Chapter 1 - THE MYSTERIOUS BOY

In a typical fantasy world of mythic beings and landscapes both beautiful and horrifying came the sounds of horses and a carriage in a forest, a man in a cloak moving the carriage shouted to two men on horses behind the carriage, "hurry up we dont want the kings' royal army chasing us" and they both shouted in unison, "too late". Which made the man speed of almost leaving the two horse men in a trail of dust. One of the men asked what is in the carriage the other one replied I don't know but whatever it is it must be with a lot if the royal army is after us.

Meanwhile, in a castle to the far north of the forest the king of the land shouted to the generals of his army "find them they couldn't have gotten far and when found execute them on sight!". One of the kings most trusted generals general Mark said, your grace they have evaded all our scouts and are yet to be found please have patience" right after that a knight just barged into the meeting room and said "sorry to intrude on your private meeting but one of the scouting teams have found the carriage your grace". Everyone in the meeting room immediately turned to the entrance where the knight was and waiting for the kings reply when another knight also came in and said "my king the scouting team were killed after finding the carriage and are yet to be tracked". ?????

At this point everyone all the generals were dumbfounded by the speed the scouts were eliminated and asked themselves whether this was really necessary for a simple carriage at which a general asked, "My king with all due respect is this carriage that important that you would risk your mens lives". They were all waiting to

see the response of the king as they also didn't think a mere carriage would be as precious as peoples' lives. The king plainly answered, "the carriage is worthless but the my son is in that carriage so l can't let them escape with that carriage. General Mark asked the king how his son was in the carriage when he was not planning on going anywhere in the morning and now everyone is in a state of shock as to how the prince of their kingdom was kidnapped and they werent aware. The king replied, "general even I don't know but when he is back in this castle he will answer that question, now there is no time to waste send more scouting troupes to where the carriage was last seen we have to find that carriage no matter what it takes.

In a large tree in the forest is a boy in tattered clothes watching the events of the between the scouts which are now dead and the fleeing horse men with the carriage in the lead now no one is tailing them and with a clear sight of their goal a hidden warp gate victory is all they can think of. That is until the carriage abruptly comes to a stop. The horse men ask what is going on but receive no response they decide to investigate only to find an unconscious man with no horse in sight. They ditch the man thinking he is dead and hook the carriage to their horses only to see at the corner of their eyes a bunch of horses coming at full speed straight at them. Upon seeing this they thought there was a sniper in the scouting troupes who spotted them and immediately commanded the horses to go at max speed.

Now it was a very slim chance of survival as they were nearing the warp gate when suddenly they saw a white object in front of them it appeared so fast that they didn't hv enough time to react and jst crashed into it. The scout troupes on their tails saw them crash and were befuddled but decided to grasp the situation later they main objective was the carriage and the carriage alone that is until they spotted a frail looking boy in tattered clothes and bruises in front of the carriage and wondered how did such a frail looking boy get here and did they just him by mistake.
