"What about you?" the young boy asked as he looked at the man that had bin his father for the last year. His dark brown eyes radiating concern.
The elder sighed as he looked at the crowd in front of his manor. All held torches and pitchforks as a man in armor shouted about how evil the old man was. "I'll buy you some time take the back window and run. I have a small cabin three miles down the tradde road. You'll be safe there"
"But master I've only just learned how to maake the ritual salts," The boy replied his pale cheeks stained with tears
The man placed his hands on his shoulders. His blue eyes locked with his. "We don't have time. take this and run. I'm 257 I've lived more than long enough" He held out a black book that looked like it was bound in skin with a closed mouth on the cover. "just feed it" with that he shoved the boy away the last the man saw of him was his long black hair flowing behind him.
The boy ran. fater than he ever ran before in his fourteen years of life. He climbed out the window and felt the cool spring night air on his skin ass a blue screen appeared in the corner of his vision.
