The prince stood there waiting for the rich man to attack. The slave had already started to run towards Draco by the end of Dethearth's speech. The rich man backed into his caravan and started to ride away to his town. Dethearth was close by him, but remained unseen by him. As he made his to his town Dethearth read a big sign "WELCOME ALL TO THE TOWN OF CHANDEL" read the sign. In early studies with his father, his father had told him of this land. He told him how it was ravaged by bandits and filled with angry souls. He said you could smell the anger in the town and you could almost taste the fear of those who enter. Dethearth, still following the rich man, made his way to the castle where the rich man had been traveling. Dethearth had arrived there a few moments earlier than the rich man. And as the rich man made his way to the castle Dethearth heard something that he never thought he would hear. It was not to him but to the rich man he had heard it over and over.

"Make way for the prince! Make way for the prince!" said the townsfolk.

As the prince arrived at the castle he ordered his guards to attack Dethearth. Dethearth had thrown the guards away easily and unharmed. Afterwards he transformed into his human form to announce something to the town.

"People of Chandel, I am the prince of Draco. I stand before you to announce something that you may never see or know about. Your prince has declined a duel. He is a coward. He was punishing his slave for running away. I come before you now to stop his tyranny. My father used to tell me stories about this town. And now i come to set you all free. But, for those who resist becoming free and continue to spread evil, I will kill you where you stand. I am not here to shed blood. I am here to undo what has already been done. Evil monsters surround you all whether you know it now or not. Your evil deeds could possibly enhance the monsters power greatly. Our fight is not with each other anymore, our fight is with the monsters that are trying to take over our lands. Join me and let your life be spared. Join me and help me reclaim our land." Said Dethearth.

As he finished his speech the townsfolk had started to bow for him. The knights guarding the castle had bowed for him as well. The king had come out to see what was happening. He saw that his people were bowing for a prince that was not of that town.

"You bow before a man who is not from this town? I have heard stories as of late about a man who would come to save the human race. I would not have guess it to be my old friend's son. I bow to you as well for the road to come will be difficult. You will need all the allies you can. Make amends with your father and restore our friendship and make good what evil has been done here you are the true ruler of this world now my friend." As the king had said this he got down on his knee and bowed.

"My friends you bow for no one. You are free you can be your own ruler. I know that I may not be as noble as your king but I am only here to make the evil disappear. Stand before me and reclaim your old lives. Go now with a swiftness that is unheard of and tell your friends in other towns to dawn the old armour and wield their old sword and shield. Tell them there is a war that will cover this land. Tell them to end their evil ways and spread good into the hearts of those that are evil. Tell them also to spread the word around." said Dethearth.
