Mirik's POV-

My body hurts. Where am I? I opened my eyes and was greeted by a small dimly lit room with a small window. I tried to get up but the pain was too much for me. I started to remember how I got here. I was in a fight with Kiara but then...Adi betrayed me. I still remember the words that he said to me.

"She is more worthy than you. I don't want you to die today, so sleep." those were the last words he said before the chain started vibrating vigorously and I fainted. I couldn't believe that my own ancestor would betray me. I should be in Kala village. My first priority is to get out. The chief of this village wasn't keen on my arrival. But how do I get out of here in this state?

"You woke up? Quite strong for your age." the door to the room opened and a man entered. I looked at him and it was the same dreaded old chief. I wanted to beat him so bad but I knew he was strong and my body wouldn't allow me anyway.

"How are you feeling?" he asked me while sitting on the chair near me. He waited for a reply from me which never came.

"Bala and Kiara have left for the city," he said with a smirk.

"What? Why?" I asked in shock.

"To avenge their father, what else," he said like it was a matter of fact.

"They will get killed. They are not strong enough and they don't even have any information on them." I said while getting up from the bed. It was hurting but I had to get up.

"Don't worry they'll manage. You should be worried about yourself," he said standing up from his seat. Two guards entered the room and stood behind him.

"What do you want?" I said in a grim voice.

"Don't overestimate yourself, you can't give me anything. You are worthless to me and worthless things should be thrown away in the trash." he left the room after saying this. The two guards behind him stepped forward and started cuffing my legs and hands. I tried to resist but it was futile, I didn't have the energy in me. After they cuffed me they put a rag on my face to completely cover it. I started to struggle more but was stopped when the guard hit me on the head leaving me unconscious.

UNKNOWN POV-

Hmm...how long have I been in this dark place? Should I just break out of here? No. If I get out I will only cause mayhem in the world. I have controlled myself for 25 years, I can probably control for 25 more right? Shit. Maybe I am losing my sanity. How do I even know that so many years have passed when I haven't even seen the sun in a long time.

But I have to say...It's boring in here. I don't get it, how are there no criminals in this village who are thrown in here. Is this village a fucking paradise or something? They haven't even sent a single grain of food in here. I have been surviving until now on worms and bugs. Thank heavens for making a stream of water flow by here underground. I really want to feel the breeze outside, I want to sleep on a comfy bed, I want to be with my family...But isn't that the reason why I am here in the first place?

I was a man with immense power, but power corrupts the man. I was once hailed as a genius, all the people in the world, all the ladies flocking to me. I was on the top of the world with no care whatsoever for anything. And that was my biggest mistake. In the heat of the moment, I did something unforgivable.

I couldn't forgive myself, I couldn't face my loved ones, and came to this village to repent for my sins. I was placed in a special prison which stops the prisoner from gathering any spiritual power. This was the only place that could hold me but over time the place is losing its power on me or...maybe I am getting stronger.

I was in the middle of my thoughts when I heard the door of the prison open for the first time in so many years.

A body was thrown in and the door was closed again. But I could feel something.....after a very long time.

I could sense family.
