Chapter 1: I will become emperor... oops I died

It all started when a boy was born, the one who was "emperor" for 6 days, Edward Habsburg, 'the founder'.

"A Study on the Birth of the Nation" - Frederick Einstein.

-------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------

'Everything is calm' is the thought of a man who intends to die, because of the giant meteor that is colliding with the earth.

When I opened my eyes all I saw was a bunch of blurry images, 'I didn't die' was what I thought, but when I tried to speak all that came out was a bunch of baby babble.

Hello, my name is now Edward and it seems that I have been reincarnated in Europe (he made this statement after seeing his father's hair color, and his green eyes) which would be good news if it weren't for the fact that I'm not in contemporaneity and yes in the bronze age

I'm the son of the village chief, his name doesn't matter because I can't speak their language, but it's not my fault how I should learn a Bronze Age language.

When I only speak a language thousands of years old after descending from Latin, then I'm doing the obvious, I'm teaching them (the children he comes into contact with and some adults) the language of the future (literally) Portuguese.

I'm already selling initial results of my linguistic conversion, it seems that some children can already speak some words like tree, stone, day, sky...

Hello, how are you, I have been very happy since I was 7 years old, my father was training me to take on the role of a village leader, he was teaching me what he had learned as a village leader since the war and 'politics'

My language conversion plan seems to be working, I finally managed to communicate with them... but only a few sentences, during this time I got a wife and had to 'build' our house, I had my first child and I am very happy that my wife and my son is fine.

My second plan is also going well, finally they started using iron tools after they discovered an iron mine relatively close to a river which is a little far from our village, I was thinking of moving our village closer to the river .

(5 years later)

The village relocation process was successful, but in the second year, two "wars" occurred against nearby tribes after those tribes were defeated.

I chose to incorporate these tribes into ours in the form of 'cities' and our village became the center of 'trade' between our village and these two cities thanks to the production of iron tools and 'advanced culture' (in fact, Edward conceived that the 'cities' send people to the village so that they can learn the village's language and influence the next generations to assimilate into the future Kingdom).

During the move thanks to Rio and the nearby forests, we started making boats and thanks to them we were able to communicate with the outside world.

Thanks to this communication we were able to expand our area of influence and territory along the river, the expansion is in the northeast direction because tribes who believe in the same religion as ours come from Scandinavia.

The name of our new 'city' is Vienna. I chose this name after a lot of thought (in fact he just likes that name, and I also wanted a city with a German name to honor him, since he is now German).

(10 years later)

I have finally reached the point of establishing a kingdom after so long that I can be called a king and will not proclaim myself emperor.

It feels like my dream is finally coming true, it's like they say never give up on your dreams.

Over time I am creating the basic administrative structures, taxes, roads and minting bronze coins.

(2 years later)

Every day that passes I feel more tired since I got this flu, but today (September 3rd he doesn't know the exact data because he doesn't know how to keep a work calendar, he only knows that it's summer now) I'm officially establishing my kingdom.

There was a day-long celebration and finally, 5 days later, Edward died of the flu.

Fortunately, Edward's son had a succession of imports because what a this kingdom is only the military strength of Vienna, today the capital of the Kingdom and religion, but in the future thanks to linguistic unification, commercial exchanges and direct control that the capital has over the kingdom (for now) the kingdom will change from a tribal "alliance" to a royal kingdom.

(300 years later)

Open your eyes again and see everything blurry. It feels like I didn't die and I'm a baby again...

Chapter 2: Elizabeth's diary (1)

I didn't believe it when my husband said that it was possible to create paper with tree bark, when he explained to me what paper was used for I didn't believe it.

But now that I'm used to it and learning to write with him, using an invention of his called the alphabet and alphabet pencil, he said that if I wrote a diary it would be good for me to learn to use the alphabet.

Honestly Edward has always been weird, I don't think the right word is genius,('I think he created that word to describe himself').

Anyway, since the time we were a child, Edward was already different, I always noticed since then that he was trying to teach us words in the language he invented,('I missed that it was just a joke, but he was the boss's son, I thought it was a good idea try to imitate him'), when I first managed to say tree I could have sworn I he appeared in a way that looked brighter than the sun, I don't know why but my face at that time was hot, according to Edward it was red.

