and Half Human [An Rare Race mostly only found in the Kingdom of Dragons] known for it's Magic and Magical research on magical animals, newly discovered phenomenas and hosting the largest amount of Mages, Witches and all who are obsessed with Magic and it's applications on the world. The kingdoms never had ever came to fight each other or help each other except if the situation is dire like a disease, an dangerous monster or a dungeon being discovered.

Raven was not interfering Arthur's life and watching time flow, he was starting to understand why the Gods preferred to watch his followers over helping them and was fascinated by how Arthur's story was upholding, but was prepared to help when the right time came. Traveling to Tius was no small matter, Arthur, Princess Athina and some of Raven's followers had to travel through several villages, small cities and some of the kingdoms under Emperor Duke's rule to reach their last stop before traveling the seas to Afrados, The Dukedom under Duke Nal Fel Torus and the City of Nalus the biggest port town in the whole of Aradon also known as the Sea's Wall as Duke Nal kept all the monsterus horrors of the Seas from attacking Aradon Empire and was at the lowest end of the Empire. The Duke himself came to greet the Princess and after resting they proceed to travel to Afrados on an Royal Ship with the Duke's eldest son, Nalson Fel Torus and an seem were accompanied by a Merfolk guide. The travel could have gone smoothly, but a storm made the waters aggressive and the ship was surviving well because of being made by highly skilled individuals. The Storm could have been fine, but the ship had to go through the area known as the Satus Reef as the Princess was starting to feel sea sick on his first travel across seas. The Satus Reef was known for it's aggressive monsters and was known as a Ship Graveyard before the quality of ships were improved for harder traveling conditions.
