Tales of Krown

[JackXoXLantern]

Chapter One

 

 

 

Krown swept the streets of Varrock all day, he was a janitor. Krown wore a cream shirt and shorts, he had short brown hair, his body was masculine, and of course handsome. When he was still a baby his parents abandoned him to a cook, when he reached the age of ten the cook died, and all his life he became a janitor. The only thing he owned was his old, long oak broom stick, and a small shack.

 

 

 

"Line up!"an old man wearing red robes shouted. This man was the one who gives money to the janitors everyday. Luckily Krown was the first one in line, he recieved fifty golden coins. He instantly dashed towards the bank while carrying his broom, he was still halfway from the bank when all of sudden, his broom snapped like a twig. He threw it to the ground in disdain and proceeded to the bank. 'I will buy a new broom made of yew!" he thought in excitement.

 

 

 

He entered the bank, "I would like to access my vault" Krown said gleefully,

 

"Yes sir, bank number and key code?" the banker asked curiously,

 

"Number 53987, code Ferondal" Krown replied, the banker browsed the key holder that was at the cashier table, after a few minutes, the banker gave Krown a small and silver key which had a Ferondal at the handle. He approached a stair leading to a room with hundreds of vault, he walked towards the first vault, it was locked with a padlock, he inserted the key and-

 

 

 

CLICK!

 

 

 

The padlock opened, as he opened the vault door, Krown saw only a chest in the middle. He opened it and found three-hundred golden coins, he took all of them, he locked the vault again, he gave the key back to the banker. He proceeded to the General store, "I'll buy a broom"Krown said to the shopkeeper,

 

"Yew? Oak? Willow?" the shopkeeper asked,

 

"Yew, brand Airbolt",

 

"That costs three-hundred",

 

"Deal"Krown replied giving the shopkeeper all his money, the shopkeeper climbed the ladder, Krown waited until the shopkeeper came back with a large, rectangular box. "Here ya go"the shopkeeper said and smiled. Krown carried it until he reached his shack, just south of Varrock square. The shack was small and had only one room, the only furniture there was an old, small bed. He gently placed the box it at the bed.

 

 

 

He gathered some twigs around his shack, and placed them on the sand(outside the shack, not inside), he made a fire and cooked a stew. After eating, he went back to the shack and opened the box in excitement, and there just inside the box was a long, dark-brown polished-handle broomstick, on the top of the handle was a silver plaque and it was inscribed "Airbolt", he admired every single angle of the broomstick, it was perfect. He slept after admiring it.

Chapter Two

 

 

 

The merchant grinned, he was about to be rich. "This is an heirloom of my family!" the merchant shouted at the mob and showed a golden hilt, "It is said that it is the hilt of Zilyana's sword!",

 

"I'll buy it seven-hundred thousand!"a member of the mob offered, the crowd cheered,

 

"I'll buy one-million and five-hundred thousand!"another member shouted, the cheer became louder,

 

"I'll buy it! Seven million!"a man shouted,

 

"No! I'll buy it twenty million!",

 

"I will buy it for seventy million!" a man offered, then all of sudden, the Varrockian guards rushed to the place, together with King Roald himself. "What is the commotion here?!"King Roald angrily shouted,

 

"Your Highness, we are having a business about this hilt"the merchant said as he showed it to the king, Roald's eyes widen in shock,

 

"I'll buy it two-hundred million, that's final! Wait here I will get the money!"Roald said as he left and proceeded to the castle.

 

 

 

-----After one hour--------

 

 

 

Krown woke up, it's already nine o' clock. He took a bath, then he wore his cream shirt and shorts, then he left carrying his new 'Airbolt' broom. He exited the shack and proceeded to the eastern gate of Varrock, as he was passing the Varrock square, he saw a group that was gossiping. He went nearer and looked, "Here is the money"a man in royal robes said as his guards placed three large and heavy chests at the merchant's caravan. The merchant handed a beautiful, golden-hilt to the man. "That's King Roald! His buying that hilt fot two-hundred million! What a waste of money"Krown heard from a gossiper.

