- Synopsis -

A shroud of darkness hides the night. The sounds of battle echoes throughout. Steel on steel, clashing in the unknown. A clash of death, uncaring and unjust.

A band of mercenaries surround a mysterious figure clad in ragged black robes. Beneath its weathered cowl, two bloodshot eyes pierce the darkness. Finally, they've found him. The bastard who they've been searching for, for months.

When they accepted his mark, they were offered a wagon-sized pile of gold crowns; enough to make their jaws slam against the floor. They assumed it would be a tricky job, but never, even in their wildest dreams, did they dare imagine they would be hunting such a ruthless monster. A being, who the devil itself would snarl at beneath his breath.Now, they've found him. That was their second mistake. The first being, accepting his mark. A series of mistakes they'd regret for the rest of their insignificant lives.

I've taken the pledge to complete my story, through thick and thin.

Revisions in progress (Most are already done, however). New chapters (usually)weekly, with revisions occurring randomly. The main plot will remain as is, but the dialogue and certain character traits may vary slightly with the final product.

In addition - This story is entirely in 'beta', meaning it's a rough draft and should not be considered even close to complete. It's the first draft, so do expect some obvious mistakes and issues. Besides that though, please do enjoy the story and let me know what you think in the comment sections.
