Now, let's expand a little on this world, then we'll return later to the young Lord Trevor. The world is Triangle, a vast continent containing a large number of kingdoms, cities, lords, noble families, and masters, thousands of years old. However, the continent is ruled by three major families: the Ravenger family, a noble family of ancient lineage, very powerful, possessing a castle called Blackblood Castle, ruled by Lord Vigo Ravenger, an old lord of 60 years. Skirmishes existed between this family and the Drakarion family, but Lord Carlos Drakarion forged an alliance with Vigo to end the conflict. The alliance was based on 10 conditions, including the marriage of Vigo's eldest daughter to Carlos's eldest son (Trevor) after the death of Carlos or Vigo. Some conditions were to be implemented during their lifetimes, and others after death. Because the treaty stipulated mutual benefit, Vigo was thinking purely of expansionist ambitions, so he began to procrastinate until he broke the covenant, and the treaty was nullified. After Carlos's death, his eldest son Trevor Drakarion took leadership, but Lord Carlos's death came at a critical time because most of the Drakarion family's army had been sent on a large military mission, led by Lucas Drakarion, the younger son, and Darmund Drakarion, Carlos's brother, Trevor's uncle, a veteran nicknamed Blackeye due to the circumstances. Vigo seized the opportunity and sent a massive army of 8,000 fighters, exploiting the moment of weakness, led by the veteran military knight Vagnar. Then what happened, happened. We will delve deeper soon.

As for the third family, it is the West family, nicknamed the Golden Family due to their immense wealth. They rule a castle known as Dawn Castle due to its whiteness. This family was known for its strength, honor, intelligence, and wealth, and it is considered the third most powerful family after the Drakarion and Ravenger families. It is ruled by Lord Andrew West. Vigo's pretext for attacking House Drakarion was that they had broken the covenant and had not kept their word, but his position was clear in the continent. Families whose goal was expansion and greed sided with him, given his clear superiority. Cowardly, weak families stood by him out of fear of his victory, lest they taste his wrath for opposing him. However, the West family and some other families chose neutrality with a secret inclination towards the Drakarion family. No lord showed this, following the advice of Lord Andrew West, fearing a continental war between families and kingdoms leading to ruin. Instead, he sufficed with sending a neutral envoy, a noble knight named Andric West, seeking peace.
