Thousands of years ago.
A merchant ship sailed in the storm, battling against the crashing waves and howling winds, and the crewmen fought against the elements with all their might.
It rocked back and forth like a small leaf in a raging river, and some of the crewmen fell off the ship into the churning waters below.
"Ahhhhhhhh!"
"Captain, save us!"
In the midst of the deck, a malnourished-looking young man crouched down, clutching a rope tightly in his hands, and pulled it to furl the sail.
"Argh!"
His hands were bleeding from the rough fibers of the rope, and his body was barely able to survive the violent winds.
"Huff! Huff! Huff!"
Imperius breathed heavily, his arms shaking from the strain of holding up the sail, and then saw a lightning stab through one of the masts.
The mast fell down and fell on top of one of the crewmen, crushing their body like a bug.
"Oh my god!"
