Warlord
In the days of a warlord named William, who ruled over a large territory, the people who resided in his land were gentle and kind. The only local midwife, Maria who was as gentle as they come helped deliver many children into the land in her young age of 19. Maria and her Father lived on the upper-east side of the territory that William ruled over. Just west of her residence lived Danielle, a loyal town doctor that had cured old and young alike. Women doctors were not common in this time but in the land, she was the most sought after. The same age as Maria, many wondered how her success has happened in a short time. From Danielle I take you to the castle at which the warlord William lives in. Though he may seem as evil and cruel as any warlord, his kindness shows through by the girl whose father was killed by one of his knights during one of the many wars that plague are land. Her name was Twanria and with her Mother, they live quite comfortably in the castle. To the north of the castle is a tiny village at which a mighty princess named Erin watches as her protectorate. This small village is in the territory of lord William but this village is on the land that many of the wars took place. This village had been rebuilt over and over again and a little ago princess Erin who was trained as a knight protects the town from thieves and scum who plague this area. In this village there is a small little hut that doesn't hold much except a mother and her son who's name is Darrell. He is now only 18 but he advises the lord William with many political decisions. Also in this village lives a small family whose daughter is a great worker and has mastered many skills through reading. Her name is lady Kathryn. Though they live in a small village there nobility is known throughout the land. Katie (as her friends refer to her) has a power to see into the future and knows when great parole is coming to the land, but has no control over the power and at times her visions seem like dreams. To the west of this village lies another small village that has no name but is strictly ruled by lord William. In this small town lives a boy with his older sister. This boy will turn out to lead the land to a democracy when he gets older but now is only 17. This boy is said to have a great power but that's just the townspeople talking. These people all live in different moments in life but will come together to save this land from the greatest evil that has threatened it.
Maria had been spending a lot of her time away from home lately. Her father never worried though, because she was old enough to take care of herself. Maria was visiting the town north of the Castle, because she was supposed to help deliver the baby of Ms. Manbeck. Maria had always looked young for her age but that never stopped her from doing her job. Around the average height for a 20 year old her long blond hair made her look quite young. Her skin as soft as the finest silk and eyes as blue as the morning sky she was gold for the poorest of men, handsome and ugly alike. Whenever she found the time she made clothes for her, and her younger sister Lila. Maria prided herself in the outfits she made and always wore them on her many travels. Today was no different she wore a white blouse with pleasant rolls in the sleeves and holes in the arms. Over her shoulders she had a black cloak that was made of the finest wool. Then a burgundy dress that had designs of butterflies knitted in with white string. Though she had a passion for her clothing, she never let it get in the way of what she had to do. She was quite fond of her work, but she never considered it work. She considered it a way of helping the world.
Maria arrived in the town quite late and the sun was already setting. She walked into the town carrying her medicine bag, when she heard someone walking behind her. Stopping in the middle of the street, she was feeling quite frightened. She began walking faster. There were many people in the streets this night but being alone was a fear she never quite overcame. She turned around just to see a bare street. Suddenly, out the corner of her eye, a man leaped at her. Maria fell to the ground screaming. People came out of the taverns and houses and gathered in a circle. The stranger had his hand over Maria's neck and the other hand reaching for her medicine bag, mistaking it for a purse. From the crowd you could hear yelling but no one came forward to help. Tears began rolling Maria's face as she fought to get free. She kicked the man off of her and tried to race from him but he was too quick. He grabbed the cloak that Maria carried around her shoulders and pulled her to the dust ridden ground. The crowd just moved around them once again while Maria's screams went unanswered. He climbed over her and took his knife from his pocket. The knife began cutting Maria's blouse open leaving her breasts exposed. Maria pleaded with the crowd for someone to help her but to no avail.
Maria, being defiled on the ground with no one to help she felt as if her life would end. When Maria began to give up hope someone immerged from the shadows of the crowd. A beautiful woman with short hair flowing through the wind soon was in plain sight. Her green eyes determined and milky skin strong. Carrying a sword in her right hand and a fist in the other she was serious. Her warrior garb white as pure light and lined with darkest of leather fabric. Her boots leather, to match her outfit she was one unstoppable force.
Maria still lying helplessly on the ground reached for this might warrior. The warrior motioned her hand up and the stranger just looked at her and laughed. To think a women could defeat him. He let Maria alone and charged for the warrior. With a jab of her fist he was turned around and the smack of his sword on her behind made him flee. The warriors gracious hand helped lift Maria from the ground. Then, with a quick movement of her sword the warrior cut Maria's cloak and wrapped it around her body hiding her exposure. The tears had stopped rolling her face when she finally had the feeling to speak.
"Thank for saving my life." Maria said with voice still shaking, "Might I ask what your name is".
"My name is Erin" she replied, "I take this village as my protectorate because none of these cowards will try to make any of the violence stop."
"Thank you again but I must go." Maria replied, "I have to deliver a baby for Ms. Manbeck. Her son Richard spends all his time out in the fields and their father has been dead six months."
"Do you wish for me to escort you?"
"If you would" she replied, "I am afraid of being attacked again."
"Then let us get a move on".
Maria and Erin headed for the Manbeck residents but still had a ways to go for they got there. They decided to rest for the night in one of the local taverns that offered rooming.
