Darius was carried to his room by the guards."Samuel, go fetch the physician." the king ordered."I am sorry my lord, the physician went out to get some herbs." Samuel said looking apologetic.Darius screamed even louder in pain."Well send someone to fetch him immediately." the king ordered."I am afraid that won't be possible, he went to the neighboring kingdom. It would take hours to get him and hours for him to come back, I don't think he can't wait that long" Samuel replied referring to Darius.The king looked at Darius who was currently screaming in pain very loudly, his parents who stood by his bedside looking very worried. He had never felt so helpless in his life before."What can we do then?" he asked Samuel."I have a remedy which the physician prescribed for me when I was suffering from stomach ache too, should I fetch it so it can be given to him?" Darius asked."please go ahead and fetch it quickly." Sir Reginald answered even before the king replied.Samuel instructed
"When did the Leviathan possess your mother?" Kayden asked."I don't know when exactly but I knew when I was ten, she started giving me a potion to drink, the potion always strengthened me and gave me the energy to walk and do other basic things, she never told me where she got the potion though. Then she started to change, she would be standoffish one day and timid the other day. She couldn't remember specific things anymore. I think she was possessed around that time." Darius replied."Then two years ago, she persuaded you to let the Leviathan possess you right?" Samuel prodded."yes, she told me that it would make me stronger and I would be better at sword fighting and other things that would impress my father. I guess she was right about that part. I agreed because I just wanted to impress him." Darius said with a bitter smile."Then you realized that it was a mistake and you tried to fight it." Kayden asked."Yes, I did. But I was too weak to fight it so I could only bide my time
They came back from hunting, all the men looked angry except for Kayden who was relieved that no animal had been killed in front of him."I just don't get it, why didn't we catch a single animal?" Aidan questioned."Maybe today is not a good day, my lord." Kayden told him.Aidan looked at him suspiciously, "or maybe you had something to do with it."Kayden's heart skipped a beat, had Aidan caught him earlier using magic? but he had tried to be careful back then."Me?" he asked trying not to let his nervousness show."Yes, you.""How my lord?""You are too loud, your breathing must have scared off the animals."Kayden breathed in relief, "I will try to be more careful next time, my lord."Aidan scoffed and rode off to the stable.Darius rode up to Kayden. "You sly little thing. Aidan will have your head if he ever finds out what you did."Kayden smiled at him cheekily, "It's a good thing I was very careful."Darius shook his head at him. "See you later tonight." he said. "see you." Ka
"Who are you to tell me that?" Lady Martha fumed in anger. She looked at Darius only to see him moving backwards."Son, attack him!" she ordered."I am not your son." Darius told her.Lady Martha looked at him in shock, then she looked into his eyes. "Where is my son, what did you do to him?"She flew forward and grabbed Darius by his neck. Kayden held the sword, then he started to chant spells, he didn't know how he knew the spells but they felt familiar to him. His eyes shone blue and the wind whipped around him very fast. Lady Martha screamed and released Darius and lay on the ground shaking. The Leviathan left her body and Kayden quickly trapped it. Lady Martha's empty body fell on the floor. Darius and Samuel rushed to her, she opened her eyes weakly and looked at them. "Thank you." she told Samuel and Kayden. "I love you my boy and I am so sorry for everything." she told Darius. "It's okay mother." Darius told her. She smiled at him fondly before closing her eyes for the
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
Thirty years later..........Thirty years had passed since the execution of the sorcerers. Rivena had flourished under King Adam's rule.He had married a beautiful woman and they had gave birth to a son, the name of their son was Aidan and he was to be the future king of Rivena.Aidan was loved by both his father and mother very much, he was doted and loved by everyone in the kingdom.Aidan was the best warrior in the land, there was nobody who could beat him, this was a fact that greatly pleased his father.King Adam still kept up the hunt for sorcerers in the land, he was determined to completely eradicate his land from sorcerers.....................Today was Aidan's Nineteenth birthday, his father was determined to give him the best party. No expenses were to be spared for the birthday party."Don't you think all this is too much?" Aidan asked his mother as he looked at the grand robes on the bed which he was to wear."I don't think so at all. You are the prince and future king o
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
The next morning Samuel woke up to find that Kayden was already awake. He looked around, his room was looking very neat and tidy.He looked at Kayden, "have you been up for long?""yes uncle, I always wake up very early. Mother calls me her little early bird." Kayden replied cheerily."I am sure she does." Samuel said.He stood up and picked up the little bottle on his table, he handed it to Kayden.Kayden took the bottle and examined it looking very confused."what is this for?" he asked."It's an eye drop to change your eye color" Samuel informed him."why do I need to change my eye color, mother always said she loves my eyes, she called me her little ocean blue" Kayden said.Samuel sighed tiredly again, "I am sure she did, and I am sure she also had a lot of pet names she called you as well but I don't want you to draw attention to yourself, your eyes are too shiny we need to dull it" he explained patiently.Kayden pouted, "come on, it won't be permanent. For now, let's just dull i
