Sitting on his throne, king Nos was handling a rich man, who wanted less taxes for the rich in the kingdom.
‘I am telling you, the rich should stay rich-’
Then a knight came in, seemingly in a rush, ‘Your Highness, i am sorry to bother’ he started, ‘but Frytic has an army charging towards the border, with a new female leader.’
King Nos was shook, they had peace with Frytic, why would they attack now?
‘I think it’s better if i left.’ the rich man said nervously.
‘Yes, we will continue this talk later’ King nos said, while hoping he would forget.

King Nos knew one thing: he should send a scout first, before charging them. who could he send though?
He started scanning his memories for someone capable, this person should be intelligent, but also be able to manipulate.
But then King Nos remembered an old friend from when he was merely a prince.
A guy named Trevor.
In a tavern, far from Tarron, there was a very drunk guy.
Trevor asked the barman: ‘Heeiyy, can i haff anovver beer mate.?’
‘You’re drunk enough, any more and you’d probably puke or cause problems.’ the barman said, ‘I don’t want that happenin’ round here.’
‘neu-, nOw listen here you MOth-’
The door opened, ‘Trevor Ashworth’ a knight called, ‘you must come with me at once.’
‘Why wOuld i?’ he asked.
‘The king wanted the help of an old friend.’ he said.
This sobered Trevor up in an instant.
Everyone was shocked to learn this drunk nobody is an old friend of the king.
‘Aight, aight, lessee what ol’ Nos needs after all this time.’
Trevor walked towards the large gate that leads to the castle.
‘Now this is a place i haven’t seen in a while.’ he said, now sober.
these knights bought some good clothes for him, making him seem like a rich man.
when King Nos saw what he was wearing he laughed heartly.
‘What’s with the clothes?’ he asked
Trevor’s expression turned a bit embarrassed, ‘Your knights insisted I would wear this.’
Now King Nos laughed with a booming laugh.
‘I should tell them to let you wear whatever’ King Nos said, ‘where are your old clothes?’
Trevor started to laugh.
‘Dumpster.’
Now they both started laughing as what they were, old friends.
‘It’s been too long.’ Trevor said.
‘I know, but certain things took precedence’ Nos said gloomily, ‘like my wife, my children and the kingdom y’know?’
‘Yeah, anyway, i heard you needed my help for something?’
‘Ah, right, yes.’ His face got even gloomier.
‘There is an army coming for the border, and i need a scout to see what they want.’ He told Trevor.
‘And you want me to do it?’ Trevor really didn’t feel like it, he didn’t want to leave the kingdom.
‘Of course you will be provided with the necessary protection.’ The king said.
Trevor thought that if he would be safe, it wouldn’t be such a problem.
‘Alright, i don’t want to die, but i know my way with knifes, so I’m in.’
Prometheus was busy setting up spells for setting up camp for Venti’s army.
She was his witch after all, and he wanted a safe camp for his soldiers.
After casting an invisibility spell, shield spell and mute spell, Prometheus entered his red and purple tent, needing some time after casting all those spells.
Because every singe magic spell takes a bit of stamina, that is how magic works.
Prometheus sensed another human being in his tent, and when he looked behind him, he thought to see a strong looking young woman.

‘Prometheus’ the person said, ‘I trust you have prepared the spells?’
After a second she realized who this was, it none other than her king, Venti.
‘I indeed have my king.’ Prometheus said.
Venti walked towards the tent-opening, saying, ‘Good, now rest, tomorrow is a very big day.’
Prometheus continued Venti’s sentence: ‘Tomorrow is the day we take over Murdoch.’
Venti chuckled, then looked back at his witch.
‘Indeed my wise witch, indeed.’

A few minutes after Venti had left Prometheus’s tent, she heard something land on top of his tent.
Wondering what it may have been, Prometheus went outside, and flew a bit up, just enough so she could see what had fallen on his tent.
It was a man, who seemed to have a small disheveled beard and mustache, as if he hadn’t shaven for a few weeks.
But the second Prometheus wanted to approach him, he was gone.

Prometheus tried to see where he had gone with her multiple visions, but couldn’t find him.
That was until she started to look around.
with her infra-red vision, she saw two people underground, on of them without consciousness.
Trevor laid on his back on soil unconscious, but started to wake up.
Someone was standing over him.
He squinted and asked, ‘Who the fuck are you?’
The individual didn’t speak but seemed to wear a weird mask with antlers and its hair in a high bun.
Being confused, Trevor tried to remember what had happened.
‘Oh right, i fell out of a tree onto a tent.’ he thought by himself, ‘Wait, why was i in a tree.’
‘You were in that tree on a mission for an old friend.’ This person said with a ancient female voice.
‘Oh’ Trevor said.
‘Wait a minute’ he asked, ‘did you just read my thoughts?’
But she was long gone.
he saw a long tunnel, so he walked through it, not knowing where he would end up.
