The story of Dark clove

This story starts from that time when there was no technologies that there is in this era, the only medium of communication was transfer of letters by pegion. The only medium of Transportation was horse. The world was divided into numerous kingdom and every next season a kingdom had to go through war because there were no such things as peace treaties at that time. Strong kingdom used to takeover weak one and become stronger. The kingdom used to invest all the budgets in their military and to safeguard their area. Strength of the king's heir and the number of the prince in the kingdom used to be the threspoint to measure the strength, and the kingdom which doesn't use to have heir was considered weak.

In that period there was a kingdom called Dark clove, which was situated in the area which is known as Tibet now, it was a huge kingdom and the most powerful one in the world. The kingdom was surrounded by huge walls and was totally isolated from the outer world. It never loses a battle and it had a pattern of taking over other kingdoms too, once a leap year they used to go on war and it used to last for at least a month. It was ruled by King Sivang, he was a tall, bearded and muscular man who was crowned at 10 when his dad died of an unknown disease. Even at that age, he gave victory to his kingdom, he was considered the most powerful king ever in that kingdom. He married princess Levia of Levia, a kingdom situated in the desert. Levia was offered to him as a peace offering when Sivang tried to attack that kingdom. He married Levia in front of the world but in reality, he never gave her the place of his wife. He never used to sleep with her, as a normal husband and wife would have, He had a mistress with whom he used to spend the most time. That is why even after 10 years of marriage they didn't have any child. Sivang used to blame Levia for not having a child in front of others despite being the one not willing to make any relation with her. But he had 10 sons from his mistress but as they were illegitimate they were never considered to be the heir of the kingdom. Apart from all things the kingdom still needed an heir. Every citizen of that nation began raising their voice for an heir and Sivang to satisfy his ren decided to make one of his illegitimate children an heir rather than making relation with Levia. She couldn't stand that, she couldn't become a wife, but she wanted to be a mother. She disguised herself as a normal citizen and sneak out from the palace to meet a sage deep in the forest who was said to have mystical powers. She served that sage for a month still disguised as a normal woman and at the end of the month soldiers from the palace came there in search of her that was when Sage realized who she was

"Why you did that, your majesty. Now I will be cursed for making a queen serve me", said he falling on his knees

"You are older than me", said Levia making him get on his foot, "I wanted a favor from you thus before asking for that I wanted to serve you so that I could repay you before you know who I am"

"Anything that is in my hand is yours, queen"

"I want you to give me something so that I can give this kingdom its heir without copulating"

"Don't worry queen, tell me what quality you want in your son?" asked the sage

Levia smiled when she knew her dream was going to be fulfilled, "I want a son who is very honest, respect his elder, love his younger, and always walk on the path of truth", said she

"And"

" He should be strong too, along with honesty he should have the strength to wipe away all the bad stains in the path"

"And"

"I want him to be handsome, very handsome so that the girl who gets a look of him will fall for him"

"And"

"I want him to be very kind, to every living organism"

"I will grant you all your wish on your son"

"And yes, I also want my son to be intelligent, you know he could read the orientation of stars so that he will get the sign before something happens"

"I will try to grant that too", said the sage and gave Levia an apple.

"An apple", she asked in surprise

"Eat half of it yourself and make his majesty eat another half, you will be pregnant with your son the very next day," said the sage, and Levia took the apple and leave the jungle with the soldiers.

At the palace, Sivang was too angry as being the legitimate queen her being lost for so many days would raise questions on him and his esteem. As soon as Levia reached the palace, the king took her to his space and pushed her on the floor

"Where were you all these days, do you know what rumor was spread in the country. People were saying I didn't satisfy you so you went wandering to another guy", shouted Sivang. Levia just shed tears from her eyes and shuts her mouth

"Why aren't you speaking? Tell me whom did you sleep with", he shouted again and Levia just tried to stand on her foot and lowering down her head, "Your majesty, everyone in the nation was blaming me for not having a child. so.."

