Part 1-7 The Rulers Of The World - 3

Part 1-7 The Rulers Of The World - 3

Feb 05, 2023

Part 1:
How Long Until The Crown Breaks?
7. As both Takashi and his men along Morlagon and his men made their way outside, they ran into one of the most beautiful sceneries Takashi could imagine.

For the first time, Takashi saw something as beautiful as gold covering the chairs, the fire pit, the gates that surround them, even viewing the water across from him, something shining so beautiful in the sky from the pink and blue colored sun that painted the river the same color.

Takashi looked at Morlagon as Morlagon turns back to him, saying "I feel your staring, you love the view huh?"

"Everything in Naminek is covered by bronze and gold, it's nice to see something different, something else that's beautiful."

Walking down the water flowing steps, Morlagon gestures to the chairs before him and says "Have your men stand back with mine, we can talk here while looking out to the river."

Takashi nods and starts speaking in the Naminek language for them to stand by, but away enough so that Takashi can conversate with Morlagon comfortably.

Sitting down together, Takashi on the left side, Morlagon on the right, Morlagon turns to Takashi as he stares out into the river.



"I don't really know how to put it all together, but...My life...Is still chaotic."

Takashi says this with all meaning as he rubs his hair, keep his view out on the sea.

Morlagon answers Takashi, "I get it, life gets very hard that way, but you have to keep going and let the Creator Yah guide you along your path, the path he made for you."

"The path he made for me doesn't seems to be cracking."

Looking over to the river with him, Morlagon continues speaking, "thinking that way will only make things worse, if you see something breaking, it's best to fix it in this kind of situation."

Takashi looks over to Morlagon this time, "the Emperess is not a problem in this situation...It's me again. If this sickness takes her out, I want to take control of the Naminek government, I would want to take her place and start a new lineage of the Naminek dynasty."

With his breathing slightly heavier, still staring out unto the sea, "I know it's wrong to think of her dying, it's not like it's her fault the Naminek government is the terrible way it is, but...She keeps it going, bringing no change, bringing no freedom to the people, bringing nothing anew of the country, just keeping up with the monstrous laws of every empire the Naminek people dealt with."

"And you're saying that you want to change that by usurping the throne?"

Looking right into Morlagon's eyes, Takashi simply says, "yes."

Sighing and looking around, Morlagon places his hand Takashi's thigh, looking into his eyes saying with a strict tone, "that idea of yours needs to be prayed about, you see, usurping a throne only causes more chaos. Rule should always come naturally."

"That's easy for you to say, Lesothian's have never had issues with rule and authority, meanwhile, everywhere else, we fight for our power, you here don't know what it feels like." 

Clearly feeling the emotion coming from Takashi as he starts to speak with his hands as he describes the state of Naminek to Morlagon.

"Your father, the Sovereign, knows the state of other nations governments" He narrows his eyes, "you don't know how chaotic Naminek is, and if you did, you'd understand why I, a warrior sent by the Creator, have a right to change the laws and take control."

"As Emperor?" Morlagon questions him, knowing well though all that Takashi means.

Takashi looks back to him, "Yes, it's what I have to do to bring peace and freedom to Naminek, I'm tired of my country being the way it is."

Morlagon nods his head while looking back to the river, "I understand what you are trying to do, but this Emperess, does she not have heirs, siblings, cousins, who would rightfully want to take control?"

"Most of her family is dead, just Naminek tradition to kill each other over the simplest of situations, but she has a daughter that's left, and she is only ten years old as of now."

"And what would your status be? To rule alone, or to marry her daugther once she is grown??"

"To marry Dawn." 

Saying this in the simplest of ways, Morlagon can't help but hear the truth and passion behind Takashi's words.

'He wants to marry Dawn?'

Morlagon kept thinking that before finally saying something, "that's...That's something you must take with her and the Nokinians fairly."

Takashi speaks through Morlagon's words, "I know what I have to do, I won't do it now, not until I'm sure of the status of the Emperesses health."

"You better not try and kill her, I hear in your voice, I see in your attitude, your actions, you are ready to take over Naminek."

Strictly saying this to him, Takashi starts smirking, his infamous smirk that Morlagon remembered so well, all the way back to their training days.

