Families at war

Hurrom Family and Friskien Family are in a war, for centuries they have been fighting. Fighting for land, for fame, for glory, and love.

Master Mien Hurrom the head family of Hurrom. Lived on the earth for 59 years and still strong as a bear. Hard-headed but wise. Master in using the spear. With his army 300 strong at the front gate of Friskien Family's castle, getting ready for the siege.

Master Mien Friskien wearing his color black special armor, newly forge, with the crescent moon as insignia in the middle of it. He is waiting for the enemy to come to talk to him.

And Master Jhorn the head family of Friskien. A 55-year-old man. Undefeated in 1 on 1 duel. Wise and patient. Master in dual swords. His armor is passed down from many generations. Rose as the family's insignia is curved in the center of his armor.

With him 400 soldiers defending the castle. Ready to obey their Master, ready to die to defend their land.

But these two families have specialties. Hurrom Family marks for their impressive assassins. Expert in killing foes without a sound. They have a saying "Fight the army and you will lose many, Kill the Leader and the fight is over"

Friskien Family should not be underestimated in the arts of a bow. Hunters trained in harsh mountains to obtain the skill [Eagle Eye]. A skill that will slow downtime in short duration so they can perform a perfect shot. Sharpshooters when it comes to hunting. Beware of their arrows too, for they are poisonous and only the Friskien Family knows the antidote.

Master Mien shouted in front of the gate, "Jhorn! How long do you think will your castle protects you? Give me this land now and you can build another castle in the Dust Valley! I promise I will not harm anyone of your subjects if you will surrender peacefully." Master Mien said with a fake smile.

Master Jhorn standing in the top middle of the Gate with his face so serious while assessing the army of his enemy.

Master Jhorn shout to his army "Get ready men! And let's drove back this abomination in our land!"

"Woohh! woohh! The soldiers shouted. They draw their swords and they are now getting ready for battle.

Master Mien gets back to his soldiers and shouted "Prepare the Ram and attack!"

Hurrom family's soldiers prepare the ladders and the Ram.

"Sound the horn!" Captian Biel of Hurrom said to the horners ordering them to attack.

One stong blew of the horn and the soldiers heard it as a signal to attack. The soldiers rushed to attack the castle.

Hurrom soldiers are barbarians. Big and strong. Especially the Elites who are equipped with full armor, they are the ones that the enemy should fear. Forming in the front line attacked without fear.

Arches fired their arrows, flying from the Castle walls and the Hurrom's Soldiers raised their shields while they are running towards the castle. The ram was pushed by the soldiers to the gate while archers igniting their arrows and hitting the soldiers pulling the ram.

The soldiers with ladders also rushed to the walls, making their way through the flying arrows. When they have reached the walls and lean their ladders at the wall and they then climb. Some Friskien soldiers get stones to throwing and hit a few at the climbing enemies.

When the Ram reached the gate it pounded it. Back and forth the ram mercilessly damaging the gate. The sound of the ram hitting the Gate was so loud but the Friskien soldiers are standing still to defend. Slowly the Hurrom soldiers are getting an advantage in the battle slowly are getting inside the castle.

Master Jhorn ordered his soldiers to defend well the castle. His presence is boosting his soldiers' morale and they ran without hesitation. The gate is crumbling down. One more push and the Gate has fallen. Hurrom Soldiers rushed inside the castle. Friskien soldiers march on to defend the walls and some in front of the broken gate forming the defense.

Captain Tero of Friskein Family, wearing his shining armor and equipped with his greatsword, he shouted to his soldiers "Let's kill them all! No prisoners!" and he attacked the Hurrom soldiers at the gate.

The clashed was brutal. Soldiers to soldiers fighting with all their strength. Some are dismembered and some are instantly killed. The wounded rushed back to the camps for healing.

"Push harder, I want all of their soldiers to focus defending the Gate," Master Mien said to Captain Biel.

"Yes Master, I am glad that your plan is working," replied the Captain.

But Master Jhorn is not to be underestimated. He also has a plan of his own. Outside the Castle, the Hunters, eight of them are hiding in the east of Hurrom's army. They slowly moving slowly to Master Mien.

Captain Leu activated a Cycle [Hungering Arrow], one of the hardest Cycle of the Hunters firing a magically embued arrow that seek the enemy and dealing great damage to the target, his target is Master Mien.

"Nock! Aim! Fire!" Captain Leu said to his Hunters ambushing Master Mien and his guard at the right flank, they hit two of his guards.

Captain Leu's arrow flew straight to Master Mien, but it was easily blocked by his sword. Master Mien ordered his guard to attack the hunters hiding in the woods. Hunters shot at the soldiers killing a few of them and they engaged in close combat.

Two Families whose soldiers are well trained and hardened are so impressive to watch in the battle, their morales are high on both sides no one is willing to surrender.

Behind Master Mien, a man riding a horse covering his face with the hood, an assassin, comes near him and whispered. "Master, I am ready for your order"

"The distraction has begun, go now and do your job," said Master Mien.

The assassin named John. Best of all the assassins of Hurrom family can take the job done alone. Master of stealth and daggers he can kill his target alone or on guard.

John rode his horse in the forest, going at the back of the castle which is the least guarded by that time, to do his assassination job.

John then found the back gate, while riding he stands on his horse and leaps on the tree.

"Activate Cycle 432" John said while on the air, he blinked, and when he opened them the color of his eyes change to grey. He activated a Cycle [Blurred] making him hard to detect.

Jumping from tree to tree, when he reached the last tree near the wall he hides, he saw few guards patrolling.

There are two guards coming near him. John jumped and thrown his climbing rope with a dagger at the end. It hit the top of the wall and he runs upwards. He is fast, he draws his two daggers and on the right hand he stabs the guard at the neck, he then performs a sweep and on his left hand, he slit the throat of the other.

John dumped the body outside of the wall. He lockpicked the window and slowly entered the room.

While inside he heard the battle outside, the clashing of steels and shouting of fighting. But he doesn't mind because he has his mission, to kill his target.

John slowly opened the door and peek, then he saw a long corridor, no one is around. He stepped outside stealthily walked to his target's room. While walking he blew the candles out and the corridor becomes darker and darker.

And John finally standing at the front of his target's door. Holding his two silver daggers. Ready to kill. Ready to impress his master. But when his hand wanted to push the door a girl opened it.
