ooc: if you don't read the ic part at least read this so you know what's going on thank you.
background: Hornthraw Castle, one of the most feared monuments of Acunim(one of the many planet located in the realm of Daron). Hornthraw was once a stationary castle used as the home for the rulers of Palerium(the largest continent of Acunim). However it was soon taken over by a powerful force known as Arberous, a demon from another realm. When he took it over the previous rulers disappeared mysteriously, and the castle grew hidious limbs, and became monsterous. It tramples across the land where ever it's master pleases.
After observing this act of evil for over one hundred years, the high council of the realms decided it was time to take action, and send someone in before this evil debunked the flow of time and space.
They sent the Goddess Mirravin to guide those opposing this evil to victory. After several more years of failed attempts, Mirravin leaves them to fight the force on their own to go ask the council for more help.
Mirravin comes back later with the news that there is one final hope for the people of Palerium, an heir to the throne of Hornthraw. She goes to find this heir, leaving one of her closest friend with the promise of her return. You start the story in a bar where you witness an attempted mugging. You watch as he struggles to fight them off, and you wonder if maybe you should help him.

arlos roars with anger and slams his fist into the table in front of him, making a pile of small soldiers figures fly off from their resting places and onto the floor below.
"D#$#! I've lost half of our forces just trying to get close to that floating wretch of a contraption! Now I'm being forced to get rid of one of my best war general, and for what? A boy that might not even exist? You have got to be kidding me!" He growled at a woman's slim silhouette sitting just far enough in the shadows that all that could be made out was her outline.
"Oh, you know I get restless when I stay one one place for too long. Besides, I already know what I'm looking for. You just let me go already, and I'll be out of your hair.
Plus I really don't think I can spend any more time hiding under ground like a sightless rat. I promise, I'm just going to go take care of things and be right back." A soft, lush sing song voice called from the shadows.
"You are the only thing standing between Hornthraw and us and you expect me to just let you go again? Don't you understand? Arberous fears you. If we don't have that fear we're done with." Darlos almost pleaded with her.
There was a long exasperated sigh from beneath the shadows.
"I really don't want to leave you on bad terms my good friend. I can't stay here to say the lest. Once the council gives an order that's what I have to do. You see, I'm not really asking you for your permission really, I kinda just didn't want to leave and not tell you. I don't want you to hate me for this." the female voice protruded from the shadows.
"fine, you just better make sure you don't take long. I need you back here pronto understand." Even as he said it he knew she was already gone.
Meanwhile, at one of the few taverns still on ground level a young man sat at a round table in the middle of the room absantmindedly sipping on a keg of al.
His shaggy brown hair matches his twinkling brown eyes perfectly, and they seem a bit empty sitting over a chin hidden by such a large mug. A dark crimson red scarf like cape hangs loosly around his shoulders, neck, and silver armor that covers the whole of his body.
As he sits there seemingly clueless a group of men burst into the tavern and charge after him.
" we have some busnuss to settle with you Adam! Stand up and take your beating like a man." The leader of the group yells at him.
"I don't have any with you. Like I told you before it's a free country I don't have to pay you to cross your territory if I don't want to. Leave me be and quite making such fools of yourselves." The man failed to even look up at the man behind him.
"Why you!" the man behind him growled in outrage and took a swing at him. Adam caught his fist in mid blow and shoved the man aside causing him to topple over one of his fellow groupies and crash into a table.
"Don't just stand there get him!" The man screams at his underlings from his place on the floor. They obediantly close in on the young man and it looks as if he's in for a really bad beating.
