Xharuz entered the palace with Ashwinn, his fingers clutched into the alpha's hand as they walked together. His slender body moved in step with his alpha, he wore a white tunic-style shirt that hung over his shoulders and flowed over his thin muscular torso, the long tails of the tunic were neatly tucked under a silver belt and the belt buckle was the sigil of his spider goddess Lolth. Cream and gold embroidered his white pants, his feet in sandals. The soft footwear made tapping sounds that echoed through the large lavish hallways of the two Emperors of the Zuran Dynasty. The Omega King was really excited to see this place, he only heard rumors of its beauty and splendor. Also, he was excited about seeing his twin brother Zyal. When they entered the hall he held back a squeak of surprise seeing Zya, his fingers moving to clasp on to Ashwinn's bicep and he smiled from ear to ear. From the corner of his eye, he witnessed Ash side-eye him and like the Ash, he was he had no expression on his face. But Xharuz had been around Ashwinn long enough that he picked up on mute facial expressions of his alpha, and he grinned even bigger when small wrinkles appeared in the corner of his eyes and he knew the Alpha was happy too, even if his mouth didn't express it. The solemn look of Ash just caused Xharuz to show even more on his face and the smile that couldn't be brushed away. Resisting the urge to run forward and tackle his twin, he stopped and let Ash greet the emperor first and then Xharuz would have his way with his brother after. His smile dropped when his alpha took a knee in front of Zya, he had never seen Ash do such a thing to someone younger than him before. And to be respectful to his alpha, he also took a knee and bowed his head to the Emperor.
He never believed Zyal would pull all of this off. When Zyal mentioned to him that he was going to bring them all together again. Deep inside he wrote it off as a pipe dream, he even recalled telling him "Don't waste your time." Ashwinn had given up, his soul was missing after the war, and the emptiness inside he filled with sex and drugs. Seeing your father beheaded in front of you on the battlefield will do that to a person. When he got the invite to come, part of him didn't believe it. He thought the babies, Kinvioc and Thilvadh were murdered in their cribs. He never knew his mother snuck them out of Underdark. He arrived with his brother Xharuz, and the two of them would enter the palace dining room. Stepping in he looked around, he wore a black vest and black pants. Shiny clean black shoes. His chest was exposed with traces of scars and burns on his flawless skin, the scars winding down his arms and hands. Evidence of his time as a slave, and also the self-inflicted pain he put on himself being the vessel of Ghaundaur. The cult of the Elder Elemental Eye wasn't kind. Walking over to the long wooden table in the dining hall. He saw his brother Zyal waiting for them at the table and he walked over to the Emperor. It was weird being the oldest in the family and he was about to do something that only the youngest sibling would do. He reached out, clasping Zyal's hand in his as he took a knee and kissed his knuckles. "You really outdone yourself, Emperor. I should've never doubted you for a second."
It took Zya decades to track down all his brothers. Ashwinn, Zegnyk, Xharuz, Thilvadh, and Kinvioc. But he was very dedicated in his search he never once gave up. He knew all his brothers were still alive and still out there. After their father Zaos was beheaded by the evil Queen Zihua, she slowly sold off the brothers into slavery or imprisoned them in her dungeons. She never wanted the Children of Zaos to come back together again. But Zya was the new boss bitch in this family he wasn't going to let Zihua succeed.
Even after killing Zihua with his own hands, he started his perilous search, and with luck! Finally, after all these decades he was able to bring his brothers back together again. Zya did have sisters too, but unfortunately, Zihua had them all killed after the war.
Ashwinn and his brother Zegnyk were both thrown into slavery. The two of them ripped apart for years until Ashwinn regained his strength and became alpha. Zegnyk didn't know Zihua was dead, so after he won his freedom he went into hiding. Xharuz, along with Zya were thrown into Zihua's dungeon and she intended on using the two of them for breeding purposes. Zya back then gave in to his fate and believed if Zihua focused all her hate on him then she would leave Xharuz alone. But Zihua messed up and laid hands on Xharuz which caused a chain of events that ended up causing her death.
Kinvioc and Thilvadh were just infants at the time of the war and their mother Wymsical sent the babies away to be hidden and cared for by their djinn godfather Irru Tarrohk. Kinvioc and Thilvadh grew up in another dimension and it took Zya even longer to find out where the crazy Irru hid them. Until luck shined on Zya and his brothers found him.
Now it was time for a party... drinking and catching up.
