Tetsuya was born to the wealthy and famous Kuroriku clan. However, out of the six Houses of the Kuroriku, he was born to the infamous second branch which lacks the resources of the main, and other branches. They don't even have the privilege of having their own name to differentiate them from the main household. After living in the countryside for most of his life, this plain college boy is invited to the royal palace.Excited at first to meet the king, Tetsuya soon finds out that the kingdom will require more of him than a hand to till the soil. He is to become one of the five knights. His weapon? A shield. His duty? To protect the kingdom from the umber forces that threaten to destroy it. Yet, the more he sees and hears, the more he begins to ponder if the true darkness isn't within the castle walls themselves... A tale filled with mystery and political intrigue."

"So bored, " I say, putting my head down on our wooden table. I stare as water drips down from my short black hair.
"It won't stop pouring, " my younger sister adds, copying me. She ruffles her curly light brown hair, trying to get the water out.
"Let's see if we can fix that, " Mom says, wiping her slim hands against her apron.
I bolt up. "Tell us the story of the Five Knights!"
Father, who is seated across from me, chuckles. "Aren't you too old for such stories."
I pout. "I'm nine! That's not too old..." I look down at the table. "Is it?"
He reaches over the table, ruffling my short black hair. "Aww, don't worry about it kiddo." He smiles. "Maybe listening to it will help you avoid the mistakes that befell the Knight of the Shield."
"Mistakes?"
The floor shrieks as he pushes his chair back to stand up. "Tell the kid the full story."
Mother bites her lip. "Alright. I'll do so, if that's what you want."
Father walks over and kisses her on the lips, causing my sister and me to hide our faces in embarrassment. "You shouldn't be too obedient, that's your mistake."
Mother's face flushes. "Yes. Wait, no. Uh..."
He laughs and stretches his muscular arms into the air. "Meanwhile you tell the kiddos the full story, I'm going to go take a nap."
The full story... just what is it? What have I not learned about the man who shielded this world with his life?
I turn to look at mom as she clears her throat. "Alright, let's begin. This tale is a recent one... It all began when...
I lean in, my ears ready for new info to the legend of the Knight of the Holy Shield. Though, perhaps my mind and heart aren't ready...
