Neptune Glazier

My brother and I are descendants of Royalty, our father an honest, loyal, respectable King. But, despite all that villagers still believed that we lived in a life of luxury, while everyone shriveled away in pain, a constant fight for survival.

Of course, all it ever was, was lies. Because like everyone else we to had cut back on our meals, rummage through trash and turn on our beloved, harmless creatures, that were once majestic, magical, innocent beings, now all they ever were, was food to satisfy our dire hunger.

Ever since, the Curse our world has been torn apart. Not only leaving our Kingdom barren and desolate, but causing our peoples hearts to cloud with misery. Some becoming storms, others heavy rain and others pure hurricanes.

Me and my brother stand in the sea, holding hands, while we wait for the murpa to arrive.

The Murpa were a creature that communicated through water, you simply stood the in the waves and wherever they lay, they could feel your senses, hearing your own thoughts.

My brother and I had been having one of our usual controversial conversations. He was an idealist, seeing everything as an opportunity to better our current circumstance. While I on the other hand, just lived in the moment. Although, these differences did not keep us apart, no, in fact, these differences brought us together, our bond unbreakable.

And today was no different, as my brother is suddenly pulled under water, his breath becoming shortened, as he repeatedly screams "Its noon! Its coming!"

I try to assist my brother, bellowing out his name "Jupiter, Jupiter" but it was no use, it was like there was an unknown force that was keeping
me at bay. The exact same force that beckons me to look up at the sky, at the exact same time, a blur of light falls from the sky, crashing straight into the water.

The cause of this light soon emerges, as it emerges itself from the depth of the sea.

It was a man, indifferent to our species, from another world, another existence. But the biggest question I longed to be answered was who was this man and what did he intend to do with our kingdom.
