The Raid
The year is 1439 and all is not well within the lands of Asia. The Dark Continent has risen and is making many attacks towards its island neighbor. Though all is not well in Japan unrest is harbored between the Cardinal Rulers. The South has a false lord and the North West and East have risen to defeat his tyranny.
The tall figure in white watched emotionlessly as the enemy guard he had just killed fell lifelessly to the ground. The attack on the southern fortress had begun with the rising sun and now as the sun reached its highest point was just starting to close. The figure in white walked slowly along the path beside the dungeon cells looking for prisoners when he court an interesting scent.
'Vanilla, Strawberry, Cinnamon and the scent of an innocent female under the smell of an unwashed and bloody body.'
The figures interest had now been engaged and so he continued along the pathway with a new vigor. As he came upon the last cell the scent became almost overwhelmingly strong. Obviously this was the cell with the female prisoner and the only prisoner in this dungeon.
'I have smelled something similar to this before, but where?'
The figure was now standing directly In front of the cell, and could now see that the cell looked empty except for what appeared to be a collection of rags in the only corner of the cell that wasn't exposed to light. The figure lifted his hand and placed the index finger of his right hand on the key hole. With a distinct click the heavy door swung inwards. As the figure stepped into the cell he noticed that the collection of rags moving slightly like breathing and that the scent was strongest in that corner of the cell.
As the figure strode over to the pile of rags he realized where he had smelt the scent before.
'I remember now. The imposter lord had the scent of vanilla and cinnamon on his fists. There had been an emergency somewhere in the castle and he had gone to deal with it. She must have been the emergency.'
The figure gently rolled the collection of rages over so that he could see what the female looked like. And gasped.
