Chapter II-
A New Name and New Home
The captain motioned for him to read the note. Figreid cleared his throat. "This is the son of the infamous Iban, son of Zamorack. His castle was attacked and his soldiers killed, along with his own life ending at the face of battle. His son, named Riku, has been left with no choice but to be raised in this castle under Zamorack principles and up-bringing. Riku may hold the fate to win this war, keep him sa... keep him sa... the rest is unreadable." The captain nodded and waved him away. He picked up the baby and started to walk in when a dark figure approached him.
"What is that?" The dark figure continued to approach the captain. "Oh, Lord Hyro! Sir this is Riku, son of Lord Iban, we just received news he was killed in battle and his castle is under siege." Hyro looked at him and nodded. "This isn't good, captain get back inside the castle and warn the others that an attack might be on the horizon."
An arrow struck the wooden gate and made a sound that broke the silence of the castle. Hyro turned to the darkness and shook his head. "Idiots." He unsheathed a black 'demon' sword. "Everyone on guard!" He withdrew into the castle and a loud war cry came like a wave out of the darkness, shattering the low morale of the castle. Hundreds of white spots were now visible in the darkness running towards the castle. Giant fireballs flew out of the darkness from hidden spots, hitting the castle walls and gates, destroying the stone walls and opening the castle for attack.
The White Knights ran towards the castle and entered screaming, prepared for battle. The Black Knights, some still getting on their armor, died gruesomely under the horrors of war. Hyro was in the castle courtyard, twelve bodies lay around him dead, stabbed and slashed in different ways and places. He looked towards the approaching army and smirked. His eyes flashed red, revealing his demon bloodlust. He jumped forward and began attacking them one by one.
