Taylor walked through no man's land. It was 8 months into the war. Whoever won would gain complete control of Celestia. Around him were shattered pieces of buildings and equipment. Not excluding dead bodies either burnt to a crisp, frozen, or lay there still, like roadkill in Marleybone.

Taylor continued to walk. He was a mere Private in the war. Ever since he joined, Morganthe appeared more in battles. He had wondered why, because before, she had only participated in one battle.

Suddenly, a Goliath hopped on him, threatening to kill him in a language he didn't understand. The Goliath put his humongous claws and clamped his neck. Taylor was being choked. His spear was merely five feet away. He finally got free, and grabbed his spear. The spear was a weapon given to him by Hades, whom he defeated in battle.

He casted a Bone Drake, or a Skeletal Dragon. He watched as the giant skeleton dragon took the life out of the Goliath. Usually he would have used a attack spell that healed him, such as Scarecrow, but for that to do anything effective it would need many blades and traps. He felt his neck spilt open.

He then blacked out from losing blood.

(3 years later, in Avalon.)

The last battle in Kyrsalis was taking place right now. He had been ordered to stay behind in Avalon, where he would be told to go to battle if he was needed. "Morganthe is cheatin' again." Said someone behind him. It was his best friend and cousin, Gavin Dawnfinder. Taylor smiles at Gavin. "Oh please. She has always cheated from when this war even started." Taylor replied. "How is she cheating this time, Cousin?" Taylor asked, laughing. "She is creating her army. Summoning Goliaths and Dark-Webs." He answered, with a grim frown. "Oh. I wish I was out there, I would kill her myself." He replied.

(30 minutes later...)

Taylor grew tired from sitting there. He drifted softly into sleep. He then woke up in a dream. He was in the death tower, before it collapsed in Nightside. It was Sylvia Drake, Malistaire Drake, and... Taylor gasped in surprise. Morganthe. The three were chatting. He was too far away to hear because he was high above them. "No! We mustn't communicate with the child. You too Morganthe. If we communicate with him... He might get suspicious." Malistaire yelled. "Malistaire please! We must warn the child of Cyrog-"

Sylvia was just about to finish her sentence when he was jolted awake from loud cheering that Morganthe was in custody of Marleybone. He got up and started to cheer with them. Finally Morganthe would plague the Spiral no more. But he was still curious of what they meant of a 'child.' He ignored it, and cheered and feasted with his fellow soldiers.

Chapter 2:

As they feasted on delights only found in some parts of the Spiral, they chatted. He started talking with his group of friends. Gavin Dawnfinder, Dylan Skull, and Adam Redpetal. They chatted about how they first won against Malistaire. He remembered that day. They were ordered to stay behind as a day of peace was in order.

But they didn't care. They climbed on Dragons and flew all the way to the top of Dragonspyre. With much difficulty, they took down the Dracocanians that guarded the last door to Malistaire. The defeated Malistaire only because Gavin pulled a amazing Treasure Card. It was a Fire Dragon, and it destroyed Malistaire with just one blade and trap. They were thanked and congratulated, but they weren't ranked up.

Before the war with Morganthe started, they relaxed in peace on the beautiful world of Celestia, the island on top of it. It was beautiful there, and Gavin and Adam got girlfriends, since they were on Spring break from Ravenwood. Sadly, Adam and his girlfriend split, because his girlfriend decided to leave Ravenwood to do a independent study in Marleybone.

While they were relaxing in Celestia, Morganthe came and poisoned the deep jungle on the island. He snapped back to the conversation. Suddenly, we heard a loud banging at the door. Our commander, Brittney Legend, (Yes, surprisingly she was a girl) opened the door with her wand pointed. She slashed 3 Goliaths in one blow. Then a loud booming voice of Morganthe was heard.

"I'll find you, Taylor."
