A New Land, A New Hope, A New War
The group of warriors and mages grew edgy as they walked farther into the wilderness, always fearful of the ever present danger of pk'ers. They were merely bodyguards on an expedition to find a new land. Heading this expedition was the prestigious Reldo Senior. They ventured farther into the wilderness until they came to a great stone wall which seemed to stretch on forever to the east and west. Reldo Senior looked at his map and looked for the sign. "Hmm, a tree with moss behind it resembling a door..." he pondered. He looked at the wall and quickly found it. "Here,” he stated. The four mages of the group started firing bolts at it until it the moss disappeared. The moss had covered an entrance to a narrow cave. They trudged on until they came to a dead-end. Reldo Senior consulted his map one last time. They were to look for a red topaz imbedded in the rock and cast high alchemy on it which would then turn it into a door. An arrow wizzed down the cave and hit one of the mages directly in the heart. They had been followed! The warriors raced into the darkness of the cave. There was a great amount of swords clashing against armour. The mages gave support by firing fire bolts into the darkness. While the rest of the expedition cringed in fear, Reldo Senior calmy tapped one of the mages’ shoulders. "Please, blast the ceiling of the cave", he said out of sheer desperation. The mage cast him a quizzical glance. Then a look of understanding crept across his face. He quickly communicated his master’s desire to the other mages. They began firing at the ceiling. Rocks started falling, and in the midst of the cave-in, Reldo Senior said in his final moments, "No one shall ever find this place! I am doing this for the good of all RuneScape..." He thought no one would ever find it, until now. Reldo woke up in a cold sweat. Why, father, did you leave me? He knew his father had gone on an expedition into the wilderness, but his father had never told him why. His mother had always said that they had been ambushed by pk'ers. Reldo, however, knew there was something more. "I'll find out what really happened to you, father, someday…" his voice trailed off as he fell into an uneasy sleep. After awakening the next morning he began alphabetizing the Library of Varrock's seemingly endless stacks of books when a mysterious old man appeared. "Reldo,” he spoke, "I have something that your father would've wanted you to have.” The mysterious old man handed him a map. "Wait,” exclaimed Reldo. "You knew my father?" he hastily added. But the mysterious old man had already vanished. Just then, Reldo's closest friends, Bernard, William, and Michael, entered the room. "How's it going, Reldo?" exclaimed Bernard. "Do you have any quests for us?" queried Michael. "Yes, Michael, I believe I have a quest for us all," he said with a hint of adventure. Reldo quickly told them of the story of his father, the mysterious old man, and the map. "We'll do it! We will attempt to finish your father's dreams!" loudly proclaimed William. "Excellent,” exclaimed Reldo, "Meet me here tomorrow at the break of dawn. Our journey will begin then.” The three men shook their heads in agreement. After they had gone, Reldo pulled out a necklace which contained his father's portrait. "Soon, father, we will know the truth,” Reldo murmured quietly. By: 13oom13a |
