The Adventure of the Magic Knight
Campbell Churchward On a cold and rainy night in the city of Seren a young and noble warrior was born, his mother was proud but his father was out at war against the wizards after many years of constant battle. The king comes back from war with little to no warriors that he left with, the king came to the families cottage in the forest outside of the main city they heard the bad news that his father has passed, this was hard for Leo and his mother Amare.Thirteen years go past and Leo has started his warrior training following in his fat hers footsteps, he doesn't want to let the family name down since they have been by the king's side for generations. After a long day of work at training it was clear that Leo worked the hardest and was destined to be a hero, he worked so hard for many years and the king asked him to meet at his castle instead of going to his next lesson. He walked to the castle with his mother, they got to the gates and was greeted by King Domanari who was excited to see them and get started with some real training. “Leo, what is your last name?” King Domanari asked. “Ecclesia, king.” Leo answered very nervously. “I thought so.” The king exclaimed. “What do you mean, ‘I Thought so? “Well child you are one of the best warriors that I have seen, just like your father.” The king answered.” never got to meet him, he was never there for me, all I had was my mother, all I have is my mother! I have always wanted to be like him, my mother is the best. She puts in double the effort to make up for being a single mother and she wants the best for me.” Leo said with passion. “Well child I am sorry to hear but should we get started with this training.” The king said not caring about what Leo said. “Yes, my king” Leo spends years of his life doing the same thing over and over :Wake up and get changed; Go to the castle; Train with the king until very late; come home and go to bed repeatedly. Amare becomes worried for Leo and feels like she has failed as a mother seeing as she only gets to spend a couple of hours with him but she remembers the deal that she made with him when he was born. “ I will let you do anything to follow your dreams and I will never get in the way of you and your dreams.” Leo gets home from training on his 18th birthday and goes to bed but he hears his mother crying in her room, he wonders why and then goes over to her and comforts her after remembering that is is the day that he was born and his father passed, he spends the rest of the night helping her with everything: Cleaning the house; Her medication and helping her get in bed. When they both go to bed Leo wonders whether he is doing the right thing being a warrior and if the king is using him to end all of the wizards. Leo woke up the next day early and looks through his mothers draws for her medication but instead finds his dad's diary he reads through it and finds a notice for him and starts reading, “ Hey son, you are probably reading this and hate me for not being there for your life but you don’t understand the king is not who you think he is, he is power corrupt, he wants to kill all of the wizards and they aren’t at war like he says they are, the wizards are peaceful you must make a balance in this you are “The Chosen One” you don’t realise but you can master all of the elements of the magic and the king warrior. Please son do what is right, for Seren, your mother and I and the Universe.” Leo has decided to leave the king’s side and after King Dominari hears this news he exiles Leo and his mother and they are in danger, they have nowhere to go and no food. After they realise the situation they are in they go searching for a home when a group of people take them in, they call themselves the 67 balance. These people were told the same thing as Leo and got exiled but were too scared. Leo told them that they are doing this thing tomorrow.
