Wow, great story! Very descrpiptive! The part I love is that it is very descriptive but yet the sentences are not littered with useless words. I wonder who that man is....

"Well, nice to meet you." The man bowed like a gentleman to the children. Magenta looked at him as though he was the savior of the planet, but the boy sustained a dull expression. This man seemed suspicious.
"It's very nice to meet you, Sir!" blurted out Magenta as she approached the man with open arms in the gesture of a hug. "Thank you ever so much for saving us! I don’t know how we can ever repay you." She managed to make contact by embracing him at the chest with a hug as that was as tall as she was to him. Her friend, the boy, continued to be slightly suspicious of this new fellow and kept his distance while observing him. The man patted Magenta on her head and gently dislodged her from her hold on him.
"It's only the proper thing to do. A couple kids getting attacked by a small raid of goblins? What else could I think of doing other than incinerating the whole lot of 'em?" spoke the man in a calm tone. He tilted his head down to sigh then slowly brought it back up just enough to look at the boy sitting a little ways away. For a moment their eyes locked, but the boy quickly broke the stare and turned his head to the left. "Well who might you be, young boy?"
Magenta moved back into his line of sight. "That would be my new friend. He doesn't have a name but he's got really good skills in magic. You should see what he can do. Oh yeah! My name's Magenta. I guess I had forgotten to tell you before." She was acknowledged by the man with a smile and a nod of his head.
The man proceeded to get closer to the boy, but he was stopped abruptly by Daskal as the feline quickly dove into his path. Daskal started to hiss as the fur along his spine began to rise up. The elder man bent down and ran his hand over Daskal’s back in an attempt to calm down the now vicious cat. It was not long before the cat gave in to the kind action towards him and let out a purr.
"So, you don't have a name, boy?"
"As I recall you haven't given a name either."

"That's right isn't it? Ahh, well, I guess I'll introduce myself now then." The man rose back up and straightened out his cloak with a nice patting down. "You've more or less never heard of me, but I'm known as Tash, the future ruler of this world." His deep, powerful tone made it sound like he was very proud of himself.
"Future ruler of this world?" asked the boy who was baffled as to whether this man called Tash was speaking the truth or not. "Are you royalty or something? 'Cause I don't think I've ever heard of a world ruler, plus you don't really look like royalty."
"Silly child," mocked Tash, "I said the future ruler. Meaning that in time I will enslave this realm and hold it for my own pleasures. As for how I'll accomplish that, you already know the method."
The boy had been thrown for a loop. He already knew the method? What could that possibly mean? He had never tried to take over the world. What kind of madness was this man telling?
Magenta stepped into the conversation. "You're just joking, right Sir?" She was standing to the left of the man with a now saddened facial expression. "I mean you can't really be serious about taking over the world...can you?"
Tash smiled and extended an arm to reach to her. "Of course I can be serious," he said as he ran his palm over the top of her head. "And if your friend hasn't figured it out yet, I intend to accomplish it with these." He placed his hand into his satchel and retrieved a number of runes.
The boy felt like a rock just hit him. Of course it was the runes! What else could be powerful enough to enable a single person the dream to control an entire realm? With their still unknown powers and potentials, if this man could master them he could easily find away to enslave all of mankind.
