The time is imminent.

moment by moment and the hour of the end is approaching.

The end is of life.

Die.

The curtain of life descends, and it all ends.

Everything can disappear and lose with water bubbles.

That's all Halwar Ray-Lucion thought about in the darkness that never cleared up.

Darkness. Dim darkness. The dark clouds covering his vision had narrowed his horizons, whether it was from time to time, night or day. When I realized that time was running out, things seemed to be getting serious. I couldn't even stand up, I couldn't sleep or wake up, I couldn't get away from the top of my sleeping table. Sometimes I wasn't even sure if I was dreaming or awake.

All this time, maybe I've been dreaming.

Long dreams.

Dreams that are too long and you forget to wake up.

Dreams are not always sweet. I also have bad dreams. I have bitter, hard dreams. Not without sweet dreams, but sooner or later it will be replaced by nightmares. I feel like I've been having all those dreams.

Halwar sees blur and darkness. Starry skies stretch across the darkness narrowing your vision. Halwar's bedside had a canopy, and the starry sky floated inside the canopy. Countless stars in the dark night.

Once upon a time, there was a hero magnificent as a beautiful star on the continent.

Hundreds of years ago. It was when a united nation crumbled like a dream overnight, when numerous nations erected and fought over territory. The ancestors of the Royal Lucion were one of such heroes and masterpieces. It brought together the regions that had been scattered by the Great Split and laid the foundations for a country called Lucion. You deserve to be called a hero. But what would you think if such a hero saw Lucion now?

Compared to Lución, we would not be comfortable with the status quo, which is just an emerging country, and which is as successful as Gandía's country. It would be lamentable, and you might not want to think that this is the country you have created the foundations for.

If Lucion sees the way wrong, the blame lies with Halwar.

Gandhia, it was Halwar on a young day who ran to the tri-national alliance with Mion. Both that and this was caused by the fact that, on his youth, he saw a single scale of heroes in the Sius Cloud. Ciuscloud Reus-Gandia had a light not found in Halwar Reus-Lucion. Being a dazzling and shining sun more than anyone else, he was influential enough not only to illuminate those around him, but also to make even that illuminated one a small sun. That is nothing short of heroic qualities.

The young Halwar was excited by the emergence of future heroes in neighbouring countries. And he ran off to set the stage for him to be active. No one asked me to. For the sake of the princes of other countries, it was not a shabbat of sanity, such as taking the initiative to do what was in the interests of other countries.

In fact, you must have been crazy.

Heroes have a strange power to enchant the people around them, and enchanted people seem to die in madness or only have to act in madness.

Halwar was the latter.

If I think back now, I can only wonder what I was back then,

Like a child floating in heat, he just even believed that Sius Cloud was a hero and was passionate about setting the stage for him to be active. Regardless, Sius Cloud was not just born with the style of a hero. He was actually an excellent person. He was powerful as a warrior, and competent as a combat commander. When he led Gandhia in the future, who also made it easy to lead small units and destroy large units, Halwar was convinced that he would fulfill the northward march, which was Gandhia's dream, and that was why Lucion thought and acted in full cooperation with Gandhia. If we do not enter into cooperative relations with Gandia, Lucion, our neighbour, will also be destroyed by Siuscloud. The certainty of heroism was what shook Halwar's heart in fear at times.

It was for this reason that Halwar became enthusiastic about his ideas. In the future, at dawn, when Siuscloud became King of Gandhia, he would surely jump onto the grand stage. At that time Lucion must not spare him any help. He believed that it was the activity of the Sius Cloud that would also lead to Lucion's leap forward.

In fact, Gandia's leap forward will have a positive impact on Lucion, but what it wasn't done by Siuscloud is only the extreme of hatred.

Cius Cloud sensed almost all of the humans he met. The people who came into contact with him had to be affected in some way or another. Some were as fascinated as Halwar, others as fierce as Zalwarn's then national lord Marcias-Vridia.

The intense personality of Yingjie named Siuscloud may have polarized the people in contact with him into allies and enemies.

Therefore, he is dead.

You can't be a hero.

