The Chronicles of Caslovania
(book 1)
(The magical realm of Caraval)
(CHAPTER 1)
Now let me ask you a question, are you a brave kid, if not let us follow the story of a young boy named Charlie.
One boy, by the name of Charlie was nothing but an ordinary kid. He lives in a city called Terim, a tiny town in the huge world of Caslovania. Charlie lives with his grandfather, Greg. Greg was formerly an elite knight in Almanzor army, Almanzor is a town where it is most known for it's collection of elite, specially selected soldiers. Now, this Charlie was sort of a loner, he had no father or mother to love because they just mysteriously disappeared while in a forest collecting wood, he really did not have any friends at school, but there was one thing that he looked forward to every night, his grandfather, Greg would tell him tales about a magical world called Caraval and these tales would often contain tales about brave knights saving damsels in distress from huge, fire breathing dragons and Charlie would often dream about being part of this magical world……….
One day, Charlie was late for school so he decided to take a short cut, the road of the short cut was quite dark and whenever Charlie and his grandfather would pass Greg would often remind Charlie about not passing this road because this was the road that his father, and his mother, Ann had passed when they mysteriously disappeared. Well all that Charlie could think of at that time was getting early to school so he just used the short cut. While he was walking he noticed that the darkness was creeping behind somewhat like chasing him now this quite disturbed him so he ran away from it but shortly afterward the darkness was already all over him and before he knew it it consumed him.
When he woke up he was in a dark room with only a candle light as a source of light, in the middle of the room there stood an old, withered man. "Chosen one, you finally came save Caraval from the tyranny of lord Shimmerscale, save us!!" the old man said. Charlie was afraid and he told the old man: " You must be crazy! Caraval is not real and there is no such thing as a lord Shimmerscale" said Charlie, his voice trembling with fear. " It is your destiny to protect Caraval, take this book with and use it as your guide to defeating lord Shimmerscale and his treacherous henchmen" before Charlie could utter a word, a strong, fiery wind went pass his face and a strong, brilliant burst of light flashed on his face and before he knew it he was sitting on the top of a mountain overlooking the great kingdom of Caraval………..
