Aleind holds the blade's metal hilt in his hand; it is straight and plasma-like with two sword shapes curving outward of the middle one. It was made from a yellow energy that had a red hue to it. The blade used to be the hero of lights blade a hero who defeated darknesses brutal regime but died in the process and now Aliend held the blade in his hand. "GAHH" Aliend shouted as he swung the blade into a wall leaving a burn mark with a red glow in it. "at least it works."
He exclaims to himself in a deep voice, he then tries to sheathe it but realizes, that it hasn't been designed to do so. He looks around, With his village dead Aleind decides to track down the current dark occult and kill them.
As he begins to set off on his journey he sees a beam of pitch black Darkness steam from behind a mountain. "Alial castle?" Aleind says as he begins rushing towards the beam.
Aleind's village is behind a mountain, a high religious sanctum that worships light. It's only a few miles away from the castle which is in the center of the land of Alial. A land thats apart of the continent of Askcren. Aleind decides to head its direction but on the way he finds three of those oddly pale figures. Aleind already thought they were scary but Now getting a clearer look on them he realizes how weird they are. Their albino skin is covered in red spots. They wear a black battle garment filled with useless bits of metal, They have a black hood and their Mouths are covered by a sharp metal mouth guard. The three creatures close in on Aleind holding their sharp metal curved blades. "GAHHHHH" They screech in a piercing tone, charging at him with their blades. Aleind dodges the incoming attack.. he then grabs his sword and swings it cutting one in half. As it's body falls to the ground no blood comes out it's body instead disengaged into nothingness. To most people this would make killing them easier and would seem not even the least bit frightening. But imagine this if you expect blood to come out and you get disintegration wouldn't that be even more horrifying. While it sure was for Aleind ad for a moment he stopped in shock almost getting hit. But as the two remaining creatures blades closed in, his senses came back to life and he backflipped backwards narrowly dodging the blades. And as he flew in mid air he got and idea. "If this blade is so powerful what would happen if I jammed it into the ground" Aleind thought. So after landing Aleind slammed his blade into the ground at the enemy and a wave of rock shot at the remaining creatures as the energy from the sword collided with the dirt. The rocks pierced their flesh and the light energy conducted through the rocks, allowing the energy to also pierce the creatures. This gave the rack and cracks in the ground a red and yellow glow. And once everything was settled the creatures disintegrated once more. Aleind then started walking towards the mountain with the sword in hand.

A few hours later Aleind is at the top of the mountain. He looks outward into the vast landscape but specifically lays eyes on the castle which has a beam of pitch black Darkness, erupting out of it. As soon as he sees it he rushes over to the castle as fast as possible, slicing down any of those oddly pale creatures that get in his way. He eventually makes it to the castle entrance. The castle is a large stone structure with 5 blue pointy wooden tops on it,
And the castle is surrounded by a village which is surrounded by a wall with an iron gate. However the iron gate has been broken to complete dust, and instead in its wake is a wall of pure dark energy with four beams connecting to it. Suddenly from the top of the gate Areind sees the man in armor next to two of those creatures. "So, you've decided to play hero?" The man in armor says rage boiling in Areind. The Man laughs for a moment then says "where are my manors my name is Ghirahim!" He pronounces in a deep voice. "Oh and these things you've been fighting are called darkwraiths." He says laughing mid sentence. Aleind in a burst of rage attempts to scale the gate walls. But sadly he is unathletic and has no idea what trajectory is so he fails immediately. "HAHAHAHA WHAT A DUMBASS!" Ghirahim exclaims. "If you want to stop me then you break the barrier that stands before you, and to do that you must go to the 4 ancient temples that lie in this world and defeat the guardian of the dark inside…I'll be waiting" Ghirahim says as he leaps away into the sky. Aleind slams his fist into the ground, scraping it, leaving it slightly bloodied. "I’LL KILL YOU..YOU BETRAYER YOU DAMM BETRAYER OF THE GODDESS!" He screams fully beginning his journey to kill the Dark occult. He sets off following one beam into the forest.

The forest is thick and dense with mushrooms and scrubby everywhere. The sounds of creatures unknown echo through out it. As Aleind wanders searching for a dungeon he hears a loud shriek. The shriek is familiar yet not something he fully recognizes until he comes face to face with it. As after pushing through a few bushes he comes face to face with three dragons feasting on the corpse of the dark wraith.
Dragons are a medium sized creature on one hand, they are smaller than a tiger but on the other, they are bigger than a wolf. They are red and scaly with a golden looking stripe going down across their back all the way to the Tail which is fully gold.
They have pitch black eyes and sharp teeth for tearing the flesh off of enemies. Their arms are a medium length and their feet are arched backwards, so they can easily leap off the ground and use their red golden wings to fly away from prey. Either because they're done eating or to breathe fire at them.
Despite the danger they pose however they are a delectable dish and the main source of food for the common mortal. And Aleind is quite hungry, so he charges in with his blade in hand stabbing and killing one however the two that remain immediately start attacking him one slashes at Aleind who blocks with the sword. However despite touching the energy directly it only makes the dragon flinch in pain. The other starts flying and shoots a fireball in Aleind's direction forcing him to dodge. And as unathletic as he is he ends up falling off balance. Suddenly (and luckily for him) gunshots are fired directly at the dragons killing them completely. "You okay? A deep feminine voice echoes through the woods, (and I know what your thinking love interest huh no you'd be wrong I'd never let this guy get anyone despite his straight edge also the girl im introducing is gay)
Aleind turns his head to see a Lightly buff pink skinned woman standing there. She's wearing a black set of light leather armor and a type of black and red red metal visor on her head, She holds a grey pistol in her hand and has deep Yellow eyes and her long dark black and purple hair tied in a ponytail formation. "Thank you for your help." Aleind responds. "Your welcome..but why would someone like you be out here in a time like this?" She asks.
Aleind then explains what I just told you in a quick and frantic manner. "Ah, so you're village got as well." she says. "WAIT! your village was burned as well?" Aleind asked in shock "yes..it seems everyone has." The girl states. The news shocks Aleind, he's appalled that multiple villages were torched as a flood of anger consumed his body.
"Oh btw I should probably introduce myself," the pink girl says "my name is Reion (ancient tongue for beauty)." She says, Aleind's anger calms down for a moment and he says "nice to meet you Ms Reion". After that they talk some more about their situation and come to the subject of Aleind's sword and his goal. "So that is the sword of legends!" Reion says her in a cocky tone.
"So you knew?" Aleind responds to her jolting his hand away as she attempts to grab it. "Of course I knew, everyone has heard the story of the hero who wielded the blade and defeated darkness." She says, "So you're going to go and disarm that gate but first you have to find 4 dungeons and defeat some type of guardian. Well then sign me up if It means revenge then of course I'll come!" She proclaims. Of course Aleind accepts their is no reason not to after all and with that they continue deeper Into the forest.
