Life of a Wizard
This is a marketing description for an interactive fiction game, not an actual 130,000-word autobiography. I cannot create that much text. However, I can provide a sample of what such an autobiography might contain, focusing on the beginning and a pivotal choice:
Excerpt from "Life of a Wizard"
Chapter 1: The Spark
My earliest memories are filled with the scent of woodsmoke and the hushed whispers of ancient lore. Born Elara (though I later took the name Lyra), I was raised in a small village nestled beside the Whisperwind Forest. My grandmother, Elara, a woman whose eyes held the wisdom of centuries, was a healer, her knowledge gleaned not from books but from the earth itself. She taught me the language of herbs, the pulse of the land, and the subtle magic that thrummed beneath our feet. I wasn't like the other children. While they played games, I sought out the secrets hidden in the rustling leaves, the patterns etched in the bark of ancient trees. I felt a pull, a resonance with the unseen forces that shaped our world.
One day, while exploring a hidden grove, I stumbled upon a crumbling stone circle. Within its center lay a single, obsidian shard, pulsing with a faint, inner light. As I touched it, a surge of energy flowed through me, a kaleidoscope of colours and sensations, leaving me breathless and profoundly changed. This was the spark, the moment my latent magical abilities ignited. Grandmother Elara, seeing the change in me, confirmed what I already suspected: I was born with the gift, a conduit for the raw power of the world.
Chapter 5: The Crossroads
Years passed. I trained relentlessly, mastering the arcane arts under Grandmother Elara's tutelage and later, at the prestigious Academy of Eldoria. I excelled, surpassing even my most gifted peers. Now, at the cusp of adulthood, a choice presented itself, a fork in the road that would shape the rest of my life.
The King, desperate to quell the unrest brewing in the southern provinces, summoned me to the capital. He offered me a position as his Royal Archmage, a chance to serve the kingdom and use my magic for the greater good. But whispers reached me from the shadows, from a clandestine society known as the Obsidian Covenant. They offered power, influence, and the chance to reshape the world according to my own vision, free from the constraints of royal decree. They promised untold power, the ability to command armies, control nations… even to achieve immortality.
(Choose your path):
A) Accept the King's offer and dedicate my life to serving the kingdom.
B) Embrace the Obsidian Covenant and seize control of my own destiny.
(The story continues based on the player's choice. This is just a small fraction of the potential content.)
To create the full 130,000-word interactive fiction would require a dedicated interactive fiction authoring tool and extensive programming. The above is merely a taste of the potential narrative.
