Chp. 1- Prologue

The Truth Empire started out as like any other small empire. They began as the Dragon Busters resistance 15 years ago and 5 years later had conquered the Steel Gunners Empire. In a matter of 10 years after the fall of Steel Gunners Empire, lord Sabbath conquered all bringing an era of peace and prosperity amongst what had become the Truth Empire. Sabbath was 32 years off age and was already loved by his people for his generosity to the poor. At the end of the wars, Sabbath had appointed a new General of his armies; Justin. Justin started off as a private in the beginning of the wars, rising quickly to the rank of Captain of the Guards in a short time of 5 years. Justin lead many soldiers into 20 battles and all became victories. Out of 1000 soldiers he lead into battle, he only lost 100. He was a genius on the battlefield and any who he fought either died or ran. When he was appointed General, he appointed 2 men his personal body guards and his second in commands; Ernie adn Septim. Ernie adn Septim were in the training academy with Justin just before the wars began. Ernie, like Justin, became an expert archer and Septim became an expert swordsmen. The two were always part of the invasions Justin lead. When Justin was appointed General, Sabbath appointed Brutii the new Captain of the Guards. Brutii was a good man off duty and a fierce warrior on the job. Brutii appointed two new sergents; Johnny Bacardi, in command of a small catapult division, and Shakis, in command of Sabbaths personal body guards. Little did any of them know, but this present day, their lives were about to change!!

*2 miles north of Truth*

As the retreating soldiers of Truth were moving north, Ernie and Septim had passed off their wounded comrades to passing soldiers and had started fighting  and killin off their persuers. 10 elves had noticed the retreating soldiers and had followed them up to this point. Ernie was shooting his bow as quickly as he could. The first three shots missed because the elves jumped onto the tree branches. One elf didnt get off the branch quick enough because when Ernie had shot again, this time it hit the elf. It hit with such velocity that it knocked the elf back 3 feet killing him instantly. Septim was having no trouble with the elves. They werent even close to maching his skill with a blade. When all was said and done, 10 elves lay dead upon the ground. Blood was all over Ernie and Septim. It was either dripping off the tip of their noses or running down their face and off their chins. They were exhausted after their fight. They regrouped at the fort Jonny had taken the catapults. Femke lay unconcious in Justins arms.

Jonny, report!

Every catapult under my command made it out ok sir. We had a few encounters but nothing we couldnt handle.

I have to take her to my tent before the wound gets infected and she dies. Give me a head count when i come back ok?

Yes sir!

Jonny started the head count of the soldiers that were left throughout the outpost. Justin ran into his tent and layed Femke on the bed and went and got hot water, needle and thread. He got back noticing she was struggling to get up. Justin ran over to her and put his hand on her should.

Dont move or you'll pass out.

What......What happened?

Elves over ran our position. So we grabbed all the wounded ones and retreated to the north outpost. We are patching the wounded and leaving before the elves arrive.

Then lets.....

Your not go any where in your condition. Now lay down, i need to sew your wounds.

*Truth City*

Sabbath was thrown to the ground by an elf in front of another elf. Sabbaths hands were behind his back in shakles. A elf in leather robes and in a silver chainmail  stood berfore him. He had short hair and long pointy ears. Deathuelf; leader of the renegade elves.

HaHaHa, and i thought this city was going to be a challenge to take. Pathetic!!!

In Deathuelfs right hand was a small wooden club. He struck Sabbath on the left side of his face. Blood was pouring out of his mouth. Then Deathuelf knelt down to Sabbaths height.

Now why dont you be a good little king and tell me where your forces would have retreated to hmmm?

You'll have to kill me first.

Just then Sabbath spit blood into his Deathuelfs face. Then he struck Sabbath again this time even more blood spilled out onto the ground.

In due time Sabbath, in due time. For now I'll leave you in the capable hands of my second-in-command Benji. He will get you to tell me all your secrets. Hahaha Benji, deal with him.

An even meaner looking elf came into view. This one had everything black; his armour, his weapons, his hair, even his eyes.

Yes sir. Me and him are going to have loads of fun together. Take him to the jail.

2 large elves grabbed Sabbath and dragged him off to the jail.

*Northern Truth Outpost*

Femke lay back down looking at Justin watching what he was doing. He stuck the needle into hot water sterilizing it. He lifeted her armour up enough to see the wound.

Ok, this is going to hurt a little. But i promise it will feel better after it is all over with.

In a quite voice she said ok and Justin began. He poked the needle from the inside of the wound to the outside. Femke started to cry from the pain. Justin wiped away the tears and told he had to do it otherwise it will get infected and she would soon die. With a nod from her, Justin continued adn soon finished and smiled at her.

All done. Ill be back to check on you I promise, just stay in bed.

He left the tent and Jonny had just ran up.

Sir, 200 swordsmen, 100 archers, and 15 catapults.

Damn not even close enough to mount an assualt. I have an idea. Send a messanger to the east to the mountains.

But sir those are were the dwarves are located.

I know. Send a second messanger to the western woods.

The elves?But why?

The ones Im sending him to are good friends of Truth. Tell them Truth and its king have been captured and General Justin is in need of aid. Tell him it is time were Elves, Humans, and Dwarves unite to battle a tyrant.

Jonny gav the messangers to the riders and they set off.

Now what Justin.

Now, we wait. I need to check on a few people so attend to any injured or help repair anything.

Justin first checked the medical facility where all the wounded soldiers were. He shook many soldiers hands and accepted many thanks from many soldiers for getting them out of there before many more had died. Brutii and Shakis were still unconcious but the doctor said they would be awake in a few days. Justin walked back to his tent to check on femke. Ernie and Septim were standing there discussing something between themselves. Ernie spoke first.

Justin what are we going to do now?

Yes Justin, sooner or later the elves will venture this way and find us.

I know but that wont be for awhile. They have Sabbath so they will torture him first. But keep your voices down Femke is sleeping.

Justin showed them a map on his desk and told them his plan. There was an abandoned fort in the woods a days ride north from their exact position that was built by humans and elves. Under it was a secret underground tunnel that lead all the way to Truth into Sabbaths room. Justin, Septim, Ernie, Shakis, Brutii, adn Jonny were going to meet the elves and/or dwarves there, if any were coming. 2 days later the first messanger returned from the dwarves. King Dane adn 10,000 dwarves and 5 catapults were coming to meet them in 3 days. The second messanger returned the next day. High Elf Dynast was coming with 10,000 elves mixed between archers and swordsmen and would arrive in 2 days. When Brutii and Shakis woke, Justin told them of the plan. They both suited up and the six headed off to the abanded fort.
