********************************************
3 weeks have passed since that day, lot of things have happened. Lots of things have changed in my life. Right now I’m moving through a deep forest east of Zuma, known as Akan Forrest. Miss Aby & her team took me under their wing, I was to follow them to their destination & then they will see what to do next. Frankly I was a little surprised when they told me to join them or rather Javel picked me up & ordered me to do so. Let me tell you, up-close he’s very scary...so I joined their expedition. Ever since that day Miss Aby would nag me & hit me on my head for no reason what so ever. I think that being pretty gives her some kind of right to hit me...*smack*...what??
Aby: “Come with me, boy.”
Me: “Why? Where?” *smack*
Aby: “Don’t ask unnecessary questions & quietly follow me.”
Me (rubbing my left hand on my head): “Yes Miss Aby...”
Lot of things happened after Elder died. I was bombarded with questions like “What were you thinking?” “From where did you get that weapon?” “How did you move so fast?” “What are you?” “What Rank are you?”....I mean so many questions...my head was spinning.
Finally getting cleaned from all that blood, I felt quite nice or peace whichever sounds good. I saw my reflection on the mirror. I was at a loss...I look completely different from any Zumas I have seen or met. I have a red slit pupil on white eyes, two short horns with black tip, light red body complexion with black streaks on my shoulder. I was also close to 5’8-9 ft tall. What is this appearance? Only one way to find out “Status”.

After cleaning up, I went to the Council hall to listen to the will Elder left me...of course my new guardians came with me as well...they said that they were just going to talk with Councilwoman Je’Lec about my situation but I know better...they want to know what how much fortune did Elder left me with... *smack* ahhh...
Me: “What?”
Aby: “You were thinking something bad about us...weren’t you??” small grin forming in the corner of her slender lips.
Me: “No...No...Absolutely not...how could I!?”I smiled innocently at her.
Aby: “Remember Boy...you are still inexperienced...everything you think or do will be known to us instantly...be careful...this forest is pretty dense...” her grin got mixed with her sharp eyes turning into one hell of a scary face.
Me: “Yes...I understand...Miss Aby.” looking down towards the earth.
Aby: “Now hurry up; we don’t have a lot of time.”
Upon reaching the Council hall, I met the Councilwoman, talked to her for a little bit. She was quiet shocked to see me...well everyone was so no big deal. Then handed me a paper & told me to sign it. It was Elder’s will. After reading & signing it she handed me a small triangular crystal, black in colour. She told me to drop some blood on a part of the crystal. I did what she told me, a screen came appeared.

Scholar of the Fog
Leaving a trail of blood as he climbed up a hill, his limbs felt like lead. He was gasping too, his lungs burning with every step he took. It felt like a bundle of broken glass was scraping away the inner walls of his flesh. He was dying, obvious to both him and his pursuers. And it would not be long till he dropped dead as he bled away. If not, the people chasing him would surely finished what they had came for. It was as if the Gods themselves had already predestined his fate. He took one step forward and stood at the peak of the hill. He let his legs rest as he could barely go on. Heaving deep breaths, he could hear sneering voices and shouts behind him. They were close, and the grim realization stoked the embers of his most primal fear. He did not want to die. He had dreams, like any other youth. There was glory to be had in this world. He wanted to learn more of life, and lived through its motions. He wanted to live. He swept his gaze, and across him was a spanning forest of old. With a glint in his eyes, and jaws clenched, he decided to gamble with all he had. He was dying, and by now, it did not matter where his grave was. He ran down the hill, and stopped where the plains and the forest met. His eyes swept about the trees, and he could feel an instinctual urge to drag himself away. He knew what this forest was, and here, he would find his salvation. Or his doom. The voices behind him grew closer, and among the noise was the faint clanging of steel. Gritting his teeth, he ousted all the will he had from the depths of his soul and stepped forth into the forest. Damned he be by the Gods if they wanted him dead. -new synopsis 10/6/2016 ---------- A new chapter would be released every friday. And the quality of writing should improve each time, hopefully. Another important thing to mention is how the story as of now, is only a bedrock for a massive world if it ever gets there. (CH18) And if possible, reviews are very much appreciated. ---------- For the ones who are interested in the old synopsis: With one foot in the grave, he ran away for that little bit of hope. Exhausted and bleeding, it was only a matter of time until he passed out. By then, his fate would be sealed and he would be no more. Thus, he had to make a decision that might just save his life. It was a gamble, he knew, but he had no He ran into the forbidden forest where no man had ever come back. He headed within, intending to scare his pursuers away. But they persisted in their chase, hounding him down until he was forced to take a step of no return. There, in the darkest depths of the forest, was the ghastly fog and behind him where men who wanted his head. Left with nothing else, he stepped forth and crossed the boundary of the living and the dead. Henceforth, his fate was forever changed. No longer just a scholar, but something more…
