It was customary for the story to be shared with the next generation, the tale of their ancestor's quest to end the war and alleviate the suffering of himself and others – at least, that was what Lysandre's father had told him, back then, when they'd sat together in his dimly lit office, and he'd opened one of the thick tomes he kept hidden there to tell his son about the successes and mistakes of the man who once was king of Kalos.
There were things he didn't say, things Lysandre found later, in books that were kept behind locked drawers and secret compartments: schematics drawn over papers that had gone faded and yellowed with time, writings that betrayed desires and aspirations that were far less noble than he'd been led to believe – and something else, even more sinister, that lay beneath it all.
A machine.
