The Host was not permitted to attend the major event. That was the conversation between the leaders.

Emperor of Azitium: Lets get to the point. There are too many small villages spurring up. I don’t like that they are trying to break up bigger cities. They follow little standards thus providing an increase in crime. I wanted us to draw up a map and divide it in to sections. To establish which Kingdom/ Empire will be in charge of what section. This will give us an idea how far apart each kingdom/ empire is. Roughly one year ago there were only 10 big cities and now there are many big villages/ cities.

Emperor of Azitium: Let’s examine this map I had my cartographers put together. It’s not complete and marks the only cities we know of. Emperor Salim we are not aware where you’re Trinpik Empire is or where Empresses Vionia’s Empire of Tanos is.

Vionia: I have no intent to disclose where my Kingdom is located.

Salim: I too am not ready to reveal that. Since I really don’t know your to intentions Emperor.

Salim: To be frank. I would like to as you the Emperor of Azitium why your troops were destroying a town on the boarders of your country? I saw it myself. Since I was also the one to stop them form killing the civilians.

Emperor of Azitium: Those soldiers will be punished to the full extant.

Salim: Where were they coming from?

Emperor of Azitium: There is an Exiled prince from this Empire. Since he was plotting to assassinate me we dispatched soldiers to take care of the problem from the root.

Salim: How do you know he was after you?

Emperor of Azitium: The assassins guild brought the agreement that was signed by the exiled prince. I didn’t believe them at first however they had a convincing story. So I paid them for the information.

Salim: I see. So the assassin’s guild sold you false information for the reward money.

Emperor of Azitium: How dare you talk bad about my friend?

Salim: Or perhaps you are just blaming so called the assassins guild to get away with sending the army. You know I don’t have the right to judge you. I don’t blame you either. However if I ever see another village destroyed by your army. I won’t hesitate to make war with you.

Vin: Everyone please take a moment of silence and listen to me. Truth is told no one here is going to trust anyone else here. So lets set that aside. We have gathered here perhaps of a different reason the Emperor hasn’t told us about just yet.

Salim: Very well, I withdraw my accusations. Please proceed Emperor.

Emperor of Azitium: The main thing is we are trying to solve the current rising cities within the vicinity of Towers Influence even beyond the reach or towers. I am trying a new method rather then what my ancestors did. That was to conquer.

Zarr: Do you really think we would hand over our kingdoms or empires just because you ask?

Alex: I will be willing to become part of Azitium for a hefty price.

Emperor of Azitium: I am able to give hundreds of thousands of gold. There is one small detail. My first priority of business would be to seize the new built Tower. It is said that the exiled prince built north of Azitium.

Alex: My price to join your Empire and your crusade is 1,000,000 gold.

Emperor of Azitium: Done!

Salim: May interrupt your little engagement. I would like you to know the Tallest Tower belongs to my Kingdom. I know of the exiled Prince as well. I let their village join my Empire, so in return for them joining my Empire I built them a small tower.

Emperor of Azitium: Whaaaaat? GUARDS!! GUARDS!! SIEZE EMPEROR SALIM.

As the elite guards ran in they grabbed me and held me there.

Vin: Wait!!! Now I have seen your true intentions.

Emperor of Azitium: Guards don’t let him go. We still have questions for him.

Emperor of Fen: Salim I would like to see what you have to say.

Salim: Everyone before they take me away. Now is the only time I will give you the choice to choose a side. What will you choose?

Alex: I am already part of Azitium. So yep I go with them.

King of Katik: Azitium

King of Tuni: Azitium

Zarr: I wish to stay neutral but as you heard the other way is force. Might as well get some money. Azitium

Emporer of Zital: Through out the ages we were and always will be neutral.

Emperor of Betok: Neutral

King of Alem: I will join Betok.

King of Tett: Then I will join Ginba.

King of Zif: I too with Ginba.

Emperor of Ginba: Neutral

King of Drikas: I with Fen.

King of Kesuni: I with Zenith

King of Pilanok: I will remain neutral.

Emperor Vin: I with Salim:

Empress Vionia: I too with Salim:

Salim: May I ask why you are arresting me Emperor of Azitium?

Emperor of Azitium: You saved me the trouble of finding you. Can’t you see this was my plan all along?

Salim: Yes I did know. Thus is what I proclaim. Since you allowed your self as to disrespect me in front of the other leaders. My empire is now in war with yours.

Emperor of Azitium: Ha ha ha ha. Ill have your empire pay ransom for you before I destroy it, although you’re actually going to die here. GIVE ME A SWORD! I will take his life here and now.

Vionia: Ignorant Emperor. If I were you I would be pleading for forgiveness right about now.

Emperor of Azitium: Do you really think my tower that listens to me wont be able to take care of him?

Vionia: I know it won’t be able to do anything to him. Vin suggest you just watch and don’t do anything hassle worth.

Elite Guard: Here is your sword.

Emperor of Azitium: Do you have any last words?

Salim: Get on with it the suspense is killing me.

Emperor of Azitium: Diiiieeeeeee

The sword was just an inch near his neck.

Salim: Time Stop.

Everyone has stopped.

Vin couldn’t sit still he was about one foot away trying to stop the emperor.

I turned Vin around since his charge was so intense that there was no way to stop him other then redirect him once the time was release.

Salim: Vin and Vionia may enter this field.

Vin’s sword impaled in to the wall, Vionia was now laughing at Vin. As Vin turned around he only saw Vionia moving and Salim.

