The Next Morning,
Liu Feng yawned. He was exhausted. He spent a majority of the night disassembling the gun and trying to scrape off all the built grease and rust. He did succeed somewhat but he definitely needed more time to get it to work again. He rose and went to eat breakfast at the table when he was greeted with the sight of his father speaking with a middle-aged man. They were talking indistinctly but Liu Feng could hear his name being mentioned.
“Yes Your Majesty, I will make sure that the job will be done. By one month he will be a different person entirely. I will do whatever I can, Your Majesty.”
“Good Samiel. Look, your new student has arrived. He is your responsibility now.”
Liu Man stood up, gave Liu Feng a smile and nod, and left, leaving Liu Feng and Samiel alone.
“Hello Young Lord, I am Samiel, the Court Mage. I will be responsible for teaching you how to use magic to defend yourself, help you everyday, and even attack others. You must remember though, that magic is a very rare and noble power, and must be used with caution and never unless required.”
“Yes of course. I am looking forward to this.”, Liu Feng shouted. He was pumped. He waited five years for this. Since he heard that this world had magic he was waiting to learn it.
Samiel took Liu Feng to a classroom and asked him to sit.
“First, before we start with learning how to cast spells, we must first learn how magic works, and how to channel that energy to make it yours. Generally most people are not capable of magic, but you were baptized when young so you will definitely have the talent required to perform even intermediate spells.”

“Now before we begin, I will have to warn you that His majesty has given me complete permission to ‘discipline’ you if the need shall arise. So all the work given will be completed the following day. Is that understood?”
“Yes Sir!”
“Very good, then I shall start with the class.
Magic is the fundamental force in the universe, and God has selected a few to give the ability to use it. But even then, a mage must follow a few rules. To communicate with the spirits of magic, which are the building blocks of magic, we must use and understand their language. This is the language of the spirits, Khair. The following week will be about familiarizing yourself with Khair, and learning how to speak it.”
For any normal person, learning a new language would have been very difficult. In fact, the learning curve on Khair is so steep that normally, children take about three to four years just familiarizing themselves with the syntax. But Liu Feng was a genius. He fit the very definition of the word. After Samiel assigned a timetable to Liu Feng, Liu Feng took out all the time remaining to practise Khair instead of relaxing. For him, it was a better use of his time.
But there were some parts of his schedule that he hated. He despised the history and cultural classes that he had to take because he was a prince. The swordsmanship class was difficult for Liu Feng, but he knew that it was essential for his safety in the future.

8 177The Grey Realm, an Erebus Story.
Written by: Staugroan and The Inklets. Edited by: Claudia Adams. In the beginning there was a god, who watched over and made one world his own. Soon after the god grew restless, but happened to stumble on a small world filled with life. This world was named Erebus by its peoples; humanity. The god was so fascinated with this new world that he started to copy it back home, creating oceans, forests, deserts, and so forth. Then the god created life and eventually his favored creations who would be immortals and be the better of mankind in every way-the elves. So often the god had traveled to Erebus that the two worlds became linked by magic and their inhabitants could cross at will. Relations between the races flourished, and a great empire was born in the Grey Realm, home of the elves. But the god once again grew restless, and set loose great beasts that stood at the top of any food chain, the apex. At first the elves met the challenge and fought them head on. But mankind was not so lucky, they died in droves to push back even a single apex. Something had to be done. Elves and man worked together to begin sealing off the worlds to protect mankind, to limit the ways in and out to better fight the apex off and keep their fellows safe. The ritual had adverse effects the likes of which neither the elves nor man could predict; the sealing of the worlds started slow, but the magic had never been done before, and in their ignorance it spread to completely cut the two worlds off from one another. It ejected the apex, and other magical being back into the Grey Realm, saving Erebus. At first the elves were content, they would find a way back once the apex were dead and gone. But the seal had done more than keep Erebus locked away. The powersource of the seal was magic itself, from both worlds, and it consumed it all greedily. The elves, weakened without their magic, crumbled into ruin, and the apex were free to hunt the other races of the Grey Realm. Two-thousand years later a strange phenomena is occurring and magic is slowly returning to the Grey Realm, and tears open that allow passage to Erebus. Thu'lain and a few elves must make the journey to fallen kingdom of the elves Anosora, in the hopes of reclaiming what was once theirs. They must face their nemesis the apex, and survive not only the species that have turned against them, but a terrible being left behind by the god to kill even the apex. Uch'l'thein, the faceless terror.
