  Assassin Chronicles - Chapter Seven  [ Comment ]
Print News | Category: GW Vault Articles
From Chapter Seven of the Assassin Chronicles:
After quite an uncomfortable pause of waiting and anticipation the Lord dressed as a gentleman pulled his knife from his belt and held it in front of him looking at the soldier who remained. After a nod of the head to the soldier the Lord softly spoke, “This is your chance to tell me what you’re doing here before things get complicated.”

      Chronicles of the Eremite: Chapter 3: Part 1  [ Comment ]
    Print News | Category: GW Vault Articles
    Chapter Three: The Scarred Child
    During her time at the Temple of the Ages, Lavian brought much to the church of Dwayna. She taught them alchemy, tended the sick and offered guidance to those in need. She worked herself tired and always put others before herself. It was no surprise that she was asked to bear more responsibility in the church. This was what she had been waiting for—the chance to let her actions speak for her soul and to show Dwayna how strong her faith really was. But would she pass the test?
