The young man awoke to the bright daylight seeping through the cracks between the hastily set-up cloth and the cave entrance. It took him a moment to recognize his surroundings; when he did, he immediately wished he hadn’t. The thought of his village was simply too much to handle.
With a sigh, he shifted his body upwards, propping himself up with his right elbow while rubbing his eyes with the back of his left hand. The brightness of the sun stung his eyes, though he soon became accustomed to it. Turning a bit, his eyes found the triangular purple band he used in his hair; the mark of royalty in his village. Even if he had been exiled, he could not bear to part with it, for he felt as if his dark hair did not look right without it. He then quickly gathered his few belongings and stood, though he was hunched in order to not hit his head on the low cave ceiling. In one fluid motion, he swept out of the cave, snatching up the cloth at the entrance as he did so.
Outside, his beautiful steed stood waiting for him, ready. She was an elk, her dark hair sleek and antlers bent in the middle, making them look like little waves. She too wore purple on her head, but in the form of reins. At the sight of him, she made a delighted noise and nuzzled his cheek; in return he scratched her neck and fed her a bit of rice from his dwindling supply. He murmured a few encouraging words to her, including her own name, Hope. He then secured his bags to her saddle and mounted her. “Ride,” he murmured softly, and she immediately galloped off down the road.
With nothing to do but listen to Hope’s clacking steps, his mind was bound to wander. He, Eridan Ampora, had been exiled from his own village just a few days ago. The reason was simple: The leader was scared of him. He was accused of using unholy sorcery to try and take over as leader of the village, and exiled him. The Condence, their leader, felt the need to eliminate anyone who she deemed a threat to her power. Many years ago, when she gave birth to a child, she abandoned said child in the woods for the wolves to do with what what they liked. Of course, the story she told was that the child was “stolen”, but everyone knew that was not the case. They were just all too afraid of the Condence to say anything.
Well, Eridan was the one and only prince of the village.
So, of course, she exiled him.
He let out a tiny groan and reached up to his forehead to trace the mark tattooed there, as he so often did when he thought too hard about something. The mark was two lines with three zigzags each, done in purple. It represented his clan and social status for all to see. However, since he had been exiled, he had taken to covering the mark with a strip of dark blue cloth whenever he came in contact with civilization in order to not reveal his true identity, for it would undoubtedly be met with hostility. Men of his class were not always treated kindly, after all, for commonpeople tended to resent their rich backgrounds. Surely if he flaunted that he was a prince, someone would slit his throat in the middle of the night. He therefore slid his headband down, just in case. Better to blend in with the common man, even though he resented it so. He was not at all fond of the common people outside of his village, the Sea Village. The various Land Villages to the west were so uncivilized. He had to learn to deal with them, though, for they were his only hope after being exiled. He scrunched his nose at the thought of the peasants, but did his best to overcome his loathing. He had to learn how to deal with them in order to survive.
That’s all I wrote as a sort of introduction!!! Please tell me what you think :D
