Garroth's P.O.V

I was woke up by the sound of knocking on my door. It was my butler, Toru.

"S-si-sire." Toru stuttered.

"Call me Garroth, Toru." I said.

"Garroth your father died in the middle of the night." Toru said sadly.

"What?" I yelled at the thought.

"They have to make Zane lord today or we're vulnerable to Scalewind." Toru said as I started to close my door.

I slammed my door in his face and locked it. I looked out my window and saw smoke in the woods. I got dressed, grabbed my sword, and went out to investigate.

My P.O.V

When I got to my hut, I started a fire like every time I returned. I took off my assassin clothes and put on the ones my mother made me. I took my hood off. I looked in my mirror, I could see my L/S H/C hair and E/C.

(It's been ages since I last saw my hair and eyes)

As I went to add more wood to the fire, there was a knock at the door. I opened it to see him.

" You did well. Everyone thought that Marinelle accidently gave him an overdose. I would like to know what you used to kill him." He said.

"I do not reveal my secrets unless I'm paid twice the amount I was supposed to." I told him.

He through me two full satchets of gold.

"Now tell me what you used." He said.

"I used a single drop of Yiatone." I said happy with the payment.

"But how did you get your hands on that?" He asked.

"I promised not to tell." I replied.

"Fine ." He said.

"Hey if you need me again just touch this." I said as I threw him a communication amulet.

He put it around his neck and said goodbye. I closed the door behind him and sat down. I slowly drifted off to sleep.
