Chapter 2

Xalic started to progress titles in the assassin guild until one day there was another
incident. He was hunting gnolls, taglos and forest burners in the forest of nowhere.
The forest burners were lighting the forest on fire and one day the flames got close
and suddenly Xalic got flash backs from his childhood. He became confused and
disorientated and before he knew it a tiny forest guardian was dead. This was the
defining moment for Xalic, this was the day he knew that he was truly of the light.
Not that he ever wasn't, but now he knew for sure now, he could not be tempted
to the grey. Xalic vowed that he would never do harm to another being of the light.
Xalic continued to grow and fire remained a big part of his life, he was always attracted
to seeing fire, but at the same time, did not want it close. The love and hate of fire
was a burden Xalic had and could endure. This endurance gave him practice and
over time, he thought he could endure more challenges.
The war between light and darkness forever rages on. He learnt that those of the
fortress make a sacrifice, they sacrifice a life of peace, a life without murder to change
the world. To go out to the darkness and defeat it, to get their hands bloody. They do
this to protect others, so they do not have to. Xalic felt that his struggle with fire has
strengthen him and he could take this sacrifice. Everything came together, the love
of the light from his family and his desire for them and those like them to live in peace.
His new assassin skills had become formidable and capable of taking on the darkness.
Finally his ability to make sacrifices and come out stronger. Xalic now determined,
took a big step towards a new future.
