A Young Dreamer by Snake Eyes

When I was young I dreamt of adventure, For years I trained for hours at end but was never good at any skill, swords were never my thing... I almost gave up hope for myself, let all my dreams drift away...then, when walking along a mountains edge found a small hut in the far distance, with a small flicker of light gleaming through the window. I walked along towards the hut and opened the door. There was but a small wood fire, burning brightly in the middle of the room. Out of the corner of the room suddenly appeared a bearded, old man. The man did have no name to go by,He started to tell me a story, which enralveled me into his life, this was no ordernary man, we spoke for hours through the night and into the day, there were tales of dragons and ogres, witches and hags. The old man came to an end and asked me what I had done with my life, I replied "I have done nothing, I have no worth in my life, nothing to look forward too". He thought this was an awful life to be living, and told me there was an alternative. "Magic" he exclaimed. From this Mysterius old man i learned the art of magic and embarked on a new life in Brittain...
