48 Reunion

Walking out of the garden an into the throne room is group of a few thousand people that head towards the Beast King Alliance leaders.

Within this group is red eyed girl wearing a tight fitting black dress, as she heads straight for Emperor Shadowfang many in the group freeze up seeing the young girl. Stepping back in shock Shadowfang opends his hands to reveal the smooth fang that has left its mark in his palm, now moving forward towards the familiar face he stops in his tracks after he spots the person behind her nearly jumping at him. The ones who took his daughter away was this man's family they took her so long ago and the one who 'received' her as a gift was here in front of him now, looking at the Dragon Emperor with tears in his eyes he hears her speak to him but that is not the voice of his daughter so why does she resemble her so?

"Who are you? Why do you look so much like Sasha?" Rage and confusion twisted on his wolf like face as he begins to lose his human form.

"I am one of the Dragon Emperors new wives, Shana Underwood my mother was Sasha hello Grandfather."

The joy in the room quickly left as these words were exchanged between the two many of the Beast Kings knew that Sasha Fang died and her Fangs were sent along with her head to Emperor Fang after he personally interfered in the slave trading of hybrids who were kidnapped from their parents or sold off for profit. They took her after she attended a high class party that was hosted to better relations between the nearby Continents major powers, after ten years of being a slave they sent her remains to him as a reminder to stay out of their dealings but it only hardened his resolve to slaughter the smugglers and kidnappers. Now more than twenty years after he buried his beloved daughter he meets her child and the one she is with was her mother's captor he did not understand.

Seeing the confusion in his face Shana tries to explain but behind her the frail looking middle age man speaks up instead.

He explains that while in his youth he did have female slaves sent to him as gifts from his family and others who wanted to gain his favor, he has never treated any of the women as slaves or was harsh to them. He made them all into his attendants and maids to keep up the image his family and others expected of him, then one day Sasha was among a batch of hybrid slaves that was brought in recently. The Slave trader noticing him gaze at her quickly sent her over to him as a gift to improve his standing with the Zephy Family. During this time the two fell in love, as he never treated her as a slave and even tried to free her, she then saw a way to make the future that her father always wanted which was coexistence between the humans and beast before her so why should she not take this chance.

So she stayed with him Tyrion Zephy of the Zephy Family, during this time she helped him come up with various ideas to stop discrimination towards hybrids and beast who tried to join human society.

A few years later she gave birth to Shana who was her splitting image, not wanting her child to face any of the dangers that come along with her goals for equality she requested they send their daughter to the Beast Continent were her grandfather would protect her. But the commotion caused by her giving birth caused those in the Family who did not want Tyrion to become the next Family head to notice her, she then had the choice of hiding behind Tyrion for protection or hiding the fact that she was the one who gave birth and die so her child could remain hidden.

Soon those who opposed him in the Family seized her, after Tyrion used everything to protect her even saying he would give up his claim to become the Family Head if they sent his wife back to him. They only wished to see him suffer in regret for making the family ban slaves and join the fraction that the Silver Moon Family formed to help those of beast kind escape oppression.

His rivals then gave Sasha to those who hated Beast, before he could move to save her he had to insure his daughter would not be discovered by them this delay cost him his wife's life. He only recovered her headless body after destroying the entire Clan that took her as well as publicly executing those family members who sided against him as traitors to the Zephy Family, during this time he was crippled becoming a mortal without cultivation. This did not stop his rise as he still became the Zephy Family Head, as he groomed his daughter Shana to become the next head he revealed her origins of being a hybrid between him and Sasha his dead wife that he had buried in the Family burial grounds As Sasha Zephy.

Hearing the story many watch as the mighty Wolf Beast King Shadowfang drops to his knees crying out Sasha's name, moving over to comfort him Shana hugs her grandfather with all her might.

The Giant of a man Shadowfang later regained his composure his fire red eyes looking deep into the eyes of Tyrion, he grinds his black fangs together as he shakes his head when he sees the look Tyrion has.

....

Letting Shadowfang have his space as he reunites with his grandchild the others let them have a seperate table, as the three sit alone the silence in the room comes to an end as one of the Empresses.

"I am Valarie! Also one of the Emperor's new wives I will oversee the remainder of this meeting as I am sure you have all agreed to join our cause to unify this planet under the Banner of the Dragon Empire."

As Valarie took over the talks shifted from the Alliance between the 3 major powers to how they would each set up new laws that would be implemented in all three territories as well as the new names of the ruling bodies.

Blood Sun now the Dragon Empire the Beast Continent now the Beastia Nation and lastly Heavens Might became the Moon Empire, each of these powers were now allies that would help each other with military or economic problems. Empress Tia along with Dashnell and Samara handled most things from the Dragon Empire while the Silver Moon family elders also elected three of them to enter the talks and so did the Beastie Nation sending three representatives. One for Military, Economy and Governance as the nine people discussed the inner workings of the Alliance between the newfound Nations Shadowfang who represented the Military forces of the Beastia Nation questioned Tyrion from the Moon Empire about his health.

"I still have many things to discuss with you Tyrion about Sasha and I also wish to visit her grave so I would like you to come with me to the Beastia Nation so we can treat you, if you have not found a treatment in the Moon Empire you should have some hope with us." Said ShadowFang looking at the frail man who he now regards as his son.

Speaking up I tell Shadowfang that there is no need. "We have already planned to help him recover but he insisted that we delay his treatment until he met you, he wanted to aton for not being able to protect his wife that is why for the last 10 years he remained a cripple till this day. But seeing as you wish to save your son's life you should push him into the treatment that will give him back the ability to cultivate and live longer."

Shadowfang then glares at Tyrion who looks away from the intense stare of his new overprotective father with a smile on his face he says. "Don't worry after our meetings here today I will head over to receive treatment this was the deal I made with Shana. That if you forgave me for the loss of Sasha only then would I get treatment."

"You think I would accept that you just die of old age! I will work you hard in the years to come until we achieve Sasha's dying goal to create equality among the humans and beast. So as my Son I will not allow you to die, Sasha would not wish for me to dye my hands in your blood you are not the enemy she fought against, so yes I forgive you we have both lost her and in your eyes I can see the version of myself when I lost her mother." Saying no more Shadowfang rejoins the talks with Tia about the Military moving against Bright Star and the Sacred Rain Church that rule over the Rain Continent.

Unlike the other Continents controlled by many different powers the Church of Sacred Rain has complete control over the entire Rain Continent, the Church just like Heavens Might in the past treated those with the blood of the Beast harshly. The Church did not use its influence to suppress the Beast Continent they claimed that cleansing all Beast from the world is the only way to please their God, this was the only power that was always actively waring against the Beast Continent.

Sacred Rain was also the one who suggested that the only way to win against the Dragon Empire was to allow the Beast to be sent to their deaths, so with their main army is destroyed they could invade the Beast Contient removing the majority of beast from the world. Only then would their God aid them against the threat that is the Dragon Emperor.
