Chapter 2 The Castle in the Snow
I don't know how many days it's been since my village was attacked by monsters, or how many days I've been traveling since. What I do know, is that I am the only survivor of the attack, and that I barely managed to kill the damned beast that killed my family. You see I have these abilities, and while I might not be able to fully control them I can manage enough to fend for myself.
It was a cold evening and I could sense that a blizzard was on the way. I needed food and shelter. In the distance I could see what looked like a castle, and decided I would force my way to stay there for the night. When I got to the castle it was already snowing. I was already weak from hunger, but I banged on the door as hard as I could. When it finally seemed like no one would answer, the door opened. A man who seemed to be in his mid thirties was standing in the open door. "Sir, could you possibly spare a room and some food for a lost homeless boy?" I asked. "I think I can, but I must ask you, how did you find this place?" he answered. "I was walking in the snow and I saw this castle in the distance," I said, "what is this place?" "It is a school in which we train guardians. Only people with magical abilities can find this place."
"What are guardians?" I asked. "Guardians are people that protect other people from evil beings such as monsters," the man replied. "If that's the case, where were any of them when my village was attacked?" I inquired. "Well they can't be everywhere. Guardians are very busy people. Wait here I'll be right back I am going to speak to the head master I'll be about thirty minutes," he told me, "oh, by the way, my name is Professor Aberon." "My name is Airemeth

"Headmaster Cyriques, a boy bout the age of ten just knocked on the door. He seems starved and he says he is the sole survivor of a monster attack on his village." Aberon said. "We'll if he could find this place we should test him to see if he can become a guardian. The Summoning of Pets Ceremony is almost upon us and the Tens are getting excited. Tend to him and let him rest. Oh, and of the choice of becoming a guardian." Cyriques ordered. "Yes Headmaster," replied Aberon.
