Prologue

10 years before:…...

Macali sat on his horse, watching his pawn Morgarath failed his invasion of the kingdom of Araluen. It was heartbreaking to see his general failed and slain by a youth only 16 year old. He grunted and turned in disgust. Same habit with Morgarath, he never watched when his officers fell. He rode back to his home in the mountain of Rain and Night. Araluen would suffer, for he will be victorious for once and for all, for he had found the potion of mind control. He would control one of the rangers and let him do the dirty work for him. Macali laughed, Araluen will be his. But now, he would have to wait. He would have his revenge one day, but it is not today nor next year, it will be ten years later for the potion needs strengthening and brewing, he will defeat Araluen, he was sure of, but he do not know whom he will control.

(10 years later...)

Macali snorted on disgust as his potion failed again, but he would try until it would work. He already have the target of the mind control in his mind. Will, the ranger. He would like to see Halt suffer for his apprentice, feel bad about his betrayal, and hopefully, slain Will for him to rid Macali of Will's threat for he had already almost discovered him once in his mission to Mountain of Rain and night. Yes, he will watch Araluen suffer, and then capture it. He will have no army to invade, but he will corrupt the kingdom from within. Macali laughed a maniacal laugh and then went back to work.

Prologues in my opinion are always short, cough cough. Review and thanks for reading, I will continue after the Red Fox Clan and this is not a prequel of After the Red Fox Clan. This is a separate story... Review Review Review...
