Like the title says, this may get confusing...unless you've been in the roleplays long enough.

To my fellow roleplayers: Sorry if my memory is slightly foggy.

There once was a man and a woman who soon became deeply in love. Though there was a slight problem for they were Greencloaks.

'How is that a problem?' You may be wondering.

It may affect their duties. Stuff happened... stuff that I cannot even imagine, and the problem grew worse.

(A/N: Ohmegherd XD)

They had a son. They didn't regret having him, of course, for they loved him. But with their duties, how could they possibly find the time to take care of him?

The solution? They gave him away to their closest friends.

They loved being Greencloaks but they felt as if it was time for them to settle down. So they decided to do one last quest. And of course, that's when everything went wrong.

Conquerors ambushed them, the mother died and the father...well, he disappeared but everyone presumed he was dead.

And he left his son. Griffin.

And here I am now... Confused.

- - -

I don't know how I got here. The events of earlier were blurry.

All I know is that i'm a messenger and spy for the Redcloaks and Greencloaks and am currently trying to find Olvan's office.

I past a male Greencloak and nodded in greeting which he returned.

"Hey, do you know where Olvan's office is?" I asked the Greencloak, "It's been a while since I came here..."

"Not really, i'm actually new here," the guy said before walking away.

"Okay then," I mumbled to myself.

I see someone, a girl with blonde hair walking past, a black panther by her side. She looked a bit...nervous?

I did not plan on wandering these hallways any longer. The sooner i'm out of here, the better

"Um, excuse me, do you know where Olvan's office is?

She froze before turning around and stammering, "W-Well actually y-yes I w-was heading t-there now."

"Mind if I join you then? I really need to get there."

"S-Sure, why not?"

"Thanks," I heard a crash and I saw another Greencloak running into a door nearby.

I start following her as we walked through the hallways.

"So...how long have you been in Greenhaven as a Greencloak?" I asked her.

"Umm, well actually about a year maybe? Close to a y-year anyway," she replied brightly.

"You must enjoy being a Greencloak then," I smiled at her but really, I was hiding the bitterness I felt about the Greencloaks.

"Oh I forgot," I mentally face-palmed, "I'm Griff, what's your name?"

"Ashley!" She responded.

I've been having weird dreams lately and for some reason, they seemed real. But every dream I have, the memory always seems to fade away.

Well, it wouldn't matter now since i'm stuck in this cell for who knows how long.

"Okay, which direction do you guys think we should take?" I heard a voice as I sighed, slumped against the wall.

"Do you hear that?" A different voice asked.

"Yeah, someone just sighed," the first voice said.

"Umm," the voice seemed louder, "Are you okay?"

For the first time, I laughed as if it had been the first time i've been using my voice for years, "Stuck in this cell for who knows how long and you're asking me if i'm alright?"

"Who's there?" The first person demanded.

"Nobody important," I replied, still not raising my head.

"Okay then 'nobody important' do you want to get out of here?" I finally raised my head to see two girls, Greencloaks from the cloak they were wearing, "More importantly, why are you in here, 'nobody important'?"

"If I were important, i'd be out of this cell by now, but," I shrugged, "I'm forgotten."

"Well do you want to get out?" The same girl asked.

"And what happens when you get out? You're Greencloaks, aren't you? I've seen their army and a few Greencloaks can't stop them."

"Yeah but we can try," the girl argued, "We can escape or just die like an idiot."

"You do realize that she kinda has a point, right?" Her voice sounded familiar but I shrugged the thought off.

"I tried before... they," I hesitated, "And I lost my best friend. It would be suicide to face a large army."

"Would you rather die or escape?" The girl snapped.

I sighed, "What are you planning to do?"

"Improvising and punching people," the girl said, "At least, that's my plan."

"Luna, can we please go and find Sage?" The girl said and I could tell she was getting impatient.

"Well?" The girl named Luna, snapped, "Dying or escaping?"

"I choose the second option," I answered, "I'll die either way."

"Alright, hold on a second," a wild cat, probably her Spirit Animal, started opening the lock to my cell.

We reached the end of the hallway and in front of us was a large wooden door.

"Well, here it is," Ashley told me.

"Thanks," I replied, my hand going into my leather bag where I felt the scroll.

Ashley knocked on the door and I hears a deep voice coming from the inside, "Come in."

We opened the door and walked into Olvan's room. He was seated behind the desk, looking through some papers.

"Ah, Ashley, what brings you here?" He asked then Olvan's gaze went to mines, "Oh and Griff, been a while has it?"

Ashley gestured for me to go first but I shook my head.

"Well, it's just that it's been a while since there's been training and you usually have us train everyday, at least once," Ashley said, "Is something going on?"

Something was going on. Something big and only then did I remember the message I was supposed to send.

Olvan's smile wavered and he glanced at me, "I...perhaps we should hear the news from Griff."

"It's alright," she promised softly, "I can keep a secret."

"I bring news from your...allies, sir," I started, choosing my words carefully, "There's been rumors of a new rebel group called X." No wait, that's not right. "If you ask me, it's no different from the Conquerors but..." What am I saying?

I struggle to say the next words but something inside of me was fighting back. That...may sound a little confusing but i'm confused myself.

Olvan nodded for me to continue, "Go on."

I then managed to say, "They have a Great Beast on their side sir."

Olvan looked alarmed yet confused at the same time, "Which Great Beast? Kovo? Gerathon?

I shook my head, "We aren't sure yet. But one of the Re- spies heard a deep voice speaking. They said it radiates power, most likely coming from a Great Beast."

"Perhaps..." Ashley suddenly spoke and I almost forgot she was there.

"Maybe...it wasn't speaking with a hiss, correct?"

Yes. "No."

"Was it a deep rumble?"

"I can't..." I was about to say 'I can't remember' when my words suddenly changed, "I mean, I-I wasn't there. That's all the spy said before he...died."

"Must be a dangerous job then."

"Yes...dangerous..."

I'm lying. I know I am but I don't even remember this happening.

Ashley was looking at me, studying me.

"We need a quest."
