The Thunder Knight

Arthur slowly became conscious again, which as strange and improbable as it sounded meant that he was in Hell.

Well let's see what old scratch has prepared for me

He slowly opened his eyes and he saw that he was in some place with a clear nice looking sky, the kind that he didn't see that often ever since the gang moved closer to civilization

After that, he slowly stood up from the ground that was, as far as he could tell, dirt and then looked in front of him to one of the strangest sights he would ever see.

He saw a man that looked like Trelawney but instead of the liveliness and smartness that Trelawney's eyes had the eyes of this man looked like the ones he had seen in the many businessman he had the displeasure to meet, cold and calculative eyes that indicated that this man would sell his soul if the price was right.

There was a man who looked like a strange combination of a sheriff, a judge and a king with a big but orderly beard and a serious face with gray eyes that looked like they could be caring and loving or if necessary ruthless and unforgiving.

Besides the man was probably one of the most beautiful woman Arthur had ever seen she was a beautiful young woman, with luscious blonde hair and big and caring blue eyes, she reminded him of the princess he had saved.

After staring them for a couple of seconds, the strange businessman approached him slowly and greeted him.

"Hello Mr. Morgan" He said plainly

"Is this hell?"

"No Mr. Morgan" He said with a slight chuckle "You are in a special place for special cases."

Arthur didn't know what he was referring to but he didn't ask He wanted to know who this man was, or if he was a man at all

"Who are you?"

"I am many things, both good and evil but you can call me The Strange Man since I cannot remember my name" He said with a look in his eyes that looked like he had a struggle with himself.

"But I am not important right now, what they have to say is what you need to hear"

After he said that, the Kingly looking man came forward, the woman not far behind.

"Hello Arthur Morgan" He said in a neutral yet warm tone.

"Who are you?" Arthur asked in even more confusion, how the hell did he even know his name.

"I am known as The Father and she" He said while pointing at the woman "is known as The Maid."

"Hello Arthur" She said in a sweet tone.

That answer didn't satisfy Arthur but he had a few more important question in mind.

"Where the hell am I? And why am I here"

"You are in a limbo of sorts for people that while they did good and for that do not deserve to go to Hell you also did not achieve a complete redemption" Said The Strange Man "And you are here for a proposition as to how you can achieve a complete redemption"

"Our proposition is quite simple we come from a land that will suffer greatly and we want to avoid a good part of that suffering" Said The Father

"But what do I have to do with that" Asked Arthur deeply confused

"You Mr. Morgan are quite frankly the best person we have for helping our people" Said The Maid.

"I don't think I am very good for anythin'"

"To be honest with you Mr. Morgan you are quite a flawed man but you have the potential to not only help our people survive but to help them survive, because you can help them learn may thing and you also have much to learn" Said The Maiden in a truthful tone.

Arthur struggled to understand their point of view but apart of him did agree with them.

"So that is our proposal Mr. Morgan help our people and achieve redemption" Said The Father with hope shining in his eyes.

"I… well I don't know I don't think I can help your people and I think I need some time to think about all of this"

The Father and The Maid looked disappointed but their eyes still held hope.

"I hope you change your mind Mr. Morgan" Said The Father and with that they both disappeared

Arthur sat down in the ground and took a deep breath, He wasn't sure where he was or what was truly happening but a part of him told him to take the offer and try his best in a new life.

I don't deserve this and I ain't Jesus to go around and saving people.

Still a part of him wanted to go wanted to do his best at a new life.

"Where would I be going?" Asked Arthur suddenly.

"To a place called Westeros more specifically to The Seven Kingdoms a place that resembles the medieval age back in your home" The Strange Man answered quickly.

"So I'll be a New Austin Yankee in Kings Arthur Court?" Arthur joked.

"It's a very different land to our own but I think you might like it" Said The Strange Man ignoring Arthurs horrible attempt at comedy.

"You should go you could truly help those people"

"Yeah but I can only help so much"

"I know that and that's why I will give you some special help"

"Like what? A gun and a train?" Half-jokingly asked Arthur.

"I can't give you a train but I will give you some guns and a couple of items" Said The Strange Man.

Arthur was slightly speechless at that but he let it go because he had heard and seen stranger things.

"I don't know I am just an outlaw that robbed and killed his way across the country"

"Yes you were but you also were many other things but more importantly you could be more you just have to try" Said The Strange Man with an intense look on his eyes.

Arthur struggled with himself he didn't think that he could be anything else than an outlaw but then he remembered his last words to John.

Get out of here and be a goddamn man.

And with that, he made his decision.

"I may not understand much of what's happening but I accept your offer" Said Arthur with determination in his eyes.

"Excellent Mr. Morgan but before you go I need you to choose something" Said the Strange Man before approaching a table that Arthur swore didn't exist before.

Arthur stood up and walked towards the table and he saw in the table every weapon he had owned in his life.

"Now Mr. Morgan please choose your weapons" Said The Strange Man with an amused glint in his eyes
