Prologue
Once upon a time, there was a king of a small nation.
The king owned all the region to the East, and was well-liked by all the villagers for his kindess and his low taxing rate, which made the villagers enjoy him more that the kings before him.
But the King was growing old, and he had no heir to his kingdom.
When he died, there would be no one to take his place. However, after 9 months, the king's wife had a young son, but she died soon after. The queen's final wish was for the child to live a good life and to become the heir to the kingdom.
The king named his son Jaden, meaning "thankful".
And that was what the king was, thankful for his beloved son. After a few months, a get-together was formed with the Queen of the North kingdom. The queen herself was great friends with the king.
The queen also had a young son named Jesse who was at least a year older than Jaden. The two seemed to like each other, which gave the king and queen of the two nations an idea.
Jesse and Jaden would be married to each other when they grew old enough. Everyone in the kingdom was excited.
All except for one person...
An enchanter named Adrian Gecko.
Jaden's birth was of little concern to him, because he was currently plotting on how to take control of the kingdom, by means of the forbidden arts of dark magic.
But Adrian's plans were foiled by the soldiers of the King's army, Jim Cook being the leader of the army. Adrian was then banished from the village, but as he left, he swore revenge on the King, saying that the kingdom would one day be his.
The king sent the army after the enchanter, but they were attacked by a strange beast.
The soldiers returned injured, all except Jim, who was never seen again. Never seen or heard from. The king sent out search parties, but was unable to locate the knight.
Jim was gone.
Jaden was upset by the knight's disappearance, seeing as how he liked the knight like a brother for so many years. But after a while, the search party gave up on looking for their beloved friend, figuring him devoured by the Great Animal that had attacked the knights.
And this... is where our story begins...
