When the assassins meet

by WastelandRoamer

The 2 assassins receive task and a contract that they have to fulfil. They have the same target and interfere with each others duties. What will the outcome of this quest look like for them? I am back to writing once again. I appreciate any sort of feedback (if you can please list grammatical and spelling errors, english isn't my first language). Have fun reading.

1. Chapter 1

She was finally ready for a mission. She would finally prove herself worthy of serving the Veiled Sisters. Mortred finally finished training herself and mastering her blade and her daggers. The skill of assassination had been sharpened by years of hard training until it reached perfection. Several years passed until the young assassin was ready for the first order of the Veiled Sisters.

With a seriously aimed mind she had left to the great hall to receive the target name and location. She had prepared her gear in advance to move out straight after receiving the task description. She had opened the massive dark wooden doors of the hall. The hall was massive and was poorly lit. The floor was made of green marble than shined and made it slightly easier to see inside. The room also had great pillars with several patterns engraved on them. Beside the walls stood beautiful showcases with ancient weapons and armor. The air was moist and cool. The room produced no sounds or motions inside it. Mortred walked deeper into the hall of mysteries. The doors behind her closed with a loud thud. She paid no attention to it, as she knew the Sisters wouldn't harm her. When she walked deep enough, she spotted 3 thrones. Each throne had a carved statue. Each presented a different sister. Though they all looked the same, they had different roles. When she got close enough, she knelt down and waited. After a brief moment, a pillar came out of the ground very slowly. It was bright red and transparent. It had patterns of snakes, skulls and many other unique engraved outlines. When it finally came in full shape the pillar held a small scroll. She carefully pulled the scroll out and unrolled it. It had the target name and the location written in blood. The target was a satire. He was a lost child of a noble family who now became an assassin seeking revenge. He was expected to be seen in the east of Darkwood Forests. The target must be eliminated. If required any witnesses must be killed.

The task was straightforward and would not challenge the assassin or so she thought.

"Hah, it's just an animal! What kind of challenge does this posses against my trained power?"

With this gained confidence, she gathered her items and left the temple of the Veiled Sisters who have been watching over her. She couldn't fail because that would result in her execution. Failure isn't an option.
