I started to write a little of the beginning:
The Dileen – Chapter 1
It was a bright morning in Naerkiin, birds were singing as the sun unleashed warmth upon the island. The island was awakening from its temporary slumber. One boy, however, was still fast asleep. Daylight streamed through Karma’s window as he slept in. His mother would soon be awake and getting him up for school. Today was no ordinary day, for today was Karma’s fourteenth birthday.
“Rise and shine sleepy-head,” came a voice from outside of Karma’s room. Karma groaned and turned over as his mother entered the room. “Happy birthday, Karma!”.
Karma sat up and found a pleasant surprise, breakfast in bed. He thanked his mother groggily, “Thanks, mom.”
Birthdays were no ordinary celebration in Naerkiin, at least, not thirteenth birthdays. For that was when they would discover if they were to be sent off to the Military Academy – or MA for short - for four years, or if they could stay in the city, and get an education.
Most Naerkiinians were sent off if the inherited the ability to activate Auras. Auras allowed them to change into a state of power, their whole body glows and they radiate power. Over time they learn to hone this ability and use it to their advantages; turning raw energy into attacks, and even more advanced techniques like teleporting or shape shifting.
The King of Naerkiin – he was only known by his title – was the headmaster of the MA. He was a wise old man, if the rumours are true he was born many centuries ago. His rule over Naerkiin was stern yet kind. Nobody knows what his true powers are but it is said his Aura is one of explosive-nature. There was only one know battle that he fought in, the final battle of the war against the dragon, The Battle of Naerkiin.
Was a good 1st chapter. lol