"So, you went to another guy to have a child?", said the king throwing the wooden table infront him

"No, your majesty please don't suspect my purity. I went to a sage, my maids were talking about him and were saying that he has mystical powers. So I went to him and asked him to make me give birth to the heir of this nation without breaking my virginity. He granted me the wish"

"You are joking right, nothing like that is possible"

"He gave me an apple, my majesty. He asked me to give you half of it and asked me to have the other half. According to him, I will be pregnant the next morning"

"Do you think I am an i***t? To hide your relation with other man and the souvenir in your stomach you are making the whole story. What do you think of me?", he said pressing her neck with one hand

"Believe me, your majesty, I want you to imprison me for 3 months, till then you will know if I was trying to betray you or not"

"I am definitely going to do that", he said

'But promise me, if your suspicion comes out to be wrong you have to give that method a chance. I know you will never want to have a s****l relationship with me, so this will be the only chance for you to get a legitimate heir of the nation"

He looked at her for a while and then nodded his head in yes, "I promise, after 3 months if you came out to be naïve then I will eat half of the apple and make you eat the other half but even after that you won’t be able to give me a son then you have to bear the consequences"

"I am ready", said Levia and from then she was held captive in prison. No one was allowed to go look at her other than the king.

Like this, the three months went by and Levia was proved to be naïve. As Sivang promised he ate half of the apple and gave the other half to Levia and surprisingly she was pregnant the very other days. The news of Levia's pregnancy spread throughout the nation and every citizen was celebrating it. Sivang was very happy, The thing which used to snatch his sleep was getting satisfied. He couldn't help but began spending the most time with Levia, he used to take care of her. He stopped shouting at her completely and those times he also stopped spending time with his mistress Savya. Levia was pleased with everything that was happening, she used to think that her son was eliminating all of her sadness little by little.

Sivang used to talk with his son, every night before going to bed by facing toward Levia's stomach. He was already fond of him, after 10 years of marriage Sivang slept on Levia's space while telling his son stories about his bravery.

The 9 months were already gone and with that, the space between Levia and Sivang had also decreased a lot. Levia gave birth to five sons, everyone was surprised about that miracle. The sage who gave the apple was invited for the naming ceremony, he was utterly welcomed with flowers, garlands, and dancers in the palace and was made to sit in a special guest position.

 "Because of you, I got the pleasure of becoming a father of five sons", said Sivang joining his hands to him

"It was my duty, your majesty. The queen served me for a month without even making me realize who she was. she got what she deserved"

"But, I asked you for one son and you gave me five", said Levia being Curious

"respected queen, when you told me the qualities you wanted in your son, I realized that it was impossible for a single person to have all those qualities. So the qualities you wanted in your son had been divided into five.

The first one, he will become the person who will always walk on the path of truth, he will always balance the law in the nation.

The second one he will be the strength of your nation. He will be known worldwide for his strength

The third one he will be the most handsome guy in the whole world. He can make anyone fall on his beauty.

The fourth one will be the kindest of all, he will have empathy for all the living organism on the planet

The fifth one has the ability to foresee the future, he can sense any bad omen coming in the future.

So like this your five sons are the combination of all the qualities that everyone needs in a king. They could be five from outside but inside they are one. They are a single soul divided into five, they can't live separated from eachother. When they are together it is almost impossible to defeat them", said the sage, and everyone in that palace began to cheer for the princes.

Sivang with utmost pleasure goes toward his sons and lifts the first one in his hand, "His name will be Tyler because he is the emblem of truth", says he and

the whole crowds cheered for Tyler, "Our prince Tyler", everyone was shouted showering flowers on him.

Sivang then lifts up his second son, "He will be known for his strength, so I will name him Vigour"

The crowd again express their enthusiasm, "Our prince Vigour", they began cheering for him and started showering flowers at him

Sivang now lifts up his third son, "He will be the most handsome man in this world so his name will be Allure". Then he picks up the fourth one and names him Gracious.

He picks up the fifth one and says, "He will show the path to his older brothers so I will name him Aven", the whole crowd again cheers for him with the utmost respect for all of the prince.

Seeing all the special treatment given to Levia's just born sons, Savya whose 10 sons from the same father who have treated nothing like that began to urge for the same type of honor for her sons as Tyler and his brothers were getting, wanted the same type of respect that Levia was getting from the ren. Her heart was also burning due to the decreasing distance between Sivang and Levia, and her years of hard work to make the king happy was seen to be going in vain.

She wanted to kill each one of Levia's sons so her son would get the chance to become the heir of the throne. So one day she mixes poison on five of the prince's milk. Thankfully that day, Vigour who was the emblem of strength throws it from Levia's hand when he was just 6 months old when she was trying to feed him and the milk spills all over the ground. Levia used to pet a dog which used to be her friend when the king doesn't use to give much attention to her. It came and started licking the milk, after licking it in less than a minute it began to bark in pain and dies a painful death. Witnessing that, Levia screams to everyone to stop feeding their son that milk. King in anger imprison everyone in the kitchen department and began torturing them to tell who did that crime, but none of them knew who actually did that. After a month that rumor faded away but those servants who used to work in the kitchen never got justice.

