The Warriors Path Part 4

Meanwhile on another continent, a council meeting is being held in a large room, surround by hundreds upon hundreds of candles, eleven people, shrouded in black, hoods pulled up, hiding their faces, sitting around a silver, smooth, circular table.
One said “He has been found”
Another said “Where is his location?”
A third replied “In Sleepywood, he has been taken in by a resident Cleric and has no memory”
“Is the team ready?” Said the first figure
“Yes” Answered a fourth “We’ve hired a mercenary team to kill or capture him, whichever is easiest or comes first”
There is a general nod of agreement around the table.
A fifth person stood up “Can they be trusted? Will they succeed?”
“Probably not” replies the first “but they can be eliminated easily, should they give us any trouble”
The one standing turns to the first “Will they succeed?” he asks again.
“They should” says a sixth “if he has no memory then they should easily defeat him in combat”
The one standing was not satisfied by this answer.
“If you are worried about him truly awakening then one of us will have to deal with him personally” says a seventh.
There was a general mutter of agreement around the table and the one standing, sits back down, visibly annoyed.
“Then it will be decided, should the mercenary team fail, who will go to detain or eliminate him at the next meeting, and on that note, this concludes this council meeting” read more

The girl closed the journal and looked over at the boy she’d found, unconscious, outside the entrance to the Sleepywood dungeon, she looks over to where he’s been lain down in bed. He’s about 6 ft, with medium length, brown hair; his face is dirty and unshaven and his body is surprisingly clear of cuts and bruises, even though she had found him half dead with blood seeping out of every possible gap of the chain mail suit he wore. That very same suit was hanging next to him, now rid of blood and rust after she had thoroughly cleaned it. She sighed, the girl was roughly 5 and a half feet tall with long auburn hair and dark eyes to match she wore a bathrobe after just after having a bath earlier to get rid of the stains on her skin from cleaning him and his armour. read more
