Sparks of black form circling around each other speeding up until they evaporate and a hooded figure appears in the middle.
Nothing but silence follows as the figure walks to the edge of the cliff to get a birds eye view.
Forests go on as far as the eye can see however a small village is in the centre of it all.
The figure opens their arms and takes a good deep breath
Then they jump.*Meanwhile at a small village known as Greycott*
Sadie:MIKE ARE YOU GOING YET??
Mike:In a sec!!

Sadie:Always waiting until the last minute Huh?

Sadie:And be carful I heard there's more goblins in the area
Mike:Of course the guilds getting more lazy...yknow they need someone that can actually get some work done
Sadie:I know but I sa-

Mike goes out the door and makes his way to the town entrance gate where he is greeted by a guard.
Leth:Ah mike! Good day!
Mike:Leth! How's guard duty going?
Leth:Oh yknow the usual...and what about you?
Mike:Oh I'm just going apple picking for my wife,shes making us some apple pie tonight.
Leth:Ah Sadies apple pie...well I don't want to keep you, you can go through.
Mike:Thanks Leth you can come over tonight for dinner if you want we'll save you a slice.
Leth:Nah I'm gonna put in a couple more hours today I've been saving some coin for the kids back at home, Zephs birthday's coming up soon and I want to throw a good celebration for him.
Mike:Ah I see,he's turning 10 now right? They grow up so fast...
Leth:Yea and get this he wants to learn how to wield a sword for his birthday I mean the boys only 10 *laughs* I guess he wants to be just like his father.
Mike:I think you should teach him how to wield a sword properly it's good to learn how to defend yourself at a young age.
Leth:I suppose...but with the recent goblin attacks in the area I've been so busy not to mention I'm already working more shifts to save up coin for his birthday.
Mike:Well why don't you hire a proper swordsman to train him?
Leth:I suppose...yea I think I might just do that I just need to find the right kind of trainer someone who's very skilled with a sword yknow?
Mike:Well I wouldn't think much of it right now his birthday is weeks away
Leth:Yea...alright Mike you should be on your way now
