Sabariel Ryul's Story

Looking at his surroundings Saxton felt a power that he hadn't for some time. Magic of someone else it was a welcoming feeling yet it brought a lot of sadness bringing memories that he didn't want to have. "Maybe this land will hold something that will bring me peace that I've been seeking. This land seems peaceful enough but looks can be deceiving." Saxton stopped at in the woods where he thinks he can rest for the night "This will do for now I think" Saxton set up camp and and fell asleep. Something in the middle of the night stirred him from his sleep, whispers from people looking through his stuff. He slowly opened his eyes and looked at the people. Two of them, two thieves
"Lets hurry and take care of him before he wakes up"
"Agreed"
Saxton stood up staring at the two thieves "Will you please let me get some rest I just stopped walking from a whole days worth of walking and I'm tired" The thieves took out knives and smiled the first one laughing a bit "We know who you are from looking through your stuff and looking at that scar on your face you are the Demon of Grimes, fire mage outlaw and you got a big price on your head. I think we will take your head and take that price and people will fear us cause we kille..." Before the thief could stop talk Saxton took his sword covered it in flames and cut him in half then turned to the other thief and turned him into ash "Well looks like another night of walking for me. Maybe I will come across an Inn and can get some rest there." Looking at the thief he cut in half "I'm sure he has money on him that I can use" Saxton cleaned his blade and sheathed it then gathered his stuff and started walking again looking for the road so he can find the nearest inn.

Sabariel walked into the capitol of Fenarin staring at the castle "It looks nicer than my castle, probably cause my castle still needs to be repaired from the war." Looking at her surroundings "I wonder how much they know? I guess its know of my business anyways. Focus Sabariel I need to go the castle and talk to the Ruler tell him or her that I am her to help in their time of need and to ask for help finding The Demon. Only one problem, No one has told me what he looks like or his real name. Only things I know about him are his eyes glow red when he uses magic, is a fire mage, and is really young for an elf." Sabariel sighed and continued walking towards the castle.

Saxton walked onto the road and brushed some leaves off of his clothing. "I hope an inn is nearby so that I don't have to worry to much about other things" He looked at a sign "I have no idea what that even says but I will just make a lucky guess and go this way" Saxton started to walk down the road hoping that it would take him to an inn or some place that he could at least stay at for the night. After walking for awhile he could see a village "At last a village, and that building looks like it could the inn, at last some rest and relaxation" he walked until he was in front of the building that he thought was an inn "Yup this is an inn no doubt about it" He walked into the Inn
"Another visitor?" A woman was cleaning one of the tables and smiled "How can i help you sir?"
Saxton bowed his head "I need a room, a good nights rest, and a tasty breakfast"
She smiled "Of course one moment and I will get your room key" The woman walked into a different room for a minute then came back out with a key your room is number 4 yup the stairs it is the second room on the left" She gave the key to Saxton
Taking the key "Thank you" Saxton walked up the stairs to his room unlocked the door set his stuff down, he locked the door then laid down on the bed and fell asleep

-------
Sabariel walked up to one of the guards "Please tell me the name of your Ruler" The guard stared at her like she was crazy "Do I need to repeat myself?"
"Sorry Miss our Ruler is Princess soon to be Queen Tayia Fenarin"
"Thank you, now can you please inform her that I Sabariel Ryul the Queen of Grimes am here to speak with her and make it quick I have a lot on my mind that I need to tell her"
The guard was surprised by this "Yes your majesty, also would you like to wait inside for Princess Tayia?"
"Yes" The guard lead Sabariel to the throne room
"Please wait here while I look for her" the guard walked off looking for Tayia.
"There is to much on my mind" Sabariel stood there thinking about different things.

"The stairs will probably help me figure out how to walk again if I just watch where I step and not fall, highness." Masenai stated to the Princess in a formal manner. With that he slowly walked with her up the stairs towards the main area of the castle. "But I also have questions, questions about what happened to your family, how did you lose your brother, all this and more."

He slowly looked around the castle area as he shut his eyes at the brightly lit interior of the main area of the castle. "Ow! What a bright castle you have your highness." Masenai complimented. "Can you try to take me to your father or is he still probably saving as much strength he can?" He asked in a hopeful tone for any clues that might help the warrior figure out what happened to him. At that thought he thought he saw someone in the throne room with pointed ears and long blonde hair. "Tayia? It looks like someone is here for you. An Elvahn royal by the looks of it." Masenai said with a note of curiosity about him once more. "That's one thing that's familiar to me. Elves."

