Way of A Conqueror

Runes shalt thou find, and fateful signs,

That the king of singers colored,

And the mighty gods have made;

Full strong the signs, full mighty the signs

That the ruler of gods doth write.

The sky was bright but strange, it was filled with blue. More bluer than the ocean. The sun emits light unlike most sun but it wasn't really a sun but an uncommonly large moon slightly akin to the sun, there was no sun but two moon changing shift. One was large the algareth continent called it lumino, the god of light and day. While the small but not that smaller than lumino, was luna the deity of darkness and goddess of night which most elves worship.

In the forest near elriden village. A village located near silvermoon empire a 7 years old boy that has a blue eyes, silvery hair and a pointy ear that was common in most elves but mostly sometimes half elves has a normal size ears like human does, under the tree that was very rare in algareth. The blunear tree, a tree that has blue leaves and produces a fruit which increases the mana of a person who ate it into twofold.

The tree produce a fruit every fifth years. It also regarded as treasure amongs every empire yet one tree was left here in this shady and hidden place. The boy was stargazing under the moonlight, it was night at that time mesmerizing the star near the moon wondering what it is, at that moment the boy saw a light that was falling from the sky. It was shining as it fall.

No one has saw it except for him. The boy stood up and follow it as if it was calling him. It was a wide forest but the falling light wasn't that far to search of and it was slowly falling. He hurriedly ran as he nearing at the entrance of garrion mountain ridge. A dangerous place filled with magic beast and a traditional hunting ground of the village since every few times in a year.

The village chief will organize an hunting competition for honoring Melfina, goddess of the hunt and forest bounty. He reach the ridge which was 3km away from the village he hasn't seen any magic beast but he stopped a bit and hesitated. But the light was really tempting in his eyes and believed that wishes of his will come true if he get that. Is he being greedy? No it just a matter of curiosity and desire for the young elf.

He saw the object that emits bright light has already fallen near him. As he continued to go after it. He ran after it and found a weird looking ball which lights faintly blinks. He picked up the strange metallic ball, it was a weird ball with unknown lines and runic syllables ingrave in it. The boy muttered out of curiosity.

"what is this?"

But suddenly he hears a howl of a wolf. It was far yet, still he knows he needed to go back. He ran home as the boy knows he has no chance of fighting it. He was still young but he hasn't learn bowmanship or any form of offensive techniques, even if his body was already strong. He had no proper techniques to assimilate it. But he has good memory and like to read books. His favorite genre for the books he read is about warfare and territory governments.

The wolf was a lesser ranked magic beast. But at that moment the howl suddenly disappeared for instance and was nowhere to be heard and then another howl, growl at the other side. On later part the howl momentarily stopped and could not be heard of. It's as if the wolf was toying with him then left.

He heave a sigh of relief as he walk straight out of the mountain ridge with the weird Ball full of runic formulas in hand. He didn't notice a wild boar Was charging towards him with full speed, and it was also in the category of lesser ranked beasts.

He was unluckily got hit in his left armed. With his arm absorbing the impact. The boar Rammed him as he flunk near an oak tree. The impact to the tree was directed to his head. Injuring him heavily.

He vomit a mouthful of blood as his sight becoming blurry and unclear, he was then become unconscious. The blood in his arm touched the ball which he carries with him and it suddenly shine.

The illumination was brighter that it scared the nearby magic beast including the boar who was about to go near, ran away in fear. Shortly.

The ball started to spin mid-air and it spoke a word with a robotic and mechanical tone.
