Jalen's Quest
The sun rose over the peaceful kingdom of Meleville. Leon, the head wizard, was in the highest tower in the castle of Meleville, looking across the sky, towards the southern valley kingdom. It was beyond several mountains, a lake, and a great expanse of thick forest. The rulers of the southern kingdom each had accomplished little to benefit their country as a whole. After the last ruler, a new ruler came to power; however, this one was not like the others. He commanded his forces with great intensity, but something was not quite right about him. He seemed like a dark and secluded individual at times, and he didn’t always do what was best for the people. Like all the previous rulers, he had his own selfish ambitions as well. The southern kingdom began to fall away from its past greatness and slowly started to plunge into a darker era than its people had ever experienced. The new, mysterious ruler was to blame for this, but he controlled everything from the mountains to the southern shores and no one overruled him. This began to worry Leon, and the rest of the Meleville magicians as well. It excited his master apprentice, Jalen, a young, adventurous boy that was learning from Leon. He always wanted to go
“So, you five have come all the way to my glorious kingdom, and for what? Everything is under control here. I can guarantee you that the peoples of this village are perfectly happy under MY rule.” exploring and journeying rather than studying to become a master magician. Leon knew this, and he also knew that someone would have to travel to the southern kingdom to try and stop the new imbalance of power. Jalen often wished he could be an adventurer and travel to distant lands, but he was only a master apprentice. He would never get to be a hero. The seemingly endless, narrow hallway confines of the castle were enough to drive any claustrophobic person insane. The group sneaked by the guards, that seemed to stand still like statues of stone. Once they had made it past the guards, all that stood in front of them was the door to the innermost sanctum of the castle: Lord Brian’s monastery. As the old doors creaked open, Jalen saw the old pipe organ in the back of the cathedral, with a man in a black cloak sitting at it, turning out horrid sounding pitches that seemed to make even the statues cringe in agony. “Well you might be a good leader, but you obviously haven’t taken any piano lessons,” said Jalen, jokingly. Fortunately, Lord Brian took it lightly. They descended the mountain and continued further south, knowing that their quest would only become more difficult as they progressed. However, they also knew that it wouldn’t be long before Lord Brian was saved and returned to Meleville, and peace would be restored to Celt land.
