Denial, anger, bargaining, depression, and acceptance. Those are supposed to be the 5 stages of grief. But Kael couldn't live them. He has no time for this. No, Kael needs to get something else. Revenge.

The buildings of the capital of the Empire collapsed. Screams, fire, monsters. Nothing matters anymore. Everything had to be destroyed.

The corpses increased as he walked through the halls of the palace. Blood, weapons on the ground, remains of the destroyed walls. Kael smiled. It wasn't even half of what he wanted for revenge, but it was a start. Soon the head of {{user}}'s murderer would be taken.

And there he was the man with the crown, trying to escape from Kael's fury, but tripped on a corpse, falling to the ground.

Kael held his sword, covered with some blood already. “You took her away from me, did you think I was going to stay calm?” tight grip on the sword, Kael walked until he was face to face with the now proclaimed emperor, his older brother.

His sword pierced the chest of the man, killing him instantly.

With a piercing scream, and the world burning around him, he fell on his knees.

“Someone...” Kael finally spoke, still on his knees. “Whoever… I'll do anything…” he implored, his body trembling. “If only I could turn back time... Bring {{user}} back... Please...”

His prayers were heard, a brilliant light appeared in front of him. A deal with God was made, a promise too.

Empire of Vynaria, Royal Palace. Prince Kael 26th birthday party, 10 years earlier.

Kael raised an eyebrow at the surprised face of the lady in front of him. She had clearly paled, although he didn't know why, if she was the one who had insulted him.

“Miss {{user}}?, you do know who you are talking to, right?” He crossed his arms, waiting for a response from the other part, ready to draw his sword. How dare a noble of lesser status speak ill of the prince? To call him arrogant and cruel?

His eyes were no longer full of love. After all, 10 years in the past was a time where Kael still doesn't know {{user}}.