He chuckled a bit before almost losing his balance again. "Okay, My walking has improved, but self balance, not so much." He stated in a disappointed tone.

Saxton woke up in a different room holding his chest "What?" Looking around the room "This is my room, am I reliving the past?" A lady shouted up the stairs "Saxton come down here and do your chores before you go and train" Saxton got up and smiled "I will start my chores right away mom" Saxton got dressed and walk down stairs. Everyday started the same for him his mother would tell him to do his chores which was just to go take care of the animals they had then he went to train with his sword and his magic after finishing his chores Saxton woke up in the inn "Why did I dream about the past? Why did I dream about that day?" Saxton walked down the stairs and asked for some breakfast he sat down at a table and the lady handed him some eggs
"There is someone who wants to talk to you before you leave he is sleeping right now but he might wake up soon"

-------
Sabariel was approached by a guard "Queen Sabariel, Princess Tayia will meet you in the conference hall shortly. Please follow me" The guard lead her to the conference hall after they got there he left "Who was the man that I saw the Princess with and why did he look so tired? Its none of my business who he was" She sat down and waited for Tayia

Saxton looked up at the stranger "I don't mind" Saxton finished his meal and smiled turning to the lady "This is the best meal I've had in weeks" Turning back towards the stranger "I'm Saxton Derin"

-------
Sabariel gave a slight bow when Tayia walked into the room then stood up "I have come to give you my help during this war, now to answer a question before you can ask it is the reason why it is just me here. My kingdom was just in a war that lasted 10 years, I'm sure you have heard about it. Well the war ended 4 years ago and my armies is to spread out in my kingdom that I can not gather them to help." Sitting back down she continued "There is another reason why I didn't bring my armies, there is an outlaw in your kingdom known as The Demon of Grimes, he is an elf fire mage who eyes glow red when he uses his magic and there are to many soldiers with injured pride that would gladly kill him if they ever met him. I'm seeking him out cause he would be a great ally in this war and the reason he is an outlaw was a mistake that should of never happened. Only one problem however I don't know what the Demon of Grimes looks like or what his name is, I barely know anything about him" Sabariel frowned a bit "There are to many problems and to many complications but if we can find The Demon of Grimes then this kingdom chances grow. I talk to much sometimes"

"So you want to know what my history is?" Saxton smiled "First time someone wanted to know about me, well this will take awhile to tell you." Saxton stood up and walked over to the lady paying for his room and the food then payed for two drinks, when he came back he put down two drinks one in front of Calvin and one in front of himself "My story started ten years ago in the kingdom of Grimes, there was a war that started four years before that when people wanted the Queen at that time dead. Mostly it was magic users that were fighting against that Queen I would tell you her name but I don't know what it is. So ten years ago I found a rock that was shaped like an egg." Saxton's hand touched a pouch at his side then took a sip of his drink "The rock woke something up inside of me, fire magic something that I didn't want to use during the war time so I practiced in secret after my chores and after I trained with a sword. Six years my life was like that until we found out that the war ended with the new Queen taking the thrown, Queen Sabariel; oldest daughter of the late queen. Soon after the war ended, I went to the village elder and told him about my magic and he said he would help me be able to control it better to be able to become a powerful fire magi and he did train me for a few weeks. Then on my eighteenth birthday four years ago something happen that no one saw coming. A purge, a law that said that all magic users were to die and a most of them did die, soldiers came to my village and killed my friends my family everyone in the village, everyone but me." Saxton took another sip "I killed every soldier that came to the village in rage and anger, with fire magic that none had seen before. I am the only known living magi of Grimes, I am "The Demon of Grimes" named cause my eyes glow red when I use my magic. I am sure that there are other magi from Grimes that lived but not of them are as famous as I. Well I found out two years ago that the Queen killed her advisers for tricking her to pass a law that was meant to be a simple ban into a purge of the magic users." Saxton looked around the room and noticed everyone left "Well people know that "The Demon of Grimes" is here, what will they do with that knowledge?"

"Where the Demon is all I know is that he is in your kingdom, and even though I don't know what he looks like he should stand out cause he is an elf and there aren't that many in your kingdom. Do I know if he will be willing to help us, sadly I don't know but I do need to say I'm sorry to him for the pained I caused him. His entire village was destroyed and his family was killed. I'm sure if he knows that I seek his forgiveness for the mistake that I did and that I would do almost anything to make it up to him, that he will help in this war." Sabariel stood up "Do you have anything that I could eat? I'm rather hungry"
