A Clerk’s Personal Record – Codex
King Lionheart Maynic is the new leader of the Ichi Tribe. This young king once found some ancient records in the desert and was obsessed with retrieving this land’s brightness. He believed that the Ancient Ichi had a way to build an artificial sun written in the records. He tried to dig out more things from the desert and prove their ancestors really did put the artificial sun in the sky, giving the Ancient Ichi a period of radiant, sumptuous, seemingly endless daytime.
…People born in the Eternal Night found it hard to believe the new king’s hollow dream, but when the young king sunk himself into the challenge of being the most contributive king of all kings, the era began.
…
A massive amount of gold was transported to the central continent in exchange for their emperor’s promised “Ember Machine”. Everything was invested into the construction of Desert Lamp to ensure the land’s future. Everyone was thrilled for the light and had heard the saying, “King Lionheart’s name will never perish in the desert. His name will be with you for life.”
…
King Lionheart’s ambition started to grow, and the brightness that Desert Lamp brought wasn’t enough for him. “The trifling light is nothing if you can get the sun.” The mysterious woman said to him. She claimed to be the Child of Prophecy in the legend, telling King Lionheart that the calamity would come soon to convince him that she could bring the sun back.
King Lionheart said that mortals never had the strength to reject the sun, and everything mentioned in the prophecy came true long ago. Then he recruited soldiers frequently, sealed the Ichi Tribe off, tore The Golden Treaty, and dismantled the Desert Lamp… to stop the internal conflicts and external dangers mentioned in the prophecy from happening– but they came true, one by one. As a humble historiographer, I can’t help but think– Would the prophecy still come true if no mouthpieces had sown the tales?
… The king’s people who once hailed for him were leaving him. The name Mad King gradually replaced the name King Lionheart. He sometimes froze looking into a mirror, like he could see something in it, something that he had forgotten. He crashed the mirror on the day the princess left.