Vin: Why are they all frozen?

Salim: Let me reintroduce my self. My name is Salim I am building an Empire of Trinpik. Currently we have only one village. The village that now has the tallest Wizards Tower. Emperor is my secondary title my primary one is Time Lord.

Vin: Are you an NPC? How did you get such a title?

Salim: No I am not an NPC. How I got this title is a secret.

Vin: Oh. So it’s a Wizards Tower. I know there are a few but the other ones are like Ranger Towers since they have wind affinities.

Salim: Don’t compare those towers with Trinpik Wizards Tower. It has 4 affinities. So I am sure that it will be no easy task for any empire of alliance to merely destroy it.

Vin: It is still possible as long as they protect their armies with the elemental affinity wizards.

Salim: Yes but they will still have to go through me.

Vin: So how long does this space last?

Salim: Until I release it. Now your turn, tells us about you?

Vin: We are in process of building 4 towers however stuck at 60 meters. We are a player town. Will not bow down before any king or emperor. I received the title after I made a group of the newly arrived adventurers. We improved the town so much that the elder asked me to become a king. Not long after more people started to find refuge within the wall we built. Since Players didn’t completely die they felt obligated to protect the villagers. Thus the villagers and elder recognized me as an Emperor due to my influence with players. We are currently looking for guardian in order to get permission to continue building the towers. 4 towers = 4 affinities that will protect the village. The elder said that the small onyx stones we have will be weak and only support a limited range with only one affinity each. That’s why we built 4 towers.

Salim: Well now that introductions are over. I was thinking that I would not humiliate the emperor the same way I humiliated Zarr. However I believe 5,000,000 gold for each one of us will suffice.

Vin: Do you know how heavy that is? Even I with 200 points in STR will not lift 1/5 of that.

Salim: Na I am not planning to carry it. Vionia shall we proceed?

Salim: Tio, Tios Cub, Frick’s, Ruben authorized. TIO AND FRICK’S COME HERE!

Vin was standing watching what was happening. As the four walked in they knew exactly what was happening other then the Cub and Ruben.

Tio: Have I told you my cub’s name? It’s Zet.

Salim: Anyone know where the vault is?

Tio: I believe I know where it is. There was one place that was extremely guarded during this time. It must be there.

Salim: Vionia will you please bring the carriage inside all the way to the vault will move everyone out of the way for you in the mean time.

Vionia: Sure thing.

Vin: How is she going to bring the carriage inside? Doesn’t this place have like a lot of steps?

Salim: She can carry it here or perhaps even sit in it and fly it here.

Vin: Fly?

Salim: Well we haven’t tried anything like that. However I am sure its possible. Well then lets get going.

We located the vault quite quickly. Then moved the guards out of the way and even locked some in rooms. We took the Emperor of Azitium and placed him in his room. Swinging his sword towards his bed. After hours of smashing the doors we found it hopeless to strike at them even with all of our combined strength. So we all went around the castle to see if we could find something that would be strong enough to open the doors. In one of the castle rooms we found a training rooms. Heavy dumbbells all around the room and one of them caught my eye. It looked like the smallest of them all yet I could not lift it up. I then realized that they were gravity stones. That would only listen to the one who infused them, since I was sure no one else had the gravity affinity in this generation. The way they laid near the corner of the room. Have long been forgotten even had dust on them. It was two circles connected with what looked like a titanium pole. Since the owner was probably long dead and I had a gravity affinity maybe they would react with my affinity. After first trying to pick them up I was unable to move it.

Salim: Negative ½ gravity.

That’s when they began to float up. I then quickly adjusted them to the appropriate weight so they don’t fly off in to space. I brought them to the door put it between the window bars that barely had space. These little stones were only about 5 cm each. So after putting one small ballpoint on one side and then the other on the other side.

Salim: X10 gravity

The door stood.

Salim: X40 gravity

The door squeaked.

Salim: X100 gravity

The door was smashed in to the ground. I then immediately said: X1 gravity and lifted it and put it in to my pocket. Perhaps I can do something with this.

The invincible door that was smashed in to the ground looked week. Since I remembered how though it was I also decided to take it with me.

Not long after everyone ran up saying what happened and how I opened it. Even Vionia with the carriage came in carrying it with one hand.

Salim: Where were you all this time?

Vionia: Sightseeing around the castle while flying on the carriage.

Vin: Whattt? How are you holding the entire carriage with one arm?

Vionia: Oh this I’m holding it so it doesn’t fly away. It has what called gravity stones. We don’t know how much it can manipulate but it really handy.

Vin: I can see that.

Salim: lets load the entire carriage with the treasure that should be enough as an apology from the Emperor who tried to kill me. Ill even not hold a grudge against him.

Roughly 15,000,000 gold fitted in to the carriage, an unknown metal door. One large chest that we had no Idea what was inside but it was the best crafted in the room. Finally we took a couple sets of amazing clothes. A letter addressed to the youngest prince. Since I knew Fin I knew he would want to read it.

To bad we couldn’t take more. With the current wealth it was good enough for us. The vault was still 7/8 full. We just said we could come back and get some more whenever we really needed it. So let them guard it for us in the mean time.

That’s how we left. I did not plan on releasing the Time until we caught up with the villagers that headed towards Trinpik.

Salim: Vin did you come here by your self?

Vin: Yes. Since my respawn point is still in my village I knew if I died, I at least would not have to walk all the way back.

Vionia: Smart thinking just like a player.
