Hallo, Krieg here. This is my first post to "SoFurry" and I have to admit I am rather excited! :3 Just a little note, this is my work, please do not copy it as that would make me angry, and you don't want to see me angry... I MAKE JOKE! :D But seriously, no copying and this story does get violent and blood and cursing and eventual yiff so all you puppies might want to stay away! But for the rest of you, let me take you to another world, a world where war is as common as Tea Time...

A Prelude:

Hallo, this is how we great each other. If you are reading this, most likely you are some sort of sentient, thinking creature. My name is Kiro Von Dorchester, Prinz or Prince of the Greater Wolfish Empire. I am leaving these notes in the event of total destruction of my world, Fury. I will provide what information I can on my world, and on my life and its intriguing adventure. I will have to write this in the most common language I know, English, although I am more familiar with the Imperial language. If I do switch back and forth from time to time please forgive my rude insult. None the less, let's delve into the story shall we?

Ah Fury, its lands are as rash as its name. The skies once a glorious blue, reddened with the glow of fire. Its lush green and cool lands, scorched black with the scares of battle. The crisp green and blue oceans, tainted with the bodies of the fallen. Many of us have come to believe that whoever did create our little planet did so out of pure amusement and spectacle. War always finds us, and we always find it and sometimes it makes for quite the show.

The Fox of Dakota are the free peoples, too busy with their money to care about the staple hood of the rest of the world. The Cats of Angeland, the working peoples, almost all poor, their funds drained by their corrupt mining government. The Bears on the north, barbaric and tribal, too interested in their god to make peace, they will sever your paw before they make amends with you. The Tigers of Crass, the desert lands, they are too fascinated with their loyalty to their sun god to bother with talks of treaties, and I thank they are on our side. That leaves us one, Die Größere Wolfish Riech. The largest and most powerful of all the countries, the wolves are fierce and unrelenting. During the war with the elves, the rest of the countries had failed and were on the brink of extinction, but the wolves knew how to survive, they didn't need weapons. The Wolfish Kingdom cut the elves with their bare paws, and drove them back into the sea. On the ruined elfish lands the wolves built a new country, the Greater Wolfish Empire, lead by my unofficial father Kaiser Dietrich Von Dorchester V. In the short time of 56 years they worked and built what was the most powerful empire in the world. Any and all who opposed them were instantly destroyed.

The Kaiser led his people down a road of imperialism and commanded with an Iron fist. But then something unfortunate happened to the Greater Kaiser, he had fallen in love. The girl, was Aura. She was beautiful, she was my mother. But I was not his first son, no his first son was Dietrich Von Dorchester VI, heir to the throne and to the Empire. He was everything his father could ask for and no more, and no less. The Empire finally saw peace, the Kaiser began a time of peace, a golden age. But as tradition in Fury, all good things must come to an end, and here is where we begin our little journey, at my birth.

"Oh Aura, please be calm, the Kaiser is out on a patrol he will not see, no one will hurt you. Don't you worry!"

"You don't understand Katie; I don't give a shit about me! I worry for my son!"

"He will be fine my lady, we will find him a home soon enough. But first please, be calm and push! Breath!"

Katie held Aura's paw in her own and held tight. The other servants readied for the birth, each one with a separate towel.

"Push Aura! You have the strength! Everything will be fine!"

"I'm trying!"

"My lady just think, it is fate that both our sons are born on the same day, both with no fathers! It is fate!"

"I know Katie I knoowwww! Ahhh!"

One of the servants called out to Katie.

"Mistress! We can see the baby's head!"

"Aura, you almost have it, just keep pushing!"

With one last push, I was born into this cruel world, my life began. But not so peacefully. Katie wiped the fluids from my fur and wrapped me with towels and fabrics then handed me to my mother, who held me so gently.

"Oh my son, you will do great things, you will be a great wolf some day. For that, I will name you Kiro. My son Kiro."

