Before The Beginning

Chapter 1: The Prologue
Greetings reader my name is, well in the game you can name me whatever you want but in this story my name is Guv.
If you are reading this I assume you are a Dragon Quest VIII fan, this is my story before the story. Now let's see how to start… ah yes.
I was eight years old with no memory of my past, I didn't know who my parents were or where I came from or even why I had a little mouse named Muncie as a pet, after all how could I have imagined that my father was a prince of Argonia and my mother was a Dragovian or even that my mouse was my grandfather in disguise.
Anyways somehow I ended up a castle Trodan were I became a servant boy, being a servant there wasn't bad Trode was a good king, surprisingly vain for someone as weird looking as him but a good king never the less. All the people who worked at the castle were like family to me but none were closer to me then Princess Medea.
I met her shortly after arriving at the castle and we quickly became friends, as I grew so did my feelings for her, by age 14 (2 years after becoming a solider for the palace) I realized I was in love with Medea.
I keep these newly developed feelings inside after all what would she want with a commoner like me when she could have the handsome prince of Argonia (I had no idea what he was like at the time)
So here I am a strapping young man of 18, Medea an elegant young woman of the same age a Trode just the same as ever, so that brings us to the night of February 1st the day that changed my life forever.
To be continued…
