Northern Empire is a giant empire located at the south of the Fluone Desert area. It developed independently at the south of the once whole Elrios continent during the period before the El's explosion without any particular exchanges with the Elrian Kingdom. This was possible because of giant El's influence and the powers of native Spiritual Beasts that dwelled in this region. El's influence made each year’s harvest bountiful and Spiritual Beasts protected the people that treated them sacredly and followed them from invaders. But not all native Spiritual Beasts were good and benevolent. Amongst them, there were Spiritual Beasts that only acted out of their own gain regardless of human standards of good and evil. Nine Tailed Fox 'Eun' was one of those Spiritual Beasts. 'Eun' destroyed many towns in order to seize human souls but she was finally 'sealed' by a warrior from the Haan family. After that, Haan family became a martial artist family that protected the seal of the Nine Tailed Fox 'Eun'. Haan family's power was marginal. There was nothing Haan family had to show for themselves except for protecting the seal of the Nine Tailed Fox 'Eun'. Then one day, the moon El flew into Haan family's territory. It was because of the great El explosion. Haan family became able to wield the power of the moon El and gained reputation as fierce warriors in the Northern Region. Other families in the capital weren’t too pleased by Haan family's achievements. They tried to quell Haan family’s power by coming up with a likely excuse of imposing a law that appointed eldest son of the family to a position of 'capital's guard captain'. Elder brother Aren was eldest son of the Haan family. Elder brother and I were destined to part with each other ever since we were young.

My mother was 2nd wife of my father. Father fell in love with mother at first sight after seeing her jump in front of a running carriage without any regards for herself in order to save an old woman from harm. Father immediately visited mother's home the next day and proposed to her. Father didn't give up easily despite mother's refusal. He tenaciously and sincerely protected mother's side at all time and mother finally accepted his proposal after recognizing his righteous character. Two got along harmoniously as much as the difficulty they had in becoming together. They were always together and held each other very dearly. But my other siblings didn't seem too pleased about mother and me being in the Haan family. Siblings treated mother rudely and teased me out of sight of the adults. Mother had a soft-hearted personality and was always worried if her actions might hurt the feelings of other siblings. Because of my mother's personality, I tried my best to not to talk about other siblings teasing me to her. I thought that I had to become more courteous and perfect child in every way so that other siblings couldn't find any faults to tease me with. Only one who treated me equally as their sibling was Elder Brother Aren. He was the prop of the household who was loved by the entire Haan family. He acted courteously towards everyone and didn't discriminate me like the other siblings. The more Elder Brother Aren treated me kindly, the other siblings teased me even more but I could withstand them. I could stay strong and withstand them because there was someone who trusted me and treated me dearly.

Ara: (An opening!) Children of the Haan family were required to master martial arts. This was because they were born with the duty of protecting the seal of the Nine Tailed Fox 'Eun'. Ever since we were able to walk, me and my siblings learned from our martial arts instructor how to handle weapons and how to control the power of the moon El. I wasn't particularly good at other things but was confident at least in my spear skills. But… Female Sibling: That kind of lame attack won't work! Ara: Ah….! Sparring with other siblings was difficult. Today's training session was sparring with spears that I was confident in, but the result was my defeat as always. Martial arts instructor: Stop, it's Ara's defeat. At our instructor's shout, I got up while hitting the dust off my back and stood in front of third oldest sister. Martial arts instructor: Ara, your bold attack was fine but you leave too many openings. Your movements were quite good during practice but your body freezes every time during sparring…. I offered a handshake as a sign of saying good match but Third Sister picked up her weapon and walked past me. Ara: …. Martial arts instructor: Always think about your own movements as well. Your strong point is your flexible movements so you'll certainly be able to perform better if you throw away your burdens a bit. Why don't you try one more time? Instructor smiled kindly then looked at second oldest brother. Second Brother confidently nodded as he raised his spear. Ara: …. Okay. I'll try one more time. Instructor gave the signal with a gladness in his voice. I corrected my stance as I stepped far away from Second Brother. Ara: (Always think about my own movements….) I had to think about not just my opponent's movements, but my own movements as well. Read the enemy's moves and break through their opening to land a finishing blow. The image I drew in my head was close to perfect but my body didn't move according to my thoughts. Ara: (Throw away my burdens…. How am I supposed to throw it away….?) I barely blocked the spear that approached my head then ran away to create some distance. Second Brother must have not liked me just running away because he ran straight after me as he swung his spear aggressively. Ara: (I shouldn't let myself be beaten by such an obvious attack. I have to dodge the spear with least movements as possible.) I parried the attack by only moving my spear slightly then didn't hesitate to go on the offensive right away. Second Brother easily lowered his spear to block my attack. Ara: (Don't think about anything else. Just focus on the battle in front of me.) I distanced myself far away again as I held my spear with only one hand. Second Brother was running in straightly again and was swinging his spear much more widely this time. Ara: (Now!) I jumped up high to dodge Second Brother's spear and landed behind his back. The moment I was turning around to sweep across his defenseless leg, my hand stopped for some unknown reason. Male Sibling: Heh, what an idiot! Second Brother immediately turned around to land a finishing blow on me. Martial arts instructor: Stop… it's Ara's defeat. I couldn't look straightly into instructor's disappointed face shaking his head left and right that I turned around on the spot and left the training gym. I could hear other siblings mocking me from far away. I will certainly get scolded by instructor for my disrespectful behavior but I couldn't go back. I was always a loser in this place.