One day Edward said to me I remember well that day nine days after Edward's mother died, when I went to his house on the day of his mother's death I could hear him crying, then later that day when I I was talking to him, he said he didn't want his mother to die of the flu he wanted her to live until old age, after he said that I wanted to know how old age was, he said that at least he had lived more than 60 summers (he said year on that day) but I laughed at him saying that it was impossible for someone to survive more than 60 summers (years), at that time I didn't understand but now I think that either he really wanted her to still be with him.

On the ninth day after his mother died he came to me and what he said I will remember forever, he said:

Elizabeth, my mother can't live 60 summers(years), she went up to Valhalla living only half that, you are me Elizabeth, we probably won't make it through that either but if we both make the decision to share our lives if we each live the only half of 60 summers (years) so in all we would have lived 60 summers as we will share the same destiny and life before the gods, so the question I ask you is Elizabeth are you willing to share your life, destiny and future with me" .

Elizabeth: "..."

At that time I was surprised, but later I calmly said: "yes".

(As it really was: "YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!", that day many birds flew from everyone because of a thunderous cry of happiness, and never more came back, actually they came back but she didn't see it, so she was embarrassed to write it in her diary, because she thinks it made the birds disappear).


Chapter 3: Elizabeth's diary (2)

Dear diary, I don't know why but Edward said to start my diary like this.

When Edward and I had our first child he was more worried than I was, he keeps trying to stuff me with food and apples, every day he was looking at everything I did, honestly I was feeling a little anxious about all this. That pressure, but also I was very happy with his concern, that day I bragged to my friend Marie all day about how much my Edward cared about me.

When our son was born Edward said we should name him Frederick Von Habsburg, I don't understand why he gave him three names.

(Later in our life I asked him why he said it was because Von meant: "coming from", and Habsburg means: "Emperor of all dragons", and Von Habsburg means: "coming from the house of the Emperor of dragons")

on our 'wedding' day. (About 45 days after she said YES).

he said: "Elizabeth we are getting married that means that, like the stories I told about the Dragons that you adore, they and I, we can only have one partner and that they will make an agreement to share their whole life with their partner, the dragon then you'll lose your eternal life just to be able to live with your partner eternally,(this may seem paradoxical but it's not, it's like our our world's marriage, but without the till death do us part part, which i'm indicating is that even after death they will still be one), and so from now on you are I invite you to have one more name that we will share.

He told me he would only say our names after the wedding, and wedding night, 'I didn't know what it was but at the time I expected it and when the day came it was magical'.

Then two days later he announced our new names in the central square:

"My people, I come to announce a new invention, I call it a surname, and from now on my wife and I will have the same surname, the surname is superwritten over the family surname, for example when someone's daughter marries a independent partner of the old surname, and each family can only have one surname, and as many middle names as you like, henceforth my wife and I will be known respectively as: Edward Habsburg and Elizabeth Habsburg"

Those three days were one of the happiest of my, Our lives.

But unfortunately the happiness didn't last long after I realized (actually it was Edward who noticed) and told my husband he was shocked (pretending) and is very happy when he went to tell his father he said: "son now you is a real man and is ready to take over our tribe after I'm gone", Edward:"That old man you'll still come a long way so I can assume when I've lived 18 summers, (she's assuming he said summers instead of years, because Edward failed miserably to explain the concept of Years without a precious calendar, he has a calendar but he doesn't know what day it is currently), and you will see me taking our tribe to places you never imagined" that's what Edward said smiling beautifully (from her point of view), then his father said: "you know sometimes I wonder how your mother is there in valhalla", that was their last conversation the next morning when Edward went to at his house he was sleeping and never woke up.

All I saw was when I went 3 hours later because Edward was taking so long to come back then I found him looking perplexed at his father, partner that his eyes had lost his light and life, so I asked: "Edward why didn't you wake up your father?", it looked like his eyes had regained some light.

You know I'm not an idiot I had already realized that something wasn't wrong when Edward took 3 hours to come back, so when I saw him I realized that I had to act like an idiot to distract him so he could accept his loss easier, like the stories Edward tells me...
