Chapter 11 - The Founding Legend Of the Empire - Part 2

Sir Albert continued, " The king cleared the miasma on the day of the Red moon. Hence, Red became the color of his kingdom while white became the color of the Goddess Serania, who blessed him. During his rule, he got a prophecy from the Goddess that his Sixth descendant would expand his kingdom into a large Empire. Just as it said, the mighty Emperor, Igor von Visden was the sixth king. He expanded the Kingdom of Visden into Visden Empire. He defeated Kiburg Empire on a Red Moon Night and was hailed as a great hero. He brought in several policies, including the one concerning the middle names. He also made a law that, 'Only the Imperials having Amber eyes and divine powers may ascend the throne.' Hence, having divine powers became a basic requirement to ascend the throne."

Little Alicia asked, "What was the Emperor's Divine Power?"

Sir Albert replied, " Though his powers were not as grand as the First King's, his powers were formidable. He had the powers of Great Healing."

Alicia asked, "What is Great healing?"

Sir Albert replied, " The power, which can resurrect a whole limb or organ, is called The Great Healing. But it also had its limitations. The Emperor would be unconscious for a whole month if he used his powers to regenerate a limb. During the rule of the Sixth Emperor, he received a prophecy that said his future descendants would have both his and the First King's powers and be able to use them without limitations. But only one of them would survive and become the First Empress of the Empire. But there was not a single princess with those exceptional powers, and the Empire's yet to throne its first Empress."

 Little Alicia, confused, asked, " Didn't the prophecy give a timeline just like last time?"

Sir Albert replied, "No, Princess. Thus, it is still a mystery which princesses would gain those powers."