 

 

 

He left the crowd and approached the eastern gate. All of his fellow janitors looked at his broom, they were admiring it. He heard some of them saying 'I'm so jealous!', he ignored even the teasing of the others. He just swept the streets all day while admiring his own broom. It was now five o' clock, the skies turned dark, black clouds rolled over the sky, "Look!"Krown heard from his fellow janitor who was pointing at the sky, he looked up, and there up in the sky was a medium-sized, glowing, white sphere. It was moving towards him, then there was darkness.... That's all he could see, darkness, and he lost his senses.....

Chapter Three

 

 

 

Three Saradominists monks entered the castle of Varrock, each of them carrying a strange item. The first monk carried a vial with a bluish liquid, the second carried a vial containing white powder, the third carried a mould for a hilt. The guards bowed as they entered the main door, the monks entered the throne room. "At last! You have come to do the ritual!"King Roald exclaimed,

 

"We are here to do it"the first monk said as he bowed,

 

"Can we see the hilt?"the second monk asked, King Roald showed it, there was a change in the hilt, it had two large holes in it back-to-back.

 

"T-That's the h-hilt of Zilyana!"the third monk gasped,

 

"Can we please begin it!"Roald asked in excitement. They all went up of the castle, the ritual was about to begin. The first monk gently transferred the bluish liquid at the mould that was upon a table. The second monk sprinkled the powder that made a circle around the mould. The third placed the hilt at the mould, the bluish liquid overflowed. The liquid scattered inside the circle, strange indeed because the powder acted like a gate to stop the liquid exiting. The monk whispered an incantation that was in elven language, the king watched it curiously. The liquid and powder levitated, it was mixing itself in the air, then a medium-sized, glowing, white sphere was formed. It quickly flew towards east,

 

 

 

"What was that for?!"King Roald asked the monks,

 

"We will know who will be the new General of Saradomin..."the monks replied.

 

 

 

------After 24 hours-------

 

 

 

Krown opened his eyes, he felt that he was lying on a soft cushion, 'That can't be, my bed is only hard'he thought, he stood up and looked at the bed, it was a bed for rich people! He curiously examined his surroundings, there was a large door made of yew, the floor was made from marble and granite. He approached a large table made of fine mahogany. There was only a book there, it's cover was hard leather, it's pages looked old and almost crumpled. He opened it and read it carefully:

 

 

 

After the GodWars, Zilyana, General of Saradomin, left the dungeon and decided to live peacefully in a place which we call Varrock. She was able to marry an elf, she had three sons. Her first son was an elf and was named Lletya, the second was a human and was called Sophanem, the third was also human and was named Varrock. They grew up quarreling for only one thing, Zilyana's sword. Zilyana's sword was said to be more powerful than the Godswords. Zilyana soon grew tired of the fight, so she divided the sword into three pieces. The hilt went to Varrock and stayed at his home, while the two rubies on the hilt went to Sophanem and he left and moved towards south east, the blade went to Lletya and he left towards south west. The power of the sword disappeared, it will come back when it is united. A prophecy was made that Varrock's children will have the general of Saradomin, the main question is, who is the prophecied one?

Chapter Four

 

 

 

Krown gently closed the book, the large, mahogany door opened. He saw Roald and about four guards entering the room, "So how is your sleep?"Roald asked with a smile,

 

"F-fine!"Krown replied forgetting that Roald was the king,

 

"So do you know your quest and mission?"Roald asked, Krown gasped,

 

"What quest?!"Krown gasped,

 

"I suppose that you have already read the book"Roald said, Krown nodded, "You are the general of Saradomin".

