So I came back to this town just to bring back a bandits head for 500 gold even though they forgot to mention that he was a dragon befriending shaman whose dragon was called Durnehviir which is how I got this infernal mark on my hand which is black and burns like hellfire which is ironic really the shaman must have been muttering a transference spell to pass it on to me with his last dying breath well before I beheaded him that is.
"I assume this is the head of that bandit" the bounty clerk said he was wearing steel plated armour and a sigil on his chest which was fabric he was almost a foot taller than I am with brown hair and green eyes.
"We shall take this head to be identified as the bandit Urrag Broken-fang" he said while grabbing the sack containing 'bandits' head.
"You see that's the thing you forgot to mention that he's a dragon befriending shaman who sent his dragon to kill me after I got his head but that's not the only thing he left me with." I showed him the mark on my wrist.
"You do know that this mark is outlawed in the nine holds now don't you Elf" He said harshly while ordering his men to capture me.
However they were dealing with quite possibly the last High Elf who knew a unique fighting style one that has not been seen since the death of my people to Kraxus the Giantsbane the reason for his title is a long story (that will be explained at some point by the author hopefully)
The commander of the Order had me pinned to the ground and whacked me over the head the with something blunt... Probably the hilt of his blade. Coward was my last thought before everything faded to black.
Rolwin's P. O. V
I walked in to the HQ of the Order and saw two soldiers who were carrying an Elf who had the mark of the shadow on her wrist.
"I see you had an Elf problem... I presume it wasn't the first time you had to deal with the shadow warriors." I said to the leader of the Order whose name I forget now I think it was Horax or was it... Korax yeah that seems familiar.
"No it isn't my first rodeo dealing with this 'cult' nonsense however I'm amazed that they got an Elf of all the races it had to be an Elf now I don't mean to pry but what exactly brings you here so early?"
I placed an arm of the dwarf on his desk "you couldn't have at least brought him back here alive to be questioned?"
"Well it was either that or be blown up by his bombs or his boom stick or gun as they would probably call it" I said with an hint of annoyance in my tone.
"Which either way its one last member of the shadow at least"
"Yeah that's true so can I speak to the prisoner?"
"I suppose you can to find out what they're after I send two of my best men with you should you need them"
"Thanks but I can take care of these people by myself but I appreciate your concern" I said while brushing the hilt of my sword.
Soryn P. O. V
I awoke in the darkness of a cell I heard strange noises coming from outside my cell and in the corridor of the dungeon however they put me in a cell with another person great as if being stuck down here waiting to be executed wasn't bad enough.
"Hello there we seem to be stuck here together how precious" he said with a raspy voice like he hadn't drank water in like a month or so... He was also unhealthily skinny but I could question him if he does appear to be apart of the Shadow cult which could prove to be useful to me.
Rolwin P.O.V
I wanted to question the Elf about what she knows about a sacred artifact that is required to resurrect their Lord of Darkness and as a follower of the Prophetess I cannot and will not allow that to happen not while I live and breathe.
"Take me to her cell!" I ordered Lieutenant Wolfe who obeyed this command even though the route that we took is going to take a while I just hope that she doesn't try to escape or do something stupid.
***Meanwhile in the dungeon***
Soryn P.O.V
"You appear to bear the mark of the shadow my sister" he said his voice was seriously beginning to annoy me but I couldn't kill him not yet.
I thought about what I could say next very carefully but he did it for me without me having to ask. Well this is one good thing so far.
"So shadow sister did you find it?" he said excitedly but he could sense the confusion so I just asked "find what?"
"So you didn't get it or find the Sacred Blood amulet that contains the blood of a stone?"
"Where is the Sacred Amulet located?" I asked him however I may of just blown my cover I mean yeah I bare the mark but I'm still fighting this darkness like its some kind of poison which it might as well be.
"I don't understand you bear the mark you must know where it's located why else would you be here" he seemed to be heading into a downward spiral as he just kept repeating himself it was at that moment I tried to break him out of his trance.
"What do I need the Sacred Amulet for exactly?" I asked in hopes that I could get more answers from him.
"We need the Sacred Amulet to resurrect our Lord of Darkness Daegon the Eater of Worlds"
"I see" was all I could say as I didn't realise the shadow had this as a plan that thing could destroy everything in this world. I cannot let the Shadow get their grimy hands on any of the relics that will be required to resurrect this Demon.
"What other Relics will I need to resurrect our Lord?" I asked simultaneously however he didn't reply and almost as if he was talking to someone else he replied with "it shall be done... she won't stop us so I... will.........end her!"
Oh boy this could go badly for me and possibly him as I am still chained to the cell floor but despite that I still manage to dodge his attacks wait was that a knife I have to disarm him and quickly otherwise I could get seriously injured and I don't have any healing magic or know anyone who could heal me.
Anyway as I await his next attack I use my ability of foresight to see what his next attempt could be against me and I plan my course of action.
He lunges at me and knocks me down with his bone knife against my throat but I managed to kick him off of me but I couldn't see him any more or hear him at all it was at that moment that I realised that he had his knife against my throat.
A/N
Well that happened what do you think will happen will Rolwin save her, will she be critically injured or will she kill the follower of the Shadow without a single scratch on her type what you think in the comment section and we'll see if you are correct in the next part.So see you then.
