*''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.''

*''There were multiple families that worshipped Spiritual Beasts in the Northern Empire. Our Haan family was technically protecting the seal of 'Eun' so it was hard to say we were worshiping a Spiritual Beast, but we also attended meetings among those families nevertheless. Festival that was held every 5 years was one of those meetings. Families that worshiped Spiritual Beasts gathered in the capital every 5 years and held a festival that promoted friendship with each other. Although it was a festival, in actuality, it was a place for Northern Empire's emperor who was afraid of powers of each of the families to keep an eye out for dangerous or questionable individuals. Since it was a place where heads of all families, their wives and their direct children gathered, there was no better place for emperor to gather information. Participating families taught their family members to be cautious of their actions in festivals when emperor was present. They all told their family members in unison that if you are in a place where emperor's eyes could reach, it was best to not stand out so no matter what happens you should just 'stay put'. Do we have to stay put even if a Spiritual Beast like 'Eun' starts running amok? At my question, elders laughed and answered that I should. I got a feeling that emperor and the elders were both just cowards but nodded and told them that I understood. But I was just as much of a big coward as them. Highlight of the festival was martial arts sparring contest. It took place on the last day after couple days of joyous festivities. All unmarried children of each family participated and a family with only their children remaining at the end was determined victorious.''
