Path of the Tyrant: Logan's Promises

…

Chapter 1:Embarking on an adventure

I can still remember when the people bowed to me with astonishment and awe, and now they all just fear and despise me. They want to kill me, they want to slaughter me, but their fear is keeping them, fear of death. Which is the reason why I exist, to just make it a fear and not a reality, because the reality is coming closer and closer and I'm the only one who knows of it. I give a sigh when I'm closing in on the door, I give a sigh when I can hear the sound of hate from my people and finally I sigh when I see my sister not loving me anymore.

"sigh, this is it…"

…

"Ladies and gentlemen, the king is here!"

The doors opened and there was the king, the audience went absolutely quiet when he entered. The only sound in the throne room was the footsteps from the king who went to his throne. Next to the throne was the king's advisor, sir Walter Beck, an old warrior who stood at the side of the former hero queen in battle. The king sat down comfortable on his throne and Walter began to speak.

"The king has something to tell us all, you will be silent and not interrupt him" Walter then looked at the king and nodded.

First the king didn't say a thing, he only sat there, leaning to the side of the throne with closed eyes. Then after a minute, he stood up with his face up high.

"I will be leaving Albion for a while"

The audience started to shout, not caring for Walter's order, screaming about how he didn't care for them, how he only took everything for himself and how evil he had become. Walter got nervous, he knew what the king could do and that the people didn't know it, but then the king raised a hand and the audience went silent.

"I am going to find something and I do not trust anyone to do this, so I'm doing this alone. Do not believe that I am leaving the crown, I will have my advisors to make sure you're behaving while I'm gone and if anyone tries anything there will be consequences!" The king said with a powerful voice.

One man from the audience yelled out: "when will you return"

The king sat down again on his throne, leaning to one of the sides while thinking for an answer.

"there is a high possibility that it will take a year or more, but it might happen that I cannot leave at all, you do not need to know why, but you do actually not need to know anything at all….because-" The king then stood up and unsheathed his rapier, pointing the tip at the audience, making them cower down in fear.

"Because you are not suppose to hold knowledge, only muscle. Now get back to the factories!" the king ordered while sheathing his sword.

The crowd was sent out of the throne room, leaving The king and Sir Walter alone.

The king sat in his throne looking at the wall while thinking, Walter got nervous from the silence and wanted to ask a question.

"where are you actually leaving, your majesty" Walter asked curiously, the king only shifted position on his throne. Walter only sighed and started to walk to the exit.

"I have to go and see if your sister is awake an-" Walter was interrupted by the king

"Azeroth…I'm heading to Azeroth" Walter got a confused expression on his face.

"Azeroth? I've never heard or read about such a place" Walter walked to the king stopped right before the small steps.

"Azeroth is another world Walter, It is not strange you have not heard about it" Walter scratched his neck at the king's words.

"then may I be so bold asking where you heard of it?" the king got an annoyed look on his face, which made Walter get a bit nervous.

"the former ruler of Albion, my mother…" Saying that he stood up and started to walk towards the exit, but then Walter got another question in mind.

"how are you going to get to another world your majesty?" the king stopped right before the door, he did not turn around but gave an answer anyway.

"Magic…"

then he left the room, leaving Walter on his own.

…

A 17 year old girl sat on a chair reading a book next to a 17 year old boy who wrought a book, it was really peaceful, but it was all destroyed when the king entered with almost kicking the doors open.

"wha-" the boy couldn't finish even a word before the king ordered.

"out now!" the boy looked at the girl with a concerned look on his face, but she gave an reassuring smile, so he left and closed the doors after him. The king looked at the smiling girl.

"Is there anything I can do for you my king?" there was some teasing in those words, but the king didn't care at that moment, which made the girl really surprised.

"I am leaving Albion for almost a year" the girl got even more surprised and stood up and looked seriously at the king.

"why are you leaving?" The king walked past her, and looked at a huge map which only showed Albion and a strange region full of sand.

"There are some personal things, but I can tell you that when I return, Albion will be even more powerful then it already is" the king walked around the huge map while looking at the girl, "I hope I don't need anyone to keep an eye on you?" the girl got an disappointed look, but still kept silent. "good" finished the king.

"where are you leaving to?" the girl asked right out of curiosity, the king looked at her with an angry look, which got her to look down, but then she got the king's hand on her shoulder, she looked shocked up at him and saw a tired smile.

"Sorry sister, that information is classified" he joked with it, then he turned and went out of the room.

The girl took her hand on the shoulder the king took a hold on.

"long time since you did anything like that Big brother…"

the boy who was sent out went inside and looked at the girl concerned.

"What did King Logan say?" She only shook her head with a small smile, "nothing special, Elliot…" Elliot looked really happy.

"well, in that case, may I be you escort to the garden, Princess?" he extended his arm towards the princess with a smile, and she gladly took it, "of course"

…

"JASPER!" Logan shouted after his butler, then when he turned he saw the butler right behind him.

"you called, your majesty?" Logan raised a brow, he always wondered how Jasper were able to do that.

