you were a ranger, your grandfather a legend that died fighting off foul creatures aiming to destroy the land. The demons were after an ancient artifact, if the artifact is destroyed a power of evil that is invincible would be unleashed upon the world, your dad died killing a warlock that wanted to destroy the artifact. yeras later the artifact was found by a peasent and served him as a tax to the king, the king found the artifact and let the priests find out the artifact's prophecy, though they mis-interpreted it, telling the king the destroyer of the artifact would become invincible in strength, and so the king wanted to destroy it, though it could only be destroyed in the middle of the elf forest, a place protected by a gigantic animal guardian. He heard of you, you had a knack for making animals trust you, and in fighting monsters too, he also knew about the mark, the ranger's mark. That sacred mark passed on generation to generation in your family gives its owner an enchatment making monsters and animals alike trust you and not attack you. And so he sent you on a quest to kill the guardian, in return he promised to give you the artifact which you knew the actual prophecy of, you killed the guardian and wanted to claim your price, but the king had evil in his heart, and so he set an assasin to kill you once you were in the castle and make it look like he was trying to get the artifact too, only he didn't succed, you understood your situation quick enough.. and so you grabed the artifact, charged out the castle and rode your steed to safety, there are still assasins on your tracks, you have to finally keep the artifact safe!
you are the wanderer

but okay, you start coming out the door when Tanren stops you "wait... you didn't even interrogate him!" Noban pushes Tanren and says something in the language-you-don't-know and Tanren punches him an throws him off "are there any reinforcements?" he says "no... only u" the man says getting interrupted by Tanren breaking his nose with a fist, he screams in pain "Are there any re-reinforcements!?" Tanren yells
"i'm pretty sure if their was re-reinforcements, they'd came to help doing our conversation. besides, if i'm correct, he's just an assassin hired by the king to get the artifact back. but Tanren does remind me of a good question, capt'n. is their anyone else after me?"
"no... body" he says, Tanren then holds his spear up to the guys neck "Is there?" The guy, in a weird shock glances at Tanren "I... Told you.. no body.... don't kill m.." Tanren pushes hard and the spear goes right through the guy's neck.
"this is why!" He says pulling a small scroll from the guy's table and throwing it over you..
it reads:
We found the "ranger" has gone on a voyager ship with some other armed men... find them and kill them... if in 2 hours we won't get any report from you we will send the real navy and take care of them once and for all
"report in this situation means getting back to shore with you shackled up and tortured... come on... we got a lot of stuff to do..." He says turning away and going back to the ship
she is a little hurt, apparently the assassins found her... you get to the table... there is a lot of meat served "Good to see captain arrived" Martlin says zipping some alcohol... The large table has the five rangers sitting next to each other and eating meat, including Daligan and Martlin which are also drinking. "Sit down young ranger" Daligan cries "Have a nice brew!" Tanren mumbles to himself and signals to Dandrin. Dandrin then picks up a small sack "got some for Saphira"
"ok" i take the small sack, and guess give a little of the food inside to saphira. *Sighs* i'm a tactician, not a leader. that title goes to someone who cares about other, and knows how to lead outside of a battle.
your thoughts are interrupted by Martlin almost slapping you with a bottle of beer "common! Drink up! You look down!" He shouts giving you a glass filled with delicious-looking beer
