1- PRINCE OF PROVENIR

Sumptuous celebrations all over , streets filled with joyous people , lanterns lit , exotic flowers hung , elegant decoratives covered the magnificent city of PROVENIR . It was a day whole city waited on their heels for . " it's a boy.." screamed the people as they continued their celebrations.

The citizens have been waiting a long time for a heir . A day of festivity it was , cultures bloomed with their fanciest ways of celebrations whole crowd whole lot of people were brought to be one on this day . The prince it was .

Provenir was one of the 11 astounding kingdoms of the world , beautiful and prosperous it was with poverty lesser than than quarter of it's population . A hill top white palace nourished with eye sinking beauty and marvellously carved curves , walls and pavements . The palace embraced the green lands around the scape , a beautiful river with water reflecting the domes made its way behind and beneath the hill which held the palace . The land was known for the richness of crops that could grow .

But this majestic place was known better for the warriors it made , for the soldiers it bred , for the army it helmed . Combat specialists , archers that never missed , swordsmen that the world feared , it had it all . It was a place the rest of world feared to wage a war upon , such were the men holding the gates strong and still .

The ceremony was brought to an end , people went home with happy faces , gates were closed , and the baby was named AEON . Aeon , the son of Orion the great . Orion believed Aeon was meant for great things , he believed that he could maintain the peace and integrity of the kingdom because to him , his kingdom was all that mattered.

People had burried the beliefs of God and had stopped praying and wishing . Years passed by Aeon as a kid had a gift of learning anything or any skill within a matter of time , his father was more than just proud of the kid , and then he knew that Aeon would make a great warrior . Aeon was a curious kid , he often crossed the palace gates and ran all over the city , the trade centre , the market , the fisheries , all the place knew and admired the kid . He made quite a few friends as years passed by .

He had a few special friends in the city , Laurus ,the armourer , Paris the rich yet humble merchant , Karen the lady who took care of all the orphans in the city and hence was his most favourite person on the other side of gates. Everytime he dropped in , she would give him fruits all the time and cared like he was one of her's , Karen was tall , mid aged woman with dark complexion , her brown eyes always have the sparkle that one could consider as a hope and hold on for protection , such was her care and love to people and more so to the kids .

One fine day , Aeon , while making his usual run through the town and the crowds runs into an old man whose attire seemed rather a bit shabby , uncleaned beard , grey hair with the hood covering the top of his head , face with wrinkles and dirt all over . "I am sorry mister" Aeon says after bumping into the old man , "don't be sorry , do something useful rather than being a prick and growing up to be the same useless bag of trash your father is " yelled the man . People rushed to the spot , Laurus who was nearby came to Aeon and spoke " hey hey he's just a kid let him be " while bringing Aeon behind him , meanwhile the kid just kept looking at the dirty old man . "Hey kid , don't be upset about the bump , he's just a beggar and a fool , let it go " Laurus told Aeon after the scene had stopped . "Why did he say that about my father ?" asked Aeon for which Laurus just replied "your father is a great king , whole city knows that " . The kid wasn't happy , he needed to know , after all curiosity is child's play . So he decides to pay the beggar a visit .

The next day , he walks off the gate asusual , runs along the crowd and stops near the fish store as he sees the beggar argue over the pricing of shrimps with the fisherman . " good gracious I could buy a whole lot at that price , just give me two shrimps and I'll b off " he kept yelling .Aeon nears the shop and sees the fisherman n signals to give beggar the shrimps without taking any money , to which he nods happily and gives the old guy the shrimps .

The beggar goes to a nearby elevated wooden platform at the end of the market region , the path further led to few of the last huts before fading into void path which ended with the humongous wall and the majestic gates that ended the kingdom. Facing the shrunken sun , he takes a seat to have his meal .Aeon follows him and stands behind him waiting for him to finish the food . " Thankyou for this " tells the beggar with a grin on his face , Aeon stands confused , "I know you got me this food , thank you and don't expect an apology for yesterday " he tells . Excited Aeon walks forward with a smile and says " no no I don't need all that , I just wanted to know the reason behind your talks ".

The beggar keeps down the food , looks at the kid and keeps one hand on his head and tells " your father is a good king , but son , this isn't the world , people here have seen Nothin but happiness , but I have seen sorrow , pain , torture , lust , greed , death ,ashes , not here , but outside the gates", looking at the gates with a grin he continued ," faar off from here , it's dark ,a very dark world .Stay in the nest and you can be a great king , cure the world then the world will worship you and they will finally see a god , AGAIN " . Aeon was dumbstruck and all he asked was , "what's a god ". Beggar smiled , so did Aeon as both of them sat staring at the sun shrinking behind the wall .
