-the handwriting on the poster changes as the author does as well-
Oh boy, sorry about that. Hey there, my name is Dawn. Like my colleague so eloquently put it, were in a spot of danger here. You see, our town sits at the bottom of a basin. As you may know, a basin is a extent or an area of land where surface water from rain, melting snow or ice converges to a single point. We are literally surrounded by water here. About three days ago, a explosion rocked our small town. Two of our levees were damaged. Sabotaged, actually. You see, seeing the fragility of our situation, explosives are not permitted in the village. Somehow, someone managed to get enough into the town to put a size-able hole in the two levees. We can worry about the who-done-it, later. We would like help in sealing the holes before the weakened levees burst from the pressure of the water. After that is all said and done..help us find our traitor.
Enemies:
Because of the explosions, the normally docile animals in the forest outside of the city have gone feral and are liable to attack someone on sight.
Weak: Urion Monkeys.
These monkeys tend to travel in groups of two or three. They do not have many combat abilities, however, they have excellent gymnastic and reflex skills. Precision attacks are not recommended when fighting these animals.
Normal: Nightgale Cats.
These cats are no mere felines. Beware facing them at night, because they have almost perfected the art of hunting. Once these animals stand still, they are almost undetectable by the normal human eye. The best time to strike would be when they are moving, or during the day when their black fur is most noticeable.
Strong: Tynaran Bull.
This bull is related to one of the fabled animals of the Zodiac. They do not appear often, and when they do, they spell trouble for all, but mostly young women. This bull mostly ignores males and goes about it's business, but if it thinks there is a woman around, it will charge into a seemingly unstoppable rampage. It is to be avoided, because it is equipped with horns able to pierce thick tree trucks.
Reward:
Upon fixing the wall and helping find out who the traitor among the people of Scion and finding out why he or she did it, you will be treated to a feast by the townsfolk and be given 2,500 jewels.
The job was something that Frederick reluctantly decided to take on, for he wasn't someone that usually saved lives. But saving the people of this village was not the thing he was after. No he was hunting down the culprit, a man who was a fugitive and had done some damage at other places before. And during this man's mischief he had created enough enemies, that someone had place a bounty on his head. His bloodied severed head.
And be that as it may the man had fled towards the Mountain Village, where once again he had created a disaster. This time in the form of a flood by breaking one of the levers of the local dam.
But saving these people was just a small inconvenience that came with it's own merits as well. It was the perfect disguise for him and his companion to hunt him down. Under the cover of the towns saviors they could easily move around. Without any of the villagers suspecting them.
Especially if the one doing the hunting was a little girl, whom at first glance could look very innocent. But nothing was less true, the young girl who was his companion for the mission was one of the most cruelest members of the guild. It was mostly because of her pure nature of evil, and the part that she was actually an undead helped a lot too. And then there was off course her magic, which was as twisted as herself. And with it she was the perfect candidate to trap the man who had caused all this destruction.
The sight of the water clashing against the walls made out of sandbags, was truly a sight to behold. It was one the most powerful forces of nature and the destruction this flood has caused showed it. In it's path from the dam it had taken down tree, houses and everything else in between. But only when it had reach a more open space it had become a true problem for the villagers. It had become a rising tide that start to fill the streets. And was only kept out by poorly made walls that consisted out of bags of sand. After watching the villager fighting relentlessly against the water, Frederick turned his attention towards the young girl.
