Group 1 Quest of Hope

[Deleted]

Amiee was dressed in a dark black shirt formfitting shirt that showed off her small waist had detachable sleeves which was currently had on to protect her arms from getting scratched from a tree branch or anything else. A pair of dark down pants it was still a big on her small frame tighten it with a belt and tucking the bottom of the pants into her boots. Around her neck as simple gold necklace that her mother had given her years ago it was one of the few remaindered that she had of her mother. On her shoulder was a bag that constrained food rations, some clothes and a magic stone she still wasn’t how it worked but she figured that bring it wouldn’t hurt at all.



As she walked towards the meeting point for the people who were going to try and find the armor that could possible save the kingdom she looked around wondering if anyone she knows was going to be there. Her hair that day was up in her classic style with of her twin tails with the gold ribbon that Aria had tied around her midwinter present. Her father was with her even if he did disapprove a bit of her going on this adventure he wasn’t going to stop her. “Okay… Amiee you can do this. Deep breaths and be brave.”

Diamond had heard things going on and saw the dream and he knew that he had to do something. He got his jeweled gauntlets on and several of his swords. All three of his katana's and the po-dao sword of the white tiger. As he adventured out to find some one to join as he wanted to stop Helena and her madness on trying to end the world. But then sees a rather familure face as Diamond, sees Aimee "I guess you saw the dream huh, look you will be fine" he said and saw that she was rather nervious. But could understand since a lot of pressure was put on them. Since well the world could end and that would not be good. Although he hoped that others would come, but Diamond himself was come behind from the odds before. Although this was a bit above the normal. He had faced demons before but gods were a bit above him. But still this was going to be a bit of challange for him.

Leon saw the dream and realized how the city was going to be in danger, though he wanted to join and fight at Morgg’s castle, he thought it through since though he was just a guest at Nova, and that if he did die there would be many regrets he’d have. While he wondered what he should do Leon heard some of the nobles talking and thought if it was true he would be able to help without being in too much danger.

Preparing for the trip was not a hard task, using his hunting knife he was able to make a fair amount of arrows in his spare time filling both quivers. On the day of the summoning he was able to get a small bag of food as well. As he checked for everything he needed Leon held his bow, checked both his quivers, and sheathed his hunting knife before heading out to the gates.

As he reached the gate Leon noticed many people in the surrounding area, looking around he noticed someone he didn’t want to see here. Walking up to her he said “Hey Amiee, what are you doing here?” noticing the man next to Amiee, Leon put up a smile and looked at him “Hello, i don't believe we met, i’m Leon”

[Deleted]

Amiee turned as she saw a familiar face, a small blush rose to her cheeks remember the first time that she had met Diamond. It been a long time but it was good to see him looking well, given that she been suffering from the nightmares of the dream. “I did. I hope so I don’t know what I will do if…” She left the sentence up in the air since she didn’t want to think about what could happen if they quest failed since they had limited time.



Seeing Leon she smiled at him, that was until he opened his mouth and asked what she was doing here. “Well my love for a matter of fact I am here to go on the quest for the hope of the country.” Guesting her hand to Diamond, “This is Diamond an old friend of mine who also happens to be Captain of the guard though I don’t remember which one.” Her eyes moved from Leon as she turned to look towards the direction that they were heading. Knowing that if they stayed any longer Leon might convince her to return home since this adventure was too dangerous for a female like her.



“Let’s get going we don’t have time for this chatter.” She said as she took off on foot knowing that it might not be the brightest idea to leave on foot but unless Leon or Diamond was going to provide them with a horse they only option was to leave on foot.

