He Man Victory

Chapter 16 Orko's Explination

Orko was busy practicing with his new wand. He was getting used to using a wand again. Even with a wand his magic was a little iffy but better. "Orko your magic is better control now you got a new wand," Man at arms said. "but it still has problems from time to time," he said.

"I know it does but I am practicing," Orko said.

"Orko you always say you will explain later about why your magic has very little control here, but you never explain," Andra said.

"Yeah you have been saying that for years," Adam said.

"Okay I am going to tell all of you," Orko said. "You all might want to sit down this is going to take a long time to explain," he said.

Everyone sat down. "It all began long before I was born, before my parents were born, it was thousands and thousands of years ago. About 24,000 years in fact, any Trollan that old would be very elderly in fact because I told you my kind can live for thousands of years," he said.

"But what happened so long ago?" Teela asked.

"Keep listening and you might find out," Man at arms said.

"There a mage smith by the name of Azron." Orko said. "He felt like maybe there was more out there for him a greater destiny than just spending his life making wands, staffs, medallions, and other magical items. He felt like he could do great things one of these days but he doubted he was the type." he said. "One day he decided to make a staff and medallion shaped like a ring for himself," he said. "He didn't have conduit for his magic before," he said. "In fact he began working as a mage smith to help his family who was very poor make ends meet," he said. "But luckily the mage smith he served under helped him with his education still such as reading and writing and magic," he said.

Flash to the past shows Azron working on the medallion and staff. Then after almost a eight months of hard work the staff and medallion were complete. "There all done," Azron said. "My own staff and medallion some of my finest work," he said. "I am so pleased with it." he said.

Back the present.

"Azron was proud of his work and showed his friends who were impressed by it," Orko said. "One of his friends was impressed too, but he scoffed at the idea that Azron might be destined for something very special," he said. "His friend claimed on day he will have the rest of the universe eating out of Trolla's hand," he said. "Azron warned his friend that sounds like a path that leads to darkness," he said. "But his friend blew him off," he said. "Then Azron thought he heard someone calling to him and excused himself and followed the calls," he said. "But no one else heard the calls," he said.

"Was he hearing a ghost?" Cringer asked.

"No," Orko said. "When he made it to the source of the calls he saw who had called him and where he was," he said. "He was face to face with the star tree," he said.

"You mentioned the star tree before what is it?" Man at arms said.

"A very old tree ancient as a can be grown from one of many star like seeds and this one fell to Trolla and the others the fell didn't find a place to take root when they fell on other worlds," Orko said. "This one did," he said. "It sat there and soon after Trollans discovered magic and it started to sprout the Trollans cared for it and grown into a mystical tree with huge stars in it's branches and an eye that can see what is in ones heart and see many things and know ones destiny," he said. "It is a very special and sacred place on Trolla," he said.

"Wow," Marlena said.

Flash to the past. Azron saw he was before the star tree and got down on his knees. "Star Tree what do I humbly enjoy the pleasure?" Azron asked.
