Was it really her? His eyes strained to pierce through the darkness. Though his men assured him it was her, he wouldn’t believe it until he could see her up close. He watched anxiously from afar as the figure surrendered herself at the gate. Captain Vol and his men had stood watch at the gate to the palace of Ragan for many years but, if this were really her, Raveena, the greatest warrior in the realm, the fiercest asset of their arch-rival Typhorians, then this was a night to stand above all others. Her cloak covered her face, but still, as she approached in the custody of his guards, the captain became more and more confident that it was truly her. Why? Why would the cruelest, most vile killer in the realm, his sworn enemy, surrender herself? Even though he recognized her by her lithe frame, the Typhorian crest worn proudly on the clasp of her hood, and the unmistakable hilt of her famous sword, Deathraken, which had cut down so many of their greatest warriors, he still waited, breathless, for her to reveal herself so he could know for sure. She held her hands up in a gesture of peace as she drew close to him. Once she was within twenty paces of him, the captain ordered her to stop. Obviously, he could allow her to go no further until she was disarmed. Perhaps, he thought to himself, he’d already allowed her to come too far. He didn’t doubt his own fighting prowess, or the skills of his men, yet still, the reputation that Raveena had earned on the battlefield was unparalleled. No, he reassured himself, if this were a brash assassination attempt on King Resnos it was ill-conceived. Even she couldn’t best all of the king’s guards, storm the palace, and kill the king alone, but she was of such skill that only a fool would have allowed her within one hundred paces of the king with a weapon. The captain instructed his men to block her entry, and they obliged, though they held their ground before her with shaky hands. The captain cleared his throat, and then addressed her.MoreLess
