Chapter 1 - CHAPTER 1: The Beginning of Everything

On a dark winter's night, under the light of a street lamp flashing at the beginning of the street, there was a shadow. The old man who watches the shadow later realised that it is a person. First he didn't want to get any closer, but at the end he approached to the shadow to satisfy his curiosity.

"Hey you there, what are you doing here?''

There was no answer, the old man was getting very uneasy and suddenly decided to go to him. He realized that he could only be a young man of 19 or 20 years old. His hair was black, his skin was pale, and his eyes were a color that was close to midnight blue.

"Are you going to answer my question or have you swallowed your tongue?"

The young man nervously:

"Where is this place, I don't know where I am"

The old man looking into his eyes:

"Where at Luthern village, you mean you don't really know this place?"

The old man couldn't understand and was confused, what was this young man doing under this lamp in the middle of the night?

The young man slowly moved his lips and said:

''Damon ''

The old man couldn't hear and asked: ''I don't understand what you're saying''

"My Name is Damon''

The old man was scared when he heard this name because the name Damon was not welcomed in this country. It was thought to evoke fear and sadness. Still, the old man could not leave him there like that so he told Damon to come and invited him to his house.

When they came to the house,

"Now I want you to tell me who you are and where you came from, young man."

While Damon was drinking the water that old man gave, he looked around with his blue eyes and then he realized that he was really lost. The houses, the buildings, even the people did not look like the people in his hometown. Damon said in a scared voice:

"I have to go, I have to find my family"

The old man didn't understand what was happening. Just as Damon was leaving the house, he grabbed his arm and

"What are you talking about?"

Damon nodded slightly and began to explain what had happened to the old man.

''Yes, my family: my mother, my father and my little sister... My mother and my sister were chatting, my father was working in his room, and I was sitting in the garden. Then I heard an explosion and when I went to see what happened, there was a ball of fire in the middle of the living room, it was a golden yellow flame. I panicked and immediately went to my mother and sister and took them away from there, the flame was getting bigger and bigger, I immediately went to my father's room...

Damon suddenly stopped and started to remember something, put his hands on his head.

"No, it can't be, it can't be"

The old man was worried and approached Damon, lifted his head to see tears. Damon's midnight blue eyes suddenly became brighter. Damon was crying...

"What happened, why are you crying?"

Damon looked at the old man and said...
