"Because Titus Mede was killed. Through a series of bloody ascensions, a woman called Luciana came to the throne, and she began to implement good governance. With her came the various important people, who were her friends" said Hayden, beginning his tale."

"My grandmother Erys was a visionary before her time, and she knew the principles on which to found a nation. She had begun as nothing more than a simple bandit, almost. My grandfather was a hired assassin, on the other hand. Somehow, the two of them met, and fought many battles aside a force known as the lost legion."

"My other set of Grandparents. Ventus and Lissa, both pillars of our country. They were only children that time, but they were spurred to take charge and improve themselves. These four, along with many heroes who I do not even remember, aided Luciana to take the throne for herself. As Empress, Luciana made many sweeping reforms, and changed many things."

"My grandfather, Raphael, the Emperor, he set up the proto  Royal Guard to protect Luciana along with my grandmother, the Empress. At that time, along with Ventus, Lissa, the lost Legionnaire commander Fenrir and others, they fought darkness, where Fenrir was corrupted. Fenrir became Thanatos, and set about to unmake everything Luciana stood for."

"We were a fortunate people, though. Thanatos bided his time, and sometimes the lighter side of his personality helped the Empire progress. In time, Ventus and Lissa would have a daughter, Celia. And my father was also born. Fenrir had twin children borne by his original wife, Lythe and Colin. Along with their parents, they challenged the darkness once more. An unknown man sacrificed himself, when Fenrir summoned celestials to do his bidding to unmake us."

"My relative Samuel Fontaine was a smart guy. And we very fortunately engaged the help of a genius known as Victoria. Victoria had many ideas, and from them was born new technology that enabled us to push the boundaries of combat. Also, my immediate family, all were so powerful. They crushed the Alfieri dominion."

Hayden looked at the ground and frowned "yet, partially, it was because those who stole the fertility of the elves also crushed many of them to death. We had superior forces and technology, against a weakened, confused enemy. How do we lose?"
