Lord Shadow

ISLAND OF PEACE

The waves are calm and the clouds are moving gently pushed by the breezy winds. Floating over the waves is a large island floating only inches above the wave.

There is only one floating island that is that large and possess such weird ability to float above the waves in the world.

The Island of Peace, the headquarters of the World Government.

The Island of Peace today is very busy. On the North Side of the Island of Peace, there is a turtle waiting.

On the south side, there is a spaceship with the crest of a lotus.

All over the island there is many things that would attract the attention of the people all with the crest that everyone who did not live under a rock for the past few years would recognize.

And the entire Island is in high alert, the formation was lifted up as translucent golden dome covers the entire Island.

Today, a conference meeting between the Great World Power was held in the Island of Peace and that is why there is all of this protection measure.

They all have arrived and the Island is all in a tense mood.

In the conference room of the meeting, everyone is determined to give their input of what they should do and what they have seen and done.

And of course all of this matter would surely be related to “that person”. The room is dimly lit and everyone face is hard to see.

Maybe that is why the room is dimly lit. They don’t want their expression to be so easy to read.

Well, when one thinks of it, considering their abilities, it is not hard for them to see clearly even in the dark.

But, it is equally hard to discern someone mood and feeling through their expression when all of them have so many abilities.

Since that is the case, the dimly lit room is maybe just for the ambience for the occasion that they are about to speak.

Dark words whispered in the darkness.

There are seven seats inside the conference room surrounding a large round table. Each of the seven seats represent the seven powers of the world.

Each of the seat have its own distinct design and whoever saw it would know which it belongs to with a simple glance

One of the seat is designed with a lotus carving and resembled a lotus flower, looking elegant and beautiful.

There is also a certain force around the seat that seems to calm one mind. If no one is sitting on the seat, it is surrounded by a fog that is naturally created by the surrounding.

It is called the golden lotus seat. This seat could only belong to the Lotus Order that was tasked with the pacification of Asia. Sitting on that chair is Emperor Feng Jing of Wei.

He looks around the room and his eyes narrowed when he saw someone. He is coming here because of the summon of other people.

In truth, he did not want to get mired in this conflict. But he also knows that he had to answer the call.

He just wishes to get this over it and he is slightly anxious right now because he knows who is up for a discussion this time

There is a lot of topic the great powers had talked about in their meeting. But none make him so anxious as today

He had a lot to worry about right now at home. There is a disease that is going on in his continent right now.

And he knows who is doing it. What he didn’t know is why is that person doing it. That is why his eyes narrowed when he saw Hirate.

He knew he had to find an opportunity to talk with Hirate without arousing the suspicion of the other great powers.

He did not want to be alienated by the other three great power if he is accused of colluding with one of the Three Giants.

He sighed and he knew he had to wait for the opportune moment

There is another seat in the room with a lot of stripped line design carved on the seat. There is fifty-four striped line carved onto the chair

This chair belongs to the African Alliance. The fifty-four stripped line represent the fifty-four leaders of the Alliance.

Out of the other great powers, the African Alliance was one of the fastest of the four great power to ensure stability and peace all across the African continent.

The reason is because of the delegation of power and responsibility to each of its allied member

But because of the large piece of pie that they have to share with each other, it is also the only one among the other great powers that have severe internal dispute with each other.

Sitting on that seat is Nehanda Nunurai, the representatives of the Shona and one of the leading voices in the African Alliance

Nunurai also scanned the room and it is clear that today he came with a purpose. Out of the seven great power, it appears like the African Alliance did not do much in the progress of humanity.

But for the past of couple of years they have played an active role in nurturing great talents of humanity and have done a lot more progress when they discovered a metal mine that is unique in the world.

The metal mine that they found in the African continent is different than the other metal mine around the world.

The difference lies in the fact that the metal absorbed the energy of the Heaven and Earth and could be crafted into an artifact.

The African Alliance supplied almost half of the new metal to all over the world.

It is the same metal that is used to construct the iris of the Eye of Heaven that belong to the Order of Thinkers.

They also tried to remove the influence of the Republic and the World Government in their continent but it is not as easy as they would like to.

The World Government still had a strong presence in many regions in Africa and the Republic sometime supply the militant group that is resisting the African Alliance

It is understandable then why Nehanda Nunurai look at Hirate with a bit of hostility.

Then there is the seat carved with a fixture of an all-seeing eye and a carving of a goddess.

This seat belongs to the Order of Thinkers and that eye refers to one of the most powerful man made artifact, the Eye of Heaven.

The goddess image that is carved onto the seat is the Goddess Aletheia, the Goddess of Truth in Greek mythology and is known to be one of the important motif and symbols in the Order of Thinkers

Sitting on that seat is none other than Eric Strauss, one of the members of the Order of Thinkers

The Grand Researcher did not come this time as she would always never come to this gathering, more content to sit inside her Observatory.

Then there is the chair with a carving of a turtle.

This is none other than the seat that belongs to the League of Freedom and sitting on that seat is that bandaged person which shows only his eyes and mouth, Narleod the leader of the League of Freedom

Every once in a while, his gaze would look toward the man in that large seat, flashing with hatred.

And then there is three largest seat. These three large seat is different from the other four seats. From it sizes and to its meaning, it was entirely different

These three seats are more accurately be described as royal thrones
