A Simple Tale...
Prologue I-The Mage
The fire stirred gently as if calling out to the woman in the room who sat mending a skirt. Looking up to the uneasy flames she mumbled, "Alright, alright you have my attention, calm down now." Standing up she tossed the skirt on one of the two beds in the one room house, and walked to the stone hearth. Kneeling down she clasped her hands together as if praying.
"Flame of night,
Flame of day,
Grant me a wish,
And I shall surely repay,
If you would,
show me clear and true,
Who or what,
Comes near you."
A moment after she said the few words, the fire flared to show a wavering image of a man who was slowly leading a tall horse off of the road and into knee deep snow, towards her small home.
"A knight?" she mumbled raising an eyebrow as the fire flared back down. "Now what in Venus' good name is a knight of the king doing way out here, and in this weather!" Standing up she walked to the door. Pulling a dark blue hooded cloak off a peg, she swung it around her shoulders and then quickly replaced her soft leather shoes with thicker, sturdier, knee high boots she used when she went out in weather like this or when traveling.
Slipping out the front door she shivered, ignoring the cold she made her way towards the man trying to get through the blizzard. When she was a few paces away she called out to him, "Good day!"
The knight looked up quickly leaving his face open to the forceful wind. Walking towards the woman he smiled a bit, "Aye, good day to you too, but blasted weather." He put his leather covered hand on the sand colored stallion he guided. "Mi'Lady, if you would be so kind to show me the way to where I could stable Desertwind here?"
Nodding the young woman waved her hand and turned towards a barn that was a only a few steps from the house. Pushing the wooden door open she stepped into the warm and well lit barn. Tapping the toes of her boots on the floor to make the icy snow fall off.
Turning towards the knight she saw he was already brushing the wet snow off his horse, and only after the beast was warm and had fresh hay did he start to remove the snow off himself.
Pulling his cloak back the woman finally got her first look at the King's man. His light blonde hair and blue eyes did not suit his attire of leather and metal, and of course the long sword fasten to his belt. "Thank you, now could you do me a favor?"
"Of course, but Mi'Lord, if I may be so bold to ask, your name?" She looked down, having to yet remove her hood, wanting to know who this knight was that she was dealing with.
"Oh, excuse me for not saying sooner." He bowed, metal parts of his outfit clacking together, "I am Sir Quatre Winner of the lands in the east." He smiled gently as he rose. "And if you would be so kind as to point me to the great lady mage, Minako Aino, I would be quite grateful."
A small smile played it's way on to the woman's lips, moving a hand out of the cloak she pushed her hood back, allowing her blonde hair to tumble down. "Welcome Sir Winner, you happen to be looking at the mage you seek."
