When Tupper Trenine returned from his study of magic around the world, he was mortifed to see a huge cloud of smoke floating about the location of Dustari...

Or where it had been.

He proceeded to fight his way into the castle grounds in an unbeforeseen rage, blasting any opposition he encountered with a hasty fireball. He made his way across the ruined bridge... to find the leaders of Samurai and the Troupe laughing and talking in the middle of the ruins. Amongst it all, was the Ghost himself...

As he approached, he noted that his magic was useless in the presence of the Pirate... and confronted him.

"What do you want, boy?!"
"W-What have you done..."
"We've ended your precious king's evil reign!" *cheers from the group behind them*
"What?! WHERE IS THE KING?!"
"In his grave, boy."

Tupper Trenine proceeded to wander off into the castle ruins in a confused rage, where, in his weakened state, was ambushed, and left for dead in a ditch...

As he laid there, thinking about what had happened in the last few hours, and preparing for his death... he remembered a old potion recipe, and that the king had mentioned that all the ingredients were within the castle grounds...

After healing himself with the potion, Tupper Trenine disappeared into the shadows, waiting for the chance to strike back, a chance to gain his revenge...

(Note: Because AoD is now disbanded, that history never existed...)
