Episode 2

                       IT ALL HAPPENED

 At midnight as agreed, Radlicle and Elio came to find Raidclaus in his cell. In order to brake him out without anyone finding out, they had to come silently. At a late time like that, the dungeons were dark and hard to see in. In order to see, Radicle cast a spell to see.

“Magic, where did you learn to do magic.” Radiclaus asked.

“Shh!” They both almost shouted while being quiet.

After navigating through dark hallways, getting lost and almost getting caught multiple times, they finally got to the back exit of the Palace.

“Why don’t you know this Palace well?” Radiclaus asked.

“We’re not allowed to go anywhere in the palace, only the west wing.” Elio answered.

“Yes, we don’t leave.”

*Boom*

Radiclaus hit a huge crate by mistake and the gaurds immediatly came to check what happened.

 “Who is there?”

“I order you to let me pass at once.” Elio demanded.

“Oh, sorry your highness but you’re not sup...” The gaurd almost finished talking when Radiclaus smashed them into the doors, flinging them open.

“That’s our cue to move.”

“Wait, don’t aproach yet.” Radiclaus said.

“What is it, a gaurd?”  Radicle asked, on his gaurd.

Radiclaus walked to the Animal dungeon, the place where all the Kingdoms keep discovered creatures and animals.

  They look in every stall and cage until they finnaly came across a chained and bolted Basilisk.

“Bernieg!” Radiclaus shouted in relief and excitement.

“What is that thing?” Elio asked as Radiclaus broke the lock to the cage.

“Wh...what are you doing?”

As Radicluas opened the cage and tore the chains, Elio evaded.

“This is my pet and friend, Bernieg. She will take us where we would go next.”

“Where are we going?” Elio asked.

“To Upito, I know someone there.” Radiclaus answered.

 They arrived just in time, the city gates were almost closed. They signed into an inn in the edge of the town because it was too late to see anyone. The people at the inn asked lots of questions but didnt see a reason why not to let them in. Radicle had taken a lot of money and a man had seen it. This man was part of an infamous bandit group called Jeuy and they had recently had to pay for weapon shippings from overseas.

“We’re looking for a man called Ultar, he is my former teacher.”

 He went to the Juey leader and told him about the kid with all the money they need for their next deal.

“That’s what we do after all. Get the boy and do it fast, the deal is in two days.”

They made two traps, first is an ilusion trap and the second was a disguise.

“We’ve pased here three times now.” Elio said.

“Wierd we’re supposed to be there by now.” Radiclaus said.

A swift whistle sound as a sword came toward them with speed.

*Clang*

Followed as Radiclaus had drawn his sword faster than the attacker and had knocked his sword down. He wasn’t able to see his face because of a spell the bandits used but didnt care and put his blade into the bandit’s chest.

 “Run!” Radiclaus said, as a swarm of bandits started to chase them until a dead end.

Radiclaus took out his blade, whistled for Bernieg and took a stand. They took the bandits down and in no time they were back on their route. After walking for twenty minutes they finnaly arrived at the town’s high study.

“We’re here, and we are looking for Ulon, my old teacher when I was little.” Radiclaus told them.

 They searched and searched but to no avail. Apparantly Ulon had not returned since that morning.

“What do we do now?” Radicle asked

“I think we have to ask around, see if anyone’s seen him.” Radiclaus answered.

After asking lots of people they still had no info. Radiclaus decided to check around to see if anyone else knew what happened in The Great Civil War. After searching and giving up a man walked up to them and asked why they wanted to know what happened in the civil war. They knew that if they gave up their cover they would be captured so they told him that they were curious tourists and he believed them. HE gave them the adress he last saw him and left. Only one problem though, he wasn’t in the village. As they were almost out of sight by the gaurds at the gate, they were stopped by the same gang of bandits.

“You killed our brother Ultar, now you sha;; pay.”