He passed away while burning the heroic appearance into people's brains.

Halwar couldn't wait to shake his heart when he thought of Sius Cloud's carelessness. His carelessness is also Halwar's carelessness. The stage he set for a leap forward set the stage for his son Leongand to reign as the Lion King. Leongand is beginning to be praised for being the hero of his time and the lion king of Gandia. Nor do I have to admit it as one fact. In fact, what Leongand has accomplished is what makes him acknowledge his heroism.

Gandia's winning streak of battles, which begins with the recapture of the fortress of Balsar, was also the glorious history of Leongand. Logner, Zalwarn, Berel, and Kruselk. Who do you call a hero, without calling Leongando a hero, who showed the four nations under control in less than a year?

Halwar thinks.

"By the time she grows up, this country will be a little bit too."

Was Cius Cloud such a thing before Leongand came to mind? It should have been a conversation when Halwar visited Gandion to make the alliance between Lucion and Gandia stronger, not long before Halberg, son of Halwar and Prince of Lucion, was born.

Leongand was in the cradle.

"I don't mean small things."

'Then let's rephrase it. By the time she succeeds me, Gandhia will be many times bigger.'

He said, laughing furiously. A smile as ambitious as a lion attracted Halwar's heart only with it. Halwar even thought that the Sius Cloud was the vessel that unified the group of small nations and was going to dedicate his life for him.

But Sius Cloud's words never materialized.

Years later, he got sick, because he fell.

The mysterious illness came after he went to the capital of Zalwarn, the Dragon House, to dine with the national lord Marcias-Vridia, and Halwar was convinced that Marcias poisoned him. Marcias can't stand bad rumors. It was a full rumor that he was familiar with the technique known as foreign law and was ruling Zalwarn by the technique of wanting to take the person off his path. No, it's not a rumor story without roots or leaves.

Information can be called a lifeline to survive a small group of nations. Whatever country you are in, you can't live without constantly purchasing information about neighboring countries, and you don't deserve to live. The truth is that even though all the skirmishes around the border are repeated, we don't know when they're going to attack us with their main hips. It was only natural for countries belonging to the group of small continental States to pay constant attention to trends in neighbouring countries and to obtain fresh information.

Lucion also had his own intelligence apparatus and was constantly asking about trends in neighbouring countries.

Zalwarn sandwiched between two countries: Gandia, Logner, but for Lucion it has long been a virtual enemy. No, it's not just Lucion. For the neighbouring countries of Zalwarn, no country had to pay more attention to that trend than Zalwarn. Zalwarn is a country with a long history. In that long history it was a country called Zalwarn that repeatedly swallowed with aggression against other countries, and although it remained silent for a long time, no one knew when its giant dragon would wake up from sleep and strip its fangs. It is only natural for a country like Lucion to look out for Zalwarn's inner feelings, and it was only because he paid attention to Zalwarn that he was able to find out that Marcias-Vlidia's bad reputation was not just a rumor.

"Better not go"

Halwar therefore stopped going to Zalwarn in Leongand.

"It's a direct invitation from the lord of Zalwarn. You can't just say no."

"No matter how powerful Zalwarn is, there's no reason to follow his intentions."

'Nothing, I'm not following Zalwarn because he's a powerful country. Because it's horrible, it doesn't mean we act as we're told.'

Then why are you going?

The trap awaits is more obvious than watching the fire.

Marcias-Vlidia is a brilliant rapist. You'll come up with as many ways as you can to murder Sius Cloud. It doesn't matter whether or not you use a foreign method. The problem is that Marcias has feelings close to hatred for Sius Cloud.

'Soon we'll have to cross the wall. We actually need to see with this eye how high and how thick that wall is. If you don't know the real thing, you don't know the power you need.'

'You mean putting your life at risk for that?

"That's right."

He put his hand on Halwar's shoulder with a fierce grin.

'That's what I've been doing. It doesn't suit you sexually, like changing the way you do things. If I lost my life as a result, it's just that I didn't have any luck. "

Thus, Siuscloud left Gandhia with Leongando, who was still young.

That was Halwar's last look at him as a sioux cloud hero.
