The Guide of Argos

Chapter 1

Falcon walked out of his house and proceeds to go to the Academy. However, as he is walking he didn't notice a bunch of bandits hiding in a bush behind him. As Falcon steps forward though, he fell into a trapdoor "Ouch where am I" He thought as his mind went elsewhere and he soon fainted from exhaustion. When he woke up he is in the Academy and is greeted by Farrow, the GrandMaster of the Academy. "Ah, Falcon, great to see you've finally woken up"The GrandMaster responded.

Falcon saw that he is in a room with lots of windows as he stared outside. After the GrandMaster allows him to go to the Grand Galleyway for the Choosing of Classes(occupations), he meets his old friend Carson Falmek again "Hey Carson!" Carson looks up at Falcon" Hello Falcon" He said"What class are you choosing" he added afterwards "I don't know, maybe Mage or something" he responded "Cool. See you around" He said and then left to join his table for the feast. Falcon looked around and saw that a variety of unusual people are there. He shook his head around it and tried to choose his class but got stuck on whether to choose warrior or mage "Choose Mage" someone said beside him. "My name is Sceptor and you should choose Mage as you get to use magic and all of that stuff." Falcon still feels unsure of this person as he slowly backs away from the goblin. Finally, after two hours of people choosing their class, it's now time for Falcon's turn as he says that he wants to be a Mage. The crowd cheered however Falcon did not know why as he went towards his table and sat down. However, he noticed that a Scullen(a type of Dragon escaping from the school but did not mention it to his friends. He then heard the Elves whispering to one another and wondered what the heck is going on here. There seems to be some kind of prophecy involving him and a man named Argos. Falcon don't ponder about it anymore. However, as sudden as a change of weather, the sirens began sounding alerting the school that they are under attack.

An elf named Oblech asked the questions everyone's been having on their minds "Who's attacking us?" "Why are they attacking us" However then an enormous sound filled the air like cracks of thunder as a very hoarse voice filled the air. "I have sent the goblins to besiege this Academy. If you do not surrender, be warned: I shall come back for you." He then created a great laugh and disappeared. "Who was that," Falcon asked an Elf girl about the same age as him "It was Argos" she responded with a laugh "But come on, we don't have all day. Let's fight those goblins" as she ran off towards the exit. Falcon followed her reluctantly out into the courtyard where he saw some Fire Golems along with the Goblins. Several students already on the battleground trembled in fear at the sight of them. They are twenty feet behemoths on the battlefield, knocking out any opposition in their way. As their efforts grew futile, more and more goblins arrived, this time fully armed, with enchantments to protect against spells. Now, the students retreated towards the West Wall as more and more soldiers keep arriving from the nearby Goblin kingdoms to support the mysterious voice. A mysterious person appeared halfway through the battle to cast a spell to destroy all of the invading forces. "I'll be going now" he finally said. Falcon and the others were dumbstruck at what just happened."How is this possible. I thought that powerful magic like this is just in the academy records...Unless the rumours are true. Maybe powerful magic is in his blood or something. Or maybe he could have learned the magic from someone else." he said to his teammates at his table. After all that was discussed, they started telling each other their names. The young elf is called Ileo, the tall muscular Dracvian(a human with a snake's tail) is called Vector and the Blue Xado is called Walter. After the "Talk" ends, they all went to their respective rooms and fall asleep to the sound of a crackling fire. The next day, Falcon decides to escape from the school as the word is it that more dark forces are now invading the capital. Falcon packed his things and was just about to go out the door and into the chilly, cool air when he heard footsteps behind him. It is Ileo. She said

"The principal is already suspicious of you when you entered the Academy. He said that you have hidden power that no one else in this Academy does not and he is extremely jealous of both your power and your wealth. He is already sending out robots to search for you now. I'm glad you have finally made the choice to escape when you can."Falcon gave her a look but she ignored it. Just then when Ileo was about to say something, a loud, dirty and foggy locomotive arrived. Ileo and Falcon snuck inside the busy, crowded, bustling station and snuck onto the train to Antersburg, the third-largest city in all of the Human Republics to continue their conversation there. Ileo continues to say what she has to say" Of course, I'm not leaving because I hate the Academy, it's because of our stupid principal. Do you even know what happened to him? Falcon didn't answer her, instead diverting her attention"Oh we're almost here. Awesome!" then proceeded out into the warm fresh air of Antersburg. He regretted it immediately as he coughed up a Skourg
