The Craftsman 63 Starting Of The Adventure

As Daedalus slowly got out of bed and ready for the day he had a slight feeling of curiosity. It was only when he left his room to the family area when he realised why he was feeling curiosity. Daedalus decided that he would leave the capital and explore.

As Daedalus reached the family area he walked in to find that everyone was there. Daedalus was happy and immediately told them that he was going to leave for a while with nothing but his sword and money. His family was shocked but quickly got over it only Shaun got all teary eyed and ran over to hug Daedalus. Daedalus hugged Shaun for a few minutes and telling him to work hard in the future.

Later in the day, around noon Daedalus grabbed his sword and money and left for the capitals gates. As he was leaving Daedalus realised he didn't know where he was planning to go and smiled wryly before walking over to a guard. Daedalus had long put on a less royal and more adventurer like clothes so when he walked up the guard didn't show a modic.u.m of respect and said "Citizen what do you need?"

Though there was no respect in his voice it was clearly not rude. Daedalus smiled satisfied with the guard and said "Well first I would like to know if there are any interesting things happening nearby and secondly, I would like you to report to your superiors for a promotion!"

The guard looked confused for a moment until after he had carefully looked at Daedalus, that was when he realised how he had spoken to the crown prince just then. As he was about to apologise and beg for mercy Daedalus started laughing and saying "Don't worry I honestly don't mind, in fact I am glad to be treated like a normal person for once!"

Daedalus then wrote a note and handed it to the guard, it was basically a note to his superior that he was to be promoted on order of Daedalus crown prince of the empire. The guard looked over the note and bowed to Daedalus in thanks before telling him of all the recent interesting things that have happened outside the city. One such thing was that a small rebellion had formed to the far north of the empire, although it was small, because not many people thought bad of the royal family, it was a strong group of mistreated citizens. Another was a flood dragon that had recently been evolved from a snake near the north as well. There was also in another Empire to the far, far north west a college of sorts opening up for the gifted, and it happened to be that the two empires were good allies due to their families having for centuries been friends. Daedalus thanked the guard with a smile and left towards the north as that was the side with the most interesting things going on, as well as the most dangerous adventures.
