"Sorry about the incident boy, I would have helped. Cole updated me on the situation when I entered. I was visiting my daughter in Leo about 2 days ago and I just got back." "Its fine, master Jayce. I know how you care for your daughter. How is she?" I asked, ignoring the incident from before as if it never happened. "She is doing fine, your majesty. Thanks for asking." I walk to the center of the room. "Sit down boy, this is a long lesson." I sit in the slightly bloodstained floor from my battle before. My black cape gets kind of bloody. "Whats it about?" "The elements, boy! The powers beneath Paiges soil. For starters, I should tell you what they are." He points to a board I didn't notice before. "Look here." I look at the board and see a list.

1.Light the embody of Grace
2.Dark the embody of Sin
3.Fire the embody of Rage
4.Water the embody of Sadness
5.Earth the embody of Pride
6.Wind the embody of Joy

"But Jayce, I already learned this." "Oh..." He says awkwardly, scratching the back of his head with his hand. "Then you don't have a lesson... just a final." I got up off the ground in distress. "A final! I thought that was when I turned 17!" "Well, sorry. You passed the lessons too fast. Pull out your Pierca." I had to fight him?! This is crazy, but I wasn't about to back down. I pull out my soul weapon, the spear. Pierca to be exact. Every class is linked with a soul weapon. I go into stance, bending my knees as he pulls out his axe. Wait... axe. Where have I- "Ready boy!" I... I won't let you cause my fathers death! This ends now. "Ready!" I struck him as fast as I could before he could get the first swing. I am much better with a spear than a sword, so now I have the advantage. He collapses to the ground, for my conclusion came in the swift. "Erk! What was that for boy, no need to go all out! I mean-" Before he could finish talking I go in for the second and final blow. I go to peirce his heart when- #Cling# He stops my attack and then grabs my Pierca, brakes it, and throws it across the room. "Boy! Stop!!! Too much. When I say final I mean final exam, not breath!" No... I was wrong. Jayce wouldn't do that in a million years. I realize my error, he worked for my father as a berzerker and he's working for me as a gladiator. He's worked in my family for generations. He's a veteran and a family man. I should have known better. "Jayce... I'm sorry. Let me aid you." I wrap some cloth around his waist where I peirced him. "Why boy? Did killing that innocent change you?" "Jayce, I had a dream last night that seamed so real, so true. I couldn't believe it. It said that to beware the shadow of the black axe... I'm sorry." "You didn't try to kill me because it only said that. I know that for sure!" We got up simultaneously, "Your right... The dream also predicted my fathers death to be one day from now. Also that his death will cause an omen that kills all three kingdoms. After I heard about the Coppers at our border and the crazy citizen attacks, I thought it was more than a dream." "I see..." He merely walked off into the main hall, without confirming the Copperblaze attack. What if it is true... What if befallment came on the morrow? I- I couldn't handle that. I wanted to see father... I missed him. He is always so busy and I barely even see him normally... I've talked and spent more time with Cecil than I have my father. I needed more time to think about this so I told Cecil, who was in charge currently, that I was going to turn in early. I then went to bed, hoping to think of something. So I had my own little history lesson to remember why king Paul was fueding in the first place, so I made a timeline on a slate.

1. The continent Paige was born from nothing.
2. With it 1 man, Lord Haoss. Our creator.
3. He gave life to 6 statues and treated them like family.
4. There names were Aden, Gor, Zylemor, Berna, Kain, and Grave.
5. These statues were given wings from Lord Haoss.
6. These 7 pepal (Our species name) were known as the ancients.
7. Then, 100 years later the 3 kings were created.
8. The 3 kings, the first official pepal, built a tower.
9. It was built in the middle of Paige without perpose or name.
10. The 3 kings were given emeralds and the land as gift for building the tower for Lord Haoss.
11. The land was divided equally among them, and Haoss was pleased.
12. They all got gifts from lord Haoss. Emotions, the gifts were.
13. They couldn't handle it all on there own, and it almost destroyed them.
14. So lord Haoss weakend it by spreading it all over Paige, deluding its strength but not obliterating it.
15. They later changed form to become the elements, the powers that almost every Pepal can use.
16. This started a fued for land to get the power of the elements.
17. James started the attacks on Isaiah to gain land.
18. Paul followed after.
19. Isaiah (My father) enforced the law and ended it with the power of Soul Sanctuary and the Ancients blessing.
20. They now stayed at home and built thier own kingdoms in peace.
21. Soul Sanctuary started to act funny, spawning Pepal at random intervals, choosing thier own kings to follow.
22. To form a truce the kings combined the emeralds, trying to ensure the peace.
23. They placed it atop the tower in the middle of Paige, after giving name to the tower.
24. Equalibarium Tower was that name, and Soul Sactuary was its first floor.
25. This amulet of the 3 emeralds was now a monument of peace.
26. Later the kings each begot 3 children.
27. Isahia (Me!), Jaysia, and Paull.
28. Each named after thier fathers.
29. Now, apperently king Paul has broke the seal and surprise attacked steelwater with his copperblaze soldiers.
30. My father has left to visit king James. I don't know why.

Before I could revise what I wrote I passed out on the bed, using the slate I wrote on as a pillow, even though it was only about halfway through the day. Todays events must have really messed me up.
