Chapter 1
Introduktion
The year is 1300 and the Christian arme is setting in close. The muslim kingdom dosen’t have long before they needto make a decision. Either to stay or to run away. The kings brother Hakim is convincing the King to fight the war rather than to try and make peace with the Christian and negotiate. But no one really believe anything his saying. To go to war with the Christian arme would be suicide and would only mean tremendously loss of life at our side. The brother of the Persian king is looking at the others trying to calm down the crowd of noble men that have gathered at the hall of the great castle of Tehran. ”Dear Nobleman, thank you for being here at this great trial of our people, we the Persians have a inherit right to this land! A right given to us by birth.” He stops and look at his brother and takes few steps closer to his brother table. ”Dear brother, My king. Let’s fight this war with pride because indeed we have something on our side that they don’t have and never will have with is the truth. The truth being us. The Persians are the truth to Persia and Persia is the truth to Persians. Now who is with me”. The entire castle filled up with the chant of hundreds of men, the noble, the guards all the way down to the chef and personal advisers. All wanted to fight. But no amount of spirit could have prepared the Persian arme for what was coming their way. A arme as wide like the mountains and tall as the sky. By the end of the Christian arme was nothing but the Christian arme. The Persian king was a loyal man to his kin and especially to his brother for in his eyes, nothing is more precious as your own blood. Believing fully in his brothers words the king decided to fight and putting his trust in God. Not be known to him was that his younger brother Hakim was conspiring with the Romans to help kill the king and all his noblemen for then all of their land, money and the title of the King be given to him. The day of the war had come and the King had said goodbye to his wife and newborn daughter. When the King arrived with is arme Hakim mad his true intention known by being on the other side of the arme. Hakim knowing the warplane the Persians had planned the king knew this was a war lost. But before the fight started the king called on one of his men, the man with the fastest horse and told him to ride as fast as he could back to the palace and make it known that the King has been betrayed by his own brother and to get the queen and the little princss Jasmine out of there. The King’s noblemen and the King himself and all his men fought bravely into their last breath but as fate would have it the Romans won. The king’s man made it to the palace and made it known that Hakim was a traitor and that the queen and the little princess needs to hide. The queen decided to give the title newborn princess to one of the maids and stayed behind herself. All that she left to the title princess was a neckless, the amber neckless that would lead her to the hidden diamond stone. The hidden diamond stonehelps the true ruler of Persia to ignite the fire inside. But the Diamond stone often called ”the stone” is guarded by a dragon witch are all hidden away in the mountains and the only map reside in the amber bracelet. The princess being born made the king weak and he couldn’t ignite the fire inside him ande fight the roman arme with the help of the dragon since the newborn princess is now the only one who can fight with the help of the stone and dragon. Hakim knowing this made a deal with the romans saying that if they helped him kill all of the king family and all the noblemen, the amber necklace would obey him and the the stone’s power would belong to him. The Romans chooses to believe Hakim and take this chance of having a ruler of Persia witch would be a ally to them. The war had been won and the Roman arme is now on it’s way to the Tehran castle. Sending out small number of men to each noble men’s house to kill of their remaining family’s. The Roman arme is now outside the Tehran castle and the ruler of the roman empire Nicolas has entered alongside Hakim. The roman soldiers killed every courts member that already didn’t die and Hakim even had his own father being killed. The queen was captured and tortured to give up where she hide the princess but wouldn’t say a word so the Hakim lastly killed her with his own hands. The slaughter of the palace became infamous around the world as the most brutal killings of royal people. Not having killed the princess made Hakim not holding his word to the Emperor Nicolas. But Hakim still persuaded the king and said that the amber neckless is complete worthless until the princess turns 17 years old. And that Hakim has until the princess 20’th birthday to kill her. The king not having any other chice but to take Hakim’s word for it agreed to the deal.