Seeing her plan failed, Savya again starts to make a plan to kill Levia's sons. She hires swordsman and gives them money to kill each one of the five princes. That sword man really killed five children but they weren't Levia's sons, they were children of the prisoners who needed care. The king used to put his five sons in the space near his room while lying to everyone about their exact location to save them from any danger. The next morning when everyone knew about the murder of five of the prisoner's children, it was sure that there was someone in the palace who was behind five princes' life. The king used all the powers he had to find out the real criminal but Savya who had spent so many years with the king knew his every reaction and made a plan according to it. Levia began to feel threatened in her own space, she didn't want to take a chance about the safety of her sons. She goes to the king and requests him to let her visit Levia kingdom with her sons, that way she thought they will be safe.

The king who was already worried about continuous attacks happening on princes grants Levia's wish to visit her parents. That way the five princes leave their land to go and live on Levia when the princes were just 9-month old

"After everything becomes stable, I will come to bring you and my sons back home", said the king putting his wife and his son on a chariot for the journey to Levia. The whole nation was at mourn to see their heir leave because of their safety. Even after they left the country the king kept on searching for the betrayer in that palace. Finding the opportunity to regain the lost love of king Savya begins to serve Sivang more hard. She begins to influence him with her unctuous talks and begins to make her oldest son Dravya who was already 15 years old look good in his eyes.

Dravya was wise just like his mother, he doesn't use to leave a single chance of showing himself capable of being the heir. He was so hungry for the throne that since he was 5 years he began to learn to use all kinds of weapons and began to learn about politics. For him, it was the throne or nothing.

Even after trying to influence the king, the king was persistent in making Tyler his heir and he always used to say once he becomes 15 he will crown him the king. That makes Savya and Dravya really mad, so they start planning about his murder. Savya by her flattery words had the capability of influencing anyone in the palace, she becomes successful in making the PriceMinister on her side.

One night when she was in the king's room, sharing some private time with him she mixes poison in his drink. As soon as Sivang drinks that drink he began to tremble out of pain and was unable to utter a single word. The prime minister Sanga, Dravya, and Savya forcefully takes his finger marks and sign the paper in which the king had given the right to be the heir of the country to Dravya. Later that night they set the king cabin on fire and the news was spread that he died due to fire. The whole country falls into sorrows, this news gets spreads up to Levia, she was heartbroken by that incident, she was just beginning to get the love she deserved from the king and everything happened. She decided to return to her own country with her five sons thinking that the citizens might be waiting for their heirs but before she could manage to move for the journey back home another news spread of the king giving his position to his son Dravya.

Levia couldn't believe her ears, after everything she did to give the country a legitimate heir still Dravya was the one to take over the throne. The ground shook under her legs, still, she makes up her mind to fight to give her sons their right but her brother Bala who was the present king of Levia tells him to live there from then,

"What will you do there? No one is going to support you. Your son will be treated like slaves, if they would have concern for you and your sons they would have informed you before crowning that Dravya", Bala used to say. Somewhere Levia also thought that it would only give them heartbreak if they return to Dark clove because there was no one who actually cared for them there, the one who cared died and gave his throne to his first illegitimate son.

People in Dark cloves couldn't believe that their king could betray their trust by crowning Dravya instead of giving the crown to Tyler whom they had accepted as their king soon after his birth. But after the king, the power was on the prime minister, and the paper which had the king's signature also referred to that, Dravya was the one whom he wanted to see as his heir. The citizen could do nothing but wish to get their true heir back one day.

Levia gave up that time, but she was obdurate on the fact that one day her sons will go to their own country and fight for their rights. She from the very beginning began to influence them about their right and the throne. Tyler was very wise and obedient since his childhood and always used to say that, "If my father himself gave the throne to our big brother Dravya then we should respect his decision". He always used to follow the path of truth and was lawful.

Meanwhile, his brother Vigour who was aggressive in nature was so confident about his strength and abilities that he always used to talk about fighting Dravya and snatching their right, in this regard Allure, Gracious and Aven were also with him they all grew up on the circumstances when they always used to hear about how their father gave their right to his illegitimate son and how they have to fight for it. Tyler was the only one who used to control all four of them and teach them how war only brings tears.

Despite their difference, there was a very strong bond between them. If one used to fall down everyone else used to feel the pain. If one becomes hungry another one used to give their share of meals, they were really as the sage said one soul but in different bodies.
