Guard Prolog

There has been a war going on for 1,300 years between 5 of the largest nations in the world. They are of the four compass directions, and center where beast live. Each nation is governed by a king, and the center is lead by dragons with power over all the beast. There is no magic, but the was causes many to be skilled with weapons and combat. Technology is at high metal usage in things, and almost everyone has a sword and is trained to use it. The royal family of each nation has many children, sometimes almost over 100. Assassinations are very common for the royal family. There is one thing this world does have, and it is ki control. Ki control allows a person to shift their strength to a part of their body. If they can life 50 down with either arm, the can control the ki to one arm and lift 100 down. Ki can be projected outside the body, but not very much, usually less than an inch, but in sever cases it can be the difference between walking away like nothing happened, or dying from an arrow to the neck. This story will follow Brutus as he is taken to the worst off nation of the 5, north. In the north, it is always raining and the crops do not grow well. Their population is the lowest, and there resources the worst. From a line of 86 descendants, there are currently 5 left after the death of the king. The 8th Prince, the 26th Prince, the 3rd Princess, the 17th Princess, and the 42nd Princess. Thus, the 8th Prince has become king, and now the protection of the other descendants has become less important, and the new king will start producing children in a few months.
