Introduction
I make history
with my pen.
Words pour from
the soul onto paper,
Still untouched
by anyone.
And legends will
become known
That have not
yet been sung.
Now you will get
to know them
By reading these
lines...
Somewhere far
away there is a mysterious world that is made of the ki.
In this world, the wisdom of past generations is combined with modern
and incredible discoveries, as well as miracles that have not even
been dreamed of by the human mind.
Tanfu
is similar to our world, has its own amazing customs, culture and a
special natural system. Regardless of its origin, every living being
is free and whoever it is, they will always find a place in this
extraordinary world, in one or another corner of the planet. In
countless indestructible kingdoms and small powers, peoples of
various nationalities and cultures have the right to live.
Our
story starting
around one of the most powerful kingdoms today and its name is
Alamut.
Now it is ruled by the noble king Eldar IV – a man of honor, a
decent and respected heir to one of the 12 Great Clans, the Minakawa
clan.
Even in this fairy-tale world, people with such special blood are
extremely rare. They are able to suppress or destroy any
manifestation of magical abilities. Such an
‘anti-magic’. He is one of those few rulers who will spare
nothing for the well-being of his people. It is believed that it is
this character trait that determines leadership qualities in a
person.
Today, his
supreme adviser is the shin-ken
Linji Suzuki,
who is also the commander-in-chief of the Alamut army. That is, the
right hand of the king himself. Linji obeys unquestioningly only the
king, but also his position provides the opportunity, if necessary,
to make decisions on the defense of the country. With his opinion,
all those in power in Alamut are considered. As in other lands and
powers, the troops of Alamut are required to protect and maintain
internal order. In other words, having joined the ranks of the army,
everyone undertakes to protect their homeland, in any situation, even
at the cost of their lives.
The capital
of Alamut is Shanzhi,
a city that has become famous since its founding. Among the most
beautiful tranquil parks, flowering gardens and marvelous fountains,
whose splendor can dazzle any person with its beauty, there are the
main headquarters, the estate of the commander-in-chief and here is
the royal palace.
At its core,
Shanzhi is a somewhat controversial city. It combines the sweet
cosiness of antiquity in the form of wooden houses, exquisite
cottages, narrow shady streets, cozy corners of relaxation on the
picturesque banks of clean ponds. And the center, with its majestic
buildings built by talented architects, wide avenues and beautiful
chestnut alleys.
On the main
street of the Eastern sector of Shanzhi is the house of our main
character, his name is Dzen Hagane.
Now he is 17 years old. Today, the head of the Hagane clan is
represented by Yamamoto,
the generous Dzen’s grandfather. Due to the circumstances that
arose, the family of young Hagane was forced to move to the capital,
from distant Hios.
Here they settled for an indefinite period. They were lucky enough to
live in a cozy three-story cottage with a luxurious garden, which
adorns the view of the backyard so beautifully. Their family consists
of 5 people: parents, Lily
and Fujisaki,
younger brother Riyuji
and sister Jun,
and of course, our hero is Dzen. Having changed his place of
residence, he happened to move to the local academy, where he
succeeded significantly. In such educational institutions, students
receive a basic education that is equivalent in terms of knowledge to
our universities. In addition, starting
from the 5th year of study, they study military affairs.
