  1. Ok, typical impatient Damien
     
  2. That was the Prologue, chapter 1 will start when I get more characters
     
  3. Chapter 1

    'Look, he's awake!' The guard walked over to the prisoner, who was restrained in chains and bared many scars, the guard punched the prisoner in the stomach while another guard watched and the prisoner spat blood at the guard.
    'You'll pay for this!' The prisoner shouted at the guards. The prisoner then blacked out again.
    'He's awake again' Just as the guard went to punch him, the dungeon door opened and a peculiar man walked in.
    'Take him to the interrogation room,
    It's time we knew the truth.' The odd man beckoned to the guards, the guards led the prisoner to the interrogation room and dropped him onto a chair, the room was a simple square shape with 2 chairs and a table sat in the middle, the prisoner occupying one chair, the peculiar man took the other.
    'Ahh, Damien of Temeria, the king slayer, but you say you're innocent, tell me what happened that day!' The peculiar man demanded.
    'Well, it started when the king summoned me in the morning, I was in my tent sleeping, when a rather fat guard walked in, woke me up and told me that the king wanted to see me. I did as the guard asked, got dressed and met the king on the battlefield, the king was accompanied by his advisor, the advisor had concerns about the king being on the battlefield, the king merely laughed and told the advisor that we were out of range. The king then saw me, greeted me and told me that he wanted me to join him in the siege of the enemy castle, he wanted me to help stop the rebellion, so I did as I was ordered and climbed into the siege tower, where the nobles cowered, and the real heroes were on the ground being killed, being used as cannon fodder, anyway. We got to the castle, broke through their initial defences and broke into their walls, this allowed us to entire the small settlement that the walls were enclosing, the Elves fought back but we outnumbered them, and we drove them off, their leader escaped with a few men but the king considered it a victory. A monk then approached the king and asked him to pray, the monk led him to the monastery but the king asked me to follow, while we were in the church, the monk walked off with the king leaving me to wait, I watched as the monk withdrew a knife and slit the king's throat, I ran over to the scene and the monk threw off his robe, revealing a man built like a mountain. I chased the man but he jumped out of a window into a lake, where a boat and 2 Scoia'Tael troops were waiting. I ran over to the king when a few brave soldiers ran in and saw me with the king, thinking I murdered him, that's why I'm here now'
    'You're either an amazing liar or you're telling the truth, if you were to "escape" this dungeon, what would you do?'
    'Hunt down the assassin'
    'Fine' The peculiar man placed a key on the table and walked out, Damien picked up the key and freed himself, now all he had to do was escape the city.
    'My boat will leave at noon' the man shouted back at Damien, so Damien worked his way out and met the peculiar man 'by the way, the name's Dandelion'
    'Dandelion? What sort of name is that?'
    'The name of the commander of the blue stripes, the former king's special forces' With that, they sailed away.
     
  4. Shup, it's an awesome name....








    NAAT
     
  5. Don't worry, it basically means JK
     
  6. Awesome! First appearance and I already have a killshot! 
     
  7. The small military ship sailed through the winding tributaries and stream of the Badong River heading to the small Dwarven town of Rivia, Dandelion had told Damien that the Dwarves could help them track down the Scioa'Tael.

    The ship stopped at a small docking platform along the bank of one of the small tributaries, Rivia was just a small walk away from this dock, the humans would have to walk the last half a mile through a forest, once ruled by the former king, but now the forest was a popular home of The Scoia'Tael, though the humans didn't know this. Damien and Dandelion were accompanied by a petit young Elf named Jodie, well that's what the humans called her, her real name was too complicated, although Jodie was and Elf she wanted to help Damien, she had always had a small crush on him.
    'Hear that?' Dandelion pointed to the vague direction of the sound.
    'Smells like an Elf playing a flute' Damien said with disgust. They kept walking and there he was, a male Elf, playing a silver flute, he stopped looked at the humans and stood up.
    'What do you want?'
    'Ahh, Iorveth, commander of the Flotsam Scoia'Tael, nice to meet you, I've heard so much, the name's Dandelion'
    'Dandelion?! Oh yes, this is perfect, first my village was raided by your kind and now they send the leader of the blue stripes to hunt me down'
    'Shut up!' Damien said spitefully. 'We're not stupid, you helped the king slayer get away with what he did'
    'Maybe I did, but you deserve it, us Elves have been in hiding for a long time because your filthy race hunted us down!'
    'This isn't about power, money or the shape of you ears, you're doing this because someone powerful told you to, you're just an old Elf in a new Elf's body' Jodie was casting some sort of spell as the two argued, she threw a ball of magic at Iorveth, narrowly missing him
    'ATTACK THE HUMANS!' As Iorveth said this a flurry of arrows rained down upon the humans, Jodie casted a charm and the arrows turned into butterflies, this protective shield stayed active around the humans but Jodie passed out and the humans had to escape. They ran through the forest and finally reached the Dwarven town, where they found an inn and they laid down for the night.
