The silent Assassin

Swish...!!

People suddenly felt something moving about but couldn't see any figure. Some started looking here and there in search of clues of what it was. They were hoping it would be some sort of treasure that would allow them to enter the battlefield of the land of Dawn. Never did they knew that it was an assassin that was moving steathily.

In the tarven nearby, someone who was a bit informed about the Land of Dawn was laughing heartly while having his drink and saying, "Haha...!!! Someone bites the dust again. Why are there so many idiots around? And the number keeps on increasing. Do they think that they can easily earn the right to enter the battlefield? Why can't they be like this Nox, I who have been staying here since the creation of dawn and watch the heroes battle out each other."

Listening to his shameless boasting about how he was there since the beginning, some people couldn't refrain themselves from rolling their eyes. But some were curious and asked, "Why do you say someone is going to bite the dust?" To which he replied, "Let this Nox tell you a story. A story of an assassin that only a few have known and even fewer have seen."

"You all know the noble house of Vance that has this area under their control right? It is said that there is an excellent assassin, who has never missed, protecting the house of Vance. Even more so, it is said that heir of the house is under the protection of that assassin. Still the assassin won't run away from her duties to the land of Dawn...!"

At this point, the storyteller became a little absent minded and the listeners became dazed. But suddenly, they broke out of the trance when they heard a shrill cry.

"Sigh...!" The storyteller sighed. "Wish I had such beautiful assassin protecting me."

Hearing this people started rolling their eyes and said, "How can you be so shameless, you fasto. It would be amazing if a girl looked at you."

He didn't care what people were saying and continued, "Red hair braided down to her waist, an eye patch and wearing a skintight uniform, donning a sniper and killing steathily, looking just like a general of an army. Oh Lesley...! I wish you'd protect me like this....!"

He was lost in his own world and didn't realize that a commotion was breaking down just outside the tarven.
