Love and magic

Chapter One

   The city of Malvadir is filled with bustling streets all day and night. In a tavern on the main street late at night sits a young woman waiting for someone, someone important. "You need a refill miss?" asks the tall half orc barkeep who goes by the name Torgan

"Oh yes please Torgan, thank you" she replies with a smile "Are you meeting someone tonight miss?" "Actually yes, Orym is supposed to be coming to meet here tonight" she says Orym and Mystia always meet every week, at the same place at the same time. They have been friends since they were children, Mystia's mother being his mothers close friend and she also taught him some practical magic for healing.

"Oh well then miss Mystia i'll make sure to bring the usual over when he gets here" "Thank you Torgan" she replies with a kind smile, Torgan walks away to refill her glass and get the nicest bottle of whiskey he has ready for the elven princes arrival. While she's waiting for her friend to arrive she starts reading through her grandmother's Gilmore since she feels like it's time Mystia starts taking her magic and her becoming the head of the coven seriously. With her deep in the book she doesn't notice the tall figure standing above her.

"Am I interrupting? I can come back later" Orym says smirking down at her "Orym!! You're here finally! Took you long enough" she says smiling up at him, she had been waiting for him for over an hour, he was late. "Sorry i'm late but mother needed my help with some work stuff, rather boring" She rolls her eyes at him "You're to be king one day, that work is going to become your daily life, you know this right?" At that time Torgan comes over with the whiskey and two glasses "TORGAN!! Thank you, always the finest of whiskeys from you. Best in the city" Orym says arms wide welcoming Torgan to their table "Well only the best for you sir" Torgan says with a laugh while pouring the both of them a drink.

"Of course I know that love but that doesn't make it any less boring. Now! How's life been treating you since I've last seen you? Still training with grams?" He asks looking at her book not understanding a word it says "yes grams has started training me everyday now. Says she feels something is going to happen soon, something not good so she wants me to be as ready as I can.. just incase" Orym looks at her confused " Something bad? Bad how? Grams feelings always come true" she shakes her head "I don't know she says she'll tell me everything when she thinks I'm truly ready. But I've never seen her and mom this on edge before" she says with a look of concern coming over her face, Orym reaches over and takes her hand "whatever it is just know I'll always be here with you, right by your side. You won't have to fight this alone.... Forever and always by your side" she smiles and squeezes his hand lightly "Thank you Orym, I can always count on yo-" she starts to say but is interrupted by a loud bang coming from outside the tavern followed by shouts "WERE UNDER ATTACK!!!"
