we entered the mediums shop and was greeted by an old man dressed in faded purple robes, "what can i do for you young children this fine afternoon" he said joyfully "we need a little information is all" said james and the man smiled "well than ask away" he smiled we explained my situation to him and he placed his hand on my head and after a minute he took it off, "your coming he was no accident he said "your no normal human, your a mage" he said with a more serious tone "but the mages are gone" said james "wait whats a mage" i asked having no idea what was going on, "mages where very powerful humans capable of preforming incredible magic, however around 100 years ago duing a meeting of the council of mages in spiritvale the arch mage was murdered by a fellow councilmen working for a powerful demon whom wanted to take the power of all mages for himself, so in order to prevent this the mages sealed all their power into the one thing that could contain it, a human soul born of pure mage blood" said the old man, "and thats me?" i asked and he nodded "however the demon will be looking for you im sure" he said with a warning tone, "than we have to go" said james "to where?" i asked james looked at me "Elfiel" he said "theres a man there who might know what to do" he said as he grabbed my arm and ran out, tossing a gold coin on the table. as we ran down the street i asked "whats Elfiel" james looked over his shoulder "its the elvish capital" he replied and we ran until we got to the inn. james ran inside grabbing his things as did clover and collan, just then lilly walked in and gave me a necklace "as long as you wear this i can follow you" i put it on and we left towards a cart driver, "can you take us the the waystone?" asked james and the cart driver smiled "sure but why do you wanna go out there?" he asked and james pulled out a small bag of gold "no time to explain" he said and the cab driver smiled and took the bag "hop in good sirs" and they rode to the the edge of town where a large stone with a door shaped hole sat. james walked up to it and whispered something under his breath and suddenly the stone lit up and a large bold of light struck the top of it, than the hole seemed to become a portal with a spiriling cloud of smoke forming inside, james nodded "well lets go" as he walked through the smoke as clover and collan followed, i slowly walked closer and decided to take chance, i closed my eyes and told myself i was fine and proceeded thought the portal as my journey began