"where is the items I ordered you to get me?" Jasper gestured the king to follow him.

They entered a room, and the king closely looked at every items inside.

"I got your pistol examined over a hundred times like you ordered, I took out a huge amount of gold you can have with you and also food of course" the butler continued to name everything Logan had requested, while the king himself looked at all the effects.

"…and that should be everything. Are you satisfied my king?" Logan took one final look at everything fast, and then said: "yes, I am satisfied" he then walked to the map and looked down at the mountains.

"when you are gone, then I am quite sure that some people will attack the castle, anything you want me to tell the guards?" the butler had thought of this some time and had to ask the king. Logan didn't take his sight from the map but walked around and said his little motto which both Sir Walter Beck and Jasper had heard a lot of times.

"This is my Albion, the people must do as I say, or they will die…"

the butler didn't answer, he only looked at Logan

"anything else I could be of service?" The king only shook his head, Jasper bowed and said.

"then I wish you the best of luck in your adventure, I will keep an extra eye on the young Princess" and make sure she doesn't get in any trouble" and with that he left the room.

Logan was quiet while looking at the map, this could be the final time he looked at Albion, but he didn't have a soft heart so he quickly got to his senses and took everything with him, his mother, the hero queen, had thought him a spell which made it possible to hold a huge amount of storage without carrying a bag, so he used that spell on everything.

Logan made sure that the royal attire was perfectly on, the rapier was sharp and ready and checked the pistol, then finally he went to the treasure room.

There were two guards standing in front of the door, once they saw the king they saluted.

" I want you to push all the money away from the middle of the room this instance!" the guards saluted again and started to work.

After maybe one hour they were done, "good, now stand guard and if anyone ask if I have been here, then say no, is that clear!" the guards saluted and said in union " yes my king!"

…

Logan stood in the middle of the room with a stone in his hand, it was pure white and had some blue rune mark on it. When he channeled magic to the stone it started to glow green, Logan stopped at a second to take a heavy breath, and then he channeled all the magic he could form in the stone, then a huge blue light formed around him and almost like he had blinked, he was another place.

Logan opened his eyes and found immediately out that he was in a forest, which he didn't like at all, but he knew that a new world could have anything so he tried to not think of it.

"Hello? Is anyone there?" he said with a easy volume, getting no answer he only went on, looking for a road.

After some hours, Logan found a sign.

"English? That is a relief" he then read the sign

"Goldshire? Hmph, sounds like a small village…" then he walked that way on the road towards Goldshire.

After a while he heard some strange sound from the forest and decided to check it out, and finally, he found a man who was hogging a tree down, Logan walked towards this man, needing for information.

At the way to the man Logan almost forgot something, he isn't a king here, so at this place he needs to be friendly to get things.

"Excuse me" Logan started, the man turned to see Logan and had a surprised look on his face.

"y-yes, how can I help you?" the man looked a bit uncomfortable when he asked that question. Logan knew it was probably because of Logan's royal attire.

"I just wondered where I could find Goldshire" the man looked even more surprised, and then he broke into laughter.

"have you not been in Goldshire before? Haha, where are you from?" asked the man while laughing, Logan didn't answer, but had an extremely dangerous look on his face which made the man's laughter to stop.

"1 kilometer that way" said the man while pointing a direction, Logan looked that way, "what are you doing so far from there then?" asked Logan, "I live in a hut one minute from here" Logan didn't say anything else, he only walked towards Goldshire.

When Logan finally got to Goldshire, he was shocked beyond measure, there were some inhuman creatures there, tall purple/blue elves, Logan has never seen anything like it, but he tried to not show his surprise, they were probably common in the world of Azeroth.

Logan walked slowly past the 'purple' people and made his way to a guard.

"hello, I am looking for this village's leader, can you help me find him?" the guard gave a little chuckle before answering.

"you're talking to him, nice to meet you, I'm Marshal Dughan and I'm at your service" Dughan reached his hand towards Logan, and Logan shook his hand, "indeed, a pleasure to meet you" Logan looked closely at the place before asking.

"where can I find your capital city?" Dughan looked shocked, "I'll guess your not from here?" Logan only looked at him with his tired look, "well, our capital city is Stormwind, you'll find it not far from here" Logan only nodded his head and was about to go, but a hand stopped him.

"I'm sorry, but it's darkening and there are a lot of bandits from the defias brotherhood who lurks in the shadow, and I have a strong feeling that they will attack you if you were to go there" Logan looked at him with an annoyed look.

"Bandits are nothing to me" Dughan sighed at Logan's sentence, "please, just stay at the bar tonight and everything should be ok" Logan took a minute to think about the situation, he wasn't in a rush, so he could stay there for the night, but still…

"fine, I'll stay here for the night, but I hope it isn't expensive!" the guard looked at him confused, then he looked at Logan's clothes, and then he looked back to his face, "well, I'm sure you have the money to it, only 15 copper" told Dughan to Logan, "the bar is that little house, please have a good night sleep" he finished with a smile, while Logan only turned and went to the bar.

" Seems like this will be a long adventure…"
