Prologue


A young blonde-headed man overlooked the view on the balcony to see the dawning of a new day. He turned around and departed down the marbled staircase heading straight towards his gallant white horse. The man's name is Leopold Pyris, the prince of Eclian.

"My fellow knights and soldiers," Leopold spoke when he walked out to the cattle to pick up his white horse. "Tenugaia will be ours and so will my fiancé Cecily," he added with an evil smirk on his face.

"Anything you say, Your Majesty!" One soldier responded. "Give us the signal to lay siege on Tenugaia upon your arrival."

"A prince never forgets," Leopold replied when he kicked his horse gently. "Only time will come. Until then, keep this castle guarded, understand?"

"Yes, Your Majesty!" One of Leopold's soldiers replied and bowed down to him and watched the prince travel down the road.

Leopold knew that the Tenugaian kingdom is not far from his castle. Same goes for passing through the treacherous forests and swamps. It was only about twenty miles to get there on time. The prince's arrival should be estimated in about a few hours to meet up with his fiancé and drain all the power from the king and queen for his own greed. An evil smirk appeared on Leopold's handsome face once again to let everyone know in the future about his true colors. His ultimate goal is to hog all power, make Cecily his slave and overrule the world of Sylvalas. It's the mark of his slowing development in being a ruthless, coldhearted prince.

"Those fools King Terrance and Queen Amelia will soon fall into my grasp of never-ending war," Leopold laughed evilly.

Out in a camp site residing in the secluded area of Bridas Forest, a young man in mid-long brown hair and green emerald eyes came out of his tent. He was a strong, brave, bold, handsome and fearless warrior. He went by the name, Hunter Arkaman. Hunter began his day on a daily exercise of sword training. The importance of him to become strong is to train and develop his fighting style in future battles. He quickly put on a green and white sleeved armored shirt, Baltic dark green gloves, long cobalt fuzzy cape, black crossed belts, blue pants, wolf fur legwarmers and green shoes with white markings. Unlike many other regular knights, Hunter only fights with a sword equipped on his right while he uses his claw gauntlet on his left. The warrior headed to a different place of the forest out of range and drew out his blade slowly from the scabbard.

"I am Hunter Arkaman," he said to himself with a swing of his blade. "My goal is to revive the legacy of the Arkaman and live up to the legend."
The prologue to my first story "A Legend Begins" the first volume of The Arkaman Chronicles featuring my OC Hunter Arkaman. :)
