In the coverage of noctural darkness, the birds sheltered their chicks to sleep, the stray dogs slept tight closing their eyelids while the predators and the raptors emerged from their lair clutching the prey against their talons. Borrowing the mask of this moonless night a figure pass through the narrow corridors of Dai Household stepping inside a room at the end.

[NOCTURAL- GLOOMY NIGHT]

[RAPTORS- CARNIVORE BIRDS]

[TALONS- BIG CLAWS]

Suyin returned to his bed-chamber in the witching hour of the night. He didn't immediately went off to his bed instead he walked near the wide window wrapped in an eclipse of gloominess, he stood there gazing far in the distance at the void of nothingness. His face manifested stoic bearing deceiving the tremor he felt in his heart at the moment. He gripped his left chest sliding down to the floor while leaning his back against the wall borrowing it's support.

[WITCHING HOUR- MIDNIGHT]

[STOIC- ALMOST WITHOUT EMOTION]

The Prince General's name kept replaying in his mind : repeatedly in a loop. After everything was said and done why has the prince kept the last thing belonging to late General Yin, holding on to it as if it was a precious keepsake. What was the meaning in the end?

An unerased longing seem to have re-awaken somewhere in the corner of his heart however currently being caught up in vines of confusions the matter slipped out his awareness.

Suyin curled up on the cold floor bringing his knees closer to his chest almost bearing an appearance of a vulnerable little cub abandoned in a cold and wet stormy night.The cool sensation from the floor penetrated his soft skin reaching deep into his bones as his consciousness slowly drifted deeper into an endless abyss.

The cold winter's first snowfall in the Kai Kingdom, brings with it a festival for royals and nobilities. While it was termed as a celebration,truth to be told, it was actually a competition disguised as a festival for royalty and nobles in order to compete their affulence and supremecy. Since the theme of the festival revolves around hunting wild animals in winter season it has been thoughtfully named as "Winter Hunt Thrill".

[AFFULENCE- WEALTH UNDER CONTROL]

At this festival, royal princes and young masters from different households come together to hunt down wild animals wandering in snow covered mountains and woods.The festival itself does not signify any underlying weight instead it was treated as a competitive platform hiding behind it's curtains, various dirty schemes, underhanded traps, silent murders and secret disposals. It was a crafty game of power where the weaks are trampled over while strongs are fawned and feared. The law of jungle efficiently applies in this regard.

[FAWN- CURY FAVOUR; SWEET-TALK]

"Winter-Hunt Thrill" was considered an essentiality for political bonding with officials, ministers and their likes while secretly calculating against high ranking sub-ordinates breaking down their rein and blocking their future advances by killing their still young seedlings. Here was also where the princes won over their supporters so that they could smoothen the road eventually leading towards the supreme throne of a dragon monarch.

To most of the wild animals, winter was the time for their hibernation. Thus hunting down a fair amount was difficult to begin with and to add in their amusement it has been regraded a norm holding the festival in barbarians territory. This was also the reason as to why a "Thrill" was tailed to it's name

"Winter Hunt".

Since long ago, barbarians were summed up as lawless and unruly tribe. Likewise Khasa tribe the barbarians were also evaluated as a mysterious tribe. The only difference was that the existence of barbarians has been proven a fact while the details about Khasa tribe were almost to non-existent. Rumours had that, the people from barbarian tribe are proficient in animal hypnotism. Their preferred kind being huge and bulky monstrous wolves.

This being said, the barbarians are also justified as unreasonable tribe.If unsatiated they would attack a nation and kill people with noone being able to scotch the night of the long knives←[AN IDIOM FOR MASSARCE]

[UNSATIATED- UNSATISFIED]

[SCOTCH-STOP]

Such events had occurred countless times after the vanishment of Khasa tribe.In the 30th royal regime a war was triggered in which barbarians took the lead as their foe. Howbeit, it turned out to be a one-sided genocide rather than a two-sided war. Defeated utterly the 30th monarch was impelled to sign a peace treaty drafted by barbarians. A treaty of three points.

[GENOCIDE- KILLING OF LARGE GROUP]

[IMPELLED- FORCED BY SITUATION]

The first point depicted that every year royals must provide them a tons of riches and treasures along with their daily bread and garments.

The second point depicted that a punishment shouldn't be bestowed upon a charged barbarian without consulting with their side.

And the third and last point directly drew a line dividing their land into two different territories with resourceful one being occupied by barbarians. A rule was also drafted that no one from Kai should cross into their land while same was not phrased for barbarians instead they could visit Kai as per their wish.

Although the treaty was unfair to Kai and a stinging slap to royals on their face they didn't have any better choice than to yield. As the saying goes ; Beggars can't be Choosers.

A defeated country has no say.

Nonetheless, many years later a slight adjustment was made in the third point and royals were permitted to hold their week long festival "Winter Hunt Thrill" in the barbarians territory. However, if a person was found in their land a second longer afterwards then they would be captured and be use as a sacrifice for their barbarian Goddess. The flesh of the sacrifice would then be devoured by barbarians as a blessed feast from their Goddess.

After the treaty was signed both sides retreated to their den until later in the future the barbarians incited another war but this time the outcome favoured Kai as the barbarians trembled under the terror of "Dragon Blade" wielded by Prince General of Kai Kingdom.

Well...it is for the future. Let's return back to the festival "Winter Hunt Thrill."

To the West, separating the two territories was an enchanting mountain colour of green and blue which was called "Foxy Fairy."

Eh?...If it is called a fairy then why an unnecessary foxy was added to it? Well it has a justifiable reason.

The small outward portion of the mountain were all green plains and blue streams while the vast and huge inner part, basically deep woods and forests were under barbarian's territory making it dangerously mesmerizing.Thus it was called "Foxy Fairy".