Diamond gave a nod to Aimee and then his ears picked up another person joining the two of them. The white haired male had seen the young man before. Maybe a few times around the castle, just passing a few times. Although his eyebrow raised a bit and saw that Aimee had moved on from him. So he had a small chuckle on that matter "I'm Diamond Corsica, Captain to the Rose Court. I wish this was a less dire situation, we could have had a few pints of ale. Ah well" he said and then heard Aimee get a bit tense. "My my kitten touchy aren't we. Transportation should be here rather shortly" he said and a few men road up with three very strong looking horses. Each one had a decent sized pack with supplies on them. Each of them got off and saluted Diamond and he in return did the same. "I assume both of you know how to ride. We have food rations for a few days at least each one of the packs. As soon as your on we will get this show on the road again" he said getting on to his steed. It gave small snort of saying lose a few pounds or something along those lines.

As the group gathered and spoke a few words a carriage not a few meters from them opened as a few noblemen walked out of the carriage and one onto a stepping platform as he began to speak everyone around him looked at the noble before quieting down.“I thank everyone who had taken the time to come here, As you all should know from your dreams our city is not safe. Helen wishes for it’s destruction and plans on releasing the deyu to accomplish her goals! But do not fret. According to our scholars. Hidden in the Morgg is armor which could be used to help defend our city! We must find it. I wish you all good luck on your quest.”



As the nobleman finished his speech a guard took his place “Due to the urgency and amount of people that had showed up today everyone here will be divided to two groups in which you will then travel either the northern or southern part of the Morgg in search of the armor. When you find it you will bring it back with haste. We can not have it fall into the wrong hands.” With that said the guard stepped down from the platform as the adventurers cheered and screamed and started hurrying through the gates.

Leon looked at Amiee as she said she wanted to help. As he was about to say something against it he looked in her eyes and realized no matter what he said wouldn't matter. Turning to Diamond he put his hand out “ Nice to meet you Diamond”


After listening to the speech and seeing the horses he looked at the group. “looks like the majority of the adventurers went north. Maybe we should go south?” leon said before moving closer to Amiee whispering to her “please don't do anything rash, and stay near us.” leon said before hopping on a horse. “let's head out before we fall behind.”

[Deleted]

Amiee cheeks turned rosy at the nickname that Diamond gave her it did bring her back to when they fist met and when they danced with each other. If she was being honest she wasn’t going to lie that she had feeling for Diamond but Leon now held her heart. Shaking her head to push those thoughts away she couldn’t get distracted by though. Thankful for the nobleman when he started speaking about the reason of them being there and how they were looking for armor that was rumored to be able to help defend the city.



Looking at the horses she walked up to pure black one and petted its nose. “Aren’t you a pretty girl.” Hearing Leon she looked at him, thankful that he wasn’t going to try and make her return home. She did pout wondering if he truly thought she was going to do something that would endanger them. Mounting the horse, she took wrapped her fingers around the reins. “Okay ready.”

[Deleted]

Diamond getting on to his horse without any problems and checks everything and as he did. A nobleman gave them a bit more info on there mission. He gave a nod of his head and looked at the two other members of his group. The white haired male saw that Leon was armed with a bow and nothing else. While he was not sure if Aimee was armed at all, but did remember she was some kind of shifter of some kind. So she could go into melee like him but that was the last time he saw her though. None the less though they had to go at it "So you want to go south Sir Leon? Fine by me and again the kitten wants to go. Lets not keep her waiting any longer. Lets do this thing" he said and gave a command with his reigns and ordered the horse to go. Since well Aimee was right that they did not have time to waste now due to Helena having a pissy fit.

[Deleted]

Leon hopped on his horse and began riding “Yes Diamond, and you can drop the sir there is no real need for any type of formalities where we’re headed.” Leon gave a small laugh as he looked towards Amiee further ahead “Yeah if we waited any longer she’d probably leave us it seems.

Leon continued to ride slightly behind Amiee, only using a bow Leon being in front would be a bad idea especially if they were to encounter anything that took more than just a shot or two to take down. He held onto his bow and made sure his quivers were locked in place so no arrows would fall out as he rode “Southbound lets just make sure we’re all close to each other” he shouted to make sure everyone would be able to hear him.

