The narrator begins..

 ( An elderly woman walks in the room. As she walks, she holds an ancient book. She sits in a chair, and begins to adjust her glasses. She flips to the front page, and glares at the words below. The words began to say, "Redemption". She looks into the camera. She smiles gently as she touches the page. She begins reading.)*holds the book**begins speaking* "Good morning. Today, i am going to tell you an ancient story that has been carried on for generations. The story is about a young king by the name of Shur time, who falls in love with a foreign woman. One day, the king has recieved a message that the lady has fallen sick by a deadly illlness. The king franticly searched for a cure, but sadly there was no hope. Being that the king believed he has failed, he locked himself away into his castle. One day, a young lady came to the king in request of a trade."

So the story begins...

*a woman knocks on the castle door**servant comes to the door* "may i help you?" *lady covers her face with her scarf* "No, you can not help me, but i can help the king find a cure for his dying love" *servant looks shocked* "please...please come inside" *lady walks inside the castle**servant closes the door* "What is your name so i can present you to the king?" "My name is Abigel Smalls"*enters the king's chambers*(pitch silence)"WHO DARES ENTERS MY CHAMBERS WITHOUT PERMISSION!!!" "my...my lord, a woman by the name of Abigel Smalls would like to discuss a propossion with you about a cure for your dying love" *king quickly turns around* "SPEAK THE KING COMMANDS" "your...your kingliness i come only as a helpless pessant asking for a favor in return of this antidote to your love's problem." *king glares at the woman* "what favor is it that you speak off?" "If the king only promises to keep his word to make sure my people are well taken cared of that i may give you this antidote" "As king over all this island i do swear to it to keep my word even if it means to my death bed" *lady grins evily* "As you say...my lord" As the lady bows, she whispers three small words into the air. "Cure the Dead" (POOF) *lady disappears* *smoke fades**servant nervously looks around* "wha...where she go?" *servant sees a red bottle on the floor* "hmmm...what is this??" *servant picks up the bottle* "my lord...there seems to be a bottle with instructions on the floor here" "READ IT TO ME!!!" "ye...yes my lord" *opens the instructions* "it..it reads...."As apart of your promise to keep, here is a message you really must read, for if your fair lady shall soon die, as you have promised, you must not lie...my instructions reads : first, go to the mountain of shaw and there you shall meet a woman named daman, she has one of the ingrediants that you will need for your antidote, second, you will travel to the land of hairesae, you will meet a man by the name of truthe, he has the second ingrediant, and last but not least, you will travel to the land of kemashe, there you will meet me, i have your final ingrediant. Make sure you hold on to that bottle because all the ingrediants must go in that bottle in order to complete the process." *servant looks at the king* "shall i prepare your journey, my lord??" "yes" *servant rushes to the king's room, and packs his clothes**servant comes back to the room, and hands the king the bottle* *the king stands up* "I will try to return as soon as possible, but if i fail to return within the next full moon, gather the wise men, and tell them to appoint hesus, as the next king" *servant bows* *king exits the castle* *king loads his carrage and rides off into the moon light*

Chapter 2 : The legend of Daman Cure...the owner of sheep skin

(250 miles from the castle) 

*king arrives to a small town that lies on top of a mountain** a large sign appears above the entrance of the town** sign reads* "Welcome to the town of Shaw" *king slowly rides into the town* As the king looks around the city, he notices that everyone there was practically starving. Little baby's faces so dry that even their eyes couldn't produce tears. Woman turned themselves into sex slaves, even though they have absolutely nothing to bargain with. Little boys learning to kill as young as age 7. Men becoming so desperate to the point of suicide. *king shakes his head* "this town is in turmoil...it's disgraceful" *king stops in front of a sheep keeper's tent* *king gets off of the horse**king ties the horse to the horse's bench* *king walks towards the entrance* "excuse me?" *an elderly lady turns around* "may I help you, sir?" "yes...umm...I'm looking for Ms.Daman?" *elderly lady giggles**a young lady walks inside the room* "I haven't used that name in two years...I go by Cure now" *king nods* "I'm king Shur, former ruler of Shurkingville" "Shurkingville..you say?...I had a cousin who use to live there" *the king looks nervously at the woman, hoping that she doesn’t recognize him* “have I met you before, sir?” “no, this is my first time here...” “i could have sworn that I know you...your voice rings in the back of my head like yesterday's recording” *she mumbles the king’s name under her breath* *she grabs a sword and swings it at the king* “HOW DARE YOU SHOW YOUR FACE AROUND HERE?!” *the king becomes frightened and quickly gets to his knees* “it wasn’t my decision to banish you, my dear...but after the counsel found out about my dealings with you...they went behind my back and used my name to banish you” *she glares at him* “look at me...” * the king slowly raises his head* *she steps into the sunlight and shows a huge scar across her eye* “this is the consequence of having love for my king, and bearing a child for him...but what reward do I receive? A scar, a child, banishment, and a king humbled because his new found approved lover is dying...in which he seeks a cure...” *the king looks confused* “a... a child?” “so...they didn’t tell you...how typical...”
