Introduction: Hell on Earth
The battlefield was a desolate place, not empty but covered in a quiet carnage. She walked with fleet feet leaving no trace of where she stepped but every step leaving a mark on her mind. It seemed like a vision from hell, bodies bent and broken in ways that even the most twisted of royal tormentors wouldn’t concoct. She pressed forward. She had been trained to steel her nerves and sharpen her mind like a keen blade. Amidst these surroundings she realised how far theory could be from practice.
She didn’t really believe her eyes when she noticed the tree from afar. Getting closer, she could identify details like the whimsical curls of its branches and the few remaining leaves. From what she could gather from the surroundings there had been a small forest, at the very least, and this grey tree was all that remained. At best, it was dry or dying and the ominous body hanging from a rope tied at the neck only added to the pervading sense of gloom. It was the meeting place anyway so she strengthened her resolve.
Under the tree branches it seemed like the dead bark was giving her the small comfort it had left. Looking around she didn’t notice anyone but renegades were often popping out of nowhere. Their mystical charm had earned them the nickname of ‘ghosts’. She reviewed their history as she waited. In the horizon she sighted a lone human silhouette. She sent her hawk to scout ahead and returned with good but dispiriting news: it was him, so he was just late. The renegade, against his reputation walked slowly, looking from side to side but without the usual shifty moves she would expect.
When he arrived under the tree she simply wasn’t in the mood to comment on his lack of punctuality. She handed the map and he gave back the ring of keys. Neither said anything but it only took a look, eye to eye, to say all they felt. He walked back from whence he came in the same weary fashion. As discouraging as it was looking elsewhere would only up the ante. She turned and walked away with careful but heavy steps.
She had what she had come for; which would normally give her even the slightest relief. Instead, the desolation extended as far as the horizon and probably beyond; not only outwards but also inwards. It had to be done then. She had to do her part and make sure that this was never to be repeated. Every link of the chain understood that but it seemed like so little and so late.
