Blood and Mercy

[Zeltak]

Prologue: Forgotten history

Little was known about Satoya's childhood...

A Blood Dragon member begins his training at fourteen years old. During the final exam one must be able to kill his brethren in a battle to the death. Satoya was unlucky enough to go up against one of the more promising students. One missile ended the fight with Satoya's ship ripped to pieces. Due to the impact of the explosion, combined with the intense burning that came after, he was declared perished by the medical team. As tradition followed, his body was tractored in and prepared to be put inside a ship which would ignite as it was launched its way out to the vast space.

But Satoya had somehow managed to survive, none could understand why. Every single factor that occurred during the event pointed towards his death. There was no logical reason to how he was still alive. A case like this had never happened before, it was always ensured that one pilot stood victorious. The training instructors saw this as a sign that this person was not meant to be killed and thus he was considered a fully fledged Blood Dragon member, he wasn't even asked to complete the final exam. Though, doctors were still fascinated about Satoya and his survival. He was exposed to several tests, one which seemed to show that Satoya didn't remember anything other than his own name. Later he was diagnosed with amnesia, the memories of his past and the life he had cherished before was forever lost inside a clouded mind. He was reborn once again...
