The Search for Immortality

Chapter 1: The Misterious Visitor
In a small village lived a young man of the age of 29 named Mark. He was a skinny, black haired man. He was a blacksmith at his store "Mark's Smithery". Mark was creating a cutlass when he heard a knock on the door.

"Come in!" he yelled. The door creaked open and a man in a dark cloak came inside. "Who are you?" Mark questioned. The man put down his hood to reveal a young face with a brown beard and hair. The man had dark, beady eyes.

"I am here to bring you news," the man said softly. "Your wife is dying in the hospital."

"What? How do I know what you say to me is true?" Mark was doubting that this man was telling the truth.

"Well," the man said, "you can see for yourself. The two men arrived at the hospital. Indeed, Mark's wife Caroline was dying.

"No," Mark said, kneeling by the bed his wife layed on. "Impossible! No!" Mark sobbed. He was devistated. "I can't let this happen!"

"There is a way... to stop this," the man told him. "A fountain. Whomever drinks from the Fountain of Youth, will become immortal." Mark looked at his wife, she was suffering. He couldn't let this happen.

"Where can i find this fountain?" Mark asked.

"The waitress at the "King's Arm" tavern knows more about this than I. She can take you to where it is,"the man told Mark. Mark walked over to the tavern "King's Arm" to meet this waitress. When he opened the door he immideatley spotted her. She was the only waitress working at this time, as the man told him before he left.
