Chapter 1: Still Beginnings
You must wonder how I became a devil forgemaster.
I was born in a small town south of Cordova town called Geneva. Geneva is a little town surrounded by woods. All year the trees remain full, even during fall and winter. A pack of wolves live not far away, but they dare not bother anyone. The houses are settled along the sides of the one and only road, making it so that everyone lives across from each other. There is a small dirt road at the north part of town leading to Cordova town. Everyone knew each other. Everyone went to the same butcher, same baker, same doctor. Even though I was only 11 years old at the time I must say that we lived a very dull life. I lived in a small house with my mother, father, and Heather, my younger sister. I only went to Cordova town once and I knew that my life was nothing compared to the busy lives of those who lived there. In my heart I always wanted something out of the ordinary to happen, and one day I had got my wish.
It was the time of the winter solstice. Every year there is a festival in the center of town to celebrate it. People gather; children run around, playing in the snow, while others sip hot tea under gaslights. This year it seemed to be the same as the last, until suddenly a burst of flames emitted from the church. Everyone turned toward the direction of the church, mouths agape. I watched the fire swarm about the spire of the church, my eyes lit with a chaotic glow. Then out of the base of the flames came a tall, slender figure. His body was covered in markings, emphasizing his feminine figure. He gazed at us all with a sinister smile, his eyes holding a glint of evil intent within them. He then began to speak to all of us.
"Now why wasn't I invited?" he cried. No one answered. "Don't you think that is a little rude?" he continued. His right hand then became engulfed in violet flames. He closed his eyes. "Come out, my liege!" and with that, a bulky, dark creature appeared behind him. The monster had a face of a demon, with a frightening pair of wings. It growled under its breath. "Go!" the man commanded. The beast cried out and with that everyone began to turn and run. The man cackled, watching people get slaughtered by his demon. All around me bodies fell, their eyes growing dim. I knew that it was pointless to run, because eventually that demon would see me and kill me as well, so I stood there, listening to the screaming around me. The man then stopped laughing and stared at me, smiling. I could not look away. He then approached me and put his hand on my shoulder, chuckling. "What's your name, child?!" I hesitated.
"Hector." I replied.
That is the day I met Isaac.
