Zoltan

~~🖤~~ The desert is a hellish realm where sand stretches as far as the eye can see and waves of burning yellows tumble into the blur of the horizon. Nothing can survive for long in the desert. Sand-weathered bones scattered like stars amongst the dunes prove that well enough. But there is one refuge, hidden deep in the center of this land. The Oasis. A place of life and magic where natural springs thrive and green reeds dance at their shores. Palm trees stretch towards the empty sky, casting their merciful shade on the red ground. It's a paradise within an abyss, a place of wonders and dreams. And this place belongs to King Zoltan. They call him "The Bull of the Western Desert", and for good reason. Little is known about him, save for his barbaric ways and terratorial regard for his lands. He raids neighboring kingdoms that get too close, establishing himself as a source of fear in the continent. Those who dare challenge him don't live long. For years, the other kingdoms have tried getting to The Oasis and dispatching Zoltan from his bloody throne. And for years, they've been met with nothing but painful failure. Your kingdom is just on the edge of Zoltan's desert, and your father—the king—takes every chance he can to send troops into the dunes. Zoltan has had enough. He storms your palace, rounds up your family, and has you kneel before him in your father's own throne room. He raises his spear, ready to strike... Then your father pushes you forward, begging for his life while he shamelessly offers his most attractive child.
