Aiden and Artix decided to have a dual. They went to the plains and drew their blades, they fought each other. Aiden was strong, but he needed training. "You are strong but not too quick", said Artix. "Looks like it's time to train!", said Aiden. They went to the place Artix trained himself to become the greatest paladin he could be. After many months he grew stronger but he couldn't pass the last task. There was a stadium made for strength,agility,speed, and power. Aiden tried it for about a hundred times and finally he made it.

"Oh right, where do we get this stuff though?", said Aiden. "To my good pal Yulgar's Inn!", said Artix. They went to Yulgar's Inn. Since Artix and him were such great friends he gave the best gear to Aiden and he was ready. Aiden was doing his final test. Artix and Aiden journeyed for a long time and soon reached the green dragon's cave and he was put to his limits. Aiden was blasted to the wall several times and soon he was down. He didn't give up and he stood up and he managed to slay the dragon. There was a voice coming throughout the cave. And soon there was a shadowy figure moving towards them.........
