Rise of Aaron

Rise of Aaron

the city that once flourished on the banks of River Sumida was partially destroyed by a ruthless tyrant . Fate has chosen Sauve to lead the destitute people of Aaron to restore their great city .

In Paparazzi , Token , king of Amtrak , who recently captured the city had put a 5 million Rubin bounty for the culprit who had killed his family members . Recently , there had been an increase in demon activities in the north of Amtrak . Sauvé , a bat demon leader who lived near the city , approached the king to help him out in the situation . The king did not like demons , so he refused his help . But among the casualty , was Sauvé’s best friend Yak-Throe the future king . So he went out of the city to begin his journey of vengeance .

He started by attacking travelers and looting them , he acquired some money with which he bought iron shields and buckler, and Dolphin helmet , a special kind built only in the city . But , the real thing was the Falcon sword .The magic books in Amtrak archives were however not of much use . The Royal guards were after him and was ready to capture him . Sauvé was however much more faster than them , he went to the bat-cave to discuss the whole situation with his father . Finally the Elder bats decided that Sauvé must go to the town of Gaea , a town of magic . But , firstly he must go through many dangerous obstacles , the jungles is Gravari are infested with very powerful demons . The Elders said , he must go to the town of Salix for further information about Gaea with two bat demonsTaka and Villa .

Sauvé fought with many goblins and trolls in the Gravari highway on his way to Salix located near lake Tax-pogo , the source of R. Sumida . Upon reaching Salix , he took rest in the Teri Inn , as said by the Elders . Teri , Taster Measly , knew the Bat elders and agreed to help the youngster . Teri gave Sauvé , the amulet of Tara-k , which helps to fight against ghost and ghouls . Having gathered all his stuff , Sauvé entered the Temple to pray to the Earth Mother . There is still a long way to go and for Sauvé since the journey only begins ☺ …

Leaving Salix , Sauvé headed for the forest of Toot , on his way he fought with a whole bunch of forest trolls . The trolls tricked him to a place where they all attacked with reinforcements . But , Sauvé fought with all these trolls but killed them all with the two demons , unfortunately , Villa was killed by a troll . They laid him to rest there and continued deep into Toot .

They met with a tribesman who led them to hischief . The race had fur covered bodies and had horns and were called Sass-watch tribeThey were a type of gnarls , but more civilized and well mannered . There leader Gauss , the tooth-slayer told Sauvé to go to the city , Take , to the west which has been attacked by nomadic Centaurs . Sauvé must save the citizens of Take and escort them to a nearby hill where they will be safe . Gauss bade Sauvé off , and wished him good luck .

Sauvé went near the city only to see ruins and a deserted town with many villagers killed . He entered the city to find a boy injured , lying half-dead . He dragged him near the hill and gave him water . Slowly the boy told that his name was Xelda ,and he had lived in the city . Sauvé agreed to take him into their party . They went back to Sass village , and spoke to the Elder , who told them to rest . The next day Gauss gave food ration to them , which they desperately needed , and gold coin , jewels , which they had looted . He also gave Sauvé a magical spell-book , a map and told him to mentor Xelda , and , take him to Purim city .

They headed eastwards across a bridge to Purim , on their way they faced many monsters , but , defeated them all . The magic spells came in handy . Xelda came to know a lot about fighting on their way . When they reached Purim Xelda found many of his friends living there , after having escaped the clutches of the centaurs . Tory was his best friend who had moved there and was livingwith his parents . He told the party to buy special cloths and armor from the city . The Phoenix armor was a powerful type of armor built here with which the citizens had protected themselves from the many invasions . They bought one for each and new axes and swords , because they didn’t know what dangers might be lurking beyond the horizon .

Tory’s grandfather told them that to get to Gaea , they must go over the Kraken mountains , infested by very powerful demons . Going over them was nearly impossible , so , they had to find the Portal of crest which would take them to the other side of the mountain . There is a woody hill-slope on the west of the mountain . The portal is somewhere near here .

