Chapter 37
Ryken's Trial
Ryken looked at the beautiful room he was in. It was a large cave with dripping water everywhere. It was beautifuly eroded into natural fountains and small waterfalls. He continued to walk through the cave, giving small glances everywhere, hoping he would remember every detial there was to see.
But, to his disapointment, the cave ended and was into a hallway inside a castle full of knight's armor on dispay. They were all shiny and made of the finest silver Ryken had ever seen. He walked up to one of the finer ones and touched the breast plate, testing its sturdiness. He noticed it was the only one with a sword. He gave a couple of knocks on it and smiled and started to back away.
But as he was walking away, one of the armor arms of the silver slashed its sword at Ryken. He then pulled up the sleeves of his tunic and let the blades come from his arms. It slashed again, but while it was recovering from its failed attempt, Ryken swung one of his blades at it and removed the armor arms. Unfortunately it wasn't the one with the sword and it slashed at Ryken, giving him a deep gash in his left arm.
He grew angry and lunged at the armor, twirling in mid-air causing an unavoidable tornado of blades and he removed the armor's helm. The armor then collapsed into pieces on the floor, revealing nothing but emptiness.
Ryken looked at it with confusion, but decided to leave before any of the other one decided to also attack. When he reached the end of the hallway, he came into a room full of water. He looked down and saw a deep ocean. He looked for an alternate route, but saw none. When he turned around he was suprised to see a wall where the hallway was. His only choice was to lunge into the water.
He ran fingers through his white hair, and then prepared to dive into the water. He removed his tunic and boots, revealing a muscled torso and webbed feet. He then dived in with great agility, acquired from his lineage of as a merman. He sliced his way through the water at and incredible speed. He searched for a way out, and saw a small cave at the other end.
He then swimmed at a reasonable pace through the water. But he felt something bite his shoulder. He turned to saw a school of fish gehind him. He took a closer look and noted their sharp teeth that hung out their mouths. Piranahs!
He swam faster, feeling little knicks against his body. He bled into the salty water drawing more school of the deadly fish towards him. He saw the cave getting closer, and he finally reached it, soar from all the energy he used and the small bited he had all over. But he began to slow, letting more piranahs bite him, making him scream out of the hidden gills on his neck.
He saw the surface of the water above. He swam faster and faster, as much as his muscles would let him. He then turned himself at an angle right before he reached it, letting him soar through the surface of the water and slide onto the hard ground. The landing cut up his stomach and some of his chest.
He groaned in pain as he felt many of the bites he hadn't noticed before appear with a stinging rush. But he looked up and saw a pillar up ahead. He crawled into it and observed the room slightly. It had blue walls with small paintings of fish all over. He grabbed the top of the pillar and used it for support. When he finally stood up the best he could, he saw a small hole.
He looked at the ring Galadriel had given him and then to the hole. They were a perfect match. He removed it from his finger and placed it into the hole. He then saw the entrance to the room close and felt the room slowly rise into the air.
He feared what was to come...

I hope you liked it. Next in line will be Rouge. These trials wont have very long chapters. Im just using them to define the three supporting characters, Ryken, Rouge, and Amwy more than I have. Most people don't have a clear picture on what they look like. You will possibly... or most likely need the information for the sequal! =o)
