The Fate of the First Hero of Light
BAM! BAM! BAM!
The wooden door in the large bedroom has been barricaded shut, it is violently shaking, it looks as if it could break open at any moment.
"OPEN UP! WHERE THE HELL IS MY MONEY!"
"EEEEEEEIIIIIIII!"
"Sir Hunfrey break open the door!" "YES, LADY VIVILARA!"
The door flies into the back of the room.
CRASH
It is shattered into firewood.
Two black clad individuals enter they are wearing black cloaks. The cloaks hide their faces below eye level, their arms are also hidden and the nation of Hyrule's triforce symbols is printed on them.
The figures wearing the cloaks are the Dark Elf and the Knight.
The Dark Elf's face is purple there are many veins on her pumping forehead. She is searching through the room. The many wives of the warlord are screaming in fear. She sees him he is hiding behind a large cabinet.
She moves towards him kicking the women, who lay collapsed out of fear, in front of her path leading towards the doomed person. They fly and hit the walls or the other furnishings in the room. The sounds can be heard of the bones breaking when the women hit the objects.
Finally she is standing above the cowering man. Her shadow is being cast on him. There is a pool of liquid being formed underneath him. She glares at him, you can hear his bowels moving.
"WHERE THE HELL IS MY MONEY!?"
He is shaking and whispers "I only owe the Warchief money, not you."
"WHAT DID YOU SAY? I AM HIS WIFE I OWN EVERYTHING OF HIS! YOU ARE NOT PAYING ME, MY DUES!"
She grabs him with one hand, lifts him up and starts beating him. His teeth are flying and his nose is broken. She throws him onto the ground. All his ribs are broken.
"AAAAAAAAGGGGGGGHHHHHHH"
"GIVE ME MY MONEY!"
His arms are flailing pathetically about while she is beating him. Her punches break everything she hits. A punch on the shoulder, it is broken so badly he will never be able to use it properly again.
"PLEASE STOP! I WILL GET YOUR MONEY!"
The Dark Elf stops and stands up. The broken man crawls on the floor painfully, he slowly moves to exit the room.
"Sir Hunfrey! Pick him up and take him to where we need to go!" "AT ONCE LADY VIVILARA! COME WRETCH! LEAD MY LADY TO HER RICHES!"
He points with a broken finger. "...over there..."
They are led into a secret store room, it is filled with various gems and other expensive artifacts.
"Let me see here on the list: Kornfeder you owe Geir 300,000 rupees, plus taxes of 30,000 rupees and late fees of 50,000 rupees. In total 380,000 rupees. Here is the receipt pay Sir Hunfery! Immediately!"
The severely injured Warlord whispers painfully "yes." He crawls his broken body onto a chair and opens a container. He produces various currency's and starts counting.
After long moments...
"Next time you do not pay me. I will not show any mercy. Do you understand?!"
"YES!" the Warlord wet himself again.
They leave the room and exit the bandits base. They pass the many bandit that lay half dead on their way out.
I apologize Sir Hunfrey for making you carry the chest." "LADY VIVILARA FOR YOU ANYTHING!" "Sir Hunfrey." The Dark Elf touches his one arm. "LADY VIVILARA!" His face is red. "LET US FIND THE NEXT SCOUNDREL!" "Yes, Sir Hunfrey."
They enter the red candle district of North Plilrok district.
"Sir Hunfery please close your visor." "WHY LADY VIVILARA?" "The next target is a bordello. If they dared to signal to you I might kill them all. "UNDERSTOOD YOUR LADYSHIP!"
"The Knight is thinking "TO THINK THAT I COULD BE PROTECTED BY MY FRIEND ONCE AGAIN! THE BLESSING TO BE ABLE TO FEEL HER TENDER LOVE AND CARE! EVEN IF SHE IS MARRIED TO THE DEVIL HIMSELF! SIR IZDRYN AND MYSELF COUNT EACH DAY TILL SHE HAS DETERMINED WE WILL BE PUNISHED FOR OUR BETRAYAL OF HER TRUST. WE PRAY TO THE HOLY MOTHER THAT SHE WILL FORGIVE US COMPLETELY."
"Sir Hunfrey please wait here. I will call for you, come join me then." "YES, I UNDERSTAND!" "Thank you my friend." "LADY VIVILARA!"
The Dark Elf enters the brothel.
The Knight is looking around, he is holding a massive treasure box in his arms. It has not even been filled up to a sixth of its total space.
"HOW MANY PLACES MORE?" he is thinking.
Inside the bordello screams are heard.
"LADY VIVILARA! I MUST HELP HER!" He wants to run but it feels as if his feet are cast in stone. "SHE TRUSTED ME TO STAND GUARD! I WILL NOT BETRAY HER EVER AGAIN!"
Distant voices inside the large structure...
