Rise Of A Fallen God 45 Vesta Blood Rain

"Let's go home son, bring the troops who follow you as well we can leave the battle for another day. As I am sure the Violet Star Clan will need time to sort out their future plans." Said Dashnell has he opened up a tunnel in s.p.a.ce leading directly into the Thousand Empress Palace.

The very s.p.a.ce of the entire border Palace froze as no one could move without Dashnell allowing it.

Hearing the familiar voice of his father General Blood Rain standing in front of his troops reverts to his original form looking much like his mother Samara, turning his head his blonde hair and red eyes look in the direction he heard his father's voice. After nodding his head he shouts out to his troops that they will now carry out their long awaited plan of joining the Dragon Empire, the only thing that changed in the plan was they were no longer going to be attacking Bright Star from inside.

All of the leaders of the Bright Star alliance then received reports of one of their biggest armies defecting to the Dragon Empire, and the one responsible for this is the Dragon Emperor who personally invaded them while crus.h.i.+ng Gold l.u.s.ter and his forces forcing him to retreat.

Other reports detailed how his son General Blood Rain who they depended on these last few months was a plant in Bright Star for more than 10 years, he developed a ma.s.sive independant army before accepting the offer to join the Violet Star Clan. They were not the only ones dealing with ma.s.s defection, young men and women from every Continent seemed to originally be from the Dragon Empire. As more and more of these defectors move back into Blood Sun territory the several alliances start to crumble as they search for other plants within the group, these searches were cruel and rushed and after a week of looking into this problem another popped up.

News of the largest Continent the Super power known as the Heavens Might Continent has allied with Blood Sun, everyone looking into this development was shocked to find that while Blood Sun was being unified under the Dragon Empire, Heavens Might was also undergoing a ma.s.sive power struggle. As each of the alliances curse the inability of their Ghost that failed to watch over the most powerful force on this planet, and now only find out it has allied with the enemy who wishes to control the entire planet, the most shocking news they received from Heavens Might was that the force that unified the Continent was the Silver Moon Family's youngest princess who is going to be married into the Dragon Empire in a few weeks.

Lime Leaf Training ground.

"Get up Vesta! In the coming wars you will lead our forces your father has chosen you out of all the other children to represent him to represent us, the others may still call you General Blood Rain but you are my child Vesta. Your father and I won't be able to always protect you, you almost died and you did not even have known why!" Samara Said as she surrounded the training ground in her Blood Domain, the entire field covered in a sea of blood.

Vesta tries to calm his mother down but fails in his every attempt, his saving grace was his father appearing a few hour into his 'training' as he dragged the worried mother away trapping her in his tail. Telling her their son will be fine he has developed quite well while he was pretending to be a human all these years, that they will have to correct his training but they can get Valara to handle that as all their children they scattered across this world are now returning back to Blood Sun their new home.

Many of his sons have taken on wives and taken over Kingdom or Empires, his daughters remained single but had achieved similar if not better results than their brothers. While he has just four sons he has nearly a thousand daughters.

....

Vesta after returning heads towards the Pill Pavilion within the Palace, behind him is a timid looking young girl, the pet.i.te girl was one of the first people he met after he arrived in Bright Star ten years ago. She was stuck at the Heaven Realm due to her bloodline being to impure she has only told Blood Rain that she was a Beast who gained human form, as her bloodline no matter how impure was something the humans hunted her kind for. As she is a descendant from an Ancient Dragon Clan that was hunted to near extinction, her love for Blood Rain even helped her enter human cities as she followed him everywhere as he treated her kindly. Thinking her blood would be used as a gift to his faster the Dragon Emperor she still willingly followed him to Blood Sun, as they reached the Pill Pavilion a youth was already waiting for their arrival.

Larisa walking behind Vesta looks at the waiting Pill refiner, chills run down her spin as she thinks of all the things Pill refiners would use dragon parts for be it her eyes, blood, bones or hair. Looking back at the panicked girl Vesta pulls her in to his chest. "Calm down I would never allow anyone to hurt you Larisa, we are here to help you break past the Heaven Realm. One of the reasons I always helped you is because a lot of my mothers who raised me have similar traits of the half dragons from this world, I have already found a way to help you purify your blood. The method is not going to harm you one bit, and if it does I will be here every step of the way." Vesta Said trying his best to calm her.

Walking out of the Pavilion Dashnell spots the ones he has been waiting for, he then speaks up to let them know not to waste anymore of his time. Nathaniel then takes out the Cauldron as he throws various herbs and liquids into the mixture he then looks at the Emperor with a nervous expression.

"Um.. Emperor I.. I will now take the blood sample from you please don't send me to Valara's training camp if this goes wrong." Nathaniel said as he moved to obtain a vial of Dashnell's blood.

Watching this all happen Larisa is confused as to why Vesta's father the Emperor would give blood while she is present, as she looks over to ask Vesta she feels an overwhelming oppression from the Blood in the vial as if it is calling to her. She then studies everyone in the room but they do not seem to be affected by the blood at all, she then tries to move close but fails to even lift up her feet in the direction of the blood. Nathaniel who is to focused on the vial of blood begins to refine the pill that Vesta requested from him, Dashnell's blood being the key component in this Blood Purification Pill.

As the blood is mixed into the Cauldron an refined into a pill the oppression Tarisa felt begins to weaken, she then bombards Vesta with numerous questions.

"What is your Father? Where did he come from? Is he an Ancient Dragon is that why he calls himself the Dragon Emperor!? Is your blood the same? Why did you not tell me you had dragon blood within you? I thought you were going to grind me into pills today!" The girl said out loud forgetting others could hear her words, she then covered her mouth as she looks over at Dashnell.

"You don't have to worry child my son has told me about you, he has fallen in love and wishes to help you, I have warned him but... never mind what is to come will come. My blood will cleanse your impure blood making it become that of a pure blooded dragon once more, the down side is something I will deal with in the future all I ask for in return is for you try your best to make my son happy." Dashnell said as he vanishes from sight.

Vesta understood the meaning but could not stop Larisa from taking the pill that would allow her to live longer, this was the only way and he will deal with the consequences once they come but until then he will make a family with the girl who has stolen his heart. With the blood red pill in her hand pulsing like a heartbeat she hesitates, as she wants to know what the Emperor was speaking about.

Nathaniel then tells her that there is a chance she might die if her blood is to impure as Dashnell's would consume her until not even bones would be left as she died, although this was true in some of the cases he read about from the Fallen Ash Kingdom archives. But he knew that was not the warning the Emperor was speaking about, as he could tell he was not the right person to reveal the truth he chose to tell her the only truth he could.
