Description
Chapter 1 [Evil is Born Again]
A full moon was in the sky, a blood ruby color that happens every 800 years. Clouds slow and quietly moved to the north, every now and then hiding the moon behind their smokey form of air. The rays of light from the moon lit up the ground then slowly faded as the clouds softly ran by then started to brighten up the ground slowly as the tail of the cloud moved by till there was a clear patch of sky. The light from the blood ruby moon was the same as a normal moon but had a misty red color to anything that it touched. It was a special sight to most yet they truly didn’t understand why the moon was the color it was. Only a few people understood the meaning, They all had feared the moment that would one day come and that day is today. An evil power that was once sealed away was now awaken into the world again, A power to control. This evil would soon be noticed in the world called Norrath. No place would be safe, no one would be able to out run this evil that would soon engulf the world of Norrath with pain and death. Nothing would stand in the way of this power at all as it would have its way with norrath. But a group of people would soon stand face to face with this great power. They would be the few that could fight back and possible save Norrath like once had happen 800 years ago when this power was first born.
Chapter 2 [Village of SureFall]
It was early morning, The day after the blood moon had appeared in the sky. The sun was just coming up, shinning it light and warmth over the lands. In a small village called Surefall Glade there lived both Humans and HalfElfs. They lived together in peace, helping each other to keep the forest safe from orcs and animal poachers. Most of them study the ways of the Druid, a powerful spell caster that is able to control nature at their fingertips. While others would train to be Rangers, a deadly bow men that can always hit dead on a mark and able to fight with unbelievable speeds at close combat while having a small portion of Druid spells to cast.
There was a small lake in the village, a large hut was in the middle of it that stood up out of the water with wooden legs at each end and had a bridge that was much like a walk way lead inside. Behind the hut was a huge waterfall. The water fell freely from a 100 feet up and roared loudly as it crashed at the bottom of the lake. The sun was just coming over the top of the waterfall, casting a beautiful enchanted view to anyone that was standing in front as the mist from the water was becoming more visible do to the sun light. Through the waterfall, there was a cave that sheltered large bears to keep them safe from harm. There were many tunnels that led off to somewhere but ended up being a dead end in matter of minus.
A young HalfElf child was playing by the lake's edge, skipping stones across the water and watching the ripples it made grow larger until they clashed together making different shapes before they slowly faded away into the claim water. The child stopped for a moment to listen to the bird’s sing their morning song with happiness like every morning then went back to skipping stones. One of the stones skipped across the water, disappearing into the raining water of the waterfall while the child watched. A glimpse of two shadow figures behind the waterfall end up catching the youngster's eyes, not able make it out do to the waterfall and the Darkness that was casted inside the cave. It looked as if the two figures combined into one wide shadow across the waterfall before splitting back into two. The shadows became enlarged on the waterfall, now more clear to see it had to be two people.
Seconds later a body fell out from the cave through the waterfall back first into the lake, sending water in every direction yet the sound being covered by the ragging waterfall . The body disappeared under the misty air that was just above the water's surface. By now a few others had notice what had just happen and watched from the water’s edge. The body soon popped up out the water and pulled itself onto land quickly. It gasped for air as it was on hands and knees with its head hanging down, Water spilling off the body onto the ground quickly being absorbed. It stood up on both legs with water still dipping down its arm as a sound of laughter was heard behind the waterfall.
Out from behind the waterfall came a well built HalfElf wearing a green scaled vest and brown leather pants that covered most of his boot. A quiver was around his back filled with arrows while he held a long bow in his hand, He also had a hard black leather scabbard with a short sword hanging off of his right side. His brown hair was short, pointy ears showing clearly in view. His face was hansom but rather young looking, His green eyes looked at the other person that had its back towards him. He spoke in a rather cocky tone "Didn’t i tell you a Ranger could beat a Druid in a duel any day, Hrod?" He laughed abit more to himself as he waited for Hrod to respond.
Hrod turned around so he was facing the Ranger, his clothes drenched with water. He wore a whole leather outfit that had a hood on his shirt. He was gripping a red oak staff that was pasted down from father to child over a long time period. His hood was hanging down over his face as he stood there then moved it slowly back reveling his face. His red hair was shoulder length and patted down to his head and face do to being in the water. His face also looked rather young, Crystal blue eyes glaring at the ranger as water droplets ran down his face. He replied to him, his voice was soft and claim "Because you beat me once Chris, doesn’t mean you can always do it."
The two of them glared at each other without a word while the people around them just watched to see what would happen. After a moment, Hrod finally turned his back to chris and slowly walked off into the wooded area of the village. As he walked by the first tree, A huge white wolf came from behind it and started to follow him on the side. When he got out of View sight, he leaned against a old Apple tree and sat down on the ground. The wolf that was following him, sat down aside of him and playfully nudged him in the shoulder. He looked at the wolf with a half smile on his face then started to scratch behind the wolf's ear. The wolf respond with a happy tail wag and light panting. "Well sunami, it looks like chris is going rub this victory in my face, knowing him" He was close to being bone dry do to the sunlight hitting down on him though the patches between the trees.
Chris appeared in front of Hrod and Sunami, still holding his long bow in hand. "Good duel, You almost had me a few time with that lightning spell, but you still lost" The wolf let out a low tone growl towards chris, only to be quieted by hrod with a light paw on the head. "Don't let it go to your head, you may get a few wins later down the road but it doesn't mean that it will happen all the time" Chris smirked at this before putting the bow on his back then asked in a joking way "what ever gave you the idea that im going let it go to my head?" Hrod rolled his eyes abit when chris said that then replied "Because that how you are, You win and you have a habit of rubbing it in peoples faces." He smirked to himself as he stood up off the ground "Next time you wont be so lucky to beat me." The two of them glared back and forth only to smile and laugh abit out loud.
They headed back into the village together with the wolf following behind them until they got close to the huts. Sunami stopped by a tree then hidden from view of others while Chris and Hrod walked into a hut. Inside was oak table with chairs around it, a bed with silk blankets that laid upon it, and a old clock that seem not to work anymore. It was a normal standard hut that most lived in by themselves, this one happen to be Chris's hut that he took well cared of. Each took a chair and sat down at different ends of the bare table to talk about what they were going do tomorrow. The agreed they would help out tomorrow with the gnoll problem in Black Burrow that been planning attacks on SureFall.
Hrod slowly got up and left the hut almost hours later. When he got outside he notice it was dark already and the moon light was the only thing that lit the ground up that aloud anyone to see. He followed the path till he got to his own hut then headed inside for the night. The hut was much like Chris only the wooden floor was covered with a rug that he had bought in Qeynos on his small trip. He laid his staff against the bed before taken the heavy leather shirt off and putting it on a chair. Climbing into bed, he wonder what would happen tomorrow in Black Burrow seeing how the gnolls have a history of sneak attacking anyone that dared enter their home. He closed his eyes and drifted asleep peacefully, Entering a dream that would soon seem to haunt him.
