The Forbidden Plains: Chapter Two:Part 2

"Galendal the True"

The Next Sun , 8th day of the first era.

I woke up in Leranna's humble shack once again, all patched up in the stomach area, but this time it did hurt when I moved, I placed myself in a sitting position and I could barely breathe properly without wanting to mourn, I had the same nightmare, but this time I saw Leranna die in my hands, I remember her moving her lips but no sound coming out of her what so ever, her eyes where empty with pain it felt so vivid, I could feel myself holding her dying body. Where is Leranna anyways, I bet she's either at her kitchen or the training yard, but I can barely sit, how could I ever stand without this wound tumbling my legs.

Last day, that was some horrid battle we had, I wonder what Leranna thinks of her so-called "Prophet" I'm just a joke now, getting myself in the line of fire to best the odds, idiotic at the thought.

I hear the door rattled and I saw that Leranna arrived, guess she was in the training yard after all, but whats this? she came with a tall stranger with a pointed hat. suddenly I felt the hostile urge to stand just to at least make up a strong figure, so I stood just waiting for them to notice me, Leranna stares at me, and then gives out a smile at my direction, I felt confused, was she smiling because I did wake or is she mocking my helpless state. The guest took a turn to where the hangers where and took his coat and pointed hat off, I recognize that man,about ten feet, red long hair, young and of average body. Galendal I guess he's name is, he's an apothecary, or was one, he used to come to the old village to sell his potions, tonics and perfumes, but one day he just vanished, its been a year or so since I last saw him.

Leranna enters the room where i was and told me to stand still and raise my arms up, she started touching smoothly where my wound was, and then she suddenly stopped and gave me a pat in the center of the wound.

-"HEY, OUCH! THAT... hurts you know." I shouted.

-"Then its healing well and fast, as expected." Leranna says with a grin.

-"You're too proud of yourself. Anyways, who's the man on the living area? does his name happens to be Galendal?" I already knew who he was, I just wanted him to notice me asking.

-"Yes, he is Galen..."

-"Indeed, Galendal the True, at your service young apprentice." He said cutting away Leranna's presentation, he didn't seem to remember me though.

-"Yes, Galendal, don't you remembe me? Jaeson? Jaeson of Koncör?"

-"Oh my, why yes, ofcourse i remember you, you're the Blacksmith's foster child are you not, my, my, look at how grown you are boy!" Galendal said while laughing at the nostalgic moment.

-"So you guys know eachother already, good! saves me the non-having time, go on Jaeson, get dressed, meet back with us in the training yard, don't hessitate."

-"But I haven't even eaten yet, and im starving!" My stomach starts to rumble at my advantage.

-"Well fine then, there is some cabbage stew in the kitchen's window stall, just swallow the thing and hurry up, time is of an essence we barely have!" She was trying too hard not to get mad, but her expression was obvious. 

As Leranna and Galendal left the hut, I dashed my way to the kitchen to find my serving of cabbage stew, I wasn't a big lover of cabbage or ground raised food, but my body was just asking for supplements, I ate as fast as I could, almost gagging it all down, then I went to get dressed, and there, atop of the night table I saw the robe I used last day and picked it up just to find the whole, the size of an average fist, the fabric near the hole was still frozen with the arcane spell.
