ALALEA

Hais :) This is my very first story so I'm a little bit nervous...

And if you are reading this, please cope with the very short prologue. Somehow I don't like them prolonged. If you find any interest in the prologue, please read on cus I'll post the first chapter immediately after this.

At first I wasn't planning for this to be a fanfiction, really. I only realized that it was too similar to the Inheritance Cycle when I finished Chapter 1... Then I decided it should be a fanfiction and changed some bits and pieces, so here it is. Actually I wanted to set the genre as fantasy/romance/humour/tragedy/whatnot, but apparently that didn't fit in. Anyway I just hope you enjoy reading it. ^^


PROLOGUE

That damned night flight from Czecho – it had gotten him into this complicated mess. An empty, chill wind blew from the north, if not the south. His compass did not work, for some blasted reason. He swore. How had he, an ordinary and respectable young pilot in the twentieth century, come to be in this situation? The flight passengers, if passengers he could call them, were long gone and nowhere to be seen.

He shuddered as he thought about them. Those strange, dark figures – they hadn't been anything more than usual when they boarded, nothing out of the ordinary, just a plain, simple group of passengers. They'd stayed like that for most of the trip, until the plane hit that storm. He only wished they had stayed as passengers.

So much for my luck, he thought bitterly, frowning at the desolate, empty land.
