Jan 27. (A year after Pawneax left the Kingdom of Galdean)
The Forest of Kilgye a dark dark forest full of mysterious creatures such as goblins and what not, this is where Pawneax had stayed for the night.Pawneax had just woken up from his sleep when he noticed his water canteen was empty, he went to a nearby stream and filled it up...but as he was gonna take his leave he noticed a sparkle in the water."What is this doing here?" he exclaimed as it was the Imperial Jade Seal "A symbol of the throne".

Aegis was out hunting with Saber (his wolf) and likewise decided to fill his canteen with water from the stream. He waded through the bushes until he came across the man kneeling down and holding something very shiny. Aegis knelt down next to the man, and began to fill up his canteen. And strictly for conversational purposes he asked him " What is that?" As he said this Saber burst through the bushes aftr much toil and began to lick the water, and payed absolutly no attention to Pawneax, he was far to thirsty.

(A little startled) "Huh? you dont know what this is?" (shows it closer to Aegis) "This is the Imperial Seal its a symbol to the throne of Galdean". With that Pawneax filled up the rest of his canteen."A resident of this area should know that, as this province IS Galdean territory". Pawneax then put the Seal in his jacket pocket.

I dont know, Perhaps....!!!!! "The Royal Hunt is today isn't it?" Pawneax asked Aegis. "The royal hunt is where the king, his family and other nobles go out for a hunt of white elk".It happens once a year and many townspeople of Kilgye accompany them to watch. "We should probably return it to its rightful owner, and since Kilgye isn't that far away from the Kilgye Forest obviciuosly, I'll guess I'll go return it.
(Turning back to Aegis) "What is your name?"

"Aegis? Huh? I'll have to remember that name. By the way my name is Pawneax" was his reply.He then walked back to the tiny camp site that he had awoken from that morning, and started to gather all his belongings together when in his mind he heard a familiar voice which said. "Water below may overcome Fire from above". A quick pain started to fill his head but he just ignored it and continued to pack his things.

"So, where are you from?" Aegis asked his new friend. He noticed that Pawneax had squinted with pain, but decided to ignore it as it could of just been a cramp or something.

"Oh I used to reside in a town right outside Galdean and just south from here Its called Morove. How about you?. And I take it your gonna follow me?"
Pawneax got done with packing his things Him,Aegis, and Aegis's wolf "Saber" finally started there journey towards the city of Kilgye...

"hehe, of course, I have nothing better to do!" Aegis wanted to answer the question of where he came from, but he didn't know. His village was raided when he was but a mere child, he simply did not remember. Besides the city was completely demolished, he doubted Pawneax would of even heard of it...

They were half way through the Raviged forest when they started hearing the snapping of twigs and brushes of leaves get louder and louder the further they traveled.
"Do you hear that Aegis?" he questioned "I think something is following us" he immediatley say afterward.
"Maybe we should pick up the pace" he said while starting to walk a bit faster.

"Hehe, this should be fun..." Aegis said. He walked a bit farther as Saber leapt into the nearby brush. Aegis turned behind a tree, and pulled Pawneax with him. Aegis nocked his bow with an arrow, and turned to face the creature.
The tip of the nocked arrow nearly stabbed the man. "Hmph, to slow!" He said as one of his companions came from behind Aegis and stole his bow and arrows. The same man put his sword to the throut of Paeneax, while the other man had a blade to Aegis's. Both men were clad in a bright white armor, with a strange mark and an inscription on the chestplate. The sign of a Galdean elite gaurd.
"Galdeans, eh? What do you want?!" Aegis managed to say. These men were only slightly intimidating, but he had nothing to fear. Saber was still in the bushes.
"Hmph, that man, he has the royal seal. We demand you return it" The man in front demanded.
"Now, now. We don't even know your names. How are we to have a proper business exchange without some basic knowledge such as that?" Aegis retorted, he was getting a little arrogant now...
"We have no reason to give you this information! Now give us the Seal!" The man in back said, his blade still pressed against the back of Aegis's neck.
With those words, Saber emerged from the bushes and tackled the man with his blade against Aegis. Aegis took advantage of the other mans reaction to get pull out his shortsword and hit the man with the hilt on the side of the helmet. Both of the men, fell over and Aegis demanded that Saber release his hold of the man. "Now, perhaps we can talk. Allow me the honor of asking your name good sir knight." He said as he pt his shortsword to the nose of the man.
"Ha! impressive!" The man said, "Romy is what they call me." The man replied, "We have orders to retrieve the Seal that was left here by... that doesn't concern you. My comrade is named Viper. We are royal guards from the grand castle of Galdean.

"If you truly are Galdean Soldiers then where is you king?!.Shouldn't you be accompanying him on the royal hunt?!" Pawneax shot back.
All of a sudden a large thump had sounded in a neaby area.
"Wait was it you two that were making all that racket in the bushes?" Pawneax asked then took out his bow and shot an arrow in the direction of where he heard the sound.
A gurgled cry of pain could be heard in the distance, when two ogre's leaped out from the trees, one with an arrow in its chest.
Thanks to the ogre's masive girths they knocked down a number of trees that now seperated the group, Aegis with Romy, and Pawneax with Viper and Ogres on each side.
The ogre thrust its club towards Pawneax unfortunetly for Pawneax he had no real weapon but a bow and a staff was unable to block and was hit by the ogres mighty trust.(Sending him back a few feet).

"Hoho! I've found you now you big nasty cretins!" bellowed a powerful sounding voice, following by loud stompings. For all the noise it sounded like another ogre was charging up. However when the beast emerged into view things became different. A horned, furry creature resembling a minotaur charged out of the foliage, horns first. The ogre who had just sent a citizen flying turned dumbly toward the noise, only to be knocked likewise a few feet away, landing on his large rotund stomach. The beast stood up, large three fingered hands (two fingers, one thumb) gripped tightly onto a greatsword, which was held pointing straight up, hilt by his shoulder. He was clad in very thick, large heavy plate mail, with a blank, gray tabard over his chest and back. "Fear not villagers! Equinox the nifty, furriest of the furries is here to save you!" bellowed the minotaur in a lame heroic way.

(Lol, Equinox the nifty...)
"What the?!" Romy was cut off as he jumped out of the way of the incredibly massive creature. "Were not- He dodged the club of the ogre- villagers!"
