...The Fire Mage...
...: Part 1 :...
...:Chapter 1 – Ascalon:...
Kiyana sighed softly, her long hair seeming to shimmer as she brushed it out slowly, evenly. Her golden eyes moved up to the dresser, looking over her own body. She was a lovely elementalist, but, she didn't feel...right? Perfect? She slowly sat up, tyeing her long hair into a loose ponytail, and closing her amber hues. She left her room, closing the door softly behind her, and sat down on the stairway into her home. Children were at play, and everything was nice and lovely but... She could FEEL the charr wanting to attack... It wasn't a feeling, more of a knowledge that was hidden.
Getting up, she did the normal for her class. Threw a few fireballs at random charr, and shot off a few arrows at a target. She was an Elementalist/Ranger. She looked up, seeing a lovely sleek cat running to her, a Malendrus Stalker. She smiled softly, holding her cat close, kissing its nose. She and her pet were at the highest level possible, in number standards, twenty. Her skill level. It was rare to find a defender of Ascalon anymore, and she was one of them, with her pet, Shadow. She rested against the door frame, watching the children and others run around.
Slowly getting up, she left the town, holding her staff in one hand, and the other was resting contently on her pet. She looked down at Shadow, a smile playing upon her pale peach lips. She knelt down gently, her armor was simple. She had a very show-offy set, the skirt only covering a little of her skin, resting contently on her hips dyed black. Her shirt held up her supple breasts, gently showing off her thin and curvy figure. Her long hair was unusual here, falling past her knees but normally braided. Today she had it tied back though, loose and low.
Seeing a squad of charr, she ran to battle, her pet following with a roar to scare off anyone, she bit into the charr hunters neck. Kiyana let fire rain down upon the charr, hurling a few fire balls at them to finish 'em off. "Got 'em!" she said happily, her high soprano voice happy.
After a few hours pass, she returned to town, having killed off many charr today. But, she still felt odd... It wasn't a normal feeling.. At noon, it was hot out. She pulled back her hair tighter, and walked past a group of men, and rolled her eyes at the rangers wolf howls. "Back off, idiots." she said, and walked to the guard. She had to speak with him today.
" Afternoon Miss Kiyana " Tydus spoke, and Kiyana returned him with a brilliant smile. "Good afternoon Sir Tydus." she said, grinning. "you said you needed to speak to me?" she asked, and sighed softly.
He nodded, looking at the silver haired woman. "Can you go talk with Ghosted Dragon, Kiyana Taishou?" he asked, and looked down to a ranger dancing at the party. "We need allies to kill the charr, and you two are the best in all of Ascalon." he said, and let the woman on her way.
As she arrived, she brushed back a long lock of hair, her hair having fallen from its once loose ponytail. "Afternoon Ghosted." she said, grinning. She had partied up with this man before, and knew him pretty well. He was about a year or two older than her, but the two of them had hit it off well.
"Hey Kiyana." was his reply, as he stood up from break dancing.
Kiyana explained what Sir Tydus wanted, and looked at him with pleading eyes... And she told him about how she felt about the... "feeling" she had about the day. She knew the charr we're going got attack, she could feel it.
"Retreat, retreat!" a commanders voice was heard, and Kiyana picked up her staff, as Ghosted picked up his wooden long bow and quiver of arrows. They both ran to the over-look, and ghosted drew an arrow, as Kiyana started casting a spell upon the charr and grawl. Her fire storm rained upon the area, singing every monster's fur and skin. Ghosted's arrows penetrated the armor, going through hearts. They had won this battle...
Kiyana and Ghosted returned to Sir Tydus, and were off to war within a few minutes. They had to go through a little training, and went to slay a chief of the charr. Shadow was a huge help... With Fang, her brother. Kiyana threw one good fireball, and Ghosted let one good arrow off, sending it through the charr's chest, as Kiyana rained more fire down. Now, it was time for war!
Three years pass... Ascalon has fallen, and our hero's return from war, only to find the area in shambles... Kiyana had been right.
"I knew it!" Kiyana cried out, running into the charred land. She cried out in annoyance, only held back by Ghosted, as her eyes shone silver, and she tried to rain fire down upon the charr base camp, but was held back, and kept from attacking.
Kiyana sighed quietly, as Ghosted led her to the large camp fire in the middle of town, and they sat there for a long while, until Kiyana got tired of smelling him. "Ugh! Go get new armor." she pleaded, and left herself to get some better armor.
Kiyana stood in front of a female armor crafter, as she took her sizes. Kiyana pointed ice mage armor, worth a good 15g a piece. As the woman crafter started to work, Kiyana headed to the weapons master, buying a 1,000g staff, and a nice one too. She felt the energy runes enchanting her body, increasing her energy by quite a bit. It was wooden, with a gold head piece holding a flaming ball of suspended fire. She sung is slightly, and nodded, paying. She walked to Ghosted, who led her back to the armor crafter, and let her go to change armor, as she dropped her old set, to pull on a new set of ice mages armor, and tied her long hair up, and rejoined him.
The two decided it was best to get to Kryta with Rurik before the prince got angry, so they started off to the caravan.
It was about 9 pm when they arrived, and everyone was asleep. Kiyana and Ghosted headed out to the side, asleep in view, but out of danger. She sat next to him, her head rested lightly upon his chest, as she fell asleep as Ghosted wrapped his arms around her body. "Good night, Ghosted." Kiyana murred, falling asleep.
"Goodnight, Kiyana." was his reply, and he gently held her there, content.
