"Why is this valley so big! This is all your fault Fye!"

Rio was complaining as he and Fye flew through the valley. It was massive and it stretched out for miles. Rio was beginning to grow tired from the constant traveling as they were trying to find a way out of the valley.

Looking out as far as he could, Rio felt like he could see something.

"Yes! Go that way quickly! I don't care what's over there, but as long as it's not another valley filled with nothing, I'll take it. Just hurry." Rio said as he began flying faster, wanting to reach the end as soon as possible.

Fye flew behind him, her eyes closed as she focused on controlling their flight path.

It wasn't long before they reached what Rio had seen in the distance.

A large array of mountains were straight ahead.

They were huge, reaching high into the sky, the highest peak easily reaching over 10 miles into the air.

What the hell? How did I not see this earlier? These things are massive!

Rio said to himself as

    Rio entered the castle watching as the others bowed before him. He wasn't sure why this was the case but simply assumed that he was some kind of noble in this world. Walking down the luxurious halls, Rio entered into the chamber that he had seen Rhama disappear into. Entering the room, he was met with the sight of the beautiful woman sitting at a desk obscured by mountains of papers. "Have you come to watch me work again?." she asked as she looked up at him. Nodding his Head Rio sat beside her, watching her hastily move through the stack of documents. "It's been quite a while since we've last spent time together, my son. I'm sorry I haven't been able to spend time with you lately." she said with a smile, caressing her slender hand down his back. "But with all of this conflict, things have been rough.The Humans have been far more active than normal." Rio thought to himself how he was going to bring these two races together. How could he possibly stop a war between the werewolves

    Rhama, was led into the camp when one of the soldiers leading her, put his hands around his mouth. "Prince Alexander!" He called out. "Yes? What is it?" He responded, turning just slightly so that the man was within his vision. "We have a guest here that would like to spend the night within our care. Do you know how we might accommodate her?"the soldier said, his voice low so as not to be heard by the other soldiers around him. "Hmm? A guest? this far away from civilization?" Alexander asked suspiciously before turning to meet the gaze of the guest. His heart skipped a beat at the sight of the beautiful woman standing before him, allowing no other words to escape his mouth. "Ahem, I believe that it would be best for me to take over. I'm going to have to ask her a few questions before I can allow her to stay within the camp." Alexander said quickly while clearing his throat. The soldier nodded his head as he stepped aside to allow Alexander to take over. "Please follow me." Alex

    Sensing footsteps approaching, Rio wakes from his sleep, shaking Rhama awake as well before hastily entering into the void. "Morning lady Rhama? Are you awake?" "Good morning. Yes, I'm awake." Rhama answers, her voice sounding sleepy and soft. "I trust that you slept well?" Alexander asks with a warm smile. "Yes, thank you for asking. Is it time for us to depart?" Rhama says with a bright smile before yawning. "Not quite. We still have another hour until we begin packing everything up. I actually came by to ask if you would like to join us for breakfast. I know that it will be a long trip ahead and it would be nice to get to know you better." Alexander explains sheeply as his voice softens. "Yes, that would be lovely." Rhama says with a giggle. "Wonderful! then I will show you the way." Alexander joyfully exclaims, opening the tents vestibule before quickly shutting them back tightly. "I am extremely sorry my lady! I was not aw

    While Rhama and Alexander are preoccupied in their breakfast conversation, conflict had begun brewing back in the werewolf's territory. Their queen, along with her son had yet to return and tensions were rising. "You better hold your tongue Parocly! What your saying can be considered mockery of the crown!" one of the werewolves shouted. Parocly raised his voice in response. "We have waited for long enough Kade! She will not return! Face it. She has abandoned her people! We must find another way to survive in this world without her." Kade was taken aback by the bold words spoken by the werewolf. "I don't think that will be necessary. She will return, I'm sure of it." Parocly scoffs. "I doubt that. She was never worthy of wearing the crown and you know it. The old queen would have torn the land asunder, putting those pathetic humans in their places. She would have made us the dominant species here. Not these shells of our former selves, constant

The box chimes with disappointment. Rio picks up the stone and puts it in his mouth with immense dissatisfaction. "That was a waste of 5 coins." Rio grumbles. "Come on, give me something good." Rio takes another 5 coins and puts them into the box, watching as it begins to shake once more. The box continues to shake for another minute until the box stops shaking. A large stone is then ejected from the box. Rio looks down at the stone to see what this one is. at the very least, it looks more promising than the last one. The stone is dark purple with a small crack running through it. [Soul stone-Fill with your energy and see what's inside.] "Biiig Winner!!" "Yes, yes, I know.

