Snippet #2733401

The Dragon Swordsman was imprisoned. He was in a cell in the dungeon of Korina castle. He was going to investigate the Dark Tyrant who rules here, but it seems bad luck has waylaid this plan, and resulted in his current predicament. His sword is possibly being researched by court magicians or witches.

Witches. That could possibly be his poor luck. A Witch took his best friend away from him. A Witch ruined his life. A Witch-

“Hello little boy. I thought I recognized you. It took me a minute or so to figure you out.” Came an old voice. He looked at the cell across from him and saw an old woman.

“I... don’t think we met.” He said in response to her.

“Why sweetie, how could you forget me? Is it because I lost my beauty and powers? I nearly had you dear boy, but I had to settle for your friend.” Now his eyes widened. He knew who she was, and it angered him. He roared out in anger, trying to reach her. She cackled a bit as guards suddenly appeared, opening his cell and hitting the bars to quiet the now powerless Witch.

“Good luck facing my apprentice. She’s more powerful then me!” She yelled as they escorted Cain Azura to the hall of the Monarch of Korina.

It felt like minutes when they finally arrived at the meeting place of the Tyrant. “Here is the Dragon Swordsman, my lady.” Said a Guard. “He struggled a bit because the hag distracted him.”

“So you’re the Dark Tyrant,” Cain muttered. “It’s bad enough I received a reminder of my Failure, but it’s another to face the apprentice of the woman who made me this way!” He glared towards the woman but his anger changed to shock as his eyes widened. He saw her white hair, her now grown body, and the most striking feature, the cat ears on top of her head.

His head began to spin, his mind hurt. “Ame....Amethyst?” He muttered before fainting.