"EEEEEEEIIIII HELP ME!..."
"WHERE THE HELL IS MY MONEY!"
The sounds of screaming woman and men crying are heard. The many furnishings inside are being destroyed. All the other bordello's inhabitants are exiting looking in horror at the noises coming outside of the bordello.
"WHERE IS MY MONEY?!
"PLEASE STOP HAVE MERCY!" "I ONLY WORK HERE!" "YES, STOP!" SOMEONE SAVE ME!"
"ENOUGH OF YOUR EXCUSES! WHERE IS MY MONEY? WHERE ARE YOU HIDING IT!"
Prostitutes are flying through the thin walls of the brothel as the Dark Elf casts them out. They are running away some of them are naked, all of them have blue and black marks they have been severely beaten.
"GET DRESSED! BRING ME MY MONEY!"
After short whiles...
"Sir Hunfrey please come join me!"
"YES, AT ONCE!" He moves with speed.
There are many women and men unconscious on the floor. Each and everyone has been beaten to within an inch of their lives.
Finally he sees it, there are armed guards. All their limbs are pointing in wrong directions they are rolling painfully about, screaming loudly. He enters the room. There is an elderly woman her dress has been torn to shreds, her one eye is swollen and clumps of her hair lay on the floor.
She is begging towards the Dark Elf.
"Please stop if you hurt all the girls. We wont be able to make money anymore."
"BE QUIET!" screams the Dark Elf.
"YES!"
"Let me see here: Tynhea 750,000 rupees, the taxes are 75,000 rupees and late fees of 250,000 rupees in total 1,075,000 rupees. Here is the receipt, pay the man."
"I wont be able to live anymore I cannot afford that much!"
"FIEND! SILENCE YOU WILL PAY HER LADYSHIP!"
"Please Sir help me!" She runs towards the Knight she slips and grabs his cloak. It is torn from his body. He is standing in his silver armour.
"WAIT! You are a real Knight! How can you let this injustice pass!"
"..."
"I REQUEST YOUR HELP! YOU CANNOT DENY ME YOUR KNIGHTLY CODE..."
SNAP
SNAP
SNAP
"AAAAAAGGGHHHHH!"
"Do not think you can tell MY FRIEND WHAT TO DO!" The madam wails out of pain. The Dark Elf is turning her broken arm like you would turn a screw.
"STOP PLEASE I'LL PAY!"
"Do not make a mistake you have no choice in this matter! DO YOU UNDERSTAND?"
"YES!" The broken woman starts crawling trying to exit the room.
"Sir Hunfrey please."
"YES, MY LADYSHIP! COME SHOW US WHERE!" The chest is filled.
"Thank you very much, here is your receipt. Will you be late with your next payment?"
"ABSOLUTELY NOT!"
"That is good to know. Sir Hunfrey let us leave."
"YES, LADY VIVILARA!"
They are following the road leading to the next location.
"MY LADY."
"Yes, Sir Hunfrey?"
"HOW SHOULD I FEEL ABOUT THIS QUEST?"
"My friend there will always be evil people. Geir is trying to keep them from having too much power."
""POWER" LADY VIVILARA?"
"The richer a person is, the more people they can hire, that will lead to an increase of their groups strength. Geir is trying to lessen the chance of that happening. But..."
"MY LADY WHAT IS WRONG?"
"The money he gets from them, must come from somewhere."
"I DO NOT UNDERSTAND!"
"All their money is stolen, they do not work for it. When he takes it back, they steal it from someone else again."
"UNBELIEVABLE! GEIR YOU SCOUNDREL!"
"Sir Hunfrey what should we do?"
"LADY VIVILARA THESE PLACES WE HAVE BEEN TO! HAVE NOT BEEN RELATED TO OUR KINGDOM!"
"Sir Hunfrey you are correct! Please look at the other places!"
"YES, NONE OF THEM ARE CONNECTED TO OUR KINGDOM!"
"Still my friend, even if that is true. They will still spread further misery in those lands."
"..."
They start moving again.
The next location is a giant gambling house. There is a family resort with heated water pools and slides inside of the massive estate where the gambling house is located.
"THIS IS THE PLACE!"
An envelope falls out of the ledger they have been carrying. It contains two tickets to enter the family resort.
"LADY VIVILARA HOW MUCH COULD HE POSSIBLY EXTORT OUT OF THIS DEN OF WICKEDNESS?"
The Dark Elf turns the page to the amount owed. She falls over.
"MY FRIEND!"
The Dark Elf recovers and shows the Knight.
30,000,000,000 rupees
The Knight almost falls over.
"WILL THIS CHEST BE LARGE ENOUGH!?"
They walk to enter the family resort. The armed guards look at books containing pictures of peoples faces. They signal to the others, many guards move to the entrance.
"They must know us. That was most likely a bounty book."
