Fixed: The names people where saying that the names of Danielle and Daniel where to human so I changed them to Diekara and Dain.
Chapter 3: Soul do I Part
Feet hitting the hard solid stone surface of the corridors of House Baenre. The shadows of the spider sculptures on the rough stone walls. It had fourteen since that dark day when luck found it's way saving the young drow from his brother's metallic sword, and as the sword came down the snakes struck killing his brother Dain. His own sister had saved his life and Hysperea Baenre had to bury Dain.
Hysperea couldn't believe it was so long ago, after that day he had to continue his daily whippings and cleaning and refurnishing of House Baenre. But today, today was when he was to be placed thirteenth boy of House Baenre there the new Matron of House Baenre. Matron Dalka Baenre his sister and trainer until he was ten said she died in a glorious battle against Drizzt Do'Urden the infamous drow rogue.
The drow realized he had closed his eyes he looked around and saw that he was going down the staircase the branded staircase with spider carvings etched into it. It was the same staircase he had fell off the ledge and sprained his ankle and earned a gash down his leg. At the bottom of the staircase there was a dark form standing who wore a high priestess robe and looking at the young drow it was his sister Diekara the same sister who had murdered Dain and at the same time saved Hysperea's life.
When he reached the bottom of the staircase he landed on the hard rocky surface of House Baenre. He looked up at his sister her features were like her mother's they were fair and beautiful but at the same time mature and smart. Diekara drew her hood down and let her red eyes glow out with the beauty of her face. She drew her face closer to his and said, "Follow me, child." The youngest of the Baenre high priestesses stalked off toward the central room. Hysperea quickly followed, the drow stopped in front of the giant door holding an emblem of a spider on the door.
"Child, you better remember what I taught you or your life just might be squeezed out by my snake headed whip." The young drow swallowed hard and squeezed his fists together; The Lloth high priestess grabbed hold of the spider door latch and pulled the door open. Diekara came in first swiftly followed by the male drow. The high priestess turned off to the side, Hysperea kept on walking he stopped in front of his oldest sister and knelled and bowed keeping his eyes looking at the ground.
"The day has come for all nobles of House Baenre to gather for today servant boy Hysperea Baenre has come to the age of being turned to thirteenth boy of the ruling house Menobezzar once this is done I will choose an profession for him and he will be trained." Matron Dalka put her hand on Hysperea's forehead and green smoke smoothed out of the spider throne which was the Matron's seat, and onto Hysperea it felt like the smoke was trying to evaporate his innocence his kindness. A pain went in side him his legs felt week but he did not fall over, his head was pounding then the green smoke lifted and everything felt back to fine.
"Hysperea Baenre thirteenth boy of House Baenre!" In the corner of his vision he could see High Priestess Diekara frowning, she did not want him to do everything correct, she wanted to kill she feasted for his blood. "Rise second boy." Said the Matron. Hysperea rose still looking at the floor. "Look at me." He brought his gaze up to his sister's masculine face. "You may join the nobles." Hysperea turned around and walked to his siblings. They all stared at him hoping to see what profession the young drow would get. The Matron followed and came to the nobles of House Baenre. He looked at the nobles again and noticed that they were inspecting him.
"He will go to Sorcere." Said the Matron. Sorcere the school of wizards he would become a wizard one of the most highly respected positions for a male. He would spend seven years learning the basics from the highest wizard in the family. Then he would move to Sorcere for twenty years, go to the fighting school for a year and then move on the priestess school for five months.
"Agreed." Said the high priestesses. "Darkalar will train him for seven years." Well it had to be one or the other, thought Hysperea. The nobles always had an argument of which the thirteenth boy's profession would take place and here it was he was to become a wizard a magic user.
Hysperea walked down the hall with his backpack in hand he had noticed his new clothes his silky cloak and his piwafwia carrying the Baenre emblem showing that he was a noble. He had walked to the end of the hall here it was the door to Darkalar's training room the best wizard in House Baenre and also the archmagi of a very large portion of the city.
Hysperea opened the doors and saw that he was in a magnificent room sparkling with trimmed gold walls and pictures of magical symbols all over them. The ceiling was covered in a drawing of the astral plane creatures it seemed that there was the picture of the very large feline creature missing and there was only an outline of it. "Ah, welcome young drow!" said a voice behind. It was the archmagi Darkalar. He had a globe red in his had he threw it at the wall and it burst into flames.
"This will be your home for six, no seven years correct?" asked the wizard. Hysperea nodded. "Well I better show you will be sleeping." Pointing at a gold plated door it said Apprentices in the drow language. 'You don't go in here till your sixth year." Pointing at a gold door with DANGER! Written on it. "This is my bedroom." Pointing at a marvelous diamond door."
The man sighed. "I haven't had an apprentice in a long time, but they asked me to train you because you showed promise said Matron Dalka." The rough looking drow smiled and said, "We will start training tomorrow we will work on basic drow skills like black globe and other easy things like that."
Hysperea went into his room and lye down on the soft comfortable bed, maybe my life isn't so bad, he though maybe it's just getting better.
