How it all began? That is question which is asked from me many times and probably will be asked again and again.
Thus I decided to do this small book if you wish to call this that so that I don't have to tell such old tale
again and again to generations to come. It's such bothersome job even if I am an eternal being. In any case
lets begin from the beginning...
Tale I: How it all began.
~Chapter I: The beginning ~
I was once a normal boy just like any of you without any knowledge what happens outside world. My name was back
then Eero and I born in a small village called Kotka. Oh don't bother try find it from maps. After all it's
long gone as that world where I lived was the old world before the great war of ancients or the cataclysm. It's
now in current world somewhere in the great sea. Even I am not sure where it resides currently thought. Well
back to the story. I lived quite normal life until I was seventeen I believe and after that my whole world turned
upside down. It was tenth day after my birthday when it all started to happen. I met an old wanderer. He had long
grey beard and wore a dark grey cloak which was dirty from all that travelling. The best thing I remember about that
man is his sky blue eyes. They were eyes which when looked at seemed that they could see every secret you hold. Oh
how surprised I was when I met him and he seemed to know my name. He gave also guidance that I should travel towards
north to the great mountain range of Shii. Of course I got interested and wanted to see what was going to happen when
I go to that place but also my common sense said that it would be suicide so I decided to stick around that old
village. Oh how little did I know that in five days I started my journey to the north. An unknown desire to go there
struck me from the day that wanderer told me to go the north but I fought against that desire for five days. Well
I lost to that desire as I told you before. Well my parents were poor so I had to steal the little supplies I could
get to the journey which would take around a month by foot. When I had gathered all supplies I could get I started
my journey towards the north. That is how my first adventure began. Quite cliché story don't you think but try
bear with it.

Author's comment: Well I think I pulled this first chapter pretty well...
With title ever so original as "The Beginning"
Of course there are some mistakes I am sure and it could have
better flow in some points. I am not a book writer nor is my English
my main language so bear with it. I take gladly feedback from this
story. Oh and I don't try hide it Belgarath the Sorcerer by David and
Leigh Eddings has great influence in this story as I loved
how the story was told but don't worry this is not going to be rip off
as the story shall be different of course but this has quite few
similarities to that book. Oh yeah there are going to be around three
tales. How it all began, The Great War of Ancients and The
Cataclysm and To this day.
So in any case until the next chapter...