So they went for the mountains , when the reached its base . they were attacked by were-rats , after a vicious encounter , they killed those rats , but Xelda got bitten by a rat . They had no medicine with them to cure Xelda , who was dying . Still , they continued into the woods in search of the portal to reach Gaea as fast as possible . Suddenly , they saw a wisp moving in the forest . They followed it to reach a small well . A helpful nymph lived in the well , it came up to talk with Sauvé . Sauvé told it about Xelda , it told that the water of the well would heal anyone . Xelda drank it and the poison was removed . They thanked the nymph , the nymph told that she was AralSunni , her mother was a goddess living in the Mystic Peaks . But , an evil god took her power away and had killed her . Her father , a mortal had managed to keep her safe in the pond as a nymph . When Sauvé asked who the evil god was , she told it was Uri-do . He had also transported the portal to an isolated place . The party felt hopeless , but the Aral assured them that if they find her the staff of Baste , she will regain her powers and help them find the portal . The four were ready to move on …

Aral told her staff was somewhere in the nearby village of Aaron . Upon reaching the village had grown into a bustling city , Aral had to convert herself to an ordinary girl . When Xelda asked where the staff was , a farmer told them that it was protected in the castle keep . When they tried to go into the castle , the guards backed them off , they went back into the market of the . Sauvé realized that someone was following them , when he looked back , a shadow suddenly whisked away . Sauvé went after him and caught him . The man surrendered , he told that he was a spy from the resistance movement . He was a Azonic soldier . Aaron was once ruled by them , but the Chiron Empire had taken control over the city .

He took them out of the city to a cave near the mountains to the Azonic chief . The chief told them about their identity , and after knowing about Aral , he told them that he would be glad to help them in their quest , but they had to take the castle to find the staff . He told them that he was Zed Aso-san-so500th heir to the throne , and that the Empire had taken the city only one generation ago . They decided to help him and told Zed to prepare his own rebel army . Zed displayed his finest soldiers , the Humana,with which his ancestors captured nearby towns and villages . He also got some help fromPurim which was also afraid of the Empire , it had sent Neon-troopers ,average soldiers with fast fighting capability . Plus Shamans from the nearby forests also wanted to help .

At dawn , the army attacked , the walls of Aaron were breached in a nick of time ,orange troopers were special empire troops that fought to there last death here , buying time for the other empire troops , their troops regrouped and attacked , the empire sent mounted soldiers charging onto the rebels . Zed was an excellent strategist , he placed all his soldiers on the roofs and rooms of the houses . The empire troops had to do house to house search , the rebel troops were light and were better at warfare in close counters . They isolated their troops only to get them killed in the hands of the rebel troops .After some hours the 2 hundred rebel troops had killed over a thousand empire troops . The citizen began to take side in the side of the rebels troops . Sauvé and his party were fighting very well , Xelda led a fresh attack from rooftops on the castle . Many of them managed to hack from nearby roofs into the keep . None of them managed to return or flee . Zed ordered his troops to hold their positions . Aral Sunni managed to sneak into the keep and located a place where the staff may be hidden . The party along with rebel leader Zed and his troops managed to hack their way inside the keep . But , they got stiff resistance from special empire troops , the Pantherand Yeomen .

After fighting the Panther and Yeomen troops , many of the rebel troops were killed . The party had to use magic in order to kill them . Eventually they were annihilated , Zed and the surviving rebel army came face to face with Dark,the evil Ruler of Aaron …

At first Dark attacked Xelda , he made his move an leaped backwards . Zed then attacked Dark , who stepped aside and used he force of Zed himself to throw him on a side and injured him . Sauvé rushed forward into the battle and used his Speed Shot and tried to injure Dark . But , the attempt failed , and Sauvé got paid badly , Emperor Dark kicked him on his belly and hit him on his shoulder so hard that his bones cracked . Aral got angry at this , she used the elemental strength of water to kill the Emperor . She managed to punch through his body water reached his lungs and heart and Dark was chocking to death . Then suddenly they could hear the sound of Mantras coming from all directions . The force of water began to die out and the Emperor was restored , the Rebels had totally underestimated the Emperor .

