I will tell you a short story. Story about Stalith Memistrosphi, but her friends called her "Inka". Inka is known, because she killed Nelti Uprilbatow, Freak Consort Of Twiliht. Stalith was born in Nirana, "Necroquiet", one of 4 great cities. Her parents are unknow, she was only a peasant, found by guards as a baby. She spend her early years with Atthem Cunningclose, priest of The Heavenly Sect, but Stalith doesn't liked him, in fact, he has been found dead in forest, stabed into abdomen many times by large copper dagger. Everybody are still thinking it was a kobold...
She has been adopted by local castle guards. They was training her for years, she was competent Swordswoman when she appied to stay local lady hearthperson. Sadly, Stalith was not respected in her town after Atthem accident and because of rumors about his relation to her...
She has been send to kill Freak Consort Of Twilight, Nelthi Uprilbatow to prove her value. She agreed, but she was unwillig to kill. Stalith was thinking, she can just convince Nelthi to come back to society. In fact, Stalith doesn't know what she meet in Tocnuura Gorbe Lomoth, "Ghostdied the Shade of Tombs" on Totonslexsmul, "The noiseless Swamp".
When she was heading to Tocnuura, she found Etrukara, "Earthenheat", camp belongs to "The Present Sounds". She was scared to show herself, she just sneaked in on ground and checked bags, then stole iron pick and iron helmet. In fact, it was intresting choice.
When she arrived to her target, there was stars on the sky. She heard a lot of stories about bogeyman, she first time heard They cackling. She was sure it was bogeymans, but if not bogeymans... She doesn't even wanted thinking about it. She found entrance to cave, she came inside really slowly... She lightly push the door and doesn't not spoted anybody inside. She lay on goround and was slowly crawling into cave. She was suprised when she reached end of cavern and there was nothing. Literaly noting, not even spiders or vermings. She checked again whole cave, nothing. There was dark outside, she was scared by strange voices from woods, so she closed the door and lay in deepest cornel of cave... after a short while she fall asleep.
When she waked up, she not even think to check if she is still alone, she was sure she was... but... Stalith pale blue eyes was looking at large scaly humanoid. Humanoid has two short tails and bloated body, covered by charcoal, large, overlapping scales. Humanoid was furiously staring her glow fuschia eyes on bronze scimitar, straped to Stalith upper body. She her weapon as fast, as she was able, and without even thinking a second, she just stabed monster into chest and jumped out. She hit monster into hearth, a lot of blood was leaking from hole in scales.
Monster charged at Stalith, but Staliths muscles was remember moves trained by years in castle, swing and jump out, swing and jump out. One of the last swings severed away monsters body, other splitted humanids guts, but Stalith was unscratched. After a desperate fight, a lot of alteires belongs to Nelti Uprilbatow, Freak Consort Of Twilight has ben cut and... this night creature has bled to death...
This is only first Stalith adventure, and i have hope, last one, because i think it will be enough for her to stay heartperson.
