The Begining

Once upon a time, there was ...

Pablo (Master Magician): ... The path you will take on this test may be vital to your promotion, and remember, only the ones that finish in less than three minutes will pe promoted to Magicians. The others will repeat the year. Now go!

Well, we're here, at the Magic Academy in Odelia, Elyades. Twenty young apprentinces want to promote to Magicians, but not all will. After a short explanation given by Pablo, they start the long race full of obstacles.

Pablo: First place ... Dana! Good job, Dana, I saw that those wolves put up a fight at the third corner!

Dana: Yeah, but you tought me how to create the best Fortress, so I defeated them

Pablo: Here you go, give me the apprentince staff and I'll give you the Wooden Staff and a Power Bracelet, for you were fir ... Second place ... Michael ...

And so, the old sage presents each child as they promote. All of them, all twenty have passed the test and after the graduation ceremony ...

Michael: You had to use that Blink and teleport, right?

Dana: Well, what can I say, I'm just talented ... also, remember what you promised yesterday?

Michael: No ...

Dana: Whoever wins today buys icecream for both! Thanks for being slow, I didn't take any money!

Meanwhile, in the Backalley, thieves are also ready to promote and someone seems to be late ...

Cindy (Master Thief): Okay, so this is the last time we meet until your second promotion in Port, so behave ...

Erika (barely breathing): Sorry for being late miss, Piggy is a bit ill.

Cindy: Okay, go to your place now! Your test today is to finish a speed course as fast as you can! You have 1 minute ... GO!

This Erika seems to be very talented, but who is the one near her that wants to protect her?

Cindy: Good Job, Erika, you finished first, take these Steel Claws and Power Bracelet ... Wow! Seth, you didn't need to help your sister, she was doing well ... you almost didn't pass the test ... Here are your Steel Claws ... as for the rest of you there's another year waiting around the corner!

Far away, at the Duel Arena, the warriors also have their promotion test and two of them seem to be equal, although only 10 should promote ... Finally they realise that it is a tie and give up, receiving Steel Swords and Power Shields ...

Sophie (tired; barely breathing): You did a good job, Jack ... I was hoping that I'll win.

Jack (tired; barely breathing): Yeah, I somewhat hoped you'd win too, as I didn't want you to do yet another year ...

Rony (Master Archer; at the Archery Range): You two, Matt and Julie, stop arguing, the test is about to begin!

Julie: He started it!

Matt: She's lying!

Rony: Stop it! Both of you, if you don't stop you'll do another year!

Both (at unison): Okay ... Stop copying me! Stop it! ...

They even finish the test at the same time ... the sun goes down as the day ends and night falls upon the lands of Dragotaka, but not everybody sleeps, as the Dragon Knight Deckard feels a sense of unease.

Pororing: Master Deckard! Master! Oh, there you were! So, I need to send these invitations to 11 humans, right?

Deckard: Not completely ... Not all of them are humans, and only eight must be sent tomorrow, as the others will be summoned later ... I'm sorry for ... Pororing? Where are you?

Pororing (shouting from afar): Sorry, Master, but someone (looking at the chef) used peanuts in the food! ... I'm allergic to Peanuts!

The next morning, the eight children receive their messages: 'Meet me in the Odelia Park, near the shrine. I shall wait you all there.'

Michael: Oh, hi Dana! Did you send this message?

Jack: So, I guess you received messages to, right? I'm Jack, by the way, nice to meet you!

The eight children gather around the shrine, befriending and waiting for the one who sent the messages ...

Pororing: Sorry for my delay ... er ... 5, 6, 7, 8 ... yes, all eight ... right, so: ' I have summoned you all here for our world is in great danger, talk to Dun Morgan, he will tell you what to do next!' Okay, that's all there is written on this parchment ... see you around ... maybe!

Seth: Come, Erika, we're going home!

Erika: Stop it! Stop treating me like a child, just Stop!

Jack: We should go and see with what we can help, no one is going to get hurt in any way, I promise!

Julie: I think you should lead us ... Jack, right?

Jack: Yeah ... I don't know where the chief is ...

Sophie: Oh, you know nothing! Come with me people and follow closely! Ha!

And soon, the eight reach the house of Odelia's town chief, Dun Morgan. He explains that his daughter was kidnapped by wolves, she, together with her husky, named Silver, and other pets are missing for a few days now. Also, when Dun wanted to dissmiss them, a guard enters the room. He sais that the orc brothers (who?) have gone mad and Thomas (again ... who?) needs immediate assistance in Traitor's Ridge. With no time to lose, the fellowship leaves Odelia for their first adventure.
