I am aware that a number of people were following this stoy with enthusiasm. That is why I decided to return and finish this project. This is the edited version of The Nunolian Chronicles. Today I am posting the Introduction and the First Chapter the others will follow soon. Oh I'm so sorry for the fact that the story is very long but that was the only way to get the information needed all in.
Thanks to all of you who did follow this story and commented last year. Also I am opened to suggestions

River hills, 50 years ago.
It was a dark autumn night, with a smooth and gentle breeze suggesting the coming of winter. A lonely shadow is seen in the backyard of a small wooden cabin, constantly looking to a shiny silver object. “What’s this Mars seems to be out of his place. This can only mean trouble; I better report this to my order." The shadow whispered to itself.
"Witch Charlotte, are you there? Answer me this instant." The voice who uttered these words was fading and echoing in the inside of the cabin. Charlotte rushed to her cramped living room and stared in disbelief. Through her crystal ball she could see the wise green eyes and the wrinkly face of an old friend.
"High Mage is something wrong! Why, if I may, are you calling me? I believe that the last time we talked was at my graduation 500 years Ago" she enquired, it couldn’t be true it had been so long and the memories...
"You are correct my child, but that's not important. You noticed Mars position? Good, that’s why we need you to come to the White Tower. It’s very important that you get to Gerer in 7 weeks"
"But what about my house and my service here?"
"YOU ARE A WITCH ARE YOU NOT? And whatever you do you must get here in 7 weeks."
"Yes master." With that, the connection fell and Charlotte stayed in the darkness in thinking deeply in the coneversation that had just taken place.
"Magyca Ordenum Comjerim Substitutus"-she chanted in an old language-"That should do the trick"
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
The creature yelled in terror after being called
It was a female replacement, the magical servants of those who belong to the Olde Order of Mysterium, dressed in the usual light brown gown with long sleeves. Like most replacements she was strongly built with bright brown eyes and hair color which she wore loosely-"You called madam?" It was not usual for her mistress to call her, for more than 500 years she was only called 4 times
"I need you to take care of my house while I’m gone. Do you think you can do that?"-Charlotte's voice was harsh, much more than she intended.
"Yes ma'am"-the replacement answered shyly
"Good"-Charlotte started to relax a bit-" What’s your name again?"
She could hardly believe it, since she was last summoned it had only been 7 mortal years and she had been assigned to Charlotte Grimmer for 500 years and her boss still couldn’t remember her own replacement’s name "It's Gabby, ma’am!"-she answered still in disbelief
"Well Gabby, you better make yourself at home after all you are going to be alone for at least a month… There’s still something I need to do"-Charlotte chose her voice tone carefully since she knew that her Replacement would only obey their masters if they were kind but also firm at the same time.
"Yes, ma'am, gladly" Gabby answered. She then moved to the kitchen, planning her month ahead. “Maybe I should also redecorate the house. I absolutely hate the look of panelled pine wood. And the smell of that mold!! Holy Gods what a foul scent!!! ” She complained quietly.
"I was sure that I had a traveling gown and a pouch of gold in this trunk, but again I thought I had thrown it out." She thought to herself, rummaging through the old truck filled with empty old faded potion vials and moldy ingredients.
Finally after another 3 minutes she finally pulled an old unfashionable brown traveling gown and soon afterwards a small orange pouch.
"Ah here we are, it’s out of fashion but it still is very practical and comfortable! Now I'm ready to go. After 500 years I'll be returning home"-she stated in a tone of sadness mixed with a bit of anxiety-"Well I just hope that whatever is happening, isn’t serious."
"Goodbye ma'am and have a safe journey"-Gabby said emotionless outside of the house near a pond full of toads used by Charlotte in her potions. Charlotte was preparing her old chariot for the long journey.
"I hope to have one of those as well. You, please, try not to burn the house or get the attention of an angry mob again!"- With that she departed to her childhood home:
"The White Tower of Gerer"
