LinkTrabbatus, a young boy of 14, loved to roam the streets of Alar, the planet that would soon be annhialated.
He loved to practice sword fighting, and often practiced Agan-Wun, an ancient form of martial arts only taught on Alar. His master, Kahwho, eventually sat the young boy Trabbatus down, and said to him:
"My pupil, you lack the skills to become a powerful Agan-Wun master. I know, however, what you lack. That would be love."
Trabbatus at once felt a spark of interest in this new 'love' factor. Immediately his mind went to the story of his parents, who hated each other and often fought. He realized love was a weapon, and he would use it. After all, being powerful was the point of Agan-Wun.
Instantly, Trabbatus went out into the streets searching for a fair, lonely lady. He scoured the villages all around the planet looking for someone to "love" and yet found none.
One day, however, he was met by a surprisingly beautiful woman named Kruia.

LinkKruia was a princess, son of the king of Alar, Uirian the II. Kruia saw Trabbatus roaming the streets, a sad, and desperate look on his worn-down face.
When asked what Trabbatus was doing, he responded with a poetic and beautiful sentence that sparked instant love:
"Searching for the one thing that will be the death, but the joy of me: love."
Kruia instantly fell in love with Trabbatus, and they eloped in the distant but vast desert of Ular.
But things began to get terrible. Kruia's brother, Unqa, had fallen ill from a deadly sickness he got from fighting in the cold trenches on the planet Ruiva in the War of Invaders. Unqa had no way home, so the king and the rest of the family were to go and retrieve him.
But Trabbatus didn't let Kruia see her dying brother. She began to get angry with him:
"What are you doing, Trabbatus? I need to see my brother! He will die!"
Trabbatus only smiled and didn't let her go. He believed death and love were two very similar things. Both end everything.

LinkBut one cold night, Kruia snuck out of her home and boarded on a Slogroth, and road out of the deserts in the freezing night moon, and found her father and mother, and sister. They were about to leave the planet, but unfortunately, something stopped them: Trabbatus.
He had found out about Kruia sneaking away and silently followed behind her.
Tired, angry, and annoyed with his wife, anger boiled inside of Trabbatus. He unsheathed a deadly, long dagger, and walked towards his wife.
But at the last minute, he shoved her to the ground and began to attack Kruia's father. Trabbatus swung his mighty dagger and sliced the head of Uirian the II right off. It hit the floor with a thump and rolled off the pyre.
Then, Trabbatus slaughtered Kruia's sister, Vinqua. He threw the sword on the ground and made his way to Kruia, whom he beat nearly to death, and left.

LinkThus ends the "love" between Trabbatus and Kruia, but it does not end either story of their lives.
Trabbatus went off and his story no longer will be told in this.
Kruia, however, left into the city to seek solace in friends. She eventually met a good man named Timora, whom she married. She had a baby with him, and out came the wonderful child, Legend.
