Overhaul Knight Book 1

Prologue: Jethua Kingdom

Prologue: Jethua Kingdom

This is the peaceful Continent of Uzuan, luxurious greenery, fruits and materials alike. It can be said that this is the most serene place in the entire world. However nothing ever lasts in this world, and so does the concept of an organization, which is what the Jethua Kingdom, a Kingdom within the Uzuan Continent was struggling to find.

"Your majesty, we have to do something!"

Within the Throne Room were two different people, one was the King; Rakos Domini the Third. He held many jewelleries from his hands to his neck to his head filled with gold, ruby, sapphire alike. He held a calm and unbothered face. Shouting at him at the opposite was a woman with neatly tied back brown hair, glasses and a business suit with multiple files on her hand.

The King sighing waved his hands, "Enough rambling Irene, is it that important to have an established organization? The King's Guards are doing fine..."

Irene Varman, Jethua Kingdom's Head of Association, handles the business side that helps the people of Jethua be in safety.

"With all due respect your majesty, the King's Guard can only operate within Thelon City, OUR capital city! The surrounding cities, villages and towns are at risk of any criminal threats. Sure they have banded together as a community but if this goes on... This nation will be nothing but unrest and chaos."

"You speak as if this hasn't been a problem for years, Irene, you worry too much."

"I admit this problem arose when your father was king, but it's gotten worse, like I said, you majesty, we have to do something."

"Hmm, but I wonder, in Jethua's past, we have tried with knights, soldiers, paladins, mercenaries and even those Fixers from the West, however they all crumble and fall apart, there is nothing we can do now..."

Irene herself also knew of this but she didn't give up as she frantically flipped around her files then pulled out a piece of paper walking over and showing it to the King,

"That is why... I've decided to reach out for help. Looking at our history, I have realized the problem with these is the roots of their history. They crumble because we establish them too early or too late, meaning we need a firm foundation to continue."

"And?"

"I have found one, the Uclary Kingdom of the Audris Continent."

"From the west eh..."

"Yes, from what we can gather they have a large historical impact on the very concept of Knights, it is to say, the First Queen of the Uclary Kingdom was a Knight Warrior, as such the culture of Knights in the Uclary Kingdom... Has never faltered."

"I... see..."

"I reached out to the kingdom, and we came to an agreement... We shall send one of our kingdom's finest Guard alongside one assistant to venture to the Uclary Kingdom as an exchange Knight, learn of their culture for a year then return to our kingdom and reforge this nation."

The King pondered for a moment, "Why didn't you ask the Voshia Kingdom and the Vuprad Kingdom? They are our allied nations within the same Continent, travelling to a whole new continent seems like much work."

"I assure you, the Uclary Kingdom is the finest Knight central nation in the entire world, we need to get information from the finest place, if we want to succeed ..."

The King sighed, "Alright, alright, since you've already made contact I suppose I cannot stop you... So, who are we sending?"

Irene rummages through a bunch of profiling papers of various King's Guards, one paper flutters down but Irene ignores it and shows another paper, the man in the photo was a man with light brown skin, brown hair and had a large bright smile on his face.

"Jael Summers, our strongest King's Guard."

"Ohh! I see, Jael does have the potential to become someone truly incredible!"

"We will also send Catherine Hawthorne as his assistant."

"Another strong King's Guard, that is a wondrous idea Irene... When is the date?"

"They will need to arrive in the Uclary Kingdom at the start of January!"

The King smiled exotically, he wasn't really excited on the King's Guard travelling to the Uclary Kingdom, but more so the idea that if these two can become the strongest in Uclary as they are the strongest in Jethua, the Jethua Kingdom's name would go down in history.

The paper that Irene had accidentally dropped slowly fluttered down to the ground, forgotten of its existence, laid one single name, a name erased from the kingdom, and the King's Guards records.
