Once upon a time there was a troubled land. It was a beautiful place. With ancient architecture and detailed buildings. Joining streams of the clearest fresh water I’d ever seen surrounded it. As beautiful as this land was, there roamed an evil spirit of torcher and poisoning zeal. "Yes indeed”, there in this wonderful land was a quiet and peculiar young man named beelon. He was considered a foul outcast in the land because he had no family. There for no notable heritage, Royal or even common for that matter. Thus he acquired the nickname "runt".
The king of the land had an army of 100 men All of which new the runt very well. Along with every other citizen of the land. Yes, it seemed to be a very closely knitted community. With banquets and balls, weddings and burial ceremonies. One of the less welcoming traditions was a cruel pass time the king’s men called "let the runt have it". Every year for eight years since Beelon was entered into young man hood the king’s men would play a horrible trick on Beelon. Calling it, "Time to let the runt have it". The previous year having told the king the runt was sleeping with her majesty and all of them holding to the story until his neck was in a noose being tried before the people in the courtyard. Not to mention being accused of treason, banished from the land and then hunted down the year before that. All the kings’ men's doing in the name of their ever so degrading pass time, "let the runt have it".
This particular years proceedings would be more astonishing and cruel then ever before according to one of the kings men they called fueki. For years he had been the thorn in beelons neck and the Thin line between beelon and the beautiful clairisa. Which was the king’s daughter. Yes ole fueki, filled with diabolical snickers and sinister hints of well-plotted mischief had it all planned out. With his fellow kings men in the gritty loop.They would offer beelon a high position in the king’s chambers. A Truths, for eight long years of defilement.
They planned to trick beelon in to believing it was their honor he be second in command in the kings army and chief strategist of defense. Second only to fueki him self the commander. So fueki being all but a slithering slickster, instructed clairisa to invite beelon to a royal banquet to be held in the kings chambers on the next sun down. Clairisa questioning fueki's sinister demeanor and sudden change of heart Cut her eyes, but then quickly replied I'll tell him immediately.
The knowledge of this invitation was the best news beelon had ever heard. He rifled through his small wardrobe. "What to wear, what to wear"! He repeated. Getting loader each time. Clairisa softly grabbed him by the shoulders and said" not to worry. "I think I can take care of that". Really!! Beelon replied. "Yes" clairisa said. "Come tomorrow and see the Tailor", You'll be as sharp as a needle,” she continued. Overwhelmed and nervous, beelon was uniformed and fitted by the Tailor.
The next sun down came and before he new it. He was sitting next to clairisa at a royal banquet in the king’s chambers. "Attention, attention, the king said clearing his throat. "We are here tonight enjoying this wonderful feast and all of these beautiful people as a celebration. A celebration of a marvelous and flourishing Kingdom and in addition, my commander fueki has some new developments pertaining to he and the rest of our men". The king continued. "Uh fueki”." Yes", the commander replied laughing amongst the other men while beelon and clairisa set at full attention amongst the others. " Come now, Grace us with your words ". The king said before taking a seat.
Fueki stood up and said. "Tonight is about one thing. One great and powerful yet humble young man " fueki continued sarcastically. "Tonight It’s about the young drifter Beelon! Beelon", fueki shouted. "Come! Stand before me here”. Beelon completely puzzled looked at an even more puzzled clairisa as he stood up to join fueki who had all but spilt his wine glass he had been holding at arms length since he started talking "Yes", fueki grumbled after taking a long drink of wine. "Tonight " my dear young man, Beelon, are being appointed at my right hand as chief defense strategist and second in command of this great army" fueki said. By now beelon was beyond surprised. His face was red, covered in sweat and his eyes looked like they would talk before his mouth would. "Hahaha" fueki's diabolical laughter had never sounded so good. "Yes let us feast and enjoy the night. Welcome to the chambers" fueki shouted while striking beelon in the gut deathly hard while the crowd cheered. Gasping for air and feeling all but faint, Beelon forced a confused smile of gratitude at the king who was just all to thrilled with everything in his old age. The music and laughter carried on into the night.
The next morning Beelon was met at his bedside by non other than fueki holding the same wine glass. Declaring Beelons first order of duty be escorting clairisa, the kings daughter to his private retreat just outside the kingdom by a small romantic pond. Fueki's plot to show the kings daughter who was in charge and project a more sensitive side after having granted beelon his new position. Beelon quickly agreed to the task. Two horses and carriage were drawn just outside the entrance doors by dusk. Beelon and clairisa prepared for their journey beyond the kingdom walls, strangely enough just happy to be going somewhere together. Neither of them new exactly what to expect, Or what devilment fueki had mustard up, for that matter.
