Friendships will be tested, brothers will be brought together and torn apart and a king will realize his limits. It all starts when the flames of the palace burn their brightest and an innocents blood is spilled. PREQUEL to my other story, Devil May Cry: Restitution! This is the first fan fiction I wrote and completed back in 2009. It was originally posted to my deviantART account on August 3rd, 2009 but I decided to migrate some of my work from over there to my profile here for a change in scenery. Nothing about the story has changed nor do I intend on changing anything about it. It's an old story that went on for a while and now it's done so the writing here compared to my newer works may appear 'lesser' but hey it was my first real story ;D We all start somewhere yeah? I also need to mention that the original characters that appear in this story and it's sequel posted on my deviantART account are NOT, and I repeat, NOT fan characters I made for the Devil May Cry franchise.
