This Is dedicated to a lady most special to me.

Author's note: This Story is about Davka Darkeyes and Eilhana Loyalar along with other friends they meet up with along the way. Oh Excuse me if I forget to write in medieval.

Chapter1

The Minitaur snorted in Davka's Ear while he circled around him. Davka stood as still as a rock. The Minitaur exclaims, "What are you doing on MY path!" Davka replies "I didn't mean to stumble upon your grounds. This was just the quickest way to Vemm." I see snorts the Minitaur "You will just have to repay me, with your life!" The Minitaur begins to raise his Axe slowly. When out of the bushes a human fight jumps through and slices the axe in half. The Minitaur Startled by the fight jumps back and screams " You will pay me soon!" And runs through the trees. Davka stands and thanks the stranger. What is thou's name? Asks Davka My name is not important, but if you must know its is Eilhana Loyalar. Are you related to Kevkas the sword smith! Yes. No wonder you could slash through that Minitaur's axe with one slash! I am not as good as I may seem. With that sword you are! Don't judge someone by there sword. I'm sorry I didn't get your name. Its Davka Darkeyes nice to meet you Eilhana Loyalar. Well Davka you shouldn't judge someone by the sword they wield. Would you like to join up on my quest Eilhana Loyalar? What is your quest for? My quest is for the sword of strength, but I can't reach it without help. It is hidden in the swamps of Ferigold. All the way out there! Are you insane Davka! Some might say that. My father calls me stubborn, and my friends think I'm insane. I will not stop until I reach that sword. I may be stubborn or insane, but I will not rest until I have the sword. I will join you under one circumstance. Yes what may that be? I get my choice of everything we find except the sword. I agree to your terms Eilhana Loyalar. Ok then Davka we will be off, to Vemm! Who goes there yells the Guard on the Fortified wall of Vemm. Eilhana Loyalar! Oh come right in OPEN THE GATE shouts the guard. Well Davka have you been to Vemm before? Eilhana asks as they walk into Vemm. No I have.. Davka stops in the middle of his speech. As he looks around at all the shops, house, and stands lining the streets. I never would have guessed it was this BIG! Yells Davka. Some passerby looks at him oddly then carry on. I'll take you to my Dad's house he lives right over there. Ok says Davka. *Knock* *Knock* Who is it? Asks a man. "Its me father!" Kevkas opens the door surprised to see Eilhana. I can't believe you didn't get the wood I needed! Father this is Davka. Davka this is my father. Nice to meet you young sir says Kevkas shacking Davkas hand Nice to meet you too Kevkas. Davka is on a quest for the sword of might father. Oh the sword of might! I remember my master making that when I was his apprentice! He knew that it would bestow too much power to the man that wield it, so he hid it in the marshes for the spirits to protect. I know father you have told me the tale a thousand times now! By Davka do you wish to risk your life going into the marshes to retrieve this sword? I feel it as my duty to because MY father went to the marshes to look for it and never came back. I want to fulfill his quest. Well that's reasonable, but if your father didn't come back what makes you so sure you will come back. Well my father went alone I will bring others. It may be rough, but I feel I can do it! Father I would like to go with Davka. My child in the marshes! I will only let you go if your brother comes with! Oh not Seakas father! Yes daughter for you to go Seakas has to go with! Fine, I will let him come father. Ok, Seakas!!! Come here! Coming Father! Now Seakas I know you are still learning how to smith weapons, but that will have to wait. I want you to go with Eilhana to the marshes. Ok father, but what is the reason? They want to find my masters sword of might. Oh not that father. Yes, Seakas you must help them on their journey. You will leave in the morning, but for now we will eat! Announces Kevkas.
