The Ancient Prophecy Ch. 10

He remembered the very first day when he had decided to pursue the wisdom of magic. Now he wouldn't regret the decision. Being a wizard enabled you to magically create and destroy and manipulate things around you. Being a wizard enabled you to pursue knowledge further where no man had dared to go through. Being a wizard enabled you to travel between places in a blink of an eye, even to places inaccessible to common mortals...

"The man has so much to do." The Supreme God answered. "You've done the right thing."

"Is he ready to fulfill his destiny?" Falagor asked.

"He will be ready when he's ready." The voice said again. "Until then, the wheel of time goes on for the mortals..."
