Reno took a light sip from his glass of ale and scanned around, a brawl was going on in the corner of the small ale house. Reno took a last sip and exited the inn.

Reno had traveled a lot and was in a small Crusaders town, south of a Forestmen forest. Reno began to walk down the street and heard a sharp scream. He immediately gripped his sword and pulled it from its sheath. He turned and faced the direction of the scream. A pirate was holding on to a young women “Come on darlin’, I ain’t gonna hu’t ya, am I?”, Reno pushed the pirate off the young lady and noticed the lady had plate amour on, which was VERY uncommon for a lady to wear.

“Watcha doin’?” the pirate screamed at Reno.

“Leave her alone!” Reno shouted, sword in his hand.

“Whatcha gonna do?” asked the pirate and the he took his cutlass out and swung at Reno. The pirate was clearly drunk. Reno parried the swing and battered down on the pirate’s sword until the sword fell out of the pirate’s hand. The pirate stood and ran off.

“Why thank you young sir.” the lady was saying she was a young lady and talked very well.

“Don’t mention it.” Reno began to turn around.

“My names Rosa, do you have a name?” the lady was asking Reno.

“Reno, Reno’s my name, but I have to go now, Rosa.” and Reno began to walk down the street.

“Nice meeting you, Reno.” Rosa called out after Reno.

“You too.” Reno muttered under his breath, “You too.”

Lord Barbod continued to walk the plains in the land of the Black Falcons. He was walking on a path, muttering to himself as he did so. He finally came upon it. The land his fortress used to stand on. Any man could still see a war was fought here, for the broken shields and spears still lay there. He heard the clapping of a horses feet passing behind him.

“Sir, are you lost?” The voice asked, a caring voice.

“Bloody Black Falcon Knight...Be gone with you, or your horse will leave here alone!” Barbod responded, his voice like a whip.

“Excuse me sir?” The young knight persisted.

“Kid, weren’t ‘cha there?” Barbod began, “All those years ago? You’re a Black Falcon are you not?”

“Aye..” The young man stated.

Barbod whirled around to see the knight’s shocked face when he recognized the Bull Crest upon his chest. “Bloody Knight! Your people took my people’s land! Took my people’s lives! And you took my pride! Be gone with you!”

“Y-your...” The knight slowly pulled his finger up and pointed to Barbod, “L-l-lord....Lord Barbod..”

“The same.” Barbod began to grin.

“Well then, on behalf of my kingdom, I apologize!” The knight smiled.

“Bloody knight! I need no apology!” Barbod whipped around and began to walk away. A large grin came to his face as he turned.

“Bloody knight...” He said happily to himself.

Reno wandered down the street without a care in the world until he came to the docks.

“Oh.” Reno looked around and realized he had ventured too close to the pirates docking area, as around him were at least 10 pirates with their usual cutlass’s in there hands.

“YEAH, him, boss it was him, boss it was him!” cried the pirate who Reno had scared away.

“Well sorry lads, I’ll just be going then.” Reno said, turning around to walk away.

“You threatened my brother, did you not?” the pirate who looked like the leader was now addressing Reno.

“Well I am sorry, but he was threatening a women!” Reno said fiercely, “Be off with you!!”. The leader and his men turned and boarded their ship, it was the biggest in the dock.

Aros climbed to the top of the mountain, being careful as not to slip. He was on Dragon Master land so he had to be careful as not to get seen by any nearby. He was traveling through Dragon Master land because he needed to get to Royal Knight land and did not want to travel all the way around Dragon Master land. His father had always told him that Dragon Masters were ruffians and to never cross swords with them, and that they would never let any one in their land, unlike factions such as Knights Kingdom, Classic LEGO, and Royal Factions.

Aros continued up the mountain, stepping carefully as to not leave any clues that he had been here. He came to the top of the mountain, and noticed a small campsite with Dragon Masters camped with their Dragons.

“Malkia Yunmosio,” the person who looked like there boss was talking to a young, but fierce Dragon Master, “You will be leading the attack upon the Crusaders land,” the leader was saying, now all the Dragon Masters were gathered around.

“As you know, their nearest land is east of Classic LEGO, so you will have to ride you dragons over this, now, when you get there make you attack swift but deadly, they will have there royal navy docked as they are close to water. Take your regiment and destroy all you can! Make it quick and do not leave any foolish clues as to who we are as they will destroy us!!”

