Chapter 1.2

New Beginnings: 4th Era 84 B.C

Weeks go by, and you find yourself in a tiny hamlet amongst the hills, now far from home..Upon entering you're met with nothing but the howling wind and what seems to be an empty village squareWondering where to turn, you see a house wit a door askew, and in the feint light emanating from the inside, you see a tiny face quickly slip back insideYour first instinct is to go knock on the doorAt first you're met with suspicion, but then the kind old hermit living inside warms up to you..Upon hearing you're curious as to why the hamlet is so silent, the old hermit pulls you in close and whispers "A Skinwalker is among us. It eats man and beast alike, and everyone has retreated to their homes in fear of being attacked out of nowhere"You let out a tiny gasp in surprise, and before you can say anything else, the hermit takes out a glowing orb from his flamboyant robe, puts it in your hand, and says the following:"In this orb lies the answer to rooting out and defeating the monster, but I am old and weak, so only a young adventurer can defeat it. All you need to do is hold onto the orb tightly with both your hands, and you'll gain the power to defeat it"You look at the old hermit with skepticism, but you decide to humor him for a second.."And what powers will I gain?""Many things", the old man saysBefore you can reply, he starts listing them.."You'll gain knowledge most of those you encounter in your travels could never know exists, and as long as you act upon this knowledge you'll gain riches beyond most human comprehension""You'll gain influence comparative to that of a King's power, you'll learn how to bend society itself to your will, and most importantly, you will gain devoted followers who hang onto your every word and some will even worship the ground you walk on""But they will not do so out of malice or because you cast a vile spell on them, no..They will do so because you will become a great leader worth following"]{green}"If you do not do this, this town will be destroyed by the Skinwalker and your story will end here, but if you do, you will build a legacy that will be recorded in the archives of history, for as long as they exist"Will you hold onto the orb?