 

"W-what?!",

 

"No more questions and have this ang go to the bank and have your armor!"Roald said as he handed down a rusty, golden key to Krown. Krown left the castle immediately and he approached the bank,

 

"Where is the vault of this key?"Krown asked a banker as he showed the key, the banker was amazed and pointed at a staircase leading to the top. Krown went up and found treasures of Varrock, he tried to open the padlock but it won't budge, 'Strange'Krown thought, then he caught a glimpse of an old, dusty door. He placed the key to it's keyhole and-

 

 

 

CLICK!

 

 

 

The door opened, Krown entered, the room was dusty and full of cobwebs, the floos were made of only cement. He accidentally bumped at something, he looked at the thing that was lying on the floor. It was dusty, dirty and of course old. He cleaned it using a towel that was also on the floor. To his shock, the item was dragon platelegs! He cleaned the inside and wore it. He looked for a head gear, he found a Robin hood hat. He also found a Verac's brassard that was upon a table. 'Awesome!'he said to himself in excitement, he left the room and locked the door.

 

 

 

As he entered the castle, someone applaused. He turned his head and found Roald clapping, "Go training!"he ordered while jumping in joy.

 

 

 

------After two months------

 

 

 

Krown was able to master the skill in swordfighting, but he still didn't accepted the quest. "Accept it! For the sake of Runescape!"Roald shouted as he stamped the floor.

 

"I don't want!",

 

"You will!",

 

"Neve-"

 

 

 

BOOM!

 

BOOM!

 

BOOM!

 

BOOM!

 

 

 

Krown and Roald ducked as the walls of the castle suddenly bursted. They checked the Varrock square, the whole place was burning, thousands were screaming. "Zamorakians..."Roald whispered in horror.

 

"What happened?!"Krown asked a badly-wounded man that was lying on the ground,

 

"Za-Zamora-rakianssss"the man said as he completely died.

 

"What are the Zamorakians doing here?!"Krown asked the king,

 

"They know it! They know about you!"Roald shouted in fear.

 

 

 

------------Not far away in Wilderness-----------

 

 

 

Jack, General of the Zamorakians looked at his red orb. A figure of an old man appeared at the orb, "General! We saw the General of Saradomin! He still didn't accept the quest, but I'm sure that the event that we have done will make him do it!"the man said as he smiled in excitement.

 

"Good! Make sure that he will do it!"Jack exclaimed as the man in the orb disappeared. Another figure appeared,

 

"Drokaz! I want you to ally with me, let us destroy the Genertal of Saradomin"Jack offered the man,

 

 

 

"Why would the noble men of the Claws of the Devourer help the Zamorakians?"Drokaz asked angrily,

 

 

 

"We all know that Amascut is the goddess of destruction and Zamorak is the God of destruction too"he smirked, "The General of Saradomin will soon go to Sophanem and collect the missing piece of Saradomin's ultimate power, so would you like our group to be destroyed by Saradomin's general?",

 

 

 

"Hmmmhhmm, is that so? We will help, we will steal the missing piece from Sophanem"Drokaz said and disappeared from the orb. Jack laughed evilly, "Let the game begin"he whispered sarcastically.

Chapter Five

 

 

 

Krown was called from his bed four o' clock in the morning. He entered the throne room and found several items lying on the floor, "Pick seven items there and packed them at that bag"Roald said as he pointed at a table with three bags on it. Krown picked one and took a tinderbox, an axe, a small sack of food, three bottles, and rope. As he stood up, the door opened. Two people came in, the first person was a young lady that was about sixteen years old, she wore steel armor and wielded a runite sword, her hair was long and curly blonde, her beauty was for a goddess. The second person was a man and was almost thirty, he wore steel armor but is trimmed and he wielded a sword that was called 'Silverlight', his hair was short black, his face had few wrinkles and a few pimples.

 

 

 

"They are your teammates, they will join you in your journey"Roald said,

 

"My name is Kristel"the lady said,

 

"My name is Sir Prysin"the man replied and bowed.