Chapter 1. Jasmine
”Please, aunty silva please. Tell me more about my mother the Queen of Persia”. ”Dear Jasmine your mother Queen Aliya had dark eyes just like you with hair so orange like the fire that during windy days from afar you would have believed it was a real fire that’s why you have to hide your hair”. ”Your mother had skin as white as yours and lips as pink, nose as perfectly uneven that it became beautiful in the eyes of the withholder”. ”Your Mother dear Jasmine loved you, more than you could ever imagine, for her you were the meaning of life”. This conversation at the sixth of Jasmine’s birthday lived vividly in her mind and today was her 19th birthday. The once great kingdom of Persia is now nothing but a memory of the past. The now king is heavily taxing the poor and sending away young Persians boy to serve in the Roman Empire. His own army is harassing the people of Persia and food and water is never enough for any family. The once clean streets are now filled with human decompose and trash and the once green forest is today nonexistent. The king’s brutal rule has made the farmers not having enough for themselves or the Persian people by taking almost everything from them and hosting grand balls. The people are starving and my people future are resting on me. For me to take te amber necklace and let it lead me to the stone. The Persians are still hopeful of me even though they don’t know it’s me. I hide my hair and rarely leave my house. Aunty silva has done her best not letting outsiders in to our home. The king is angry that I’m still alive because every day that I’m not killed is a another day closer to his defeat and he knows this as does the romans. I heard that the king is holding an assembly right now about me still being alive and having the amber necklace. Master the King is calling on a assembly and you need to be there on place. The hallways of the great palace of Tehran that once was filled with blood spilling down the stairs are now once again filled with life. The hal is filled with the legal advisers of the king and the Kings closest generals. All falling down on their knees begging for forgiveness for not founding the princess. A man called ”Mosa” took stage to demonstrate other strategies to found the princess but before he could Finnish his sentence the kind grabbed his sword and cut of his throat. Mosa’s head was lying on the floor and the room got silenced. ”I don’t need word’s of wisdom, I don’t need words of declaration of loyalty, I want the princess dead now! Everybody out and leave me alone”. The now King Hakim takes a seat at his royal chair. Unbeknown to him a Roman mule was in that hall and when he went back to his room wrote a letter to the Roman King. ”My dear King, The state of King Hakim is unstable and they the Persians have not been able to find the princess. We must find the princess before her 20’th birthday witch is in a year. This is before the amber necklace starts communicating with the princess. With dearest reagards your servant”. The mule then took his eagle and bonded the piece of paper to the eagles foot. After three days and nights the eagle made its way to the roman palace in Rom. The grand stall of King Nicolas eagles all head there to drop of their message and waiting for them is the legal advisers of King Nicolas which handels all of the Kings messengers from the eagles. The legal adviser immediately went to the King Nicolas.
The great palace of Rom has 13 halls and 3 grand stairs, 10 bedroom chambers all for the royals to the right wing. The left wing of the palace is for the help and for spare rooms also where the torture chambers are for the noblemen. The ruler of the Roman Empire is a ruthless Emperor. But nothing compared to his son. Alexander has brown hair with blue eyes. Tanned skin and tall with a slim, muscular body. Alexander has the greatest potential with his cunning plans and his way of controlling an army. Having proved himself at the battle of Vienna. An infamous story about a ruthless prince with no mercy. The prince has a way of finding his way by his charming looks and character. But King Nicolas has called for Prince Alexander, Kristofer is now on his way to tell the prince about call. The closest to the prince is ”Kristofer” his right wing man”. Whorumor has it is the only one the prince will actually listen to. The Prince right now is in the chambers of torture, whipping a prisoner to make him talk. ”Alexander, your father the king is calling you. Leave the chambers of torture and leave this man faith in my hands and I swear to you I will make him talk before the end of this evening”. Alexander all sweaty and wet through out his clothes is smiling with his wicked smile asking Kristofer if he wants to deprive his future King of pleasure. ”My Prince, I would never”. The prince is stretching his back by lifting up his arms and pulling them back for then to take a step back with his left foot and then with all his power whip the prisoner. The Prisoner let out a scream that ended down shivers through all the other prisoners who yet didn’t meet the Prince in their cells and all the guards who all feared the Prince. The Prince manages the tortures for all the Prisoners. The prisoner a soldier from the army of Vienna knows information of where the traitor of the Romans are. A man that gave information about the Roman army to the people of Vienna for money. To then than take the money and disappear. Alexander having been suspecting someone is betraying him let all his general know one plan of the war but none of them knowing the real one until the day of the war. Alexander noticing that the Viennas where preaperd as if the war plan would be like one of the generals. He now knew who the traitor was. The general of name ”Matthias” had some time to escape before in the middle of the war. And the only one who saw him was the one Vienna soldier who the Prince thinks knows more. Trebling the prisoner looked up to the prince with his flesh out and the new blood on top of the blood that had already dried. His trying to speak and as he tries to talk the prince bows down and has a smirk on his face. ”Do you want to tell me anything? Tell me now so I my know. Don’t be scared”. The prisoner gathers all his power left in him and looks into the prince eyes and says ”Believe me, I know nothing. I saw the general at the halls of the fallen King’s palace. All I know is that he would have planned to escape out to the east”. The prince smirk has fallen down a bit and his blue eyes started to water as he looks at his marks in the prisoners flesh. He then stands up and take of his shirt to then looks down on the prisoner and says ”I hope you understand that I cannot leave you unfinshed”. Alexander then tells Kristofer to leave and tell his father that he will be there soon. Kristofer left and made sure to close the door after him. The prisoner trembling, with all of his flesh out started to beg the Prince knowing that it’s for a lost cause. The Prince started at the middle of the prisoners prayers to whip him. One after the other until there was nothing more left of him. The prisoner died finally at last. Alexander then went up to his room too take a bath and everyone at the castle had heard the crying of the prisoner but no one ever dared to look the Prince in the eyes or greet him let alone question him. It was a rule of fear and madness. After taking shower and having put on some new clothes the Prince went to his father to talk.
