*This Story is set in a far away land, of monsters and magic
There are several different races, (Humans, Orcs, Elves and more)
and is set on a large island.
*Our story begins in the palace, where the old king has just died (he was murdered by his brother for control of the land) There is a short time of morning before the new king can take the throne. Now we meet young Treborin half human, half Dark Elf. A squire, who has been training to be a knight, like his father before him. His father was killed on a monster hunt, and because, Treborin unique heritage, his fathers wealth and status was returned to the state.
His mother wants nothing to do with Treborin, as his human side would make him an outcast in her peoples eyes.
*The temporary ruler of the land, has ordered knights and soldiers to be ready to leave the palace at dawn. Treborin decides he will be going to, despite being told to stay behind.
* The culture is rich in history, males and females are almost equal in this society. as both serve in the army and can become knights. Only in the church do men still dominate.
*We start now with young Treborin getting ready to depart.
"I am going, and that is that Mela," Treborin stated, as he put his boots on.
"You were told you cant go! Why can't you just stay out of trouble, and do what you are told Tre."
"I don't go out looking for trouble, it just finds me. My curse."
"Your not cursed. your just an idiot." Mela replied with a smirk. "You stick you neck out, volunteer for all assignments."
"I volunteer because they never pick me to do anything. How else am I to become a knight." Treborin replied sounding a little angry.
"Maybe your not meant to be a knight." Mela suggested.
Treborin didn't reply, he went to the hay bales he used as a hiding place and grabbed his bag and his fathers sword. This was the only thing which he had been able to keep of his dads. everything else had been returned to the kingdom. "A half bread like you cant be a knight" an instructor had said, "So you have no use for any of your dads equipment. Your lucky you are a squire. I wouldn't employ you as a stable hand."
He opened his bag to check everything else was there. five copper coins was the all the money he had, a small knife and a large round disk with a hole in the middle and a few Elf symbols. This was the only item which connected him to his mother. Some one and once said it was cursed, or had a charm on it. it was supposed to protect him and give him good fortune, but it hadn't.
Treborin passed it to Mela, "You can look after that, till I get back." He said.
Mela took it and smiled. she untied a ribbon from her hair and slotted it through the hole, making it a necklace. "Don't be stupid Tre." she said as she placed it over his head. "It belongs to you and I know it means a lot to you. Besides, I believe in the curse so I wont be looking after it."
Treborin smiled and Mela, they had known her along time. She kissed him on the cheek, before she said "GO!" He turned and left smiling, Knowing that he was on his way to a grand adventure, if he could get out of the palace grounds and meet up with the army just after dawn.
