A new job
15th Rhaan 994
It's been nearly seven months to the day, since the day of Mourning. Seven months, and finally the first of the expeditions have been prepared for. I shall journey to Metrol, once the capital of Cyre. My journey is long, I shall take the lightning rail to Sharn, from Wroat, my current station. Then from Sharn, I travel by sea to Trolanport, where I shall meet with the other members of this expedition, of which there are ten.
I know nothing, so far, about them other than their names and races, which are as follows:
Hisni Felhim Jorkur Lokas - Gnome
Clifton Wheatflow - Human
Amelia Warmaw - Half-Orc
Earthbreaker - Goliath
Enndolynn Ashglade - Half-Elf
Thori Steelarm - Dwarf
Dwali Steelarm - Dwarf
Alys Cleves - Human
Perin Gerop - Halfling
Merey Hornblower - Halfling
After we have all met up, we shall sail to Pylas Maradal, then ride to Taer Valestas, before making the long ride to Gatherhold through the blade desert. There has been much discussion on whether we should take the lightning rail to Metrol. I say it's too dangerous, that there would be too much unknown to us on that journey, but the majority of the others wish to arrive and leave as soon as possible, and even I can't deny that I don't want to spend more time in that cursed place than we have to.
Anyway, I have to prepare myself. The journey is long, and I haven’t been at sea for decades. I’m looking forward to it.
Find familiar
17th Therendor 877
(Draft, needs refinement)
Iraeon spends the next few years learning everything he can. One day the class is about familiars, and eventually the class turns to summoning them. Iraeon is picked because he is the best academic student.
As soon as he summons the familiar, he notices the same owl as in the forest, and hears "Hello brother." He breaks down crying in the middle of class, no one understands why, up until this moment they had seen Iraeon as an emotionless vessel of knowledge. He hugs the owl and then from then on, the two are once again inseperable.
The magician
4th Vult 874
(Draft, needs refinement)
A year passes, with Lydia leaving Iraeon after spending months trying to get him to open up. A little into Olarune of that year and Iraeon is walking the streets of Sharn, and spots a street magician performing magic. He's disinterested at first, but then the street magician calls him over and Iraeon goes with it. The magician asks Iraeon to picture in his mind the person he loves more than anything. Iraeon pictures Aeren, and is shocked when the magician conjures a perfect replica of her.
Iraeon can't get this memory out of his mind, he asks his mother to allow him to travel Khorvaire and study magic. She allows him, she hasn't seen Iraeon this adamant about anything since the accident, maybe even ever.
Waking up
4th Lharvion 873
(Draft, needs refinement)
He wakes up 2 weeks later in his bed at home in sharn, his mother watching over him. They share a look and Iraeon asks what happened, and where's Aeren. His mother hugs him, and explains what happened. In the days after, Iraeon would lock himself away in his room, nothing could pull him out of his complete lack of love for life. Not his family, friends, or even Lydia, his girlfriend of 7 years.
The forest
18th Nymm 873
(Rough draft, needs refinement.)
One day Iraeon and Aeren are skipping school, Iraeons idea, he'd do it often. He wasn't enamored by the idea of learning, he just wanted to have fun. Aeren was top of every class, there was nothing she couldn't do, but her brother had worn her down and she went along with it, she's ahead on every subject, what harm can taking one day do?
A few hours later, the twins are enjoying the fresh air and some sun, when they hear a sudden screech a little ways away. They both had a deep love for birds, and recognised the sound as an owl in distress, and headed towards it. They came across a group of 5 poachers hunting in the woods, and an owl on the ground, hooting softly and covered in blood.
Aeren was livid, she flew into the angriest rage Iraeon had ever seen her get, she had a temper, she'd alway had a deep fire in her, but this was something Iraeon had never seen. She points at one of the men and he instantly lights on fire, the crackling sound and smell of burning flesh radiates the air, and she turns her gaze to the second, he goes up in flame too, she turns her gaze to the other 3, each in turn and one by one each alight. She collapses on the ground as Iraeon rushes over to the owl, seeing if he could do anything, but it was too late.
As Iraeon picks the owl up and pulls it into it's final embrace, he looks over to Aeren who's shuddering on the ground. She looks up at Iraeon and says "I'm so cold brother." Then Iraeon watches in horror as she alights in flame, her scream piercing his heart. Iraeon, paralyzed by fear, watches, unable to act, as his sister turns to ash. He lets out an equally piercing scream, and his hands alight in blue flame and incinerates the owl he'd been caring for. Iraeon collapses, and the last thing he sees before the darkness takes him is blue flame where his sisters body had been moments before.
