《The First Seraphim》 Chapter 1: The Phenomenon It was a natural phenomenon it was a bright and sunny day without a cloud in sight for miles and miles on end. But, there was a viscous thunder storm happening. Each flash of lightning was like a mini solar flare off in the distance but still bright enough to cause one to go blind for a few seconds if they stared in that direction. Many of the surrounding villages were scared senseless because in the very direction was the capital citadel and royal palace of the Apollo kingdom. In the capital a great and joyful event was transpiring. The First Lady and Queen of the Kingdom of Apollo was having her first child. Inside the palace it seemed like a complete ruckus maids were running back and forth some were carried large basins full of water. Everyone was in a panic, especially thanks to the current storm there was quit the few times when a maid would be blinded and drop what he/she was carrying. Within the palace on the second floor there was a group of men varying from different ages and from the looks of it there are some of different races. Two of them hand ears that came to a point while another was rather short but his stature made him seem like a brute, especially with his style of beard that reached his stomach while braided. "Hahaha, your majesty you should really calm down. You have the best midwives available in this kingdom and the next! Hahaha, there''s no need to pace back and forth like this." This was said by one of the larger men who happened to be wearing a shiny set of silvery armor with a golden chain mail under. He was at least 2.5 meters tall and had muscles that could put any body builder to shame. This man was also very bronzed in skin tone that almost resembled a dark gold. He was bald on all sides of his head except the top where he sported a short Mohawk. Even though he couldn¡¯t be considered handsome a scar that ran across the right side of his face gave him a manly charm. The man pacing up and down the hall was a man adorned in purple and gold robes. He had slightly bronzed skin and a full head of hair almost as black as night. The only thing that showed otherwise was the many grey hairs mixed in with his. But to say the least he was still a very handsome man who had sharp facial features that gave him a very heroic demeanor. The King had stopped and turned to look at this behemoth of a man saying "How can I not be nervous! Marvin you were there during the last birthing process." "Aiii, you are right my liege that was truly a dark time to be in." With a deep sigh and a downcast look the behemoth man known as Marvin said. When looking around all the men had joined in with a sigh of their own some even shaking their heads as if they still didn''t want to believe what had happened some odd years ago. Then in the midst of the silence they heard screaming and moaning from the door they were standing in front of. Stolen content warning: this tale belongs on Royal Road. Report any occurrences elsewhere.The King hearing this instantly got overwhelmed with worry and poked his head into the room to assess the situation. And while poking his head into the door he whispered softly but loud enough for those to hear him. "My love is everything going w..." But halfway through speaking he was hit in the face with a very soft pillow. And then heard the blooded yell of a woman "Get the FUCK out of here before I gouge your eyes out you bastard! Ahhrrrghh!" She would be considered as a top class beauty in any other situation besides today. She had fair skin with long flowing blonde hair, eyes as blue as the oceans and lips as pink a cherry blossoms. Even the dumb could tell that her chest was full and well rounded just by looking at her although she was under a thick blanket. Truly worth going to war for but at that very moment when she was screaming at her husband ¡°the king¡±, her face was a deep red and she had a scowl on her face that would frighten children enough to give them nightmares, and when she spoke although her voice was beautiful to hear one could see the spit fly through the air! Removing his head from the room the King looking quite dejected turned to see a very slender feminine looking man trying to cover his mouth in order to not laugh "Keke, your majesty you must forgive my elder sister. You''ve been together for a while now so you know how she gets over things she likes." "Humph, I know how my wife gets, she really does turn into a ferocious beast when angered." --Back in the room-- "By the gods! My lady you really shouldn''t sit up like that and strain yourself, it can be bad for you and the child" a woman who was also rather tall said while returning the thrown pillow towards the back of the Queen This woman was actually the head maid and the queen¡¯s personal assistant. She had black hair wrapped into a bun and shiny black eyes that was hidden behind a pair of glasses and a very pretty face. But what was the most standout of this woman was her breast! They were the size of a human''s head and they looked as firm as could be. Still exhausted and panting heavily the Queen plopped backwards to rest on the refluffed pillow and wiped the spit away "Gilda you know that man should know better than to peep into the process of us women giving birth. But yet he still dares." "My lady even though that''s true you still went a bit overboard." Even if this little conversation seemed normal, the head maid was actually on her knees holding the left hand of the Queen and wiping by the sweat off her forehead. After hours of yelling and cursing the Queen finaly gave birth! "Congratulations my queen it''s a boy!" Chapter 2- Blind Swordsman? AN: So for those that are reading this i have bad news... I kinda got the new IPhone on Saturday and i was way to excited to remember that i had the first 15 or so chapters written out on my old phone. Thus i lost everything and must start over without the story seeming too rushed.

