Prologue: Victory and death

"My name? I don't have one as of yet. To get one, I would have to pass my final test and it's hard to do it while you are considered dead in your world.

"But about who I am... or was? I will stay with am. So as I was saying the name of my people are 'Druids'. After we were separated from our cousins, the 'Barbarians' to find a better way to protect THE Worldstone, we bounded ourselves to the very forces of nature, to understand how life can be upheld in peace and harmony, and to be protected from the Hell's hordes.

"So when time came for a dark traveler to take his way and leave all kind of filth behind him, my brothers have chosen me to go after him.

"The journey was extensive and difficult, since I was forced to use all my knowledge and strength just to stand on the edge of my endurance, in purpose of becoming stronger, smarter, wiser, and to find hope where there was almost none. But, I am thankful for my friends and companions that I met in the way. I was finally able to stand beside them against all our challenges; to fight together against our last enemy, one of the Three, the demon named Baal and his followers.

"In the last minute of our struggle where blood flew like rain, bodies lied under foots and we had overcome most of his tricks, I stood between him and our amazon friend to protect her from his last attack, (and at the same time use the chance to take his head in the process.) But unfortunately, I wasn't able to suspect that it would be my final act.

"I was too stupid, too rush and stubborn... too young to remember who I was standing against. So when his smile faced me from the ground, I was already slowly falling to my knees, holding my shield in my left hand. Earlier what laid in my right hand was my sword, then it was my still-beating heart."

"There aren't a lot of things I could think about. So when I found myself smiling on the look of tears from my friends. The last thing I said was that they all shouldn't worry because we won, and they should be happy. I was quite joyous myself, but not anymore."

"Out of the brim, I saw dark angel with two sickles in both hands. It was saying something to me, but I can't remember what it said. I then saw a strange rainbow of light. The dark angel gave me fear, but the light counteracts that feeling with a sooting and peaceful touch. As a result, I barely flinched when Death screamed on me when this light approached me."

"The next thing I remember is that I was lying under a beauteous shining tree. Its light looked a little dim, like if something was slowly draining the tree's energy. I also realized that I was being circled by my familiar spirit, plant and animal friends but then..."

"Master... are you all right?"
