There was once a great beast who landed on a planet known as Terra Star. This beast, alongside his wife, soon took hold of the Kingdom Phyrgia. The beast would soon take the name of King Fecto Midas. King Fecto Midas ruled with grace, and great power unlike any seen before, but he was patient and empathetic towards the little creatures around him. Despite this, he was more than often on the battlefield, striking terror into the hearts of his enemies.
One day, while Midas was at war, his kingdom was stolen. Despite his rush to return home, his subjects were captured and enslaved, and his family taken hostage. They claimed that if Midas even thought of attacking them to reclaim his lost throne, they would kill his family. With no other choice to protect his family, Midas retreated to the Land of the Gods to pray for the power and cunning to take back his kingdom and protect his family. The one to greet him at the starlight gates was Dionysus , God of Madness and Wine.
Midas asked Dionysus for the power to take back his Kingdom, to which the wise God agreed, but declared that the boon would come at a steep price, and asked if Midas was willing to answer it. Midas, desperate for his family, agreed. When Midas returned to Phyrgia, he bowed before the ones that took his kingdom, praising them for their skill. As a show of no ill will, Midas offered the new King his blessing of wealth and fortune. When the new King accepted and Midas gave his blessing, he was instantly turned to solid gold.
Midas' victory over his enemy was short lived, however. While he did terrify the enemies he spared into leaving, he knew that he would never be able to hold his children or his wife ever again to protect them from his boon. At dinner that day, Midas went to take a bit of his meal, only for it to turn into gold between his teeth. With the blessing now turned into a curse, Midas left to find Dionysus again to demand the God take back the boon. Dionysus hid from the furious King, and refused to make his presence known, amused by the King's desperation. It was only when Midas had pushed himself to exhaustion that Dionysus appeared.
When Midas made his plea to the God, Dionysus laughed. He was warned of the price he would pay, and still, he hungered for the violence. When Midas still demanded Dionysus take back the boon, Dionysus finally agreed to do so, and devoured the King. When Midas never returned home, his eldest child made a vow to themselves, one that they honoured when they came of age and left Phyrgia to find their own Kingdom.
No one can conquer you if there's nothing left to take.