The Emperor renewed his attack , he attacked a rebel trooper , killed him , his body was burnt away in Dark’s immense strength . Next , he attacked Aral with the might of ten tigers , but Sauvé suddenly came in his way , destroyed his spell and chanted the sacred bat spell – the Usher Mantra (ﻯﻠﻒﻵﻳ) . The whole room began to vibrate in the chanting , Sauvé’s wounds had healed and he went head-on on the Emperor , and sliced him with his Falcon sword . The wounded Emperor fell on the side . Some Empire soldiers came charging from the next room and fell on the unexpected Rebel warriors and almost annihilated them . The rebels launched a counter attacked , but the Empire warriors made the rebels drench in their own blood . They attacked Sauvé from behind and knocked him unconscious . Taka , Xelda and Zed finally wiped out the Empire troops . But , the Emperor was rejuvenated to full strength again . He went head-on to the other , he sliced Taka to pieces and devoured him , Dark transformed into a powerful demon named ╚╬╝ Fiji-hale ╚╬╝ . He charged at Zed and injured him baldy , Aral tried to put a spell on ╚╬╝ Fiji ╚╬╝ , but , he was now too powerful and lashed at Aral . She cried and melted away as water . Sauvé went mad , and charged at ╚╬╝ Fiji ╚╬╝ , but he hit him and left him half-dead . Lastly , Xelda attacked the Emperor , but he attacked him fast and pierced on of his eyes . Still , Xelda would not give up he took the Tara-k stone from Sauvé and used the dying Zed’s Mirth-viridian sword to slice magical Tara-k stone into two , which exploded with a bright light and all went white …

On Going upstairs , Sauvé told them that he was fine , just needed some rest . But he also gave a painful news , Zed had died last night , and his body would be cremated today . So , all of them went out , as they traveled the reached the Castle of Aaron , it was very cold and snowing outside , so hey decided to go in and take some rest . They were greeted by the mayor of Aaron and the Lord of the Castle , Sir Humphrey Davie Dêutch , he was in charge of the Castle , even during the Azonic rule and also the Empire’s rule . But he had been a silent crusader when it came to welfare of the citizens . The Mayor Mr. Sean Dãimon had been a supporter of the rebels , still his devotion towards the people of Aaron made the Empire to choose him for the mayor . It is said that the mayor has Demon blood in him passed down through generations .

Later than day after a simple meal the whole city seemed to have burst in tears and agony for the King who had fought for their independence . Zed’s body was wrapped in fine silk cloth of different designs and was paraded throughout the city , and brought to the old temple in at lower part of the city . Before the statue of the Goddess , it started talking , a bright light shown from Her lifeless lovely face and the words came from Beyond – Aaron belongs to Sauvé , he alone can lead it’s men to their true destiny – and the light slowly faded away .

After that , the body of Zed was loaded on a ship made of rose and sandal wood along with oil black powder ; and set sail . The elite archers of Zed fired fire tipped arrows on the ship and it instantaneously caught fire . Xelda and Aral shed a tear of two , as the burning ship sank all it’s golden treasures , the spectators slowly went homewards . Only Sauvé , Xelda and Aral remained … thinking … about what would happen to them , and there mission ahead . Suddenly Aral aroused everyone's spirit by showing some neat tricks with her new staff . The party suddenly lighted up and went home with a high spirit – here we come Uri-do !!! – Sauvé yelled .

Ascension of Sauve as the king of Aaron ----------------------------------------------

Aaron makes alliances with other kingdoms ----------------------------------------------

Many days passed , Sauvé , sorry Sälein Sauvé dér Aaron realized it’s time to rejuvenate his citizens with something new . He proposed to Aral , now Ariel Búndth , and she couldn’t refuse . The couple were happily married in Aaron and went to their honeymoon in the desert casino mini-city of Ĕl Bandoré , now a part of Aaron .

Since Aaron was reclaimed , Sauvé has been constantly expanding it’s borders . he contacted his bat elders and upon receiving his messages , they were overjoyed . Soon the bat coffers began to fill up with gold and jewels . Sauvé soon realized that his work was far from over he had to find the murderer of his closest friend Yak-Throe , and the only way to find that was to get to Gaea as soon as possible , and for that he needed to find the portal that was teleported by Uri-do to some other place . Sauvé thought it would be best to sent scouts and geologists in all directions while he strengthens his home base and prepare an army , and he himself goes peace missions to make new allies .

So it was set , but easy to say , yet difficult to perform . Sauvé had to set up training schools and husbandries to train and master scouts . He had to set up universities to train geologists . And soon the Bat Yaksha (Demon Tribe) had set up a home to challenge their former superiors , the kings of Amtrak . Soon Token , the king of Amtrak agreed to have Bat ministers in his council , and the Bat Yaksha became the strongest Yaksha in the known parts of Paparazzi .

And soon Sauvé’s new plan began to take shape ……