 

"My name is Krown"Krown introduced,

 

"Where is your first destination?",

 

"Sophanem, it's nearer",

 

"Here take this money, buy some desert robes and waterskin"Roald said and tossed a small pouch of money. As the group was about to leave, Roald called them again, "I forgot, take this hilt"Roald said and gave the golden hilt, and they left just like that.

 

 

 

------After three hours-------

 

 

 

Krown and the group was able to reach the Shantay pass at exactly seven o' clock, "Ay mateys! Want to buy some waterskin and desert robes?!"a shantay asked,

 

"Is there anyway to reach Sophanem without having problem?"Prysin asked the Shantay,

 

"Of course! Use the magic carpet just outside of this Shantay!"the shantay replied,

 

"Magic carpet?"Kristel asked curiously,

 

 

 

"Yes, they will fly you up to a certain point"the shantay replied, "If you are heading to Sophanem or Menaphos use the magic carpet outside of this pass then head Pollnivneach then go to the station of it and you will be able to reach Sophanem or Menaphos in just twenty minutes, but still you must buy the equipment to survive the desert", Krown bought the equipment for the three of them and rode the magic carpet all the way to Sophanem.

 

 

 

After only twenty minutes they were able to reach Sophanem safely. Sophanem was a large city, the walls were made of bricks and it really looked ancient. The Sphinx patrolled the place and was full of knowledge, "Sphinx, do you know were to find the jewels of Sophanem and Zilyana's sword?"Krown asked politely.

 

"The twin-ruby jewel you say?"the Sphinx gleefully said, "The first twin is at the high priest's magic wardrobe, be careful for you see is not what it really is, the second lies beyond knowledge, a triangle where royalties go, be careful by thy Amascut",

 

 

 

"What do you mean?"Prysin asked fervently, the Sphinx remained silent.

 

"I think he said that the first jewel is at the High Priest"Krown replied as he scratched his head,

 

"Where do you think is the High Priest?"Kristel asked Krown, Krown pointed at a large building, the building seemed to be the largest and oldest building in Sophanem.

 

 

 

They entered and found the High Priest, the High Priest was full of ruby jewelries, he has a large ruby bracelet on his right hand, a ruby necklace, a hairdress that was color yellow and purple and had a ruby on the middle. "Umm... Are you the High Priest?"Kristel asked nervously,

 

"Why yes, I am the High Priest of Icthlarin, what can I do for you?"the priest asked,

 

"We are looking for the two jewels of Sophanem"Prysin said as the priest looked at them curiously, "We believe you have the first jewel, can we have it in the name of Saradomin?",

 

 

 

"Never will I give the ruby to anyone foolish enough!"the priest mocked angrily,

 

"For the sake of Runescape! We need the gem or else..."Kristel warned as she quickly placed the blade of her sword at the neck of the priest,

 

"I would surrender it.... In one condition"the priest said nervously, Kristel removed the blade from the priest's neck, "Find the jewel in my body"the priest said as he smiled maliciously,

 

"That's quite impossible!"Krown interrupted furiously,

 

"Choose or leave?!",

 

"We will choose"Krown replied forcefully, they began looking at the body of the priest, but it seemed all of them were fake. Then Kristel got an idea, she proudly said to the priest "The jewel is not in your body its in your magic wardrobe!",

 

"H-How c-could y-you know t-that?!",

 

"Simple the Sphinx told us about a magic wardrobe"Kristel explained, the priest sighed,

 

"I would give it!"he said forcefully, the priest took a yellow ball made of candle wax from a chest, he threw it to the ground and-

 

 

 

WHOOSH!

 

 

 

A wardrobe appeared from the ground, the priest opened it and browsed it, after a few seconds he gave the jewel. It was a ruby and it fitted at the hole of the hilt. "Do you know where the royalties go or the place were the second jewel is?"Krown asked the priest,

 

"Questions... Oh the second is at the Jalsavrah tomb, the great mummy guards it, beware of the traps"the priest advised with a sigh.

I believe there should be more description, rather than just the talking and quick changes of locations. I don't really see much flow to the story.