So they began their journey. Along the stream that flowed from within the kingdom walls and through the woods. They weren't half way there when beelon noticed several horsemen coming from the opposite direction towards them full speed. "Clairisa" he said. "Whoa whoa" he continued. Prompting the horses to slow down. "Do you see that? In the distance there" horsemen, lots of them". “ Oh my God, yes I do what do you suppose they're after", she replied. The men closed in on them. The closer they got. The more sinister they looked. "This is not good" said beelon.Do you think we should make a run for it? Or perhaps I could tell them who we are. Yea that's it we'll stand our ground". Beelon continued squeezing clairisa's hand deathly tight. One of the horsemen jumped down off his horse and began to walk up to clairisa and beelons open carriage. He appeared to be the leader of the rest of the men. As he walked closer his men closed in forming a circle around them. "Greetings" beelon said. I am beelon. Second in command of our fair kingdoms army. Is everything alright?” The men looked at each other and laughed. "Ha, you hear that? Sir beelon. Second in command of our fair kingdoms army asks if everything's alright". The man shouted sarcastically. "Now you listen to me, " the man continued. Motioning for the rest of his men to come in closer." You better listen real good, second in command of our fair army. I don't know who you are, but we know who this is. This is clairisa. The king’s daughter and we're taking her for ransom and there's nothing you can do about it. Since I've been talking you've been surrounded by more then 50 men with armor and weaponry. This is a letter of ransom for your king. Take your horse and carriage "sir second in command of our fair army and you take this message to your king. Tell him karmatale sends ransom for his daughter."Beelon pulled his sword to the man's neck. "I shall kill you where you stand you foul man". Beelon said. Karmatale and his men laughed. "The man grabbed beelons hand at the grip of the sword and said." Even if you kill me now, 50 men will have their way with you and your king’s daughter. Shall you kill all of us?" Clairisa cried. "Go beelon. My father will know what to do". By now four of karmatale’s men had their sword raised to either side of beelons head.
So he began his journey back to the kingdom to take this terrible news to the king. As soon as the king heard this He declared fueki be banished from the land for leading his only daughter into the hand of the enemy and gave Beelon the position of commander of his army. Making his first decree. The return of his daughter and promising approval of her hand in marriage if beelon was successful.
So the men mounted their horses ready for battle and headed back beyond the kingdom walls along the stream and through the woods. Nothing could have prepared them for what would happen next. Suddenly they were surrounded. Accept the 50 horsemen from before was now more than 100 man. It was clear that they were out numbered and surrounded. Then a man from the crowd shouted. "Beelon" he jumped of his horse and walked up to Beelon and his men. It was karmatale. "Beelon" karmatale continued. "Beelon first in command of our fair army. Beelon replied. " How do you know of fueki's banishment and my army? Karmatale looked up at beelon and said. "Because I sent a spy to follow along and send news of you and your king. you see, we are your long lost family. There is no ransom, just my brother taking his rightful place in the kingdom and not to mention with a bigger army. Karmatale continued, smiling up at Beelon. You see this is our gift to you and our revenge for fueki's terror. This way we shall all triump. Clairisa ran to Beelon in tears." It is true, it is true, she cried. Karmatale Took them back to his land, where Beelon met all his long lost relatives and Clairisa Joined along.
They Were welcomed with a Beautiful ceremony wiith dancer's and a feast full of Singing and Laughter. Clairisa Was right at home. Beelon insisted that they go back and alert the king so he wouldnt worry but Clairisa refused. "I'm having the best time of my life", she said while grabbing a refreshment of the the table and motioning Beelon to follow her out doors. "Where on earth are we going", Beelon said as Clairisa pulled him by the arm. "To a very special place Clairisa said. They made their way up a steep Hill where Clairisa pointed down below and said. "Look Beelon". I'd been watching my father's kingdom from here while you were gone and waiting for your return". Beelon set down and said, " wow. What an amazing view". "Yes",Clairisa said, "But look beelon" she continued. "Fueki and his trouble makers are waiting along the path, I'm sure they have something terrible in mind for us on the way back". 'Come on" beelon said. "We'll alert Karmatale and his men so they can escort us back to the kingdom".
So Karmatale
