The chronicles of Ystergern

 Last weeks we've been writing different stories in class, we were divided in different groups and we completed the other group's stories. So all the stories have been made with the support of other people. This story has been made mostly by Iban Juarros and me, but as I've said other people have taken part on this story.

THE CHRONICLES OF YSTERGERN

Once upon a time there was a brave hero, called Ulthane, knight of the lightness. The lightness was the defeater of the darkness. Two great sides with different targets fighting since eons on the bowels of the enormous world of Ystergern. The lightness only wanted the difficult object of live in peace but the darkness wasn’t very sure of what the lightness wanted.

There was a legend which said that the forest was bewitched, it was surrounded of darkness. The darkness came from the trees, though it looked like a lie instead of having green leafs and a brown trunk they had it spiral trunks and black leafs. When one leaf fell down, a huge earthquake was happening in the kingdom of Ystergern. In the day that happened the never seen quake, Ulthane  got worried. He took the sword that was hanging below the door, rode in the horse and he entered in the forest.

In the forest found a monster. He decided to spoke  with him:

- Hello, who are you? - said the monster. - I’m the king of this forest.

- Sorry, I have entered here because a quake. - Said the Ulthane.

At that moment, the monster invited him to his house. When they arrived home, Ulthane saw a chocolate home with some mysterious animals. When he entered to the house, the monster invited him to ate something. When he finished, the monster offered Ulthane a bed.

Ulthane accepted the offer and fell asleep. Some hours later the monster approached to Ulthane and tried to kill him with an axe, but Ulthane stopped the attack with his sword. They started fighting. The monster made slow but dangerous attacks, whereas Ulthane made fast and contundent. Ulthane cuted the monster’s leg and this brought the monster to his knees.

-Who are you?- asked Ulthane

-I’m a simple server of the darkness, you can’t defeat it.

-I can, where can I find the darkness?

-You can find it in the old temple, but you’ll die.

-You’ll die first.

And then, Ulthane crossed the monster’s heart with his sword.

Ulthane cleaned his bloodstained sword with a cloth. And he started his way to the temple. He knew that it would be the final battle, it was very dangerous surely he would die, but he had to try if he wanted to restore peace in the forest.  While he was going to the temple he had to avoid many dangers, the constant earthquakes, the wild animals… but after two days walking

without stopping, he arrived to the temple.

It was a very dark place, he felt like 10000 eyes were watching him while he was entering more and more into the temple's darkness. Finally he saw him, the host of the darkness, if he killed him the darkness would have to find another host and that would take some years to the darkness.

-Hello Ulthane, you are here to try to kill us? -said the host and the darkness at the same time as they were one.

-I’m not trying anything I will kill you, at least one of you.

The host or was it the darkness? attacked Ulthane very fast, the hero couldn’t block the attack and he got hurted on the shoulder. But that, wouldn’t stop him, he attacked to the host but this avoided his attack easily. Ulthane tripped over and the anfitrion crossed him with a dark sword on the chest. The host smiled. Then the darkness tried to take out his sword but Ulthane held the sword and approached to the darkness, while the sword was entering more and more on his chest. The darkness was surprised, how could he tolerate so much pain?

Then Ulthane raise his sword and cutted the host’s head.  The darkness shouted it was getting weaker and weaker.

Both Ulthane and the host fell to the floor, the host was dead but Ulthane was still alive, he was very weak but he was alive. He was so weak that the darkness could posses him, and the darkness did. The darkness entered inside Ulthane and healed his wounds. Then Ulthane disappeared, now he was the darkness’ host.
