Agents of the Inquisition
Skyhold Fortress
"So what do you think the inquisitor wants with us?" Collins asked the mercenary with the half burnt face that sat next to him on a set of crates in a disused room of Skyhold, the headquarters of the Inquisition. The fortress was still in need of repairs from centuries of degradation and this room made it evident. The stone bricks are weatherworn and the roof was held up by wooden support beams. There was also a termite eaten long table in the center of the room and only two entrances allowed entrance to the room, each on opposite ends.
"Hell if I know," The mercenary replied absently, his attention focused on the sword in his hands as he ran an oilstone along the blade. Collins turned his attention to the rest of the few dozen individuals in the room, most where fairly generic in appearance, but a few stood out, such as a dwarf with a giant battle axe, a lithe female elf, and was that a Qunari?
"Osmond,"
"What?" Collins asked as the battle scarred mercenary got his attention.
"M'names Osmond, figured ya might wanna know," The mercenary apparently named Osmond elaborated; still focusing on his sword.
"My name's Collins," the young lad responded as he held out his hand. Just when he thought that Osmond wasn't going to reply in kind, the mercenary gripped his hand and shook it.
"What's ya story, kid," Osmond questioned, finally drawing his attention away from his sword and looked Collins with his one eye.
"Nothing special, just a third son of a minor Fereldan Bann, off for adventure, figure fighting demons would be more exciting then what my father had planned for me," Collins admitted truthfully. Osmond simply chuckled, "What's so funny?"
"Ya still have the fog on ya," Osmond replied.
"What does that mean?" Collins was only more confused.
"The fog o' innocence kid," Osmond explained, "Ya got a romanticized view on adventure, exciting sure it may be, but dangerous ta boot," Collins looked at the burnt side of Osmond's face, finding his words to ring true.
"If I could have your attention please," A feminine voice thick with the Orlesian accent rose above the general hum of the audience gathered. Collins and Osmond turned their gaze along with everyone else to see the Inquisition's spy master Leliana alongside Commander Cullen, head of the Inquisition's armed forces, "I assume you are all wondering why I have summoned you here, the Inquisitor has appointed me and Commander Cullen to oversee a new approach to spread our influence across Thedas,"
Murmuring started to spread among the audience until Cullen cleared his throat to regain everyone's attention. The commander then spoke up, "You have been handpicked by the inquisitor for your exceptional skills at what you do and your dedication to our cause, so you have been reassigned as proper Agents of the Inquisition,"
Leliana then spoke, "Before you were common soldiers fighting for our cause, though your talents prove that you are our best and are more suited for more challenging tasks, so you will be given assignments that will challenge your skills and, if successful, will spread our cause for peace further than ever before,"
The Spymaster then produced a series of scrolls and had them laid out on the table in the center of the room, the largest being a map of Thedas, "I have here a series of scout reports that need investigating, you will be divided into groups to focus on the most prevalent matters,"
The Leliana and Cullen divided the gathered agents into teams and gave them their assignments, Collins waited until he heard his name.
"And lastly; Anais Bellerose, Fredrick Collins, Gillard Ford, Jovkus Myathos, Osmond, and 'Saareba'," Cullen shouted out, "You will be led by Lieutenant Ford as you investigate reports of a remote outpost in northern Orlais not far from the city of Ghislain that went dark, last we've heard of them is that they were investigating the Venatori presence in the area, You're mission is to find out what happened and assess the situation appropriately,"
After that Collins and Osmond formed up with their group, Anais was the female elf Collins noticed earlier, she was youthful in appearance like all of her kind; she had medium length brown hair, and had mismatched eyes of blue and green. She wore leather armor that appeared very lightweight. Jovkus was a gruff looking dwarf with the only hair on his head coming from his chin in dirty blonde curls, and his nose was crooked, suggesting that it had been broken.
'Saareba' was the Qunari from earlier, she had short horns with one of them chipped and soft facial features. Despite her youthful look, she was easily the tallest in the group by a full head above Osmond and Ford. Ford himself was a battle hardened knight of the free marches with red hair and cold green eyes, on his back was a large bastard sword. The man emanated authority.
"Okay, I think we can skip the introductions until we're on the road," Ford suggested as he lead the group out of the room. Collins followed the group as he awaited his first adventure, blissfully unaware of the horror's he'd face in the future.
Author's note:
I know it's not a very long starting chapter, but I intend the rest of the chapters to be longer. If you do submit a character, thank you for your time.
