the story of the people

I am planning on writing a novel and this is what i wrote so far.

Introduction:

When the nations lost all hope in stopping the evil and tyranny, earth was filled with corruption. fifteen heroes emerged to face the evil embodied by what was called the big witch, and after countless fierce battles and sacrifices the heroes were able to defeat the witch and end her evil.

But not all stories have happy endings. Something went horribly wrong when our heroes started fighting amongst themselves and the fight grew until it covered the whole world again.

Countless villages and large cities were destroyed. But at the end, there was a victorious group, and they forcefully imposed their control over the world, then turned the people to slaves and assassinated anyone with a thought of rebellion against the new world order.

Earth was finally quite but it was scary

Chapter 1

Five or was it six days since we left the mine? I think it was six! Looked to his wolf that was walking beside him quietly, then continued murmuring to himself. “these weird rocks in the salt mine have unusual value, that weird merchant bought all of it for a nice sum of gold, honestly I don’t know what the gold is worth in the outside world but I am sure it is worth something.

He approached a wide worn out bridge leading to the ruins of a great city that was once known as Horizon. He entered the ruins saying to his wolf: “my grandmother talked about these ruins Lupus”, he looked to his wolf as he took a ready stance like he is sensing close danger, Aeron continued walking carefully as he was feeling his long dagger in his belt. Said Aeron: “if my grandmother’s information was correct then the city of New Horizon should be south of these ruins” Lupus let out a short howl as they continued their journey towards the new city, New Horizon.

Aeron’s eyes widened in wonder as he saw the people, houses and shops scattered around the new city. This was the first time in his life that he saw the outside world since he spent it with his grandmother and his wolf in the farm close to the salt mine, the people looked astonished at Lupus that was walking beside Aeron calmly. Aeron didn’t pat an eye to their weird looks as he himself was astonished as he watched the active city.

Lupus let out his tongue and howled as he looked at Aeron, smiled Aeron and patted his wolf and said:” you smell it two? The smell of this barbequed meat is delicious, come on let’s get some!” as he raced Lupus, while people are still astonished. one of the bystander wearing a white cloak looking at Aeron and Lupus whispered to another man: “we must tell the priest of this gravely thing.”

Aeron and Lupus arrived drooling near a girl barbequing the meat, she smiled and looked at Aeron’s hungry face and said: “you look hungry, do you want steak?” he said: “make it two!” sniggered the girl as she said: “slow down boy, once steak is plenty enough, and it is about 100 gold pieces” he said: “I have a lot of gold but the second steak is for my friend here” as he pointed to his wolf that let out his tongue, the girls smile faded as she looked at the wolf and her face turned scared and pale and she took a step back then looked at Aeron in fear and said: “sir I am sorry but I didn’t know you are…” said Aeron as he interrupted her “I am what?” she said with every ounce of courage in her soul: “sir, you are from the supreme regime, I am sorry I even hinted the price I will…” Aeron interrupted her again: “what are you talking about supreme regime?” she said in doubt “is this a test sir?”

Aeron said smiling “what test? And why are you calling me sir? I just came to buy some steak” she gave him the steak saying: “then how were you able to tame that wolf if you are not from the supreme regime?” Aeron looked to his wolf like he was going down memory lane and said: “I didn’t tame him we were raised together me and Lupus since we were little” she looked around scared and said: “I don’t know who you are kid but you being here is putting both of us in great danger I advise you to leave the city as fast as you can” he wondered: “why?” she said as she pushed him away from here shop: “don’t argue just go, run if you can” and she closed the door to here shop, while Aeron and Lupus walked away eating the steaks.

Inside the temple in new Horizon, the archbishop was listing to the citizens in horror, the he said as he stood up: “a kid with a wolf? What are the masters planning?”, “he didn’t have the marking of the supreme regime or a chaos necklace” said one of the citizens. The archbishop stroked his white beard with his left hand while using his staff to stand up, he went into a special room in silence, sat on the white marble floor facing a huge statue in the form of a man and said in a respectful tone: “your majesty, you see and hear everything, I am your loyal servant, I need you.” The statues eyes radiated a dark blue color and a deep sound came from the statue saying: “talk peasant.” The archbishop said while shaking: “your majesty, the spirit collectors are doing their duties to the fullest and I didn’t notice any shortage from them, if and when I do, I will punish them myself but…” the statue said in a furious voice: “did you call me to brag about the work of your people?” in a shaky voice the archbishop said: “I would never sir, but a seamy thought popped into my seamy head, and I wanted to enquire from you” the statue said in a calm voice: “and what thought is that?” the archbishop said in a cautious voice: “I wanted to ask your majesty about your man with wolf, wasn’t he here to check on the number of spirits that we sent the capital?” everything in the white marble room went silent until the archbishop thought that a thunderbolt will hit his temple and blow it smithereens, so his whole body clenched ready to die, the statue spoke again: “ a man with a wolf? We didn’t send him. Where is he now?” the archbishop said eagerly: “he is still inside the city, I am going to make sure that he is dealt with immediately.” The statue firmly: “don’t you dare! We are going to take care of him, tell the people to stay away from him we are to send a flock of Falcons to take care of him” the archbishop put his head down in submission saying: “yes your majesty” he stayed in the white room until the color of the statues eyes faded away, he left and said to his citizens with a wide smile: “the masters will take care of the situation from here on.” The crowd murmured knowing that the supreme regime is going to take the kid out just like they did with their past enemies
