Visiting the Wizard (Private to Sam)

MORLOCK J. VON ACHARD



I was reading a book on shadow spells, I haveve never been good with Shadow Magic, but I have been good with fire, frost, and arcane spells. I heard a knock at the door. Inconvienient. Of course I was not decent, shirtless and all, but I could not care less. I slung my sword up and I let it rest on my shoulder. I walked to the door and opened it, revealing the princess.Now I regret not being decent. My eyes popped open as she knocked on my door. I gave a small bow.
"Your highness! Ah, sorry for this, I will go make myself decent. May I ask, what is the reason for such a nice and humble visit?" I asked as I opened the door to let her in.

"Of course... ah," I said, looking around, no clothing. Damn. Ok ok... Beginners books. I stuck my sword in the ground next to my table. I had stacks of books everywhere. I looked through my library and brought out, Arcane Magic: For Dummies. I set the book down on the table and put on my glasses. I pat the seat next to me and looked down, not feeling worthy to make eye contact with a princess.
"Come. Sit," I said, as I flipped through the book and read my won book at the same time.

Ah... I felt foolish. I pointed to a line in the book to making a simple arcane bolt. I explained how it worked, and how to gain control of your energy.
"Ah... well... it's like this," I said, this was the first spell I learned, so it was very easy to use. I made a small amount of energy appear in my hand, making a small orb, then I looked at a target I used for spells like these. I made a small thrusting motion, and the next second, the bolt struck the target, making a small explosion. Hehe. That spell brought back memories. I looked at the princess, and started at her for a little. I turned away.
"Ah... sorry," I said, quite embarrassed.

I heard a knock on the door. "Excuse me for a second," I walked to the door and opened it. Turriant? He had a dark look in his eyes and he handed me a document before walking away, limping in fact. I looked at the document, we asked for a settlement since father died and... they killed my sister becuase of it.
"Damn the Royal Family!" I said in complete and utter rage. I ripped the document in half before walking off to my armory, grabbing my sword, and my cloak. I'm getting some answers.

"You think you can control me just because you are higher in social status? Nay," I said before simply wisking my hand, cuasing a wind to knock her back. I am a wizard, they have no control over me. I walked out of the tower and jumped on one of my horses. I put on my hood and galloped towards the royal castle.
