The Storm begins

Darkness. That's all I could see. Light is forbidden to a prisoner. But of course i'm no ordinary prisoner. They only think I am a prisoner becuase i'm handcuffed and blindfolded. Those pirates don't suspect a thing. No-one can read a storm. No-one can read Grey Storm.

The pressure of the moment
1:00 PM, ???

The picture of my latest target rests on the table. Charged by the marines, I have been ordered to track down and eliminate Zackery Byrant, an infamous pirate captain. The man murdered a well-respected marine captain, and now he must pay the price.

He feels safe, hidden away in the tavern of Windfall Island, unsuspecting of my watch. His crew surrond him, blindly following their captains orders. The Windcrest Pirates pose no threat to me. The only people they pose a threat to are the civilians.

The innocents must be protected. A tricky task indeed, and one I will complete with no mistakes. I must head out now, if my mission is to be done. My first stop is to the Windfall Gardens. My goal is to recover that artifact. The one thing that will draw him out.

Heading out with my three swords by my belt, seems almost like a dream, like most of my missions. The excitement of nearly completeing my goal builds up, deluding myself. This is no ordinary mission though. Zackery holds one of the keys to that man. And I must find that key, that secret he holds so dear to his heart.

The civilians walking down the streets have no idea of the mayhem that will happen soon. The tyrant that rules over these people will soon be gone, nothing left but a voice in the wind. The death of that man will bring peace to this island, something these people have not seen in many years.

The familar shape of the garden entrance approaches. The green trees behind filled with life, hiding the artifact that will end this trouble.
