The Sins of the Past

"Dark secrets are called 'dark' for a reason..."

Part I: Desperate Measures
''Early in the war between the Black and White kingdoms, the war had reached a stalemate on multiple fronts. Both armies fought for every inch of ground they could, but whatever they gained, it was lost the following day. Both sides were looking for a way to break this stalemate. Weapons were sent out to the lines at a prodigous rate, continuing to feed the ever growing stalemate on both sides. ''

''Then, in one dramatic clash later on in the war, the Black Kingdom's forces were sent into a massive retreat,  and the casualties for both sides were staggering. However, the Black Kingdom could not sustain casualties of that scale for much longer. Desperate for a solution, the king of the Black Kingdom asked weaponsmiths to create a weapon that would turn the tide in their favor. The weapons makers, desperate to see their side win as much as the king did, started  research on a weapon that could inflict massive casualties upon the White Kingdom. ''

''The result of the research was a weapon of untold destructive power, a weapon that the researchers proclaimed would bring the White Kingdom to its knees. However, before the weapon could be unleashed, the Black Kingdom started using basic means of harnessing magic for their cause. With that, the project was abandoned and the weapon was relegated to the dustbin of history. ''

Or so it was thought...

Part II: The Triumph of Good?
The prisoner transport rattled as it ran over the streets of towards the Black Kingdom's military detention facility. The people inside felt bittersweet. They had caught the terrorist resposible for the loss of many lives and a large loss of military assests at during the masked man's campaign of terror.

The prisoner, on the otherhand, remained defiant. In fact, the man was in high spirits despite the fact that he was captured. No one knew he had a plan up his sleeve, that he had wanted to be captured. He had some secrets that the Black Kingdom wanted very much kept secret, but this man was willing to do anything to let it out.

One of the guards looked at the man, who gave a light chuckle.

"What's so funny, you prick? You're gonna rot for what you did."

The man in the mask merely laughed again. "Really, I'm going to rot in a cell? You have no idea what your leaders will learn from me"  the man said, voice laced with quiet menace. With that, the guard kept his mouth shut, the rest of the trip going along in silence. The guards silently wondered if they had really triumphed, or was this to be another victory for the man in the mask?
