Azaerneth
"When the boy returns from a day of gathering, he finds his Town engulfed in flames, the night sky burning an ominous red, as screams and demonic blood-curdling cries fill the air. He quickly rushes over to his home, once standing now burnt to nothing but ash; his family of 4 reduced to 1.
Unable to accept the loss of not only his family but his entire town, Warren falls to his knees, defeated, as his surroundings continue to burn in flames and crumble to the ground. Bodies scattered about, blackened to near ash, his mother and father can be seen holding onto his once dear sister.
What is the boy to do, but cry into the night sky, only to be silenced out by the screams of his dying people, seeking help and wanting to escape the flames of death. Only the demons nearby hear his cries and unanimously laugh as they all race to find the child, their raid only successful after the death of all has been verified.
Hearing their cackle and howling, Warren slowly stands to his feet, his 8 year old body mustering all the strength to move onward and survive, his goal now to find the truth to the fall of The Bounds, and the sudden appearance of the Demons."
What stands against Warren and the truth to the fall of The Bounds are the Leaders of the Empire themselves; but most importantly are his connections to the sudden appearance of the Demons.