    Alexander sneaks his way throughout the camp, and quickly notices his sword. It was currently in the hands of one of the tribesmen. The man looked like he was analyzing the blade of light with great curiosity. The man had begun moving his fingers in the air, causing runes to appear around the blade. The man then began speaking in a language that Alexander didn't understand but he knew it would be trouble. Whatever the man was trying to do with his blade would undoubtedly be bad news. He rushes into the room to the tribesman's surprise. Before they could react, Alexander kicks the man in the stomach causing him to drop the sword and making his runes dissipate. He quickly picks up the blade before the man can recover, and turns to defend himself from the many tribesmen who are rushing into the tent. They begin attacking Alexander as he dodges their attacks. "Damn, these guys are tough." Alexander thinks as he blocks a spear thrusting at his chest. "If I don't get out of here soon I

    Rio and Rhama continue riding with the envoy while under the constant stares of Alexander. The rife was peaceful and only helped to bring the two together while Rio watched on in satisfaction. Everything seemed to have been coming along perfectly. It wouldn't be long now until he was able to complete the trial and continue up the mountain. "This is a nice change from my typical frantic pace." Rio says as he watches the scenery pass by. "I could get used to more easy missions like this." Rio sat back and relaxed as their wagon ascended the hills when the sounds of yelling were heard from up ahead. The yelling startled Alexander causing him to lose focus on Rhama. Looking out from the wagon, they could see a large city, under fire. Smoke was rising high into the sky from the fires that had broken out. "What's happening here?" Rio thinks as he looks around confused. He can tell that something is terribly wrong as Alexander's face was pale white with fear

    "Who the hell are you!" Parocly shouts at Rio. His body has begun seeping the dark aura as he approaches Rio. "He has nothing to do with this. Leave my son alone!" Rhama shouts as she swings towards Parocly who easily catches her hand. "Son? I've been in this trial for months. You never had a-... Oho, I see what's going on now." Parocly laughs as he looks back and forth between Rio and Rhama. "You must be another apostle just like me! But You can't be a follower of Lord Zenith, or you wouldn't have fought against this war." Parocly was deep in thought as he threw Rhama to the side. "Well, whoever you belong to doesn't matter. This trial's reward will be mine and there's nothing you can do to stop it. With the powers given to me by my lord, Nothing shall stand in my way ever again." Parocly then holds his arms up as dark mist envelops the air around him.

    Hiro focuses his mana and summons a barrier around himself while Rio rains down fire on the crowd of Larissa clones. Rio's orbs tear through the clones like paper. Each one falling to the ground after receiving a direct hit from Rio's barrage. The sound of impact echoes across the area as dozens more clones fall to the ground dead or dying. Seeing the destruction that the wolf was able to cause in such a small amount of time, Larissa gasps in amazement. "This is what it means to have real power. I'll definitely make you mine." Larissa whispers softly. Her eyes glow brightly with excitement as she approaches Rio. "Come on now, come to mama." She charges forward at him, avoiding the fire coming from above Rio. As she gets closer, He readies himself. Stabbing her dagger towards RIo, Hiro swiftly moves in to block the strike with his sword and slashes downward towards her. Larissa dodges the slash effortlessly but her eyes widen in shock when Hiro grabs her arm with his free hand.

    Turning her attention back to Hiro, Larissa places a finger to her chin thoughtfully. "I think I'll take my sweet time getting rid of you first. Then I can take my time with your companion," With that Larissa teleports behind Hiro and wraps her arms around his neck. Hiro struggles against her grasp but finds it difficult as he can feel his power fading as she takes hold on him. Hiro continues to struggle against her, until Fye sends Larissa crashing to the floor. Hiro quickly distances himself from Larissa to catch his breath and as he does so Larissa steps out from the crater left from her landing. "I'm going to ask that you don't interrupt me when I'm working, young lady. I will get to you when it is your turn. In the meantime, How about you play with these guys." Larissa snaps her fingers causing the ground to shake. From within the earth rise several zombies which crawl out from the soil. Each zombie stands tall and menacing with rotting flesh covering their bodies. "Now t

    The First General

    6 months fly by as Hiro continues his training under Gaius. With every passing day, Hiro becomes more comfortable with using his magic. Rio was worried when their training had begun taking longer than he had hoped but, his worries faded when he looked at how much time he had left. Despite being in the trial for 6 months It seemed to have only been around 6 days outside. And with all this time Rio was able to reap the benefits of Gaius's training as Hiro was becoming more and more powerful. Hiro was now at a state where even Gaius was beginning to have trouble handling him, and Gaius knew that Zack would be ready to head out into the world. Gaining permission from the king, Gaius gave Hiro a set of armor and weapons. Hiro wore the outfit proudly as he headed out to the castle's entrance. There he met Zack who was waiting for him. Once they arrived, Hiro was given a map with a destination marked on it. Zack told him that this was a place known as the city of the dead. According to

