Time

     Five years have passed since the first battle with the Trojans and we are no further then we were then. These past years i have been thinking to myself why i got mixed up in this battle, what motives did i have in this and why did i let myself get so deep into this mess, this endless war.
     Athena appeared before me, apperently she was listening in on me and she told me that i didnt have much a choice, that i wouldn't let myself not help and let millions suffer and since i was the only one who could help i had to accept.

Mission

     He told me that their was going to be a battle near the east castle on the fifth and I was going to lead the troops into it. I told him I didn't think it was such a good idea but he told me I could do it so i went to back to my hut and prepared myself. It was the third so I had very little time to prepare but I managed.
     I sailed in along with eighty other ships at my command and fought a great battle, one that I had truly thought we would lose.

Help

     They put me in a cage with a giant door in it. Their was a weapons wrack in their and he told me to pick a weapon. I chose the sword since I was fairly skilled in it's way. He told me if I was ready and to brace myself for the beast. The door opened and out came an ogre that I was supposed to defeat.
     I did so with fair ease since I had taken on much bigger opponents without a weapon. He told me I was ready and lead me into a room. Their was a man their named Hephaestus and he presented me with golden armor, a shield, and a new sword. I told him thanks and what my next task was.

Training

     After I awoke I remembered that the first mysterious figure told me to stay in good shape so I decided I would train a little more vigorously than normal. After awhile of training the scrawny man came back, told me his name was Hermes and that I should probably get some sleep because I had a big task ahead of me. I turned around to ask him what the task was but when I did he vanished so i decided to just get some sleep.      I woke up in a room with the five figures and they told me that they were the council of five and that if i were going to help them I had to prove myself worthy.

The beggining

     Today started off as just a normal day, the same as any. I was walking in the forest minding my own business when some scrawny guy walked up to me and told me that i was chosen to participate in the war against evil.
     I thought this was absurd of course, and i asked him if he was joking. He assured me that this was no joke and that i should follow him immediately. I told him i would do no such thing but he assured me that i had no choice and it would be a lot easier if i just went with him.I gave it some thought and decided that it would probably be best if i just went.
     He lead me to an area i was not familiar with and five figures appeared telling me that I would have to meet them later on a different day, but for now just to keep my strength and energy up. I apparently fainted for I have no recollection of what happened next then I woke up back in my hut.