Katie looked over to me, and smiled. She too knew something was great about my future and the future of her son as well. I and Krys Wolf were born on the same day; both of us had no father. Our mothers gave birth to us with no conception. I of course had deep red eyes and Krys had deep blue, but at the time no one cared about those minute details. A servant then came through the door, panting.

"My lady, the Kaiser, he is on his way..."

Dietrich V slammed the door open, wielding pistol in hand.

"What is going on here..."

The Kaiser stops cold; he looks at Aura with me in her paws. The door handle he was holding, was broken off.

"You, behind my back, committed adultery and bared a son."

"My love, you don't understand!"

"Lies! You lying, little, insignificant, whore!"

The Kaiser pointed the pistol at Aura, and without hesitation pulled the trigger. The bullet sliced right through my mother's head, the blood spilled on my fur. Of course I begin to cry, wailing like a small brat puppy. The Kaiser points the pistol at me.

"Now I will take care of this little blemish on my reign!"

But just before his paw was caught by another paw, and his shot miss fired harmlessly into the wall.

"Mien Kaiser no! This is not your fate, you are a great leader, do not shame your reign!"

"Take your paw off me you bastard! I must end it now!"

"No mien Kaiser, the people will know, they will rebel on such a heinous crime! They cannot afford another tyrannical leader, they have suffered too much!"

The Kaiser, with a rage, slashed his claw at the private's face, tearing a wound a crossed his right eye. Dietrich calmed his breathing then and then the Kaiser, finally, became calm and loosened his grip on the pistol. He turned to the wolf private.

"And what would you suggest I do my trusted advisor, Herr Ludwig Wolf?"

Private Wolf was the husband of Katie, he too was taken aback by the birth of his unofficial son, but he knew that she would never commit adultery. He sighed, unloaded the gun, and placed it on the table aside him, and then wiped the blood from his face. Katie hurried up to his side and handed him a towel to pad his wounded right eye. Sadly the poor wolf would never see again from that eye, all at my expense.

"Mien Greater Kaiser, first we must bury the body of your lost wife. It must never be found that she was murdered, it was an accident. As for the boy, Katie and I shall raise him as our own, in the palace. He will still be your son, but the less confrontation you have with him, the less he will question you about his mother."

The Kaiser's eyes pierced Herr Wolf's pride and make him cringe, the Kaiser's anger was at its peak now.

"This bastard is not my son, he is the product of some horrid adultery! I will not have him in my palace, not in my empire, not in my world. He shall be exterminated, along with the lies!"

"No, he will not. You don't understand Dietrich! My wife too bore a son without conception this day, this is some sort of fate planned for us. It could be a great ally if we chose to embrace it, rather than destroy it."

Dietrich throws the small teak able across the room and shatters it against the adjacent wall. The throws his coat over his shoulders and retrieves his pistol, loads it, and holsters it.

"Fine Ludwig, you can have your foolish prophecy! Just keep that brat away from me and my Reich. Clean up this slut's corpse and have it cast into the ocean. Cancel all peace talks with the Iquit Tribes, and then rally the troops for war, oh and one more thing Herr Wolf."

Ludwig turns his head to his beloved Kaiser with a look of possible hope for his people and maybe even for his poor family.

"Ja mien Kaiser?"

"Your fired, I am sending you back to the front lines, where you can die with the rest of the traitors!"

The Kaiser slammed the door behind him as he abruptly left the scene. I began to cry again at this time; Katie wiped the blood from my fur again, this time it being my mother's as she tried to shush my cry. She turned her head to her husband.

"Ludwig, she is dead, Aura is dead, you are returning to the front lines, we are at war again, and I don't dare imagine that anything could possibly be worse?"

Herr Wolf simply shaked his head and sighed, then, with a towel, again wiping blood from his own wound.

"No my love, the worst has yet to come, I'm afraid that our golden age of peace has ended. Now we have let the sun fully set, and darkness will engulf our small world yet again.
