Long Live the Emperor

My eyes hurt when I woke. I cried so much last night. I wanted to learn to be a real soldier, to fight like a man.

Miron made me feel like a little kid, I guess I am one. I walked out and grabbed an apple. It was good enough

for breakfast. A few minutes passed by and I was already getting bored. I thought I could check out the

forbidden cottage. Miron had to be keeping something good there.

I slowly removed the lock from the door. I cracked it open to make sure he wasn't there. I went inside the

cottage, Cardon wanted to go, but he was to big to fit through the door so I had to keep him outside.

I gasped, all around was the Empire's symbols and armor. There were tons of paper everywhere with big fancy

words. I looked through all of it. There were a lot of stuff about wyverns. Books and books about the dragoons,

how they control wyverns, what the wing looks like. Miron had all these books about wyverns why? Did he

want his own pet wyvern. Maybe it was something to do with the Empire. I started to leave when I looked on

his desk to find a letter.

Miron

Our status report has located the last wyvern. It is said that it is found within the walls of Fynn. The wyvern is held

by a family of two, a mother Elena and her son Kain. They live in a small red roofed house.

Your mission is to find a way to retrieve the wyvern. You'll be undercover as a guard in training. Under any

circumstance you must not compromise your cover. They must not find anything out about the Remnants.

Don't fail,

Commander Leon

Miron was suppose to take Cardon away from me. He was going to take my best friend from me. I've only

known Cardon for three years but me and him are best friends. I can still remember the wind in my face from

when the first time I met him. I loved him so much. I could never let Miron take Cardon away from me.

Miron was part of the Empire. I heard a Cardon screech outside. I looked out a window and Miron was chaining

Cardon so he couldn't move. I ran outside carrying my spear. I rushed at Miron, but he dodged. He took his

sword and shield out. He tried to ram right into me, and I held up my shield and cut one of the chains free to let

Cardon free.

Cardon started blowing fire. I jumped in the air and almost landed on Miron. He slashed at me, I ducked. Fire

was everywhere. Cardon was trying to help but he was just burning the trees. Miron caught me off guard, I had

to dodge out of Cardon's fire. I fell to the ground. Miron kicked my shield. He looked me straight in the eye.

"You know too much, it doesn't matter though. I was gonna kill you anyway. Long live the Emperor!" He

exclaimed to me in his cold voice.

He stabbed his sword right in my chest. He ran towards Cardon, took the chains, and spurred him. I was on the

ground, and I could feel the warmth of my own blood. I saw the whole forest and cottage burning, and I saw

Miron riding Cardon over the mountains.
