Lord of the Oasis

Bags of salt, spices and sugar stacked from inside the shop all the way out into the streets. Merchants loaded with goods going flooded the streets with their carriages. The air was filled with fragrances emanating from all manner of spices. It was a prosperous, lively city at the side of the oasis. Sounds of metals being hammered and threads being woven were heard all over the place, as smiths and craftsmen were busy at work in their respective workshops. The banner of the successor of the Kingdom of Swadia—Baron Kant—was hanging on the city gates. The citizens lived peaceful, happy lives, revering their lord from the bottom of their hearts. Soldiers on the city walls armed with crossbows stood guard over the city, and footmen wearing mail armor patrolled the streets. The place was one of peace and security.

"Do you know why we want to take you to the island?"Kant looked at Raphael and asked.

"Yes."Raphael lowered his eyes and said, "You want me to find the hidden forces on the island for you."

When Kant heard Raphael's answer, he was silent for a moment before he said, "Then will you do this for us?"

Raphael fell into silence. He did not answer Kant's question. Instead, he asked, "If I don't agree, will you let me go?"

"No,"Kant denied with a poker face. "We will use you as bait. We will do everything we can to lure out the leader of the forces who issued the order to kill you."

Raphael raised his head and met Kant's gaze. His eyes were filled with despair. He closed his eyes and asked, "Then why are you talking to me about this?"

"Because I want to give you a chance to make a choice,"Kant said. "Do you want to carry the lives of others on your shoulders, or do you want to use your blood-stained hands to atone for your sins?"