At least 200 Dragon Masters jumped upon there dragons and took to the sky. The rest of the Dragon Masters got back to their usual chores. Aros sat down against a rock and muttered “Royal Knights can wait, I need to go warn the Crusaders....”

Reno turned around once more and began to walk away until CRACK!!! A sharp pain shot through Reno’s head. Reno turned around hazily to find a pirate with a broken barrel in his hands. Reno collapsed and the last thing he felt was being dragged along the floor.

Barbod continued walking westward after the insolent with the young knight. He was nothing like the Black Falcons who tore his land through. Maybe the Falcons have changed. he thought to himself.

He sat upon the summer grass to enjoy a nice lunchtime meal. He slowly unpacked some berries he’d picked earlier and started to pop them into his mouth.

“A glorious day!” Barbod said to himself, setting his spear and shield to the side.

“Indeed!” A rough voice said from behind him, “A glorious day to kill a traitor!”

Barbod swung around to see a scruffy-looking man behind him. He bore a long sword and a black Falcon shield. Barbod quickly leapt up and instinctively away, for the man was now standing between him and his means of protection. Barbod prepared himself for a fight, even if he were to be killed in the process. The man swung his sword at Barbod, but he was weak and inaccurate. Barbod realized the man was very old.

Barbod spat on the floor. The old man couldn’t be very fast. He dove for his weapon and successfully obtained it. He blunt-ended the man with his spear, then knocked him to the floor with his shield.

“Bloody Falcons!” Barbod began, and picked up the man’s blade. He ripped off the leather from the man’s sword and scribbled something upon it.

“Give this to your king!” Barbod screamed to the man, “And tell him...” Barbod went into thought for a moment, “Tell him that a Bull is always charging.”

The man stumbled up and ran off in a frenzy. He left his shield. Barbod thought, throwing it into the bush. He ventured onward, leaving behind his un-eaten spoils. He walked upon the hard-beaten path until he reached the coastal city of Assumah.

“A nice day for sailing!” he said to himself, and wandered his way to the docks.

“I believe my ship is here, good man.” said barbod to the ship keeper.

“Name?” The man asked.

“Lord Barbod, of the Bulls Crest.” Barbod stated.

“B...b...b-BARBOD?!?!” The man stumbled backward, “A demon sent back from the farthest reaches of the underworld, no doubt.”

“I never have died sir. Now to my ship...”

“Oh-oh oh yes, yes sir. The king ordered it sunk, sir! Please have mercy! I have children!” The man covered his head and ducked down.

Barbod turned and walked off of the docks. He headed for the pub. It had been a long day.

Alex slowly paced up and down the city walls, now and again glancing over the wall just in case there was any sign of an enemy. “Alex, come here my boy.” Cornel Calkony was calling to Alex.

He steadily ran to the general “Yes sir?” Alex asked.

“We have just received a Teloharm from an adventurer called Aros, he said that Dragon Masters were coming to attack us and to get ready for an air assault.” Calkony rubbed his gray beard and told Alex the rest of Aros’s story. “Now we have sent our fastest airflier to pick him up it should get there and back before even the dragons are here, when he gets here I want you to bring him up to the captain.”

“Yes sir!” Alex saluted to his Cornel and marched back to the walls and waited for the new arrival.

Reno woke up, and focused his eyes, he rubbed his head. Standing up, he immediately fell back down. He stood up and used the wall for support. From what he saw he was in some sort of prison. He made his way up towards the gates and rattled them, they were securely locked. He took his shoed off, in the heel, like it always was, was his trusty lock pick. He realized he was on the pirate ship, and that it had stopped. He began to pick the lock. After a couple of minutes the door swung open and Reno hurried out up to the deck. From what he could see he was on Black Falcon mainland, in the port, he could tell because there was plenty of Black falcon soldiers unloading the ship. Reno looked around to find everybody busy so he picked up a box and took it off the boat and scurried off towards town.

Barbod paid the barkeep for his brew. He chugged it down, and bid the keep farewell. The pub was not a friendly place, due to being former Lord of the greatest enemy of the Black Falcons. As he strode out of the pub, he saw a great pirate ship. Perhaps they would grant he a trip if he paid enough. One man, however, caught Barbod’s attention. He was not dressed like the Black Falcon soldiers or the pirates unloading the ship, and moving much faster. Curious why this man was where he was Barbod approached him.

