Assassin's Capture

I have been captured by the shadow fae, and it's my fault. They had us surrounded, trapped, and I did the only thing I could think of to save Zayden, Ajax and Rykon. In that moment, the only thing that mattered was keeping them safe. That's how I ended up here, being carted off to Elvespith, the major city of the Fae kingdom, to have an audience with the king, but little do I know he already had plans for me. He tried to convince me to enter something called the Champion Trials. A set of deadly feats in which the magic of the land tests your mind, heart and soul. I didn't know why he wanted me to enter, so I told him no. Then he bought out those three men I thought I kept safe, in chains. Now the deal was I would get back one man for every trial I won. It doesn't matter why the king wants me to enter or that I was at a serious disadvantage going up against people who've had years of magical training. I will win against them all, because no one was going to take those men from me. Not even a king.
