Chapter One: The Breaking Point
The Hero's Guild were being critized by the people of Albion, about how they were no longer needed, from Oakvale to Headmans Hill. It began 4 years after the Hero from Oakvale killed the reincarnation of Jack of Blades, the Dragon. The Hero was given numerous quests over the years, until there were simply no more. There was no more balverines, no more trolls, no more hobbes, or bandits, or battles, just peace.
Now the guild doesn't teach Hero's to be good or bad, they teach them to use their power for their own needs and what they fell is right, that is where it all began. A Hero who progressed threw his training at an impressive rate (of course he was trained by the Hero of Oakvale himself) wanted more. He wanted to rule all of Albion so he ran away to the long forgotten camp of Twinblade and gathered followers who wanted the same thing and who were willing to kill for it.
A few months later he attacked the closes town, Oakvale. The Hero of Oakvale was with his wife and daughter when it happened. It was a beautiful sunny afternoon he was reading The Tale of Scarlett Robe when he heard "BANDITS!" The Hero quikly grabbed his sword, Avo's Tear, he ran down the hill to find people running from the beach, except one. "My son!" yelled Anthony one of residents of Oakvale "Forget the boat!" "No father!" yelled Garth son of Anthony "Grandfathers fishing pole is in it" he got the fishing pole and ran towards the pub when Garth felt a sharp pain threw his chest, he looked down and saw an arrow head threw his left chest, then he fell. Without even thinking Anthony let out a cry and ran to his sons aid followed by the Hero of Oakvale who ran faster than Anthony. Anthony bent to put his sons head on his lap, oblivios to the battle not more than 4 feet away. "Father" said Garth "Promise to take care of Lizzy, sell my store if you have to, but take care of my daughter." and with those last words he died, he never even heard his father say "I promise".
Behind Anthony the Hero fought with the heart of a lion. 5 bandits came at him at once he laid waste to them with his multible arrows, then 3 more came at once and in one swing of his sword their heads fell at the other bandits feet so they ran. "COWARDS!" shouted the Hero who was trained by the Hero of Oakvale. "So Markus" said the Hero of Oakvale "This is what your life means to you? When you left The Guild you told me that you were gonna make Jack of Blades look like a drunk hobbe compaired to you." The two heros took a fighting stance. "Things take time my old master" said Markus "When you are killed this town will burn to the ground." Then Markus produced flames from his hand and threw at The Hero, The Hero lifted his hand and made it vanish right there. Markus looked shocked but then he imediatly shot out lightning and threw it towards the Hero but the Hero didnt move he didnt have to. The lightning hit the Hero with little affect. Surrender Markus" said the Hero "Never" Markus said as he drew his sword. Markus swong an upward slice at the Hero so the Hero moved a little to the left and stabbed Markus at his side. "I'm sorry Markus but you left me with no other alternative." and then the Hero withdrew his sword from Markus's side. The Hero then looked at Anthony who is still holding his son. The Hero then lended his hand to help Anthony up only to have it slaped away by the now angry father. "I promise you that by my sons death the Hero's Guild will be no more." then he bent down and picked up his son and walked towards the Oakvale Graveyard.