During the trip Amiee talked with Leon and Diamond, and sometimes would sing to help time pass quicker as they made they way to the most southern area of the Morgg castle. She didn’t know much what to expect but she did hope that they wouldn’t have to do much fighting since she wasn’t the most talented fighter even if she been alive for over a century now.



After two days of traveling they finally reach they destination, dismounting the horse she grabbed her bag swinging it over her shoulder as she waited for the others to follow suit. Her eyes looked around the area for any signs of life or even a clear path to give some idea on where to start the quest for the magically armor that might save the kingdom.

[lucifina]

When the group arrived at the morgg they would look at one side that is fairly empty and when they looked towards the area of the castle they would see dead charred bodies that were denser the closer it was to the castle. Above it they would see dark clouds lingering where the castle location would had been.

After they take a look around the area the would be able to notice that would be a large amount of footprints that seem to circle and entwine. The footprints would be from both humans and animals, though they all spread to different locations if it was examined closely it might be possible for them to learn where they should go. Further ahead the ground would be charred and different pieces of equipments, was fractured off.

[Deleted]

As the got to Morgg the smell of charred human flesh slightly annoyed his nose. He had hoped for his two companions that it would not be too much for them. He gets off his horse and tries not to disturb the tracks and tries to gauge what group would have had the bigger load for them to track. The white haired captain looks over at Leon "Leon you have done some hunting as a noble? I want your opinion on these tracks on which one we should follow. Amiee I don't know if you have done any tracking so if you have a opinion as well. It is welcomed" he said and saw scattered pieces of equipment. Diamond would have to check some of it, to see if it was still opperable to use. These foes would have to be either quick or other worldly to stop any of them. Diamond then went back to looking at the tracks again to try and deteriman where to go. He again wanted the opinions of Aimee and Leon to make a better choice to go forward at this point.

[Deleted]

Leon looked at the ground where all the tracks were as he got off his horse and walked near it making sure not to step on any, after some time looking down and feeling the soil to see which would be the most recent he would look at each trail noticing it seemed a fair amount of them would seem to lead to the scraps of armor scattered in the area.

After some time walking closer to the armor scraps and back to the center Leon noticed something odd. For the most part the majority of footprints were of horses or humans due to the print that left, though there were some prints that was from something similar to a lion, pairs of prints showing paws and claws would be a different parts as if they jumped. Afterwards it seems like they ran north east.

“It took quite a bit of time but it seems like most of them were attacked near this area, most of the more recent tracks seem to have stopped close to where the scraps of equipment was. Though there were quite a few prints i’m not sure what they are, they’re almost like Lion prints but they seem to be much heavier by how deep the imprint went the ground, they seem to have headed north east of here, but we should be careful the prints seem to show whatever they are their claws are exceptionally large and sharp.

[Deleted]

The scent of the charred flesh annoyed her senses a bit, causing her to use her sleeve to block out most of the scent. Hopping off the horse she looked around out of habit to make sure that nothing was following them. Hearing Diamond's asking if she done any tracking, if she was honestly she didn’t do much tracking minus a few times when traveling with her mother they had to provide food from the group they traveled with over all the years.



Taking off her boots and socks she placed them on the ground away from all the tracks feeling better with the earth under her feet even if it mostly ash. Now barefoot and feeling lighter she walked over to Leon and Diamond her own feet leaving a light tracks on the ground. Bending down she looked at each of the tracks, her fingers tracing the dirt of each checking how long ago. Listening to Leon she looked at the tracks formed by the lion, it looked like a cat print but the claws were not a normal thing seen in most feline animals. “It’s not a lion, or any type of feline.” pointing to the claws. “All felines they claws are not normally shown in their prints unless they kneeling the ground since their claws are normally not hidden until they attack. But here look it’s a perfect print it’s closer bear like print.”



Walking back to her shoes she dusted off her feet as she put her socks and shoes back on, adjusting her pack as she walked over to the scraps of armor being careful not to step on any of the tracks. Bending down she carefully started to poke though the different armor for anything that could be salvageable or even a hint on maybe what they were fighter before they met they end.
