Nicolas and I are traveling through the Forrest heading to greywall. Nicolas doesn't look so well.
Leonidas: are you alright?
Nicolas: I'm just starving.
Leonidas: alright I'll go find some food.
I tell him to stay there and i head out to find some food. After awhile i find some berries which i smell no poison in. So i pick the berries and walk back to Nicolas. All of a sudden i hear Nicolas screaming. I run as fast i can back to Nicolas. When i got there Nicolas runs behind me and there's this guy with white hair and an eye patch. He's with 2 guys similar to the guys that was after Nicolas.
Leonidas: WHO ARE YOU GUYS!?
Eros: Eros is my name. That's my son you have behind you. Now give him back.
Leonidas: he looks nothing like you!
Eros: it's my adoptive son.
Leonidas: it's?
Eros: yeah he's entirely artificial. I used magic to make him and in doing so my hair turned white.
Leonidas: why should i believe you!
Eros: it doesn't matter what you think. He's my son and you will return it.
Leonidas: you will not touch him.
Eros: i wasn't asking. Go fetch it.
The 2 men draw their swords and i draw mine. One man goes for a thrust and i parry it. The other goes for a overhead swing and i block it with my shield. One man goes for an underhand cut but i sidestep to dodge it and i stab him then he dies. The other guy tackles me to the ground knocking sword out of hand. I try hitting him with my shield but he blocked and ripped the shield from my grip and threw it away. He goes to stab me but i block and try to hold the sword back. He's much stronger than he looks and drives the sword into my shoulder. I scream in agony and the beast awakens. I put my palm on his top jaw and wrap my fingers on the bottom one. I begin to separate the jaws breaking them and rip the cheeks apart. The blood pours all over my face but my enemy is dead. Eros runs away like the cowards he is. I check on Nicolas but he's trembling up against the tree.
Leonidas: I'm sorry you had to see that but good news.
I give him the berries and he eats them. I embrace him for a bit. No kid should see this artificial or not.
