Everia has never seen peace. Always in a state of constant war and death, Everia and her people could never enjoy life. The major cities were corrupt. They cared for nothing but power and control. Without proper care to keep commoners alive and healthy, rebellions were common but they never got far for anyone caught going against Kings were executed without mercy.
In the year of 2167, there was a small and quite village by the name of Avalyx on the top Mount Kyvahn. No one knew this place existed for sure for it was only known through myths. The people of this village were scared to show themselves to the rest of the world. They didn't want part in the violence and desolation. So they hid, very careful to remain hidden.
In the year of 2169, a boy by the of name Inev was born. He wasn't like the others in Avalyx. He had snow white skin and glowing blue eyes. As a child growing up, at the age of 6 he was very energetic and adventurous. He couldn't stay in one place even though his parents scalded him. He hated the idea of never being able to leave his home. But he didn't know about the war, his parents were afraid to tell him the truth. They didn't want him to live in such a place. But Inev didn't know any better.
In the year of 2179, at the age of 16, Inev snuck outside and decided to leave the village on a short walk. Outside of the icy walls was beautiful to him. The snowflakes falling from the sky so elegant and the pure and innocent vibe of the snow laying still in silence. As inev was crossing frozen pond, he heard a voices. He was scared so he instinctivly took off to hide behind a rock. But he slipped and hit the ice blacking out leaving himself in plain site. Inev awoke a few minutes later with many strange people in strange suits with glowing red eyes and swords surrounding him. Inev jumped to his feet with a terrified look on his face. One of the strange men started towards him. Inev didn't know what to do. He was scared. He darted between the men heading towards his village. As he entered the frozen orb of ice, he saw his parents running about and they saw him enter the village. His mother instinctivly hugged him and started crying. His father let out a sigh of relief. His father said "If you ever do that again I'll beat you a stick, boy.". As he finished that a loud crack and a bright red glow entered the village. All 3 of them looked up with terror on their faces. "They followed me, father...", Inev said. Without a word his father pulled a sword and yelled for them to get to safety. The men were coming. "MARAUDERS! MARAUDERS!", His father screamed over and over. Men from several houses ran out with swords in their hands. Inev and his mother stood there, frozen in fear. They watched as the snow was painted red with blood and bodies fell still to the ground. A man with a rasp voice said "The Mountain People myth is real! Capture the females and kill the rest". Inev started to cry but his mother held him tight. "It's alright baby, I will protect you.", she said. And that is when his father was struck by the red glow of the marauder. He fell to his knees clentching his wound and looked at the man. "My people never wanted this", and he fell in the snow, with absolute silence. Inev's father was killed before very eyes. Inev screamed out for his father but his mother held him. He pushed her away and ran to his father. The marauder looked at him and said "What an idiot.". The man raised his arm and right as he struck, Inev's mother jumped infront of him and took the blow. Time stopped. All emotions were dead he fealt nothing. Inev asked himself, "Why are they doing this?". A kick to the chest brought him back to reality. Filled with nothing but rage, Inev jumped at the man in red. They both fell as the kid hammered the man. Shattering the mask, Inev looked into the man's eyes. Their gazes locked and the man shouted "KILL THIS THING!", he pushed the kid off of him and stood up, looking around. All his men lay dead. The village was dead silent. Only the wind could be heard. "I'LL ANNIHILATE THIS ENTIRE MOUNTAIN!, YOU LITTLE BASTA-". Inev slammed his father's sword into the marauder over and over, tears streaming from his eyes. "I'll never forgive you or your kind for this..". And with that, the man spit out blood.. and his head fell lifeless to the ground. |
