"You see my children my story begins a long time ago, when 2 were chosen. 2 gave themselves to the gods, a never ending plea, forsaking all others in what could happen, never knowing that in the end they would know sadness, but in that sadness joy"

"It all started with two young girls, Raven and Hawk, twins if you could believe. They were born and raised in this desert, never knew any other, never knew another loyalty, all there was to them was their tribe and each other. In the long nights they would sit around the fire and listen to their mother, the head of the tribe, tell tales of places you could only dream of. Places where it rains every day of the year, where there were forests as far as the eye could see. Where horses grazed in meadows, where flowers were of plenty."

"These girls listened to these stories and dreamed, played, always that was were they were going to be, they were going to run free, not hide, become priestesses and travel the land, they knew no fear, they new no hate"

"Now children of my tribe listen to this, they never dreamed that their one dream was one that would lead to sadness. They played as they always did, imagining those wondrous lands when the pharaoh's men came. With them was a boy, Kheelan, a young prince, though not of this land and then no one knew, they demanded that the tribe take this boy, he had been found in the streets, his family dead. He would never have been accepted into the great city, not with hair of tarnished gold and sea blue eyes. No he would have been killed as well, so he was taken to this tribe."

"Both girls looked at this boy and could see no reason why he would be killed, his eyes were like many of those in their tribe and his hair was like one of the girls own, perhaps that should have been their first clue, that this boy had to be taken from the city, but no they did not see this. The girls befriended him and from that point forward they were almost always together."

"But as time goes on they changed, as did their dreams. All people changes and the girls started to change, they grew, while as children they were identical, they began to change in different ways, Hawks hair lightened while Ravens deepened. The boy changed as well, he remembered what he had been told and understood who he was, what he was."

"You see as a child Kheelan had never understood what it was to be a prince, it was nothing to him, he knew nothing of his kingdom, or the massacre that forced his family out, of the disaster that killed his family and brought him to this strange land. He was of the desert but as he grew he started to understand who he was, he told no one, how could he tell those he loved that he was royalty? He never said a word, that was until one day men came, they came and tried to take the tribes women, all fought but it was to no use, finally there was no other way but to run."

"The two girls and the boy fled the scene, the girls mother gave the horses and they rode, away, they knew not to were they rode, they knew of no safe place. The boy led them, he was the only one who had ever been out of the desert and he was the only one with any idea of where to go."

"After months of traveling they came across a wondrous sight. A giant body of water, sparkly all hues of blue and green. Lapping at the sand. You could see no end, imagine no end. Kheelan knew this place though, he had seen it once before, fleeing from the enemies of his family."

"They were offered a ride on a ship if they would work for their keep, they had no choice but to accept, the ones who had invaded they village were still out there and were still searching, they did not know why these people wanted them but it was that fear that led them to take the job, to get on that boat and go to this far away land. On this ship all Raven and Hawk could think about was where they were going. They missed there home, their family but the held hope in their hearts that this place they were going to was they place of dreams that they had heard so much about as a children, the place of endless forests and rain every day.
