Ansiprus

Bragton looked over the city streets ruined and burnt from the recent battle that had taken place ,Intash and Siphru walked up to him “Bragton now that the city is safe what shall we do?” Bragton turned and said “We will wait my old friend.” He walked over to the pedestal of Arbitron and knelt down stuck his two swords into the ground and stretched out his wings and slowly he turned into a statue, one of the many power of the pedestal, his friend’s followed his example and soon were statues as well.

“And there they stand to this very day.” Said Trigmaran solemnly.

The little circle that had accumulated was soon gone some went over to the pedestal to put something on it to see if it really could turn anything to stone, and Agrivis Crition walked over to a nearby building and lent against one of its numerous pillars, all around him the feast of Agrion was beginning since almost 300 years ago it had been founded.

A crowd of people was beginning to grow around the statute’s and a man got up onto a platform and began to announce the beginning of the feast even though everyone knew about it, about 20twenty minutes after the man had begun, a roar broke out in the sky then a giant Crloud swooped out of the sky and slammed into the pavement the rider jumped off and stumbled forward then fell flat on his face holding out a letter with the royal seal Oriliom groaning then his hand went limp a few people ran to him and pushed him over to see a broken arrow protruding from his chest.

A tall and loud voiced man grabbed the letter and shouted it out to everyone “Oriliom has fallen!!!” Whispering broke out in the group “Marked by king Namilfar.” Someone else said looking at the letter.

Everyone was whispering this was not a lie but how could that be possible that castle had walls 50 feet thick and a hundred feet high with a constant guard and a few hundred more defenses, “Should we go and see wither it is true or not.” Said one of the high priests.

A laugh broke out, by we he meant someone else who was willing to die but no one volunteered, after a few minutes of uncomfortable silence I said as loud as I could that I would be eager to go on such an adventure.

Some scoffed some nodded and kept on looking for others but no one raised their hand or said anything that implied they wanted to go.

I later was talked to by one of the high priests who gave me instructions that I should not speak to strangers of my quest and is they were unfavorable I was to kill them and he also told me that if I went through any villages or city’s I was to tell them to send there fighting men to the castle.

He also said that I was to set out at once and I was soon furnished with a weapon of my own and a stead and the supplies I would need to survive one my journey.
