The Kingdom of Rivena was a very prosperous city, it was blessed with a lot of natural resources and was the envy of all the kingdoms around.The kingdom hadn't always been like this though, in the past the Kingdom had been in total chaos and anarchy. This was when the dragons had ruled the sky and the sorcerers walked freely and did magic.Those who could do magic were the gods of the city. The non magic users were used as slaves. This was a very hard time, majority of the sorcerers were proud and egoistic and often engaged in petty fights. The casualties of these petty fights were the common people.The most powerful sorcerer was named Zarall, he was so powerful that even if all the sorcerers in the kingdom came together, they wouldn't be able to defeat him.Zarall wasn't interested in their petty fights, all he wanted to do was to practice magic in his home quietly. The other sorcerers tried several times to bring him over to their side but it was of no use, he declined all of thei

Samuel the head butler of the palace retired to his chambers. He was very tired and wanted nothing more than to collapse into his bed and sleep.There was a knock on the door, with a frown he went to open the door, whoever was at the other end better have a good excuse for disturbing him."Samuel, there is a visitor here for you. He said that you were expecting him" the servant on the other side of the door informed him.Samuel frown went deeper, he wasn't expecting anyone."Where is this person?" he asked."in the receiving area, my lord""let's go there" he told the servant.The servant led the way and they headed to the receiving area. "there he is" the servant pointed.Samuel looked towards the direction of the servant's finger. He saw a young boy, he looked to be around seventeen or eighteen. He had obviously been drenched by the rain which had started earlier this evening."Are you sure he said he was looking for me?" Samuel asked the servant doubtfully."yes, he mentioned your

Aidan opened his door and walked inside while Kayden and Phil followed him inside."You are to report here every morning, your job is to get me breakfast,lunch and dinner, prepare my bathwater, wash my clothes, mend them if they should need washing, polish my shoes and armor, carry my weapons when I go hunting or when I am in battle. As time goes on, I will think of other duties for you." Aidan told Kayden."Damn Aidan, you should just give him the whole palace work. It's too much for him." Phil objected."Well he is the one who wants to be my servant, isn't he?" Aidan retorted."that doesn't mean that you should overwork him." Phil said."if he can't handle it, he can just quit now" Aidan said as he looked at Kayden with a challenging look."I can handle it, my lord." Kayden said confidently.Aidan looked at Phil triumphantly."See, he isn't complaining at all." Phil sighed in defeat. Aidan brought out his armor and all the clothes in the wardrobe both the clean and dirty ones and g

Kayden stood in the corner with Phil and watched as Aidan and Darius dueled. Phil had been practicing with them but he had decided to back out of duel."I have never met anyone as obsessed with fighting like Aidan is" Phil said to Kayden."It's important for him as a prince to be able to defend himself and the kingdom" Kayden replied."But I am not a prince or a future king, why does he have to force me to practice." Phil complained.Kayden laughed a little at Phil's sad face.Aidan looked over and saw Kayden laughing."Do you care to share the joke Kayden?" he asked.Kayden looked up to see Aidan staring at him and his laugh ceased immediately."My lord?""What's so funny that you are laughing?" Aidan asked again."I was telling him a joke about how you used to run around the palace naked." Phil spoke up.Aidan glared at Phil. "Since you can make jokes, I am sure you can duel another round before we go inside."Phil groaned and picked up his sword. He whispered to Kayden. "if I die,

Kayden hid in the corner and watched them, what were they doing outside by this time of the night."Did you get the information from Aidan?""Yes mother. The keys to the storage are with him. I just have to find a way to get it.""Good, that sword contains so much power that is beneficial to us." lady Martha said."how long do we have to remain here mother? I am tired of this body. I can feel his pathetic soul struggling with me trying to regain control." Darius said."Soon my son, once we get the sword, we will be powerful enough to tear the veil and return home. I am also tired of this unattractive body." Lady Martha said."Tomorrow night, I will open the storage and get the sword then we can both leave." Darius said."I can't wait to be back home." lady Martha said in glee.Kayden watched as they talked about their plans more before retiring to bed. As they walked back, Lady Martha passed a window, the moonlight reflected on her and her true nature was revealed.Kayden covered his
