Ancient Imperial Calendar Year 1803
Seliarnevre arranged a worthy funeral for Richard Kislavein, who lost his life while trying to protect his masters, with his own money. The funeral was attended by Seliarnevre, Ricardo, Richard's family, friends and the Kislavein warriors who had come to bid farewell to their fallen comrades. Richard's body was lying on a coffin placed on a huge black marble plinth. He was lying in heavy armor, his hands clasped on his sword across his chest, as was fitting for warriors of the dynasty. The funeral ceremony began when the commander-in-chief of the palace guards, Henryk Kislavein, stepped forward and gave the first speech.
"Richard Kislavein, loyal warrior of the Kislavein Dynasty, our Lord IV. Orsman's wife Seliarnevre and his son Ricardo's guard Rochard fulfilled his duty and protected his masters he lived with honor and died with honor his spirit will stand proudly beside his ancestors"
This time the word passed to Seliarnevre whom he sacrificed his life to protect
"Richard was not the strongest warrior of our Dynasty but he was one of the bravest, me and my son will never forget him we will repay our debt to him by always being there for his family whenever they need help"
When Seliarnevre finished speaking, Ricardo grabbed his mother's skirt and pulled her Seliarnevre looked at her son and when she saw Ricardo's desire to speak, she stepped back and left the floor to her son Ricardo
"There are many things I want to say but I feel like my tongue is knotted, I had many things to learn from him, there were things I wanted to do with him but because of those dishonorable people, none of them will happen anymore. I, Ricardo, the son of the House Lord IV Orsman Kislavein, swear that I will kill everyone who organized this assassination in the most horrible and brutal way"
Everyone was horrified, how could an eight-year-old child say such things, even though the blood of Kislavein flowed in his veins, this much froze the blood of the people, one of the people at the funeral
"This kid will grow up to be a fierce warrior, I will look forward to that day"
But not all of them were afraid, one was very impressed
A little girl was probably Ricardo's age and turned to her brother
"Wow, man, this kid is so cool"
The girl's brother was also impressed, when he looked at his brother, he saw that the sadness on his face had changed to an expression of admiration, his sister, who had been about to cry over their grandfather's death until a moment ago, had lost her sadness and had a cheerful face instead
"Brother, yes, he is cool, but why are you laughing, we are at our grandfather's funeral"
The little girl was aware of where she was but this feeling inside her was something very different she had never felt this way before
"I'm sorry brother but I don't know I want to smile when I look at him"
Her brother trembled for some reason he felt uneasy probably what every brother will experience sooner or later happened to him too
"Or did she fall in love with him just because he swore revenge for my grandfather oh I don't know what to think I'm so tired "
The funeral continued with the speeches of others in turn, the comrades in arms and family members gave their speeches in turn, when everyone had finished speaking it was time for the burial. The Kislavein warriors took Richard's coffin from the black marble plinth and carried it to the Martyrs' Cemetery, where he was buried next to his grandfather who had died in the war just like him.
After the funeral, Ricardo and Seliarnevre went to Richard's son Eduardo and his grandsons Marco and Marilin, their aim was to fulfill the promises they had made in the speech. Eduardo and his children Marco and Marilin, who saw Ricardo and Seliarnevre, bowed on their knees.
"My Lady, My Young Lord"
Seliarnevre signaled them to stand up and began to speak in a respectful tone
"Please don't do this, today is your day of mourning"
Eduardo stood up, bowed his head and did not change his tone in a respectful tone and answered his Lady
"No, my Lady, you are the Lady of the Dynasty and we are the warriors who can be replaced, may our lives be sacrificed for you, my father would never regret what he did, there is no need to be sad"
Ricardo intervened, he seemed angry but he could not change his tone, he was one of the candidates for the Heir of this Dynasty
"We owe our lives to your father Eduardo, the warrior. You don't have to be sober. We will always be there for you whenever you need help. "
Eduardo was very impressed by the Young Lord's word gallows, but the sadness inside him suppressed his admiration, when he felt that he could not stand up any longer, he asked for permission to leave the cemetery, he quickly retreated to his room, lost his balance and fell to the ground, tears started to flow from his eyes, he clenched his teeth and suppressed his voice
"Haa haa dad, what am I going to do now, I was very attached to you after my mother, I know I shouldn't say this, but I wish they had died instead of you"
The children who were listening to their father behind the door entered Eduardo wiped his tears stood up turned around looked at his children who looked like they were about to cry there was no question of weakness in this dynasty narrowed his eyes frowned took a hard step forward the children stepped back in fear started speaking in a harsh tone
"Don't even think about crying we are the Kislavein Dynasty we don't cry we live and die for our Lord today your grandfather tomorrow me you understand"
The children were breathless with fear and didn't know what to say. When Eduardo left the room and closed the door, the children's legs were tied and they cried silently. It was the last cry for both of them. After a while, Eduardo was appointed as Ricardo's guard and master instead of his father. From that time on, Ricardo grew up and trained with the grandchildren of his former master Richard and they became close friends.
