(Sorry for the lack of updates. I have writers block and promised I wouldn't update until I finished Ch 10. Should be finished soon. Until then, I will post a short story up, and it will be linked here, and my profile. Until then, just re read what is here)

Ring of Wisdom

Prologue
A young rebel watches from his post. He looks to the East. Nothing. To the West. Nothing. To the North. He sees a black shadow. He runs down to the leader. "Mistress! A Shadow approaches from the North!" The leader looks to the boy. He is no older than 12. "Thank you. Go rest now" she walks out of her tent. She can see the Shadow already. She walks towards it, her dress rippling in the wind. "Why hello young Misstress." says the Shadow. It is visible from this distance that he has a Red Aura around him. "I have come for your ring" The Mistress snickers "First of all: its Mia. Not Mistress. And second you will get this ring when my brother saves the world" "I guess I will have to use force" Many red eyes appear around the camp. Mia gasps "D-d-d-d-d" "Demons" finishes the Shadow. "Fine take it" she hands over her ring. "Finally. The Ring of Wisdom" the Shadow turns. The Demons leave but not without a little struggle. Mia goes to turn but she realises too late that the Shadows aura had surrounded her and was dragging her along. Before long she has disappeared into the Shadows

Ch 1
As the sun rises on the first day of September in the year 1492.
In a tree that was hallowed many hundred years before a young elf of only 300 years awakes. He jumps out of the tree. He grabs an apple from that same tree. He pets his pet stag John. "Want a bite?" John shakes his head. The young elf ,named Bhroodon, looks to the coast. It had almost been a month since he landed here. He had stowed away on a ship called the Pinta. "I wonder if Columbus headed back?" He wonders what his brother and sister are doing as well. A tear forms. "I shouldn't have left The Island. It will surely fall without a leader" he looks to the South. "I should find my sisters rebel camp" He puts a saddle on John, jumps onto John and rides South. Little does he know that may be riding to his doom

Ch 2
Meanwhile back on the Island, Damian returns from his trip to the mainland. With his elven sight he can see smoke bellowing from the capital city. With his elven speed he dashes to the capital. "Of all the places! Why Dubh Linn!?" jumping over the walls he sees a Shadow with Red Aura. "Damian! You kept me waiting. Now, I think you know what I came for" Damian is in shock "What is that on your finger?" He looks closer "THE RING OF WISDOM! WHAT DID YOU DO WITH MY SISTER!?!?!?" The Shadow slaps him. "You should know that I do not harm females! Males on the other hand....." Damian's hand glows blue as the Spear of Power appears in his hand. "Fight me, Shadow" The Shadow laughs "No." he grabs the Spear and sends Damian flying.
He walks into the dark streets with Damian being dragged just like his sister

Ch 3
After 3 days and 3 nights Bhroodon arrives at the rebel camp. As he approaches the camp the young rebel (see Prologue) spots him. "Who go's there?!" "Tis I! Bhroodon, brother of your mistress!" The rebel jumps down and runs to Bhroodon. "Hello! I am Nico" If you have come to see your sister then you are too late. She was taken 3 days ago by a strange Shadow Man. She had given him her ring" Bhroodon gasps in horror "Her ring! Not the Ring of Wisdom!" Bhroodon falls to his knees "Nico. I want you to tell me. Where. There. Any. Demons?" Nico nods with a grim look on his face. "They came late into the night when I was on watch" He looks to the North "We can still save her. We would need a team" Bhroodon gets up "I know some people" Nico jumps up "YAH!! We could be like Final Fantasy characters!" "Final what?" "Oh its just a ga......thing. Im from the future you see" smiles. Bhroodon jumps on John. He whistles and another stag appears. "This is Christopher. Hop on" Nico hops on Christopher and (after much protest from the stags and Nico) they head North to find help

Ch 4
In the area that will be home to the Empire State Building, a tower of Shadow Stone stands. On top is a portal as black as a shadow which leads to the Demon Realm. The Shadow looks into it "Master! I have captured the elves you asked for!" His Master turns "All three?" The Shadow staggers back "Th-three?" "Yes. THREE!!!!! Are you deaf!?!?!? Get the last one and NEVER DISAPPOINT ME AGAIN!!!!!" The portal collapses on itself as The Shadow is sent flying off the tower. He gets up "I have to-" he stops as he gasps for breath. "Find that last elf" every light in The New World goes out as The Shadow sets off to find the last elf

Ch 5

After 5 days of riding, Bhroodon, Nico, John the stag, and Christopher the stag arrive at the home of a powerful mage. The mage pulls across the curtains and looks at Bhroodon and Nico. "Who goes there!?" "Tis I, Bhroodon older brother of Mia and twin of Damian, heir to the Elf Throne of..." "Not you! I know who you are! Him!" he points a finger out the window and at Nico "Im... Nico. From........ The future" Nico looks at the mage. "Who are you?" "Me? Why I am the Greatest Mage in all the New World! It says it on this Diploma! They don't give these to EVERY mage you know." Nico looks at it. "Any mage with £20 they do" The Mage yanks the diploma back. "Enough looking. Now. What do you want?" "Nico and I are setting up a team to rescue my sister, the rebel leader" "Ok. Im in" "Just like that?" "Im bored cooped up in here. I wanna go on an adventure!" the Mage jumps out. "So, what is your name?" asks Nico "My name is Steve" blushes "But to be honest Im NOOOOT really a mage. Im a cleric." Bhroodon's ears go red "What?" a blast of energy hits Steve "Owwwwww" Bhroodon runs West, away from Nico,Steve,John the stag and Christopher the stag. But what he does not know is that he is heading towards the Lions Den, and right into the Shadow's grasp

This and the next story I am currently working on are just what happens before the final of the Trilogy which is The Amulet of Courage. It is set in 1492 for a reason.