"I see why you are concerned, but don't worry Morlagon" Takashi looks directly in Morlagon's eyes, "I have my plan made out well, you'll see."

Morlagon can't help but stare back, quite shocked on hearing Takashi's tone change and his sudden confidence with his quite morbid plan, Morlagon thought. From what he remembered, Takashi has been dealt roughly with the Naminek rulership and government, and in fact due to him murdering the last Emperor that he miraculous got away with, since being a warrior helped and all.

Morlagon touches his shoulder and says to him, "just take this to the Creator, there is not much I can do for you on this decision of yours, but I will clarify this matter to you by saying that you need to hold back on whatever this plan is, let the Creator show you your path first, before you start running down any bridge you find in your life."

Takashi seeps his golden eyes into Morlagon's sapphire ones, he snickers, "I have already done that, that's why I came to you?"

As if getting slightly aggrivated, Takashi's knee starts moving from his leg vibrating as he starts intensely thinking on this conversation and most likely his 'plan'.

"If I marry Dawn, I can start a new legacy with her, I can't have any of the Dynasty now even be on the forefront, it's not going to work that way."

"If that's the case, what are you going to do about the Emperess's daughter?"

"I will have her exiled into the Doulisshi nation, since the Emperess's blood comes from there anyways."

"Really? Hm..." Morlagon turns towards the rivers once again, "as a Lesothian, this is all so strange for me to hear about fighting for power."

"You all know rules here, in Naminek, rules are whatever the ruling family want's it to be, and I'm going to simply change that with my stance as the warrior Twilight, which was granted to me by the Creator himself. I by no means should just stand as Captain of the Guards" His voice having more fiery in it, Morlagon continues to listen to Takashi pouring his heart out to him, "I deserve more...I deserve the power needed to change everything there."

Smiling now, looking back to Morlagon, he continues, "I will be the Emperor, one they thought they could execute, but instead, I'll become the one that's executing all the power."

"In your nation that is." Morlagon adds.

Takashi nods, "you will know what I do once I leave, your father will hear of it, all of you will hear of it. With the power I have gained from training, from being blessed by the Creator himself, that power is what Naminek needs to be able to change for the better."

His eyes getting wider as he speaks this truthfully to Morlagon, he leans over saying "I feel though that you don't think it's good for me to do this..."

"It's the chaos that comes with overthrowing a rulership, a dynasty, stopped. How will the people of Naminek see you? As a hero? Or a maker of chaos? Do you want us warriors to be remembered from causing chaos and corruption??"

"I'm overthrowing the corruption!" Takashi slightly yells, "the people need a change, they are suffering from the Emperesses rule, with her being sick, everybody is doing whatever, and that is the true chaos, chaos that I want to stop, not cause." 

His eyebrows lifted, his voice higher but meaningful, Morlagon just sighs once again and says "Naminek is not on the best of terms with Nokinia anymore, is it?"

Looking quite confused, but then understanding, Takashi replies, "no, we have become rival nations, wanting to take all the gold, all the vanity from each other, something stupid I think myself."

Serious as ever, Morlagon continues his words, "you are still traumatized, you want power to overdo what happened to you from the Emperor tricking your peasant family, sending an assassin to kill them, it's all hurt you, understandably, but Takashi, listen, this is not okay, overthrowing your ruler, trying to get as close to do so is too much."

"It's too much too right..." He snickers, "it's what needs to be done, I'm not going to keep mentioning change over and over again to you, you'll know if I fail this, and you'll know if I succeed."

"Well you wanted my word on this and this is the best I'll give you in this situation." With Morlagon saying this firmly, Takashi just sits back, with a thinking expression on his face, but also a slight smirk, that sudden slyness that Takashi has to him shows, and Morlagon can't help but hate that about him, you never know if it's good or bad coming from his point of view.

"Is that really all?" Morlagon questions.

"Yes...That is my plan."

With him getting up, he walks back over to his guards, saying something to them in the harsh Naminek language. Then turning back to Morlagon, he says "Are you coming back inside?"

Morlagon stares at Takashi, as if slightly disturbed by the conversation as he asks, "does Dawn know you are planning to marry her in the near future?"

