Captain Raven - Chapter 18 The Time Is Not Ripe

After the call from chairman Adamare

“Do we have to do this? There are other lords too if we want to negotiate.” said elder Dako, who was slightly afraid.

Adamare ignored elder Dako, she looked at elder Goodwill and said ” Goodwill you know what to do, you have permission to use that. Baaruk will stay by your side and help you, don’t hesitate to contact us if something goes wrong or awry.”

Elder Goodwill and admiral Baaruk did a bow and wanted to walk straight to the docks…

“Chairman Adamare, I want to lead the fleet, please give me this chance.”

Elder Senko looked at Chairman Adamare with determination.

*sigh* “I can’t do this, you are too emotional invested. I know how you feel, but this is…there’s too much on the stake. We can’t allow ourselves to fall to our emotions, not now, every mistake we make, costs life. My old dear friend, your time will come I promise you that, but its not now.” Adamares look was caring and gentle, in this moment she wasn’t the ferocious chairman of the federation, but a friend.

Elder Senko looked at Chairman at her sincerity. He was a little dejected.

“I…I understand…” He knew she was right, the time will come where he will have his revenge, fate will not hold him back, patience will be paid. He just has to wait.

Adamare pitied elder Senko.

Elder Senkos planet got conquered. Avarus Malums invasion took the life of his children. His wife was sold to an rich aristocrat. When he found out what happened, as he escaped from the clutches of Avarus Malum what happened to his wife, he was seething with rage and determined to get her back, he slowly worked his way up in the federation ranks, when he finally had enough power to get her back, on the day he wanted his wife back, it was already to late… She committed suicide right after she was caught, to prevent worst, she chose death. Once the aristocrat caught wind of it, he was furious. He ordered her to be cut up and be feeded to the dogs, until nothing was left. Elder Senko who was looking at the aristocrat leisurely drinking wine and laughing while telling him this was crying blood.

He ordered his man to kill all kin of his in rage. The whole mansion was massacred. The aristocrat that was laughing was now on a cross, looking at his dead children and wife being fed to dogs, he pleaded and cried out loud to stop, but elder Senko just looked at him and said “Did you stop after my wife was already dead? I have nothing to lose, reputation? honour? fame? What do I need it, when my life lost it purpose. I will not stop, you are the first to witness my retribution. Don’t worry after I’m done I will not follow my family to heaven, I will submit to the devil so I can watch for eternity how you relieve this day again and again. I don’t deserve to touch my family with these hands but for you these are good enough.”

Since then elder Senko was known as red river, where he went there was river,where he looked, there was blood.
