The Son of Zell: Prologue

A stormy night filled the sky. It was raining hard, and a strange dark figure walked across the plain land. She was walking with pace and she was carrying something. The figure came to halt, she stopped in front of a cottage with a large lighthouse behind it. She put down whatever she was carrying on the door step, which was a baby, a baby boy.

“Dear Kaius, it will have to be this way, there will be no other choice, he must not know, I’m sorry. But this is not goodbye, we will meet again”, she said in very sad voice.

She knocked on the door and sprinted away from there as fast as she could. The door slowly opened, to reveal Matron, also know as Edea. She was a beautiful older woman in her mid-forties. Her long, black hair stopped at her waist and her warm brown eyes. She was also a Sorceress. Thirteen years earlier, she was possessed by another Sorceress from the future, named Ultimecia. Edea was forced to fight the children she raised as her own from her orphanage. Edea looked down and to her amazement, she saw a cute baby boy.

There was a tag on the baby’s neck, it read: His name is Kaius. “Ok then Kaius, come on in,” Matron said in a happy voice. She picked him up and took him in. Matron made him a bottle of milk and fed him. As soon as he was done eating he fell asleep. “Don’t worry, I’ll look after you, don’t worry about a thing.” She turned off the lights, went to bed and fell asleep.
