The tangerine king strolled into the room with his flowing orange gown drinking water from his cup, the droplets flowing down his mouth like that of a child, and throwing it down. He and his throne were on an elevated platform such that he was always in a position where he was looking down on his opponents... I mean subjects.
His crown slanted as he slumped into his chair. "I had a dream that there were some people in this kingdom that were not supposed to be here. And you know, The only thing I hate more than sharing my resources with you parasites in this kingdom, is sharing it with parasites of another kingdom"
"But it's our resources", Aka whispered
"Who said that!", The king said standing up with fury.
Aka pointed at Hiro
"Lock him up"
"It wasn't me"
"How long do we arrest him your highness"
"Fifty years! And lock yourself up too for asking me that stupid question"

The guard leaves with the prisoner.
"Can you imagine that?", the King fumed. "Our Resources. You, thank you for pointing him out. What's your name"
"Aka, your majesty". "Aka I won't lie to you that's a very stupid name. But..." The king rubbed the bottom of his chin, "We can use you on the resource management Unit. No. The... Allocation... Node. TAN Aka. Hmm!"
"Very well done your majesty", his adviser said.
"Right?", the king said, before his expression darkened. "Why are you not clapping? You better clap before I execute you!"
The adviser started clapping immediately.
"Good", the king said, his smile slowly returning. "Now, Tan Aka. Step up, and be granted the power to protect this realm".
Aka came up and held out his palm as instructed by the king,
"Now just mirror everything I do", The king said as they performed the ultra top secret handshake known by only him and his adviser. "Of the six realms, this is the only one where none of the useless subjects have magic. I mean, some of them have weapons but it is not nearly enough. If, heaven forbid, there was any enemy coming to attack me in my sleep, and my adviser wasn't around... My reign would come to a swift end". "Now, Tan Aka. Go forth and get me the imposters"
"But... but, your majesty. I thought you said they have magic. What if they disappear me away"
"Tanaka! Get me the imposters before I execute you!"
Aka reluctantly strolled out of the castle.
"And that handshake made it that I can kill you wherever you are. So if you want to test me, don't bring me any outsiders today"
