Recommended Posts

this was just a story that I HAD been writing, I figured you guys might like it if your of the fantasy/mideveil kind of person.

 

Chapter One, Old Memories.

 

The winds howled and the rain slashed at a tiny village huddled on the banks of a rushing, wild river. Sky blue eyes peered innocently around as a boy looked around a corner of a door. A mother hurried into a house a three riders, robed in Black emblazoned with red crosses across there chests and shoulders, rode in and slowed their mounts to a halt. A tall figure clothed in a pure white robe approaches from the local Chapel.

"Where are the sleepers?" barked the rider in the middle.

 

"Died in the wars of old" replied the man robbed in white replied.

 

"Don't give me that pile of beast dung! Steltskin!" he barked, and the rider named Steltskin dismounted from the horse on the right. and started to bring out young men no older than 13 passes. "Ryan, Assist him." The unnamed rider ordered. The rider named Ryan dismounts, and proceeds to go about the same business as Stelskin.

 

"I will not let you take away the hope of the future." The white robbed man gritted through his teeth as he stood in the way of both riders.

 

"Ignore him." The unnamed rider stated, appearing to become annoyed with the man like a person does with a persistent insect.

"As you wish Lord Morden." The riders reply in a chant like voice, the rider named

 

Ryan attempted to shove the white robbed man out of the way, but the man only stood firm and made no move to walk from his spot. Then Stelskin threw his fist into the mans stomach. Making him keel over, unconciouse. Ryan didn't seem to notice as he just went to the next house, and pulled a boy out despite the mothers protests. The sky blue eyes that had so innocently peered out from before now looked in fear at the man holding his arm.

"This one has potential," Called Ryan back to his lord Morden. "He would do well in His Lords army."

 

"then bring him along..." He said and then after a moment he added "And kill the dam, she is no longer any use to us."

 

"You can't do that!" the child said defiantly as he broke away from Ryan's grasp and stepped in between Steltzkin and the woman.

 

"You do not have a say in this child," Lord Morden said through gritted teeth. "Steltskin, move aside."

 

"Yes m'lord." Stelskin replied, then stepped to the side.

 

"You don't seem to understand boy," replied the Lord as he dismounted and approached the child, "Just who exactly you are dealing with. Then without warning, the rider rushed at the child with a sword of eternal blackness drawn.

 

 

 

Rillex sat bolt up right as lightning flashed, lighting a small room with sparse belongings, a straw pallet, and a small side table. Fumbling at the side table, Rillex produced a flame from a match and lit a small candle. lifting it, memories of the dream came swarming back. It was like some nagging bee in the back of his mind, wanting to burst out and embrace him. Even though every time he reached for it, it seemed to run away. Stuffing those thoughts to the back of his head, he shoved his legs down some trousers, brought a tunic up over his head, and headed to the kitchen.

 

The smell of sulfur was present as he stepped on the cold ground of the kitchen, Father insisted that he keep his boots by the kitchen door leading to the smithy. Hardly noticing the smell, he walked over to the large cabinet with there food supplies, bringing out pre-made flour, he set it on the counter. He started whistling an odd tune as he slipped into his elk hide boots,and headed out to the chicken coop, and upon collecting a few eggs, he headed back inside.

 

"Morn'n Rillex!." Said a Gaint cheerful man with black smeers on variouse parts of his hands and face.

 

"Morning father." Said rillex, "Do you want some eggs with your toast?"

 

"That would be nice," Replied the man, "Do i have a choice between poached or scrambled?""
