Description
It was a mild summer night three years ago this night, I had just finished doing reconnaissance on a hydras lair.

At the time, I was a lowly scout, with no family left, under the orders of my superiors to find a hidden hydras lair and do reconnaissance to plan for a strategic attack.

I was lucky to find the lair and was able to find a hidden spot for me to do some scouting.

Moments have passed and I had enough details to successfully plan a strategy that will win us a victory over the forces of darkness. Among my reconnaissance, I have also discovered a horrifying detail about the base. Which is why it is imperative that I make it back to the guild post haste.

I rode on my horse down a dirt road as fast as it could. The trees flew past me and the wind was blowing in my face. I was going rather fast but I could not help but feel as though someone or something was following me.

It was then that I hear the ominous noise of something chasing me from behind. I looked over my shoulder, and there chasing me just a few yards away from me was a lone hydras minion riding a reptilian beast chasing after me like a predator hunting his prey.

I turned back to my steed and double timed it to leave my pursuer in the dust. Both my steed and the hydras’ hellish beast sped through the forest like a dangerous derby race.

The hydras minion came within inches of me and pounced on me causing both it and myself to tumble over the side of the cliff.

After some bumps and scraps, I made to the bottom of the cliff hang with minor injuries. Unfortunately, my enemy had been lucky as well for it picked itself up without a single scratch.

He then brandished a horrific weapon. It was like a butcher’s knife with serrated blades rusted from what I assume were his previous victims.

I scrambled up to my feet and armed myself with my weapon. We then engaged in a duel and swung our weapons at each other’s blade.

Despite my swordsmanship and skill, the hydras minion had some enhancements that were capable of overpowering normal combatants.

I was able to lands a blow by skewering it with my sword but the villain refused to give up and surprised me as he pushed forward. He got too close to me, grabbing me by the neck, it pinned me to a tree.

He rose his weapon up and readies to strike me down. I feared that this would be the end. However, as the enemy was heading to strike me, a knight clad in ebony armor came out from nowhere and sliced the enemy’s arm off, and freeing me from its grip.

The enemy charged at the ebony knight with weapon in hand but the knight took his sword and, with a swift thrust, slain the enemy with not a sound uttered.

The enemy fell down to the ground dead and the ebony knight rested his weapon in its scabbard. He then approached me as I was regaining my strength.

“Young knave, what brings the likes of you out here facing such a dangerous foe?” the ebony knight inquired.

I told him that I was merely traveling back to my guild and that I must return immediately. I was heading to the rock wall where I fell and started to climb to retrieve my horse.

But the ebony knight stopped me before I got close. “I fear that your horse did not have the fortitude to survive. I witnessed that foe’s beast devouring your steed and so I avenged it by staining it with haste. I’m sorry.” the knight said grimly.

My eyes filled up with tears as his words reached my ears. I did not want to believe it but my heart fears that what he spoke of was true.

The knight placed his hand on my shoulder. “I have a horse ready for us to take your back to your guild. Please, allow me to offer you a ride.” he offered gently.

I took up his offer and we made our way in the direction of his ride. After a few minutes of walking, in the distance, I saw a black stallion with a saddle. As we got closer, I noticed the symbol imbued on the saddle’s leather. It was of an eagle or a hawk and a shield, the same logo as my guild!

I kept this revelation in my mind as I climbed on the stallion. We made haste as the knight’s stallion gained unnatural speed. In a short time, we made it clear out of the forest and into the clearing with moonlight greeting us. I glanced over my shoulder and looked in grief as the forest where my steed laid down to rest disappeared in the distance.

It was a while before we arrived back at my guild. The knight and I dismounted from the stallion. I thanked my rescuer for his help, however, I asked what his name was and how he came by the saddle with my guild’s logo.

He turned to me and stared quietly at me, I felt a chill down my spine: he then took his helmet off and revealed his face to me.

His face had a strong and stoic look, the kind of which was forged by long years of battle and hardship, and an eyepatch covering his left eye.

“My name is Nickoli Fury, and I am the head knight of our guild” he answered. Upon this revelation, I nearly fell to my knees for I have heard many tales of one Nickoli Fury.

“So then knave, what news do you have regarding your reconnaissance on the hydras lair?” he questioned.

I gained my composure and relayed my findings to sir Fury. He processed my findings and looked me in the eyes.

“Good reconnaissance, knave. This task with the hydras will not be easy. Which is why I have a special mission for you should you choose to accept it.”

I gave it no thought when I accepted because of everything I have lost to those hydras. Impressed by my quick acceptance, he gave me a pendant with the guild logo.

“Congratulations, knave, you have been promoted. This mission you are about to partake is of the utmost importance.” Sir Fury said as he takes his saddle off his steed and placed it off to the side. “I’m putting together a team of knights to rid the realm of hydras and their corrupt influence. There’s a knight named Sir Brodgers who is said to have experience when it came to Hyrdas. Get some sleep and be ready for your journey in the morning.” Sir fury then opened the guild doors and turned to me before he enters. “Good luck, squire.”

He closes the door behind him, leaving me by myself. I looked to the moon and stars deep in thought. I don’t know what adventures lie in store for me but I knew that this was the beginning of a long odyssey.

I want to thank all of my followers for their support and for newcomers who like the posts. I will be doing a few avenger themed posts and will have some more houkai 3rd impact posts. I would also like to wish anyone who celebrates the holiday a Happy Easter.🐇🐣🐰. For everyone else I hope you enjoy the spring weather. 🙂
