The Day Wizard

THE DAY WIZARD: The measure of other wizards is he, but seven of them have met and decided to take him down, for he is the limit measure of how foul their folly of wizardry can go. The Day Wizard carries a staff while the seven dissenting wizards carry wands. But the top of the staff of the Day Wizard's staff, carries a round ball of brightness that has the coloration of the sun. While the seven dissenting wizards carry only wands to do their deeds of whatever kind; but on one day within any year as on Halloween Day can they, the seven wizards, as well as any other wizard, go about and do their full extent of will that they choose to exert without having the magical Day Wizard's staff to spontaneously react, in locating them, and then snuff any unreasonable will of theirs out. On this day though, the seven wizards as a group has sent by way of a messenger an invitation to The Day Wizard to meet them at a particular spot as they have indicated in their invitation that on Halloween Day they plan to pay homage to The Day Wizard at the noon hour. The Day Wizard accepts the invitation and shows up on Halloween Day, but at noon the seven wizards raise their wands up in the air and turn the daylight into complete darkness while also cloaking themselves into even more darkness. They approach The Day Wizard and subdue him and take his staff and then break it up into seven pieces, with each of the seven wizards getting a piece of it while the ball of light that is bright fizzles out as well. The Day Wizard goes back his way and returns to his shadowy dwelling with nothing to show for his leave. As the days go by, The Day Wizard notices that the fireflies that are normally flickering around are getting increasingly directional for some reason which also is quite intimidating to him. But The Day Wizard takes heed anyhow, and follows the path that the fireflies have now made. The path leads The Day Wizard to each of the seven wizards and, once, there the fireflies make a ball of light so bright that none of the visited wizards can get a glimpse of the approaching and encroaching Day Wizard. The Day Wizard grabs each visited wizard's wand, and finally returns to his shadowy dwelling in the forest. The Day Wizard then takes the seven wands and fashions a call to his elusive and broken-up staff; the pieces respond, arrives, and appears in their original functioning whole form and state. The Day Wizard never knew it but his sorceress mother, soon after he was born, had spelled the local brood of fireflies so that no matter what, he would never be completely alone in the shadows; even though he alone was born completely in the shadows.
