[RPG] [Atamara][Talerium] - a mission part 2

[Stefano De Monte]

Ziode walked through Chocxal with his men. They had to move out soon. He had
made his decision regarding his brother's request, and felt a bit more light
hearted. His black cloak wrapped around him in the desert breeze, and his
twin short swords were easily accessed and hung from his sides. Inside his
cloak were the sets of throwing knives. His two guards walked faithfully
beside him as they had long been good friends. Something in his gut told him
it was a good idea to walk around Chocxal today, and he wasn't sure what it
was. Maybe it was just the rumor of a recent arrival from the Far East...

Meanwhile:
It was yet another warm day here in Chocxal and just like yesterday, Pierre
was roaming around town asking people where he could find his man.

the markets where busy, many nobles had arrived yesterday from the front.
They looked beaten, though alive.
They didn't have a scratch on there cloths, unlike back in the Lodge, these
people had armours and cloths enough to sustain for months on the field.

Than suddenly his eye catched a familiar face and in an eye blink it was
gone.
Did he just see his old friend?
Or was it his imagination?

What ever it was, the vastness of the market didn't help along.
There where so many people, he didn't know where to start.
He decided to turn back and walk the other side And while sunken in his
thoughts he thought back at the day he arrived in Peninsula for the first
time.
The realm had just succeeded and he was there to defend it under the banner
of the Antoza Commonwealth, once a great realm in the south.
That day must have been at least as hot as this one.
His sweat was running down his fore head, he looked up to the sun and
wondered if there was anyone in this city who would atleast admire it, the
burning rock who illuminated the stars.

As soon as he looked up, he bumped into what looked like a soldier.
The soldier immidiantly grabbed for his sword, but left it sheated for
Pierre wore no arms and the cloathes of a priest.
Pierre's heart beats like a madmen, these soldiers where highly trained.
<i>"He's almost as fast as Ziode was, with his damn knifes.."</i> he
thought.
But then, just a second after the man started to chase Pierre away... There
he stood, right in front of him.
No words could yet find leaving his mouth.

"Pierre?! is that.. is that you?"

Pierre was utterly amazed, such a big city, he almost gave up hope for today
when he just 'bumped' into him!

"Ziode, I came all the way down here to find you my friend! and there you
are!"

They looked at each other for a second or two, not knowing what to do or
say, but happiness, strength and fire just radiated from there body's.

Suddenly Pierre grabbed Ziode by the shoulders.
"We need to talk now, find us a place to talk, there is much to be said my
friend."
