Suddenly I remember the day my adventure began. It's been months now
that as a 20-year-old squire with rumpled, fiery red hair in this huge throne room in the
Enriath Castle stood while King Enthorior sat before me on his splendid throne. He
was the great, great-great-grandson of King Enriath, who of his time had a mighty army in the south
United kingdoms so that there has been peace in our land ever since. Except for
a few skirmishes among individual princes. But who wants an ogre out of an imp
do? At least since then there has been peace on the continent, thanks to the civilized people
occupancy. And even if I have neither mother nor father (my mother died with mine
Birth, which can happen even with today's medicine, and my father, the one
was a world-famous sword master, moved out before I was born and never returned)
I had a wonderful childhood there.Granted, the time in the military academy was tough
but I made many friends there, so my youth was probably more beautiful than that of many
another.
But back to the royal hall. There he sat before me, the master of a quarter of the known world,
surrounded by his bodyguard, the highest paladins in the country between which myself myself
mine seemed 1.89 meters small. I had seen him many times before. On public
Events, such as competitions, or when he gives us young miners training in the academy
visited. Somehow he was a surrogate father for us because, for various reasons, many of them don't
Parents had more. Nevertheless, he was always an impressive figure, so proud and
dignified, and yet one saw a deep warmth and cordiality in his eyes, and in spite of it
In his still young and lively appearance, one read in them the experience of his 75-year-old
Life.
I wondered what he wanted from me. After all, he had had me called specially.I mean,
I was just a young squire, not even a knight (I once had the chance to
Knight's examination, but one of my friends had celebrated a birthday and I couldn't do that
to be missed) Okay, something was already there ... which I was told again and again when I
Was irresponsible, or made no effort, but I was sure the King was
would mention.
"Pyoritos, son of Tryor, I'm sure you're wondering why I called you here ..." 'Well, me
I've got an idea, 'shot through my head. "... I have an important assignment that only you
can do. As you know, a thousand years ago the great war raged on our planet
between heaven and hell. At that time, the people were attacked by demonic hordes, the
Cities conquered or razed to the ground and the existence of all life was threatened. To
At that time, beings winged from heaven, who called themselves angels, came to meet man in theTo stand by the fight. But none of them ever spoke a word to us. Some of them, the seraphim
or were called archangels, appeared to be their generals and possessed special powers, so
this alliance was slowly gaining the upper hand over its opponent. In many large and small
Battles, the top five being referred to as the Great Battles, and even today
still places of immense power, they were pushed further and further back to their origins. In which
great Chia'Ni mountains of the northern continent, the last, all-decisive battle occurred. It
means that weeks and months would have passed without any real success on either side. But
then a being appeared straight out of the earth that was so hideous that even our bravest
Warriors froze in fear. And all of a sudden the sun darkened and it got dark
that you could hardly see your hand in front of your eyes. In addition, the creature is said to have sheer infinite power
possessed so that a single swipe of his claw was enough to kill a legion of mendestroy. And so the enemy managed to thin the ranks of the people in a matter of seconds.
Those who were still able to do so sought their salvation in flight and only a few stayed with them
Angels back. Yet although they fought valiantly against the monsters, none was a threat to
this devil.
And when all seemed lost, only a few angels and a dozen of the strongest warriors left
were left, a ray of light broke through the clouds, so blindingly bright that even the angels were blinded
were. With this ray of light an angel appeared, dressed in beautiful armor
and had an indescribable aura. The angels, the people, the hell beings and the demon
looked at the sky and were all petrified. "Gabriel!" yelled the demon that it was over
the whole world echoed, and was just about to pounce on him when he drew a sword that
seemed to consist only of light. That it wasn't just about light quickly became clear when he didcut the demon in two with one blow. He let out another terrible scream
and was gone. The light emanating from the angel's armor gave to the survivors
Angels and people new strength and like a storm they fell upon the other monsters. With
Endowed with almost unbelievable power, the demons fell dead before them in droves. So
quickly succeeded in removing these evils from the world and saving life in our world. "
Not that I wasn't aware of this story. Every three-year-old has had it a hundred times
heard, but I think he liked hearing his voice. At least it continued. "After this
When the battle was over, the angel said to them: 'I am Gabriel, the chief general of the
Angel. To save you from the rule of the underworld, I sent my troops to you
Help. Against the will of my master ... He said you had committed enough sins to get the right
to lose existence and does not deserve our help.I was severely reprimanded for this, before
especially as Lucifer, the lord of the underworld, one of his closest servants, the one you have seen
Demon Archaron, had sent, and lost the lives of many of our angels. But when he saw how
brave you nevertheless opposed them, he gave me the greatest power that he reveal
could: This sacred armor. I should come to you to save you. Which I do now too
succeeded. ' And then he smiled. No one has ever seen any of them smile before. He went on to say that the
twelve who fought to the end, be blessed by the light of armor, and so be theirs
Descendants, up to the 111th generation, are endowed with heavenly powers. "There it was
well what I've been waiting for. Namely, I have the oh so infinite happiness that my father
descended from one of these warriors. Oh, how happy it makes me ... "Then Gabriel put down his
Armor and gave a part of it to each of the twelve, with the task of putting it in a safe placeto keep that it may help them in need. Then he disappeared with the survivors
Angels to heaven and never since then has such a being been seen on earth. "
Well, finally it was over. Five more minutes and I would have dozed off. "Well, that is
the legend. Nobody knows today whether everything is correct. It is only certain that the armor exists
and that the descendants of the warriors were indeed unusually strong. "" Yeah, "I replied
blatantly, "and that's why you want me to go on some suicide campaign now, huh?
I just have to disappoint you. Unfortunately, according to our ancestry, my father was the 111th so I am
I'll get out, right? "Well, I could have put it better because suddenly all eyes were gone
directed at me in the hall. But the king continued, "Well, the monsters have been going strong lately
increased, as you know, and our magicians have something obscure but clearly evil
anticipated. The only way to fight it, they say, is through magical armorto wear back together. " "What? And should I do that now? Are you sick? "I replied
full of anger. "Don't talk to the king like that," one of the knights yells at me. "No, I understand
their outrage. But our wizards also say that only a descendant of those heroes the
Mission can carry out. "Well, not that that convinced me, but what good would it have done
to discuss further. At some point I would be forced to agree to him. So I took that
Order quickly, not fully aware of the thought that the fate of humanity is on

like a magical compass, two "Rubik's Cubes" and an enchanted backpack in which the
Artifacts would be safe from evil influence, he assured me. The dice would match the
Connected to a compass and depending on the number thrown, it points to one of the artifacts. So
Fate decided where I went next.So I said goodbye quickly to
my friends at the academy and set out as a young squire to save the world.
