Journey to the End

Hal Chapter I

In a world with orcs, wizards, goblins, and that stuff is where I live.Yahhhh. Anyways I haven't told you all who I am. I am Hal, a 13 year old blacksmith that has black hair, black eyes, tan skin, 4'9" (four feet, nine inches), and no parents. But I hold up my store with the little money I have. At least I know how to use a sword. I remember what happened as if it was yesterday. I had to make a metal chest plate, iron sword, and a dark stone blade, which is simple as eating, (OMGS a Hephaestus Demigod O.o)when I heard two people walk to my store. I said as usual,"welcome to the iron anvil what item would you-"

I stopped after feeling two arms grab both my arms. I screamed as I shook my legs ," What the bloody HELL IS GOING ON!!" I then realized the two were knights of king. One of them behind their helmet said,"The king wishes to see you."
"Why didn't he send a messenger?"
"Too important."

After a handful of time we made it to the castle, and let me say: IT'S HUGE!!!!! I might be exaggerated, but it looked as big as half the kingdom. The drawbridge dropped letting us go in the castle. The throne room had a red velvet carpet leading to throne with the king atop of it. The king was last time I checked over 70 years of age. I pulled my arms away from the knights and bowed before the king. "Young boy, the oracle wishes to see you. She is in the room on the second floor to the right." I nodded and followed the directions. When I opened the door, the room was empty. "Hello???" I asked as I walked in. After I was inside the door closed behind me. The room illuminated in a purples-ish color. A mist in the room formed a beautiful woman. I heard her say," Hal Smith (I'm not good with names ok), you are the one." I said," The one what."
"I shall tell you, but first a story."
"Oy vay."
"Sshhhhh."
"Sigh."
"Once, a very, very long time ago, there was a king. The king had two sons. One was a nice young boy named Sarveus, but the other was evil and driven by chaos named Arcove. Once the two boys became 20 years of age, Arcove wanted power, and he murdered the king. Sarveus made a rebellion to stop Arcove. Good prevailed, but at the cost of many lives. With Arcove defeated, the people made Sarveus king. But today Arcove came back, and it's up to you, Hal Smith (not goo with names) to stop Arcove."
"Dang that's deep."
"You will have 3 weeks to get to the forbidden castle in the area the sun never rises."
"Ok, but can I bring others?"
"Only two random people."
"How will I know who it is?"
"Trust me, you'll know." She then vanished into the smoke. "Wait," I yelled, grabbing the air,"I need answers still!!" It was to late, the oracle has disappeared.

I then went down to the throne room and told them all what happened . The king requested for the guards to get my stuff ready. After my stuff got ready to leave, I said my goodbyes to the kingdom and made my way east.
