The Magus Of The Empire Analysis

Thunder roared from the sky, rain was falling down on a cloaked figure in a dark alley of city of Hebatius. Blood was running down the forehead of this man.

"Is my life going to end here?" his voice was weak and his breathing was heavy. Shouts could heard from outside the street, the pursuers were looking for him. One hand was broken while the other clutched some sort of gem.

His body pressed against the wall he slowly sat on the ground putting his head down. "Where are you...Julien."

Two children could be heard playing on the edge of the forest near their village of Pillu.

"I got you Julien!" shouted Andre, swinging his wooden sword onto the head of his friend. Unable to put his own wooden sword up in time Julien …show more content…
Although life might increase slightly for them and their family, very few make it to the top. In truth the Magus of the empire gives hope to the lower class in exchange for their children in order to help with their research experiments. Many times not only do they never become anything more than just an assistant but most might die early from experiments from their masters.

The village chief of Pillu had once been a Magus and had said that a few of the children in the village have a good aptitude to become a Magus which is quite rare in a village so far away from the Capital.

The fight continued for a long time, this was such a big change from Julien I could find no openings in his stance; in fact, he was pushing me back.

"ugh... Julien have you been practicing?"

"What are you talking about Andre, I’v always been this good! I have just been hiding it!"

"What are you two doing!" two young girls appeared out of the bushes.

It was Bessa and Tilly our childhood friends. Both of them were the same age as us and was also tested by the Elder that they also have a good aptitude to become magus one day! Natural we became even more friendly from
