Paramour

Sounds of battle and bloodshed filled the air in an unsuspecting castle. lord Kayryn gazed out the tower window. He saw what he thought could only be a nightare, his home and his loyal friends falling before the monster he once called father. The siege had reached the inner palace and he paled frozen in horror . A scream sounded within the corridor. He rushed to the nursery where his newborn daughter slept. He burst through the door and saw his worst fear, his wife Lady Asana raise a dagger to a dark figure looking over her and blocked the crib of the swaddled infant. He leapted to aid her but it wasd too late. The shadowy figure grabbed the lady Asana by the throat though she plunged her blade into his stomach it did nothing to stop him. He crushed the air from her lungs. The Lord of the castle watched as his wife crumpled to the floor. A white hot tear fell from his eye. Righteous fury filled the air and he grabbed his sword and slashed across the assassins back. The lithe black figure ripped Asana's dagger from his body and turned toward Kayryn.

"This is the night your family and your lands join the dead." Spoke the figure in a voice that resembled gravel being ground together.

"Come with it then." Said Kayryn. They spun,kicked,and swung their blades for what seemed like an eternity. While Kayryn was a strong sturdy man with the skill a nobleman should have he was no match for the slim cloaked figure. The assassin moved with reflexes and grace akin to a cat. When finally the assassin's blade struck true and sunk into the Lord's chest he spoke somberly.

"Why? What wrongs has my family done?" He said choking back blood.though with the assassin's hood raised he saw nothing Kayryn would swear on the river Styx he smiled

"None, none at all." Spoke the assassin grimly.