Without further ado i hope you enjoy and any advice on how to improve is always welcomed.
Out in the hall with the group of men. Our King had finally stopped pacing back and forth. Instead he had his up against the door to try to listen in on the voices inside. Marvin walking up behind the kind and in a hushed voice "Your Majesty can you hear anything" "Hmmm, not quit but..." In the middle of speaking the door swung wide open and one of the midwives approached the king smiling brightly "congratulations your majesty you have your first heir" """..........""" Everyone was completely silent for a few seconds and then """Wooooooo""" almost at the same time all the men started yelling and started praising the king "congratulations my liege" Marvin was the first to run up and hug the king like the bear he was. Everyone could see just how close these two were cause if anyone else tried to pull the same stunt like Marvin. It was in full jurisdiction for the king to lop off his hands for touching him without permission. While all celebrating with pats on the shoulder and back there was a very anger but weak voice that came from the room "You morons you didn''t do anything but stand outside. What are you praising him for?" While peeking into the room the Queen was leaning back holding the newly born child in her arms. The king instantly walked towards his wife staring at the bundle, arms open in order to try to pick him up. With the most serine face ever, the king had a smile from ear to ear as he looked at his first born son. But something was wrong! It was only a slight glance but the king noticed that when his child tried to open his eyes there was no irises. ¡°Hmm? That''s strange¡± but just to be sure the king reached down and tapped the child on his nose. He instantly became irritated and started flailing his arms and legs but when he opened his eyes the Kings heart almost stopped! Blind, his first heir was blind! ''No, no this can''t be! He can''t be blind! The gods truly despise me.'' The king was shouting in his mind and little did the king know he had an obvious frown on his face. When the maids saw this they all froze, especially the midwives. It was very common for nobles to punish the maids and midwives for a problem with their children but they could also be heavily rewarded if there was a perfect birth with no problems. This profession was a double edged sword, it''s a gamble with fate. There was one time when a midwife was rewarded the title of a Baroness and given a substantial amount of land. This was all due to the fact that the child was born with a rare body that granted affinity with four different attributes, one of them being metal which is very rare for humans. The tale has been stolen; if detected on Amazon, report the violation."Even with this major setback if he works hard, he could be like one of those wondering blind swordsman. Or even better a powerful wizard." It had seemed like an eternity for the maids until the king let out a long sigh and spoke. To them this was a blessing in disguise because it seemed they wouldn''t be put straight to death and might just get off with something superficial like 50 lashes or being expelled from the palace. "Why are you talking about my child becoming a blind vagabond?" The Queen once again spoke up. "Not a vagabond a swordsman, you know it''s very disrespectful calling them..." Cutting of the king mid speech "I don''t care who I disrespect. Don''t call me child blind!" "Have you not looked at his eyes woman? There''s no color, no pupils how can he possibly see? Huh care to explain?" At this moment the king snapped and yelled. Even though he is used to his wife''s back talking and smart remarks since they''ve been together for so long, this wasn''t a joking matter. All fathers want their kids to be born completely healthy and grow strong. Especially when said child would grow to become the leader of a kingdom that housed millions. Although it''s possible to still become a great ruler or warrior. There will be various setbacks and difficulties due to having to have people conform to your needs and finding a very trustworthy advisor that wouldn''t lie or get you to sign over all your assets. Which is near impossible. At this moment Gilda stepped up and bowed while speaking "My lord I apologize for being outspoken at this moment, but my lady just gave birth not too long ago and she and the child need rest so I beseech you that your majesty doesn''t yell. Also your majesty we would have informed you earlier if there was anything wrong with the child but if you look more carefully you''ll notice that the young master indeed can see. As for the color of his eyes for some reason his irises are a pale silver, as for his pupils they too are a pale white so the blend in." The king silently glared at Gilda he knew she meant well but as a king no servant should speak up to prove him wrong even if they were bowing their head. "Then why wasn''t he opening his eyes?" Still bowing "You majesty the young master was just trying to sleep."
