"A mysterious person was being suspicious in the neighbor towns. No one knew them nor had seen their face. They don't cause trouble and seem to be on the search for something. They have been seen in Falun, Rayle, Stryker, Wihmston and a lot more. Please try to stay away for now till we know more"
The stranger reads in the newspaper, guess their little adventure got attention. Great. At least no one knows what they are looking for. They place the paper down at the bench they were sitting and stands up, continuing their journey. Soon the person will be there. At their first destination

The destination? The first real stop for the traveler is a forgotten place not many know of. It has been abandoned like two centuries ago. It's also hidden in the deep forest on the mountains.
A castle once home to a king who was overthrown and killed by the other kings of the time. Around the castle should also be a village no one ever dared to step foot in.

As the night began to rise und the day about to fall, our stranger was setting up a camp for the night. They collected some branches for a fire. They thrown those at the floor and sits down on a rock not far from it. With a snap of their fingers and their index finger pointing at the wood, it inflames. The traveler takes down his hood that was covering their face. Scars all over it. They had long dark brown hair with some light purple strains, which was braided. They had emerald colored eyes and long ears with earrings. The person sighed and made a book and quill appear in their hands.
"I am almost there. It took me some time to get here. To find this place. I am in the local newspaper, who knows if it's bad or good. I won't stay long anyways. I am still a good bit away and yet i can already feel the energy this place is in possession. Tomorrow i know i will be there and getting my first hint. Why did "he" have to do this so complicated? I get it though. I would have done the same."
they write and then close the book and makes it disappear once again.

The next morning, before the sun even had the chance to rise, our traveler was already on their way with their hood up again. No soul would wander here and yet they needed to be careful.
With every step they felt the energy growing. It's impressive how it is still here after being abandoned by two centuries. The owner of this place is powerful and they know that very well.

Soon the gates of the castle town are spotted by the person and they went inside. They could imagine how it looked back then. Beautiful.
But now? Everything is worn down, destroyed, in ruins or rotting. Nature is winning the fight of trying to take back its land. In the middle of the town there used to be a fountain and marketplaces. Just behind it stood another gate, this time leading to the castle that was in ruins. No one should set foot in this if they don't want to crash and yet the stranger stepped inside. Carefully placing every of their step while inspecting everything.

Hours went by and the traveler is still looking. It must be here. They can feel it. The energy of the magic was guiding them through the castle. They needed to concentrate to feel exactly where it was located.
Not long after dawn they found a hidden room. Once they entered it was like a journey through time. Everything looks like new, no damage, no rot, no nothing. So this is where the magic comes from. The person took down their hood to better inspect the room. Armor standing on both sides next to them. Weapons after weapons and all still in tact.
They look over to the desk standing against the plain wall. A chair was standing in front of the table and the traveler next to it. They place a hand on the desk and close their eyes. Yes, here it lays. Hidden behind spells to protect it.
Yet it was child's play for them to get it. They just grabbed the fin air and it appeared in their hands. A book. A book of memories and hints.
The person, satisfied by their find, sits down in the chair and puts the book on the table.

They open the book to read it. They needed answers. Answers to too many questions. On the first page was written:
"Hello. I know why you have this book. You need answers and i might be able to give those to you. But first, how was your journey here? It's not like both of us care but well. It's nice meeting you again. It's been some time. Yes, i know who you are. I know alot. And this book is the only thing i can share these things with. This book contains my life and in the end will reveal my location. I know that is what you want. And i know that you will find me. Yet I do not want that you find me. But who am I, Samuel Renire, to change fate, right? Let's now begin with my story. Pay attention"
This was the beginning of everything. The stranger turned the page and starts reliving the life of the person named Samuel Renire.

This is basically the intro to the story. I dont know how much I will write, probably not much since it's gonna be long and I know I will be losing motivation soon.

Have a nice day/night :^)
