Introduction


The Magii used to be helpers of the human race. They worked as advisors and healers. They were the only beings that could control the mystical power of magick. Though in they rebelled. No one understood why great healers became horrible destroyers. This is the beginning of The War of the Magii.


Chapter 1


The Rebellion
It was not found out why they revolted until after. All the Magii did. They destroyed towns and cities. Great empires fell in a single blow. Many knights tried to stop this rebellion but they were destroyed. There was one account of this found from an old Magii named Kertane. He wrote of what happened:

* DAY * MONTH
All Magii have gone insane. I fear I may be next. So many people have died trying to stop this horror but it was futile.
Only a Magii is strong enough to defeat a Magii yet none of us are able to resist. There is something wrong but I fear
I may not be able to find out.

*DAY *MONTH
I have started to feel the effects. I am loosing control humans have come to irritate me so much. I fear I may loose control
and kill. I fought for justice in my life but I fear I may fight against justice.

*DAY *MONTH
I have sent word to an old friend, Yewn, he is a knight and I hope he isn't affected by this insanity. I told him that all Magii
are going insane� for he works side by side with Magii. I just don't want anything to happen.

*DAY *MONTH
I cannot stand it! I have lost control of my body. This is the last thing I can do before I kill myself. I would rather die than
harm someone if it wasn't my own doing.

*DAY *MONTH
I found the reason a parasite� or demon� it steals the mind of the Magii and infests its body. They cannot be killed I have
found who controls them though. If he falls the parasites die� the demon controlling them is�

Beyond that was illegible. The papers were burned when Kertane was possessed by the parasite.



Chapter 2


The Child

The town was ablaze and all that could be heard were people screaming. No one ever had a chance the Magii had attacked this village and they never let anything survive. Many took up arms though they were no match. Families were killed in their own homes no one was saved. There was no mercy shown that night. Though as they rode off among the rubble you could hear a faint sound, the crying of a young child. The boy, no more than 3, stood still weeping and walked through the destroyed town. Had the Magii missed him or had they spared him?

Among the bodies the child saw friends and family� his parents had been killed. The child lay down next to the body of his dead mother and cried himself to sleep. He slept there all night and was awoken because he was moving. He was on a horse he looked up to see a middle-aged man who he believed was a knight. The knight looked down at him and smiled "You are okay now child. I will take you somewhere safe. Rest now. No one deserves to go through what you went through."

The knight then stopped the horse so that the child could sit up right instead of lying across the horse. They rode across the grassy fields the child still not knowing where they were going.

�Follow.� The knight said as he brought his sword down in one smooth motion. The teen tried to mimic but the sword slipped and fell to the floor of the cave with a clanking sound.


"Concentrate. You lack focus. You will never be a knight if you do not focus!" The knight yelled

"I� I'm sorry Yewn." The teen stammered

"Just concentrate James." The knight replied. "Now again!"

The knight moved the sword in the same movement and the teen again tried to copy yet failed.

"What is wrong James?" Yewn asked

"I� I� I don't know� Something just feels weird like something is going to happen�"

"That's not what should concern you! You should pay attention!" And again they tried the same movement though this time James completed it.

"I DID IT!" James exclaimed

The knight said nothing and watched the teen dance around and a small smile crept across his face.



I'll add the more chapters as I finish them... writing 4 stories at once is hard!