    Gaius walks out into the field and tosses his spear at Hiro. He fumbles with the weapon for a bit until it finally slips from his grasp and bangs against the ground. "Don't break it now. I only have one of those" Gaius chuckles as he watches Hiro pick the spear up from the ground. As soon as Hiro picks up the spear, Gaius plants his feet and stares down the boy. "Come on now, don't make me wait too long. Just come and give me your best shot. Hiro swallows nervously and clenches his fists tightly as he stares at Gaius. He had spent the previous night practicing how to use his power defensively but had failed to learn how to use it offensively. Knowing that his best choice would be to just try his best, Hiro runs at him with the spear in hand. He wields the weapon clumsily as he rushes at Gaius. Before he can make contact, however, Gaius blocks Hiro's path by raising his arms to block the attack. Gaius grips him by the neck and throws his body back to where he started. "I know y

    The next morning, Rio and Hiro hurry to the training grounds as per Zack's request. Hiro's eyes were red and swollen from lack of sleep. His hair looked messy as if he hadn't washed it recently either. Despite these signs, his face remained full of determination as he faced off against his mentor. Gaius was already waiting for them when they arrived. He stood tall and proud with his spear held by his side. "By the look of you, I'm guessing that you didn't get much sleep." Gaius states bluntly as he looks over Hiro. Hiro shakes his head in response. "I might not have gotten much sleep, But you will see the impact of all of my efforts soon." Hiro explains confidently. Gaius narrows his eyes slightly before responding. "Cockiness is not an attractive trait, But I will allow you a bit of pride if what you say is true. Now then, How about you prove to me how strong you are today?" Gaius says as he steps forward with his spear raised high above his head. Without hesitation, Hiro readi

    "Again!...Again!...AGAIN!!!" Gaius shouts as he continuously slams his spear and fist into Hiro. Hiro groans as he pushes himself up to his feet yet again. Not giving up, Hiro takes the beating while attempting to draw on the power from before. But no matter how many times he tries it, Hiro remains unable to protect himself. Gaius smacks Hiro upside the head with his free hand, sending him flying through the air and crashing into a training dummy. Hiro hits the wooden structure with such force that it cracks beneath his weight before collapsing entirely. "Damnit!" Gaius curses as he runs over to Hiro and picks him up off the floor. "Maybe we should take a quick break. If we continue at this pace, you won't live long enough to even see real combat." Gaius sighs while dusting Hiro off. "We'll come back tomorrow when your wounds have healed. Until then, I want you to keep practicing on manifesting your power." Hiro nods in agreement with his exhausted body. As Gaius walks away from

"Gaius, this is the Hero that we mentioned before. He will be joining us in the near future. And we have much work ahead of us before then."Gaius bows his head respectfully and nods his head in greeting. He then turns his attention back to Hiro as he extends his hand.

    The rest of the day passes by smoothly with Rio and Fye focusing on their given tasks while Hiro rests in the bed. Then next morning, Rio is awakened to the sound of a knock coming from outside the room. It takes a moment for his eyes to adjust to the light as he sits up in his bed and orders Hiro to open the door. As soon as Hiro opens the door, Rio spots a man dressed in a black robe and holding a book in his hand. He seems familiar to Rio as he stands there in front of the door. "He must have been one of the men accompanying the king earlier." Rio figured as he stretched out his body. "Good morning hero." The man says to Hiro while giving a slight bow. "I hope that your night was well." The robed man adds after seeing Fye sitting in the corner of the room. "Yeah it was pretty good. I was able to get some sleep. Hiro tells the man in response as he invites him inside. "Rio had given Hiro the ability to answer independently for the time being. Although he wanted full control o

    The two of them are led to a bedroom with large windows that overlook the city. The city is bustling and filled with people and traffic. As Rio and the young boy enter the room and close the door, the young boy begins to take a seat upon the bed. As Rio and the boy sit on the edge of the bed and face each other, the king begins to speak. "This will be where you will be staying during your time with us in the grand kingdom of Chania. I will allow you some time to rest for the day as you will be busy tomorrow as we help you gain control of your new powers. Have a good night, Hero." The king leaves the room and closes the door, leaving Rio and the young boy alone to take in their surroundings. As soon as they are alone, Rio activates his domination to gain control over the boy. With full control of his powers returned to him, Rio figures that it's in his best interest to take the reins personally in this trial. Especially if the boy's powers turn out to be of use to him. He was sti
