Chapter One - Unexpected

At the dusking of the day, the sun conceals its presence behind the glooming woods of Lance, the supreme and largest kingdom in the western plains, ruled by his majesty; King Eric Levy. Along a rocky narrow path leading out of the woods rode a stallion mounted by Elroy, an average heighted fair alluring boy in his mid-twenties, with a good physique. He smiled so cheerfully even the unkind twilight breeze rejoiced in his short brunette hair. “At last Celsius, our search is finally over.” Said Elroy, stroking the mane of the stallion and looking up ahead at the walls of Lance miles away.At about half a mile, Elroy halts his stallion on seeing a kid struggling with a sack; out of his gentle heart he trots his stallion closer to the boy with an intention of help.“Do you need help boy?”“Sure, I’ll be highly grateful” replied the young ladElroy immediately dismounts Celsius then walks up to the

Chapter Two - Questions of the past

In the dark deep of night, the tranquil unruffled southern town, Urania, soon rose from its profound slumber when hoof beats and war cries steamed into the red-black cloud reflecting the cottages engulfed in flames. The first half of Urania was frightening, children watched as their fathers fell to the sword and their mothers dragged away as they screamed and begged for mercy. On the other hand, dying men along with bruised fathers drenched in their blood could not help but watch as their children were lugged into cages mounted on carriages.Meanwhile in the second half of Urania, those with the sympathy to stay prayed out their eyes while others ran as fast as they could or rode on their horses into the forest nearby. “Get on the horse now.” Yelled a middle aged man at a child. “No, I will stand and fight as a man…” Before the little boy of nine could complete his statement, a slap

Chapter Three - The Plot

It was the dawn of a new day, the sky was cloudy, the soil of the fogy Woody forest was wet and mushy from the heavy down pour at night. A young lad swarming in wet sludge, not minding his condition, staggered his way through the soil. He soon missed his step which sent him tumbling down a slope towards a track, luckily for the lad a carriage happens to be passing by when he hit the ground.Beside a cottage, surrounded by willow forestations at the top of a hill, the young lad now clean and clothed in green linen gown lay peaceful and alive on a bed. By his left hand side sat a blond hair girl a bit younger in age, in same outfit as him; staring at his innocent frown.By his right hand sat a young lady, also a blond, squeezing water out of a towel into a bowl before wiping the lads face with it.“Is he going to be fine?” the little girl asked with a pure voice.“Yes dear, nothing will happen to him.”“Mother,

It was the nineteenth hour of the day, yet a flock of Finch still peeper around the Fir forest; the puff of air blowing across was chilled but tepid in an oddly way. At the Meander of a river dividing the Fir forest horizontally into two halves; five Men gather around a camp fire chatting while awaiting two rabbits being roasted by the fire. “Seriously, why are we here?” asked Ben, the youngest and innocent looking one amongst the men“Quit complaining Ben” replied Alan “I’m supposed to be with my wife” Ben stretches his hands wide then

Chapter Five - Betrayal

Now dark and misty, Miriam and Elroy walk their way through a thick forest in the borders of the west-southwest plains holding torches to illuminate their surrounding; for the moon was clouded from sight. “How did you manage after the incident at Urania?” Miriam asked curiouslySighs, “I’m not sure, I remember being cared for by a family in Etrigon, every other memory seems hazy, it seems whatever happened in Lance altered my memory.”“Do not stress yourself El, you must have hurt your head really bad.”“Thanks for the encouragement.” Elroy appreciated sarcastically“Do not worry, when we settle at Ramenia we shall get to the bottom of this.” Miriam assured with a smile. “I hope so Mira, I left Etrigon to the waste lands for a reason, then to Lance; whatever it is, it was very important.”“All will be fine.”“Come to think of it, what were you doing far west i

Tony straightened himself then gazes up to the warriors, “Just for formality sake, I’m not going to be executed without a fight.” He assured with a smile. “Not today Tony” a voice familiar to Tony spoke from behind the warriors. Darren, a young General walks amidst the warriors then stops in front of Tony; average in height, having a body size in between being skinny and chubby. He was in his early thirties but his long dark hair brought out his twenties look. “Prince Phil has ordered for your immediate release.” “Like hell he would” said Tony, trying to hide his relief and happiness on hearing the great news. “It’s true Tony, have I

Chapter Seven - Going as planned

EtrigonIt was the fifteenth hour of the day, the cloud stood gloomy and thick, the wind blew harshly in the willow forest at the top of a hill; coercing the catkin of the willow trees to flutter about. Adding to the bustle of the atmosphere was the uninterrupted resounding of clashing blades between Luna and Elroy, bringing out a thunderous effect. Luna, attractive and beautiful as ever was now in her fourteenth year, possessing all features of a growing lady; on the other hand, good-looking Elroy was now in his sixteenth year, thriving in a noble physique.Both struck at each other from several positions, none willing to back down at any moment. In an instance, an unpleasant clash sent them retreating backwards with a jump; breathing heavily both stared boldly into each other’s eyes for a while then advanced towards each other. First strike from Elroy came as a mistake; discerning the fault, Luna swiftly counters Elroy’s attack, disarms

Chapter Eight - Hidden Agenda

EtrigonTwenty-second hour of the dayThe sky was pitch black allowing the tiny clusters of stars to flicker glossily, the full moon itself mingled into the night creating a beautiful illumination on the town. Eighteen-year-old Elroy looking rather exhausted, trots his horse up a hill path leading to the cottage of Orlanda Ramsey.On getting to a point of view were the cottage could be seen, the cottage door was wild open; the only source of light was the lantern hanging outside which was almost fading out. Keeping the bad thoughts on check Elroy quickly dismounted his horse; then began walking gently towards the cottage, his heart beat increasing with every step he took. Suddenly, in the melancholy of the intense atmosphere Luna staggered out of the cottage but gained balance on the wall, giving Elroy a bit of relief, “Luna” he called out quietly “what’s up with…” Elroy paused with his speech, shri

Chapter Nine - All coming together

Rune ClanTwenty-second hour of the dayThe rainstorm in the town raged on, keeping everyone locked inside their homes, the only light emitted in the town excluding the flashes of lightning, was from an Inn just before the harbor. In the bar room Elroy was seated, having a drink with Lukas, Mira, Karin, Jake and Hector, a pale chubby fellow. “Alright Elroy, you have met every member of Equipe cinq” said Lukas “Equi… Equipe what?” Elroy asked confusedly “Equipe cinq, French for team five” said Mira “Oh! A nice team indeed” agreed Elroy “Altogether we are the Seekers squad also known as Escouade de chercheurs” said Lukas “I think I’ll go with Seekers squad.” Replied Elroy “The seekers squad comprises of ten teams, each having five member
