A story, which story? part 1 - the journey

The young mans life changed drastically when his godparents died in an attempt of the government to cover up one of it's mistakes. Both his parents had died when he was very young and he lived with is godparents and worked for them in the furthest reaches of the kingdom, by mere chance he was not home when the couple was brutally murdered and from then he was on his own and incidentally carrying the secret his godparents were murdered for.

Not knowing exactly what he is carrying he runs into an old hermit who turns out to be more than he looks and they embark on a journey that will take them through the worlds and lets them soar the heavens. They hire a lonely pirate to take them to a place where they are promised to find help, but when they arrive they find only ruins and soon they find themselves trapped in a fortress of doom where the evil dark wizard rules.

While attempting to escape the fortress they discover that the beautiful princess it held captive there and while the old hermit, whose name is for obvious reasons unpronounceable, meets his fate facing the dark wizard, for the hermit is also a wizard, the young man convinces the lonely pirate to help him free the beautiful princess. And as they finally leave the fortress behind them the young man sees his new friend and mentor die at the hands of the dark wizard.
