the blackguard company

chapter 1 the Would Be Mercenary

In a tavern of sorts empty accept for the bartender and the servers there are six men surrounding a table three on each side with two men wearing rugged wear talking face to face one man with a scar over his eye and another with a bandanna around his neck

"You have the stuff?" The bandanna man says

"Yeah....you got the coin?" The scarred man says and the bandanna man nods and throws the bag of coin onto the table and the scar faced man look at his men and they nod and shows a box case full of guns and ammo. Before the trade could be finished the doors leading outside open up showing a figure of a man coming inside infront of the mid day sunshine

"You all at the table I'm here to collect" the figure at the door says

"And who are you?" The scarred man says as the six face towrds the figure standing up getting ready for a fight

"My name is Kurt Urlwis also known as the ashen wolf" Kurt says stepping in standing valiantly and couragous showing his futures a young average sized man in his mid-twenties with a platinum blonde a faded mohawk haircut,gray colored eyes,dressed in white clothes that seem ruggid and more for outdoors of a hooded duster coat that reaches down to his knees his legs covered in black slacks and boots to match,donned with a cloth cape that is pure gray with a huge outline of a wolf paw with claws,equipped with a set of chain mail on him,with a huge greatsword on his back designed with a stainless steel blade with a silver hilt designed like two wolf heads bearing its fangs on both sides one head with light blue eyes the other side with orange eyes and the butt of the handle with a metal spike of sorts shaped like a fang,by the larger greatsword is a longsword rugged and worn as if it tell you vast stories of wars it has seen. The six bandits look at him and then look at each other confused

"You know the wolf mercenary of Tamrisil?.....the hunter of Marrons streets??" He asks but the six shrug and Kurt sighs dissapointed "whatever that doesn't matter now whats important is that im here for the cash you stole" he says pointing at the bandanna wearing man

"I thought you said no one followed you here??" The scarred man says looking at the bandanna wearing man

"I did i thought you said no one followed you???" the bandanna man says

"Don't you put this on me!" The scarred man says yelling at the bandanna man and they start arguing amongst each other but kurt sighs then notice the bandits all focused on each other and then kurt sees the bag of coins and sneaks off towrds it as there busy and then easily swipes the bag away and sneaks away out the door of the tavern silently out into the city. Kurt hetting around into a allyway sighs then looks at the gold bag thinking on it

"Theres about five hundred gold here.....i could take it and run but then i look like a crook...." Kurt says looking at the bag thinking and smiles "well i doubt this guy would even see me Marrons a big city plus hes only paying me in a few coppers that cheapskate" he adds and puts the large gold pouch to his side and walks off into the street looking up to the castle in the distnce. "Marron the capital of Tamrisil and the shining beacon of the country....pfft yeah right" Kurt thinks to himself "unless your a shop owner your probably affiliated with those stuck up azure blade soldiers led by that prick general" he adds "sure it ain't to easy being a self employed merc but atleast i don't have anyone breathing down my neck" Kurt says walking through the streets. "though that last job sucked badly sure i got a good load of coin that i will probably blow through fairly quickly i doubt they will remember my name or my nickname" kurt thinks deeply on it. As kurts walking through the capital streets he comes across some guards and they look at him intrigued

"You there" the guard speaks out and kurt stops

"Shit does he know the money isn't mine or does he know me from somewhere" Kurt says in his head kinda panicking as the guards start to walk to him "is something the matter my sirs?" Kurt says turning around