"BOUNTY BOOK!"
"Yes, with our recent exploits we have become wanted persons."
"UNBELIEVABLE!"
"I also agree Sir Hunfrey! They are only asking 5,000,000 rupees for our heads."
"ONLY 5,000,000 RUPEES! I HAVE NEVER BEEN SO INSULTED IN MY WHOLE LIFE! WHAT OF OUR OTHER COMRADES?!"
"Sir Izdryn is also wanted for 5,000,000 rupees."
"LADY ESDEATH?"
"My Grandmother is 10,000,000 rupees."
"THE SCOUNDREL?"
"The small Kingdom of Eawrusan and Princess Eileen's hand in marriage."
"THE YOUNGEST DAUGHTER OF THE RULER OF THE ROYAL HOUSE VASILIOS!"
"Yes, unbelievable!"
"LADY VIVILARA I CANNOT BELIEVE THIS! THAT THEY WOULD INSULT US IN THIS WAY! LET US MOVE WITH SPEED!"
"I agree my friend!" The Dark Elf cracks her knuckles, the Knight discards the chest with funds. They run towards the guards, their eyes are open. The Dark Elf and Knight move to attack...
Long moments later...
The Knight is pulling a wooden cart there is a grey tarp covering the many contents of the cart. In the distance behind them is the burning remains of the gambling house.
"THAT WILL TEACH THOSE FIENDS!"
"I agree Sir Hunfrey our bounties are bound to increase after all that destruction!"
"I CANNOT WAIT TO SEE THE FRUITS OF OUR LABOUR PAY OFF! WHERE CAN WE FIND THESE BOUNTY PAPERS?"
"I will send one of my Tribes people to collect them in due time."
"DUE TIME? LADY VIVILARA."
"Yes, the price will not increase immediately. We will have to wait for some time before a new price will be issued."
"I CANNOT WAIT! WE MIGHT EVEN BE ABLE TO SURPASS LADY ESDEATH!"
"Sir Hunfrey we should not get to excited. Especially you my friend cannot deal with disappointments. Let us be more constraint, I believe an increase of 1,000,000 rupees would seem to be not too far fetched?"
"YES, LADY VIVILARA YOU ARE CORRECT. I HAVE THIS FLAW THAT I TEND TO EXAGGERATE! 6,000,000 RUPEES WOULD SEEM THE LOGICAL CONCLUSION. STILL WE ARE COMPETITIVE! IF SIR IZDRYN CANNOT RISE TO OUR LEVEL! IT MIGHT LEAD TO DISASTER!"
""Disaster" Sir Hunfrey?"
"JEALOUSY CAN BREAK EVEN THE STRONGEST OF FRIENDSHIPS APART!"
"Sir Hunfrey! You are correct!"
"HOW WILL WE SOLVE THIS DISASTER?"
"But Sir Hunfrey! We might be the ones losing!"
"LADY VIVILARA WHAT DO YOU MEAN?"
"Sir Izdryn is traveling with my Grandmother and they are killing people! We are the ones losing!"
"UNBELIEVABLE SIR IZDRYN, LADY ESDEATH HOW COULD YOU!"
"Yes, while we have been busy doing the dirty work! They have colluded together to gain ground!"
"MY FRIEND HOW COULD YOU BETRAY ME LIKE THIS?! WAIT LADY VIVILARA! IT HAS STARTED!"
"What do you mean Sir Hunfrey?"
"OUR JEALOUSY HAS TAKEN HOLD!"
"Unbelievable Sir Hunfrey you are correct. I had not been thinking clearly...WAIT! Sir Hunfrey we might be the ones causing them the most jealousy!"
"MY FRIEND PLEASE EXPLAIN!"
"They are only killing degenerates and other hated people. Instead of increasing their bounties they might have been lowering them."
"I SEE PEOPLE WILL BE GRATEFUL OF THEIR HELP DISPOSING OF THOSE FIENDS! OUR POOR FRIENDS! HOLY MOTHER FORGIVE ME THESE SINS! PLEASE PROTECT OUR COMRADE'S HEARTS!"
"Sir Hunfrey let us not tell anyone of this. I would not want our precious friend to feel inferior to us..."
"I UNDERSTAND I SWEAR ON MY HEART AND THE HOLY MOTHER. I WILL NEVER DISCLOSE THIS TO ANYONE!"
"Thank you Sir Hunfrey I also promise on my love to you as my friends. We will not harm our friends heart or honour!"
"YES, LADY VIVILARA LET US CONCLUDE THIS QUEST AS FAST AS POSSIBLE! SO THAT WHEN SIR IZDRYN RETURNS! WE CAN ARRANGE THINGS IN A WAY THAT HE WILL NOT KNOW OF OUR EXPLOITS!"
"Let us go Sir Hunfrey!"
They start running homewards...
Finish.
