The figure stood on the plain and waited, she knew they were out there. The bandits had attaked a neighbouring city and the city had let out a call for help. Freya had answered their call and rode out immediatly. Her horse had been killed and she continued on foot, she was tireless. She was a Burmecian Dragoon. Her white hair fell across her face and the hat sat crookedly on her head where her ears poked out. Twigs crackled close by and she readied herself. Slowly she raised the Partisan behind her back, it had taken many lives over the years she used it like a glaive, slowly she took the 6inch spike out of her pocket and fastened it too her tail. The crackling came closer and she tensed her legs. The bandits circled her and waited. "Come"she whispered"Come to your doom". The first bandit ran at her, she lashed at his face with her tail raised the Partisan over her shoulder and pushed into his belly."Come you fools and fight valiantly, for once". They charged. The air sang as the Partisan whirled. Suddenly she stopped and wiped the blood from her cheek, hte last bandit stood ther "You were lucky"she said. Gutted him and walked of laughing.
"Da"said Kaly"Where was Burmecia" "Burmecia stood 200miles east of Mindelan, before it fell 10 years ago"said Jonothan. Roald looked up from his knees and asked"Are there any Burmecians left""Of course there are. There are many colonies spread arcoss Tortall and we'll die out before them""Why?"asked Kaly."Burmecians live for thousands of years they have dragon blood flowing through there veins"continued Jonothan. The door slammed open and a very disgruntled figure walked in."Jonothan, first Burmecia stood on Scanra's border and second you know about us"said Freya."I introduce to you FReya my private assasin anddefender of the crown.Shes a Burmecian"said Jonothan."What"Kaly and Roald said in unison.
"You already know about me beung a Burmecian Dragoon, I'll tell
you my story. If you interupt me I'll stop, so don't.""After tracking a band of
bandits that attacked a neighbouring village, I came back to find Burmecia in
ruins my people were still alive my king was dead and without an heir to the
throne we couldn't stay in Burmecia so we spread across Tortall, Galla, Tyra and
the Yamini Isles and recolonized. Humans will die out before because an old
Burmecian is about 2000years. After I left Burmecia I came here and your Da made
me one of his personal guards, I'm also his private assasin I've killed three
people for him and I step in on Alanna's duties when she's away""So now you know
my story, GET OUT!. Your Da and I have buisness to discuss"
