Yes I have decided to post the whole Prologue on this blog so people can get a view of what the book might be like. It's not just an excerpt its the whole prologue! Enjoy.
His head turned from side to side counting how many skeletons were closing in on him. Each skeleton armed with a sword and shield, moving closer and closer by the second. He held Twilight steady waiting for his moment to strike.
He then shouted "Marksst!" Almost as if on cue the whole area was engulfed in a pitch black sphere of energy. The young warrior charged forward holding his *Butterfly Sword Twilight in his hands. Stabbing forward at one skeleton he kicked at another on coming fiend. He thought he was ready for this fight but all of a sudden he was having doubts. Real doubts. But he never gave up.
Over seeing the fight was the Lich Craven. He looked on and smiled at his dirty work. The boy had potential. Too bad he was too lawful to ever fight on the Lich's side.
When the blackness cleared all that remained were piles of bones, shield, and swords surrounding the warrior. He was only supposed to hold the lich off until help arrived. Where is that help, he wondered. He started worrying that his help didn't survive.
NO, he thought. I will not think that way. They are stronger than that. He looked up at the lich and grinned. He then signaled the lich to come down and fight him one on one. The boy knew this was likely suicide but he had to hold him off so everyone else that he cared about could live. He was not making the same mistake twice...
The lich glided down to confront the boy face to face. Only one would be standing when this fight was over. Either the power hungry millennia old lich or this Sixteen year old warrior fighting for the good of his family and friends.
As the lich landed, he smiled and raised his hands. "Res aus melinko!" He yelled into the night. The boy heard the sound of wings flapping in the distance and realized this was not going to be a one on one fight...
