In the forest, an elf hides behind a toppled over tree prepared to shoot a single an arrow from his bow. He holds his breath and takes his shot sinking his arrow into the deer's eye instantly killing it. "Got it," He whispers "now I can finally eat." He pulls out his dagger and carves out fresh meat. "This should last about a day or two."
Suddenly something knocks him down. He looks up, he sees an orc with his club over his shoulder staring down at him. His club was winded up to strike upon the elf. Out of nowhere a rush of fire hits the orc "KURG!" He gags and stumbles over with a thud. "Alright get up."
A shadowy figure appears above the elf and picks him up. "Come on follow me." He says. The elvish man walks along side the red cloaked figure "Your name?" He says "What?" The elvish man asks "I saved your life and I think I deserve some questions and answers. Now then what is your name?" The man faces towards him as he sees his red eyes and the scar across his left. "Lance, my name is Lance." The elvish man says "Alicard is mine" the cloaked man immediately says. "So," Alicard says "which one?" "Ariendel." Lance claims. Alicard snickers, "What's so funny?" Lance snaps back at him "Well I'm not to judge but it's the first time I've ever heard of Ariendel thief." Alicard claims. Lance's eyes widen "oh please it's quite obvious by how you look, I could've spotted you a mile away. Regardless I am of Kendrath."
The two continue on to a small town. "Whelp here we are, Gremlock, my town" Alicard claims proudly. "But aren't you of Kendrath, why wouldn't you live in Kendrath territory?" Lance asks in confusion. "The Azawrath folk are of good nature, and quite frankly it was the closest place to go since the mysterious burning of my village" Alicard sighs out of tiredness. "I assume you'd want some kind of gold as reward." Lance asks in a sickened manner. "No, you see I already have what I need for now I only collect gold,I don't ask for it."Alicard says as Lance runs off with a small pouch into the city "Oh well I didn't have much in it anyway. I wonder if Stryker is back from her mercenary work?" Alicard says nonchalantly as he walks into the city.
