I was sitting in the living room on the birthday of my uncle.

My Grandpa, Henry, asked, out of nowhere: ‘Tom, why don’t you tell us a story?’
I chuckled and responded with: ‘What kind of story do you want?.’
‘How about a story in medieval times.’
‘Sure.’

‘It all started in a house just outside of a City, and in this house there were two people, who were preparing themselves to get married.
after all, it would only be a week before they would marry.
Boomy was nervous-’

‘Boomy? what kinda name is that?’ i heard my grandpa say.
‘Just let me continue please.’

‘So, Boomy was nervous for the wedding, even tho it would still be a week.
he stood in the kitchen, fiddling around with his hands.
All of a sudden he felt a soft hand on his shoulder, Dori asked him: ‘Hey, are you okay?’
he sighed, ‘Yeah, just a tad nervous’
‘Oh, well, It’s still a week, so you can relax for now.’ she told him.
‘I know, i just have a feeling, and it doesn’t feel good’ Boomy said, with a very ominous tone in his voice.
‘Why do you always feel so paranoid?’ Dori asked him.
‘I guess just because my foster-home was a painful time.’ he said.
A silence fell.

Then Boomy said: ‘Well i guess i will get to work, the King does need weapons for his army.’
‘Yes, we don’t want the war to come here.’ Dori responded as Boomy walked to his Forgery.

When Boomy got there, he saw a person with a wooden antler-mask on, but when he tried to look closer, the masked person was gone.
He tried to run after this mysterious character, to make sure nothing was stolen, but he couldn’t find the masked individual.
Boomy looked at his cabinet with steel, and saw there was only a little bit left, only enough for a dagger, so he went to the kitchen to get his bag with gold coins.

The guard at the gate of the city stopped Boomy, asking: ‘Stop, who are you and what is your business in Tarrin?’
this surprised Boomy, most guards knew me, although he still answered: ‘My name is Boomy Townsend, i am going to buy steel to use for forging weapons for the King’s army.’
‘Alright, proceed.’

As Boomy walked through the gate, he saw another guard, but Boomy knew this guard, so he called: ‘Hey Solyse! Do you have a new guard or something?’
Solyse looked around and then saw Boomy: ‘Yo Boomy! Yep, that’s Jake, the newbie!’
‘Ah, well, see you around!’
‘See you later’

‘We’re out of steel’ the shopkeeper said.
‘Oh, Really?’ Boomy was shocked, this had never happened before,.
‘Do you know somewhere they do have steel?’ he asked the shopkeeper.
‘Nope’ the shopkeeper told him, ‘but i did hear of the second town north of Tarrin having something better in bulk.’
‘Okay, is it usable for weaponry though?’
‘For sure, they are already using it to reinforce their town.’
‘I’ll make the trip, what is the town called?’
When the shopkeeper said it was in the town Cusa, Boomy thanked the man and ran back home.
Dori stood outside her house, waiting for someone.
‘Dori.’ she heard a crispy, but young voice say.
She looked around, to see a woman with a wooden antler-mask in her hands.
She had short, brown hair, and was a little bit shorter than Dori, but made up for her height with muscles.
‘There you are, why did it take you so long? My soon-to-be husband could show up any minute now.’
‘I am here to give you one last chance at returning.’
Dori sighed, she thought about all horrible things she had done in the past.
She then said: ‘No, I’ve changed a lot since my last assignment, i don’t want to do any of that ever again.’
The woman looked surprised, but not shocked, ‘You do know the consequences, right?’
‘Of course’ Dori said.
Before Dori could say anymore, the woman was gone.244Please respect copyright.PENANAhl8VXoK7iT
