Prologue,
It was cold and dark , their only light was moon light.
On a journey to nowhere they walked for what seemed a life time. Sore feet, tiered legs, hungry and thirsty, lost and lonely

Chapter 1,
Silver O'śhëą was a traveller. She went from place to place always with her donkey , Cherra . They traveled to different lands to find a new life for them selves. Cherra was the only thing Silver could call family. A beautiful brown animal with black patches. If you didnt known better you would have thought she was a cow. Silver on the other hand was not as beautiful-well not anymore. Maybe before she was attractive, but that was long ago. She had been so busy with coming and going she had no time for putting an effort into how she looked , why should she? When Silver was young she was royalty, the princess of Halaaty, a beautiful land to the west of the coast , but the people of the land never thought of her worthy to be the heir of the Crown. So her mother , Queen Tatua , decided to search the land for a tutor to teach her how to be a lady. But before she could , Silver ran away and changed her name, to Silver. Her hair was a deep red colour before she left but over time it turned into the colour of stone, not of old age, as she was only 17 ,but of the frost, it became like ice. If there was one thing that gave her emotions away the most it would be her eyes . Silver was always known for her beautiful eyes, dark brown with a mahogany ring around them .She also had a pale face as there wasnt much sunlight at this time of year in Deroliatin , the largest city in Halaaty and close to the Trisidon Mountains . Which was exactly were she was planing to go, but it started to get dark. She left her lantern in the Deroliatin marketplace to get fixed and new oil but forgot and left it behind , and the moonlight just wasn't enough. As the donkey and the traveller ventured up something they were assuming was the mountain, she could hear something that sounded like a horses hooves and a carts weels , roughly going over thr rocks and bumps in the path. "Shhhh che che, its ok ," she said, as Cherra started to get restless . She looked behind her and was able to make out something that looked like a man riding on a horse, with a cart full of goods behind him. *Ears like a hound* she thought. As the dark figure started to get closer she statrted to venture up the mountain a lot quicker.
Chapter 2,
When she got to the the top of the mountain, she saw a peice of inhabited woodland and decied that was were she would camp for the night , until the morning came so she could carry on with her jouney to find a village. She and Cherra would stay there for a week or more to equip more food, clothes and possibly weapons , depending on her next destination.*Sometimes she would ask around the village ,were ever that may be, to see were to go next. Or she'd just go with flow.
She took the blanket of Cherra back ,that gave the the donkey warmth, and lay it down on the grassy and mucky ground. Cherra lay down at her head and she used her warm belly as a pillow. Her eye lids started to get heavy and she was slowly drifting away in to the land of dreams when she hear a loud deep voice summon her.
"hey ! Wake up. What are you doing lying there. Theres an inn in the village about 3 miles from here. Plus , your really in the way." She stood up but nearly fell back down again as she was so tired.
"Uhh who are you, and why are you speaking to me like an idiot?"
she said. Shed only know him for a couple of seconds but she had already made her judgement of him, fool...
"Look kid-"
"KID?" He started to regret the words he just spoke, like he was trying to put them back in in his mouth. "Person.. I have a lot to do and only a short amount of time to do it in so if u dont mind being so helpful as to move"
"Can you not just do aroud me?" She looked at the big mound of valuables behind him in his cart. "What is all that stuff?" She asked, and waited for answer while he went over to Cherra and started to stroke her head. "What a beautiful donkey. It looks like a cow."
"She gets that a lot"
"She? Oh its a female. What is she called?"
"Cherra. By the way you still havent answered both my questions" she said , starting to get really fed up with him.
"What questions?"
"Huhhh, who are you and whatis all that junk behind you?"
"JUNK?" " valuables"
"better, my name is legis and i am a .. collector"
she could tell he was lying. "A collector of what?" she asked "other peoples contents of there homes?"
"no-yes"
"so your a theif?"
"a good theif"
"funny , i only ever thought there was one"
he walked back over to his cart and picked up a china plate
"see this? this is a super valable plate,real china,so its obviously gong to cost alot of money. But not for me. i go to a traid shop to get this plate turned into sweet cash and give it to some hobo or a poor family.I steal of the rich to give to the poor."
"hmm, now were have i heard that before? your some kind of robin hood?"
"pritty much"
