Once upon a time in the land of Albion there once was a small village nestled in on the southern tip of the mountain range to the east. In this village called Blackrock there lived a boy and his father, who was a miner along with the rest of the men in the village.
Now the boy's father worked all day in the mines so the boy spent his time exploring the the edge of the mountain range and the surrounding wood. Now one day while playing in the woods the boy heard a rumbling noise that was very loud. The land began to shake violently also and it knocked the boy down and he hit his head on a rock, knocking him unconscience.
When the boy came to all was quiet in the darkness that had engulfed him. The boy who was used to the dark was not scared, but he was curious about what had happened earlier. He began his trek back home, knowing the land so well he did not take long but what he was about to see he wished he hadn't gone back.
"Oh Avo why?" The boy said when he arrieved to the village he called home. There had been an earthquake and that had caused a rock slide which wiped out what he had called home.
"Papa! Papa!" The boy shouted as he began running through the ruin to where the ruins of his home lay. There laying before him was his father under a large boulder.
"Oh Papa... No." The boy wimpered.
Suddenly the body of his father began to move slightly under the boulder and began to groan.
"Papa?" The boy said looking up at his father. "Papa!" The boy shouted as he jumped up and began to try to move the boulder.
"Ugghh... Vesh. Vesh stop." Said the the boy, Vesh's, father. "Vesh stop it's useless. I'm dying. There's no point in wasting your strength."
"But Papa -"
"- No buts! We're all going to die someday and today it's me who's got to die." Vesh's father said. "Everybody here are also dead. You've got to leave." Vesh's father suddenly grave a violent cough and was beginning to pass out.
"Papa! Papa stay here!" Said Vesh as he shook his father by the shoulder bringing him to conscienceness.
"Ugh... Vesh, head... west. Through the woods...Into...Darkwood...seek the...guild's help..." The father then gave one last moan and he fell silent and motionless.
"No..." Vesh said. He then began crying until he fell asleep where the next day he would begin his journey and search for a place his father called "The Guild."