He smirks again, "she has an idea about it" While crossing his buff arms.

Morlagon raises a brow, "just an idea?"

"I felt the connection when we talked, soon enough, we'll both be close again, close enough for me to ask her about it."

Saying this, Takashi gestures to his men to walk with him as he lifts a hand up to Morlagon. "I'm using the tolietroom, see you back inside?" He turns around to say after.

"Yes, I'm coming in now." Gesturing to his men, the both of them walk inside.

It wasn't until the morning after from when they all stayed the night in guest rooms at one of the palace's buildings, made specifically for guest to spend the night from long travels into the country, with having it's own workers watching over the buildings.

Gathering together at the gate of the Province, the warriors stand together once again as each of their servants give them room to communicate.

Morlagon stands before them all with his mother and father and his two wives as they greet them off.

But then, Anun points out, "Hey Morlagon, did you not mention to us about your children at all?" Saying this in a light tone, Morlagon smiles, "yes, but it was brief, right before we went to sleep, but I do have another child on the way from my second wife Logoet."

She steps up and introduces herself, "I'm pleased to meet you warriors."

Tera crosses her arms as Morlagon gestures to her saying, "this is my first wife, Tera, mother of Estenbenyahu."

"Hello warriors." She says with uprightness in her tone.

They all nod to them as Ella says "He's so adorable."

While talking with the child, Tera thanks them all as they back away afterward.

Then Takashi says "You didn't waste anytime starting anew."

And Morlagon simply replies, "that is just one of the meaning things we fought for, I wanted to take nothing for granted."

Putting his mask on, matching his men, Takashi says to them, "I must take my leave now, I told the Emperess I'll be back before noon, I don't want to keep my flyers waiting."

Turning to his men, speaking in the Naminek language, they make their way towards the open gate as everyone says goodbye to him.

"Be safe Takashi, keep peace everywhere you go." Marshogon says to him.

"Thank you, your majesty."

He bows.

"And Takashi..." Maldu steps right up to Takashi's face as she says, "don't do anything stupid you hear...I fear I sense anger and pain in you again, don't let it overcome you" She grabs his face like you would do to a child, "okay?"

He gives her a reassuring look, but Morlagon already felt that Takashi already made his choice on what he wants to do."

Maldu backs up and bows her head as Takashi turns to them all saying, "we'll all meet again soon" Looking everyone saying this, he fixes his eyes on Dawn last as she returns the look to him, with even Morlagon noticing this.

Then Takashi returns to his men and makes his leave out of the Province to leave Lesothia."

Once he leaves, everyone starts saying their goodbyes, with their goodbye words being:

"Until we meet again." From Anun.

"Goodbye everyone." From Dae-Mi.

"See you all later." From Noo-un.

"Bye everybody." From Ella-Sophia.

"Keep sending kisses for me everyone." From Newen.

"Until next time." From Mashina.

"Stay safe." From Dusk.

And from Dawn, she says "We will be back to talk soon." With bringing a smile on her face. 

But right before she leaves, Morlagon her a note, whispering "Make sure you read this once you are alone."


Dawn looks at the note and nods before getting into the carriage.

........

It was when Dawn make it back to her home, to her castle, when she read the note before going to sleep. The note read:

"Takashi is planning to do something big for you, but it will not be from a peaceful point of view like it seems. After all, your decision is yours to make, it is not my right to judge you on this personally, but I do fear that you will be amongest chaos once his choice is decided. Please think wisely on what you feel about him, Takashi hasn't changed as much as we thought he did."

From Fellow Warrior, 
Prince Morlagon of the Seven Pronvinces of Lesothia.

Reading this letter, Dawn couldn't help but look shocked, then calming herself, she lays her head down to sleep, realizing that Takashi has met everything he said about truly missing her.

"He wants to marry me..." She softly whispers.

I can understand the feeling of being bored of something that you see every day no matter how beautiful it is.
I agree that usurping a throne is bound to cause more problems than it would solve.
That sounds like good advice, to wait a bit more to try and see the path more clearly before doing something as drastic as usurping the throne.
It feels like Takashi might be a bit too drunk on power and that usually doesn't bring anything good.
