The Shikava Kingdom
Introduction:
In the ancient time of the Shikava Kingdom, magic flowed freely through the land. Many magical girls with immense powers helped the Shikava Kingdom flourish and keep its people safe and happy. The kingdom, ruled by King Mokyava, was known for its wealth and peace. The people were content, and the land was prosperous.
Among the magical girls, one stood out—Akasiya, with her striking beauty of black, white, and blue mixed hair, pearl-like eyes, and a kind heart. The young prince of Shikava, Kiyok, had fallen deeply in love with Akasiya, and they were married with the king’s blessing. But soon, Kiyok's true intentions were revealed. Kiyok sought the power of the magical girls, especially Akasiya’s. He discovered that to gain her power, he needed to remove a special ring from her finger and wear it himself.
One night, Kiyok managed to trick Akasiya and took the ring from her hand. Once the ring was his, he combined her power with his own, becoming stronger than ever. Driven by greed, he began hunting down the other magical girls to steal their rings and gain their powers. King Mokyava disapproved, but Kiyok, now consumed by ambition, imprisoned his father and began to rule the kingdom with an iron fist.
But one magical girl escaped—Akasiya. To save herself, she turned into a human, knowing that once transformed, she could never return to her magical state unless she received love from a pure heart. She wandered the land as a beautiful human woman, hiding from Kiyok's wrath.
Story Begins:
Years passed, and Kiyok's sister gave birth to a child named Lakava. Though Kiyok had no children of his own, he loved Lakava as if he were his son and trained him from a young age to be a powerful warrior. Despite his training, Lakava was kind-hearted, treating everyone in the kingdom with respect and love. The people adored him, but he carried a mysterious mark on his hand—a mark that no one could explain.
One day, while traveling across Shikava, Lakava stumbled upon a breathtaking woman by the riverbank. She had a mark on her hand that mirrored his own. Intrigued, Lakava tried to approach her, but she disappeared before he could reach her. Determined to meet her, he began visiting the riverbank every day, hoping to find her again.
After many days of waiting, the woman finally returned. Lakava, using his secret power of invisibility, watched her from a distance. But as she began to undress for a bath, Lakava panicked and revealed himself, shouting, “No, wait! I’m here!”
Startled, the woman turned and saw the mark on his hand. “The mark of a warrior,” she whispered, her voice filled with surprise.
Lakava, confused, asked, “What did you just say? What do you know about this mark?”
The woman, who was Akasiya in her human form, began to tell him the ancient story of the Shikava kingdom, the magical girls, and how the land was once peaceful. She spoke of the betrayal by Prince Kiyok and how the magical girls were hunted down. However, she kept her own identity a secret, not revealing that she was one of the last magical girls.
Lakava, captivated by the story and her beauty, pressed her for more answers about her past and the mark on his hand, but Akasiya refused to say more.
Later, Lakava, still troubled by the conversation, made the mistake of telling his uncle, Prince Kiyok, about the mysterious woman. Enraged, Kiyok immediately recognized the connection and ordered his soldiers to capture her. He knew that Akasiya had escaped him once, and now he wanted her back to finish what he started.
Despite the soldiers’ efforts, Akasiya managed to elude them, using her agility and knowledge of the land. But Kiyok, determined and filled with anger, decided to take matters into his own hands. He tracked her down to the riverbank where they first met. There, a fierce battle began between Kiyok and Akasiya.
Kiyok, wielding a powerful sword infused with the magic of the stolen rings, attacked with dark energy and lightning-fast strikes. Akasiya, though no longer a magical girl, relied on her speed and agility to dodge his attacks. The fight was intense, with Kiyok summoning bursts of fire, waves of ice, and storms of wind to try to overpower her. Akasiya countered with flips, rolls, and graceful movements, avoiding each blow with ease.
But as a human, she had no magical powers left. Kiyok, growing impatient, used a special spell that bound her in chains of magical energy. Akasiya fell to the ground, helpless, as Kiyok prepared to deliver the final blow.
Unbeknownst to Kiyok, Lakava had followed them, using his invisibility to watch the battle. Horrified by what he saw, Lakava intervened, rushing forward to save Akasiya. But Kiyok, sensing Lakava’s presence, turned his fury on him. The two warriors engaged in a battle unlike any the kingdom had ever seen.
Kiyok unleashed his full power, sending waves of dark magic towards Lakava. Lakava, though skilled, was no match for the immense power his uncle had stolen from the magical girls. Every strike from Kiyok pushed Lakava back, and soon, it seemed like all hope was lost.
But in a desperate moment, as Akasiya lay wounded on the ground, something miraculous happened. A single tear from Lakava’s eyes fell onto her hand, landing on the mark they both shared. The blood from Akasiya’s wound mixed with the tear, and suddenly, the marks on both of their hands began to glow.
A surge of power flowed through Lakava. The spirits of the magical girls who had died at Kiyok’s hands began to awaken. Akasiya, now reborn as the magical girl she once was, rose from the ground, her power fully restored. Together, Lakava and Akasiya stood against Kiyok, their combined strength overwhelming him.
Kiyok, realizing he was losing, unleashed a final, devastating attack, channeling all the stolen magic he had gathered. But Lakava, now empowered by the love and strength of the magical girls, deflected the attack, sending the dark energy back at Kiyok.
In his last moments, Kiyok screamed in agony as the power consumed him, his body disintegrating into ashes. The battle was over. The kingdom was free.
Lakava, now the rightful ruler of Shikava, freed all the imprisoned kings and restored peace to the land. With Akasiya by his side, he used the rings of the magical girls to bring them back to life, and together they blessed Lakava with more power than any king had ever possessed.
From that day forward, Lakava became known as Lakava, the Blessed Warrior, a king loved by all, ruling with kindness, wisdom, and the power of the magical girls. Under his reign, Shikava once again became a land of peace and prosperity.
