《Dark Beginnings》Ch. 2 The Grimour
Advertisement
I woke up to an empty bed. Dani had left for work, and left me half a muffin and a cold pot of coffee.
I went straight to my study to write the strange dream I had, in my journal. I dreamt of a cold room full of dusty scrolls, and large circle with a star in the middle. Next to the circle was a triangle with incense burning in it, filling the room with thick smoke, and a smell I couldn't recall. A face was in the smoke of the triangle, but it didn't look quite human.
I got up from my desk after finishing my entry when I noticed something off, there was a book sitting on my shelf.. the book looked old, and had strange blocky writing on the front with a tree that had 10 fruits on it along with a star in a circle carved in its trunk.
Out of curiosity I opened the tomb. There was a flash of light. I flew back into a bookshelf . Pushed by some unseen force.
I heard a deep, gravel like voice as if it was in my mind. It said "What is the name of the one who has released me?".
"Sol-Solomon." I stuttered.
"Master Solomon, I am bound to you now that you have released me from my imprisonment. My name is Prometheus, the bringer of fire, and Lord of forethought. You have great things in your future."
I sat there speechless for a moment. "What does this mean for me?" I asked shaken.
"I will help train you to become a magician, and you will change the world forever, for better or worse."
I shuddered "Give me some time to process this Prometheus." I told him "you can't just chill out in the open like this how the hell am I going to hide you from everyone?".

A ring suddenly formed on my hand, with a strange signet. "I will reside in this ring to call me simply say my name and I shall emerge master" said Prometheus.
After he said this a bright light whooshed into the ring and it felt cold to the touch.
I spent the rest of the day reading the book and writing down everything that happened in my journal. If I was crazy I wanted people to see how it happened....
