"Our kingdom is suffering the effects of the arrival of Arkemis, that entity has proven to be unstoppable, even we the most powerful are affected by his interference. I can't believe it arrived just at this moment when we were about to conquer all the land of Pretoria".

These words said Arius with a tone of complaint and lamentation, Prince Julian, one of the few who was at the same level as him, heard him without complaining, after a silence he said: "The arrival of Arkemis was inevitable, for a long time I have been studying his movements and I am sure that his actions are only based on bringing balance to the entire Praetorian universe. The only thing that has me surprised is how he knew about our location, only a few know it, would it be that despicable woman who gave it to him or would he arrive here by his own merit?

Lux Vega... pronounced Arius, after that he continued, "I don't think it was her, maybe Arkemis has a power and knowledge beyond what we know, the day he entered this kingdom I couldn't arrive in time to stop him, when I entered the core it had already been devastated, I tried to restore it but his magical power prevents me, we will just have to wait for it to restore itself."

Prince Julian nodded, and suggested that they start with the conquest in a progressive way, for that they would send a few troops to measure the power of the other kingdoms, Arius agreed, after that both went where the legendary Shin-Lo was, a beast feared by the whole empire. Only Arius, Julian and a few others approached Shin, his power to devastate everything in his path was well known, and in the most ancient texts he was named as the mythical dragon, a legend for those who did not know him but a grim reality for those who witnessed him in the ancestral war.

When they arrived at the place where he was, they invoked him, Shin-lo appeared and spoke to them saying: "Arius, Julian, why do you dare disturb my rest?" Arius answered: "Hello old friend, the time has come for us to begin our conquest, for that we need your power, that is why we have come here".

Shin-lo told them, "My power is too great to conquer, I will descend only when necessary, now go, I will continue to rest."

Arius and Julian left, they both knew that they should not bother Shin-lo trying to change his mind. Because of that they decided to call several of their troops. Gloridax Magus, Selena Sky and the royal dragon archers were the ones chosen for the initial attack. The orders were clear and precise, they were to test the power of the kingdoms and leave them a clear message of superiority, after they did so they could return.

Once they left, Prince Julian summoned all the people of the empire to make a public speech. When the time came, the crowd was a little impatient, since every time a royal speech was summoned it brought significant changes to the population, but what Julian would tell them on this occasion would take them by surprise, although they received it with great enthusiasm once they heard it.

Julian stood in front of everyone from the royal box, and signaled silence with his hand, he told them the following: "Our kingdom has always enjoyed tranquility, our resources have reached for the entire population, however given the sudden intrusion of Arkemis our core has been affected, which brings several important consequences, including the reduction of resources. In the ancient books we are shown how through power and conquest we have what your eyes see today, peace and freedom. But now we find ourselves in the need to defend our empire, so the time has come to descend to the land of Pretoria and conquer it, for if we do not we could suffer an attack later, so we will take the first step...in the ancient scriptures we are shown how the dragon empire prevails over all others, so it is time for us to take our place as the kings of the entire Praetorian universe!

The people upon hearing these words were filled with jubilation and began to shout: Long live Prince Julian, long live the Dragon Empire!

Meanwhile in the praetorian world tranquility was about to disappear, because to the astonishment of all who watched them, three warriors and an army of dragons adorned the sky ready for battle.

“Nuestro reino está padeciendo los efectos de la llegada de Arkemis, esa entidad ha demostrado ser imparable, inclusive nosotros los más poderosos nos vemos afectados por su intromisión. No puedo creer que llegara justo en este instante donde estábamos por conquistar toda la tierra de Pretoria”.

Estas palabras decía Arius con un tono de queja y lamento, el Príncipe Julián, uno de los pocos que estaba al mismo nivel que él, le oía sin rechistar, luego de un silencio le dijo: “La llegada de Arkemis era inevitable, desde hace mucho he estado estudiando sus movimientos y estoy seguro que sus acciones solo se basan en traer equilibrio a todo el universo pretoriano. Lo único que me tiene sorprendido es como supo de nuestra ubicación, solo unos pocos lo saben, ¿sería esa mujer despreciable quien se la dio o llegaría aquí por mérito propio?

