Chapter 1: The Black Stone
Crouching behind a large bush, Vrael waited. For several days he had followed a herd of deer in the forests near The Spine and had gotten ahead of them.
For several hours he waited yet still, the deer did not come. He knew he could not give up now. His family was not a rich family, and they relied upon him to deliver their food.
Vrael was an exceptional hunter, learning his craft from his father who was a great hunter himself. Each week, Vrael would hunt several different animals and, after hunting bears and wolves, he now considered deer easy game. And yet, this one herd had eluded him.
For several hours he still waited, and when he accepted that they would not come, Vrael stood up and in frustration, kicked at a nearby stone.
The impact jarred his leg and he felt as if several of his toes had broken. With a curse he bent down and examined the stone, trying to ignore the throbbing pain in his right foot. The stone was black which at first he considered was because of the shadows on it but after taking a closer look; he saw that the stone itself was pitch-black except for a few white veins that appeared on the side of it.
The stone was oval-shaped and remarkably smooth to the touch.
Lifting it off the ground, Vrael grunted as the weight of the stone surprised him. The stone itself was almost higher than his knee-caps when on the floor and weighed as much as a pile of bricks.
In his mind he knew that he would not be able to hunt as the weight would hinder him and—after reassuring himself that the stone was worth far more than the deer—Vrael headed back to his village, Yazuac.