The Airflier landed, when all the Dragon Masters were gone. “Aros!? Is that you old boy?” A middle aged Ninja man was shouting from the cockpit.

“Shing-Shokon!” Aros ran over to the airflier and sat in the cockpit and closed the door.

“What brings you to these lands, Shing?” Aros questioned

“I am working for Crusaders now, flying people around and stuff.” Shing said, pressing a number of buttons. In reply the Airflier lifted off the ground.

“Look! Dragons!” Shing was gesturing towards a group of 200 dragons with riders.

“Shoot ‘em down!” Reno shouted.

“I can’t, we are outnumbered!” Shing drove his airflier out of sight of the dragons.

An hour later the airflier docked in Crusaders land. “I take it your Aros then,sir?” A young man with red trousers and a red shirt on with mail was standing there.

“Yes and who might you be?” Aros asked.

“I am Alex, sir.” I am to take you to the general, follow me.”

Aros and Alex slowly walked up to the Generals quarters.

Reno started to hurry off, but a strange man with a bull insignia was coming towards Reno. Reno noticed that the Bulls were destroyed by the Black Falcons years ago.

“Hello.” greeted the Bull Soldier in a deep, gruff voice, “Where might you be hurrying off too?”

Reno answered “Excuse me, I don’t know who you are so leave me alone. I’m in a bit of a hurry.”

Reno heard a familiar voice. “Boss that guy’s escaping, boss he’s going!!”

Reno turned around to see seven pirates and five black falcons coming towards him.

“What shall we do now, soldier?” Reno asked the Bull.

“Soldier! I am a king! RUN!”

The two misfits ran for at least ten minutes until they came upon an old warehouse.

“In here, I would have fought but twelve against two of us is to much!”

The bull king gestured to the door and the two men entered.

Barbod looked to the strange man, to whom he had just met.

“Bloody Falcons!” Barbod said, spitting on the floor, “And sir, I’m afraid we haven’t been formally introduced! I am Lord Barbod, King of the Bull Crest Knights. And you are?”

“I am Reno, Sir.” The young man said, not taking his eyes off of the door.

“Oh, young Reno, and what problem do you have with the Falcons?” Barbod questioned, looking to the young man.

“Be quiet! I hear them coming!” Reno said as he prepared himself for combat. There was a crack against the door, but it didn’t give.

“Young Reno, no need to worry, you have the Bull King on your side!”

A flicker of red came onto the door, and then a spark. A small fire broke upon the door and the wood began to crackle.

“A small need for worry now, they are barbecuing us alive!” The young man said, beginning to search for a way out.

“There’s gotta be a way out sir!” Reno was shaking.

“It’s ok, there’s a way out over there!” Barbod shouted.

The whole of the door was burning now.

“My..my...father and mother... they..they got burnt alive!” Reno was rooted to the spot.

“Well let’s make sure it does not happen to you! Come on!” Barbod screamed.

Barbod smashed the weak point in the warehouse with his spear, breaking the wall. The whole of the warehouse was on fire now and Reno seemed to have recovered. Reno saw a group of Dragons flying off towards Crusaders land, but thought nothing of it.

“Well sir, I believe thanks are in order.” and Reno pushed out his hand. Barbod shook it firmly.

“Well, King, where too now...?”

Grid: J7 Location: Edge of Warblewood Forest, near the Forestmen/Black Falcon border

Bjarn stopped and stared out at the vast plains of the Falcon Territory, bare and sparse compared to the Forestmen Woods. I need a change from woods, he thought, I’m tired of wandering from camp to camp.. Adjusting his pack that contained everything he owned, Bjarn withdrew an arrow from it’s quiver at his side. After tying a scrap of brightly colored yarn to the arrow, he spun around in a circle and released the arrow random with his eyes closed. Regaining his balance, Bjarn scanned the horizon until his spotted the tiny colored shaft buried in a hillock. He smiled. The arrow had landed northwest, an area he had not explored. With one last look at the Warblewood Forest, Bjarn set out to retrieve his distant arrow.

Lord Barbod smiled at the young man, “I still have much business to attend to in the northeast of this land, so, young man, I suppose this is where we part ways.”

“Nonsense, I will be joining you!” Reno said.

“Could be dangerous...” Barbod protested.

“Even better!” Reno smiled, and the two blissfully walked into the fields of the Black Falcons.