Lux Vega… pronuncio Arius, luego de eso prosiguió: “No creo que haya sido ella, quizás Arkemis tenga un poder y conocimiento más allá de lo que nosotros sabemos, el día que entro a este reino no pude llegar a tiempo para detenerlo, cuando ingrese al núcleo ya había sido devastado, trate de restaurarlo pero su poder mágico me lo impide, solo habrá que esperar que se restaure por sí mismo.”

El príncipe Julián asintió, y sugirió que comenzaran con la conquista de manera progresiva, para ello enviarían unas pocas tropas para medir el poder de los demás reinos, Arius estuvo de acuerdo, luego de eso ambos fueron donde estaba el legendario Shin-Lo, una bestia temida por todo el imperio. Solo Arius, Julián y otros pocos se acercaban a Shin, su poder para devastar todo a su paso era bien conocido, y en los textos más antiguos le nombraban como el mítico dragón, una leyenda para quienes no le conocían pero una realidad sombría para quienes lo presenciaron en la guerra ancestral.

Al llegar al lugar donde se encontraba le invocaron, Shin-lo apareció y les hablo diciendo: “Arius, Julián, ¿porque osan perturbar mi descanso?” Arius respondió: “Hola viejo amigo, el tiempo ha llegado para que comencemos nuestra conquista, para eso necesitamos de tu poder, por eso hemos venido hasta aquí”.

Shin-lo les dijo: “Mi poder es demasiado grande para conquistar, descenderé solo cuando sea necesario, ahora váyanse, seguiré descansando.”

Arius y Julián salieron, ambos sabían que no debían molestar a Shin-lo tratando que cambiara de opinión. Debido a eso decidieron llamar a varias de sus tropas. Gloridax Magus, Selena Sky y los arqueros dragón reales fueron los escogidos para el ataque inicial. Las órdenes fueron claras y precisas, debían probar el poder de los reinos y dejarles un mensaje claro de superioridad, luego de que lo hicieran podrían regresar.

Una vez salieron, el príncipe Julián convoco a todo el pueblo del imperio para hacer un discurso público. Llegado el momento la multitud estaba un poco impaciente, ya que cada vez que se convocaba un discurso real traía cambios significativos a la población, pero lo que Julián les diría en esta oportunidad los tomaría por sorpresa, aunque lo recibieron con mucha algarabía una vez lo escucharon.

Julián se paró frente a todos desde el palco real, y hecha señal de silencio con su mano, les dijo lo siguiente: “Nuestro reino siempre ha gozado de tranquilidad, nuestros recursos han alcanzado para toda la población, sin embargo dada la intromisión repentina de Arkemis nuestro núcleo ha sido afectado, lo cual trae varias consecuencias importantes, entre ellas la reducción de los recursos. En los libros antiguos se nos muestra como a traves del poder y la conquista tenemos lo que sus ojos ven el día de hoy, paz y libertad. Pero ahora nos vemos en la necesidad de defender nuestro imperio, por lo que ha llegado el momento de descender a la tierra de Pretoria y conquistarla, ya que si no lo hacemos podríamos sufrir un ataque más adelante, asi que nosotros daremos el primer paso…en las escrituras antiguas se nos muestra como el imperio dragón prevalece por sobre los demás, ¡asi que es tiempo de que tomemos nuestro lugar como los reyes de todo el universo pretoriano!

El pueblo al oír estas palabras se lleno de júbilo y comenzaron a dar voces: ¡Viva el Príncipe Julián, viva el imperio Dragón!

Mientras tanto en el mundo pretoriano la tranquilidad estaba por desaparecer, pues ante el asombro de todos los que les observaban, tres guerreros y un ejército de dragones adornaban el cielo listos para la batalla.
