The year is 2939 and after a long period of time, once again a new war had been added to the history of mankind, But this time was different.
After the hundreds of years with peace and prosperity the world fell once again into chaos, a country with no name had been developing
nucelear weaponry in secret and those weapons were the end of peace and order. After other countries found out about these evil deeds
they launched an attack to aquire and destroy those weapons once and for all, but then the monsterous weapons were unleashed.
Everything was in chaos with radiation, explosions and a sea of fire which purged the world as we knew it.
Now let's get back up to date. After 40 years, it's now 2979 and the world has started to heal. Trees are growing, there is food for almost everyone
and now a system where people believe in ranks, the nobles are the rich and important people, there is the common folk and the knights, whom serve the king.
Knights are the ones who keep the order, and punish thieves, bandits and such and finally there are adventurers, who take down beasts and
monsters that are potentially dangerous to other humans. Logically the king is the most important person of the nation and very respected
and peace has fallen to earth is once. Most of the technology and what humanity had achieved was lost to time because everyone concentrated on
surviving the disaster, now the world is different. Everyone who has money travels with horses and carts pulled by them. There are inns, taverns
merchants and hunters too. No one owns guns, instead bows, daggers, swords and spears are used. The animals have also evolved into beings unimaginable,
Animals are classified into 5 classes:monsters, beasts, wild animals, farm animals and pets. The job of hunters is to take down dangerous monsters and
beasts that are a danger to humans. There are also craftsmen and blacksmiths but most importantly, there are those whom have been given a special
and an important job which requires skill and a permission, which only a few have been given due to the importance and required quality of the product.
This story is about the young man who had become a noble, wealthy and important to the world, he is one who has been given a permission to create
these special products, and the permission was given by non other than the king itself. This is the story of Jaguar Fallen, the legendary craftsman.
The king has ordered the 5 legendary craftsmen to craft something we all need, the item is called a door hinge. Those 5 who are known as legendary are the ones who must craft these items that rhyme with orange. The perfect door hinges are the talk of the town, every merchant and noble wants to get their hands on these precious pieces of metal and they are very expensive so not many people own them. Jaguar had been walking around the town looking for a nice snack to buy when suddenly he heard a scream coming from the dark alley, He was thinking if he should go and investigate or just stay safe and pass by. Jaguar had come to the realisation that nothing gets done if everyone just stands still, so he decided it was time to go and help whoever screamed for help. "The hero Jaguar, that has a nice ring to it" he thought to himself while walking into a dark scary alley hoping to save someone. Since he was skilled with a sword and was carrying a cheap blade for show he hoped that he would be a great help. Now that he was closer he could hear way better, and he started listening so he would know what's going on, instead of jumping into battle. "Please help me, anyone! These bandits are going to rob and kill me!" The mysterious man screamed. "You won't get out of this one, no one will come to save you. No one is stupid enough to wander around here!" The bandits responded. The bandits chatted for a little bit and Jaguar now had an idea of how many of them there were, he counted 4 in total and decided to help the man in need, and jumped in front of the bandits. "Who the hell are you, and what do you think you can do? It's 4 to 1. You will just be another useless man who we rob" A bandit screamed. "I am Jaguar Fallen, A swordsman, A noble and skilled with the sword. 4 to 1, eh? I'm liking the odds." Jaguar screamed at them The faces of the bandits got a little pale as they responded "Well then... BRING IT ON!" The fight began and it was looking pretty bad for Jaguar, but after he got the first bandit down things started to look better, as it was only 3 to 1 now. After the first bandit was down another one fell, it was 2 to 1 and soon enough the situation was looking good and there was only 1 bandit left. The last bandit seemed to be the leader of this group and oh boy the fight was tough. "It's one on one now, you have done well, Jaguar Fallen." The bandit leader said calmly. "It seems that I will win this fight, since you seem to be the leader I might just spare your life and turn you in." Jaguar responded. Quickly Jaguar sprinted towards the bandit and threw his sword as a distraction, landing the final blow with his fist on the bandits liver and knocking him out. After tying the bandit up Jaguar went and offered his hand to help the man up who had been lying on the cold ground. "Hey, you saved me. I could have never imagined a noble saving a commoner like me. Thank you, Jaguar." The man said as he got up. "It's no problem, I only did what I felt was right. I haven't seen you around here, what's your name?" Jaguar asked the man. "My name is Quincy Glassbloom and I wish to help you on your journey and help you in any way I can!" Quincy answered. "Isn't your name one that belongs to an archer, so why are you wearing the armour of a knight?" Jaguar asked. "My parents wished me to become a powerful archer, but in the end I decided to be a swordsman." Quincy responded. "I was ambushed from the rooftops and that is the reason I lost to those bandits, I hope my failiure wont lower my chances at joining you" he continued. "Well, I believe you're in luck, I was looking for some extra protection. If you wish to do so, please join me." Jaguar said. The two of them got out of the alley and started walking together towards Jaguars house, also known as the "Feline Den" where he crafts door hinges. The Feline Den works both as a shop, crafting place and a home with multiple bedrooms, when the two newly acquinted friends got there, Quincy was truly surprised by the gigantic walls around a little shop. No one would believe a noble, and a legendary one lives in such a place.
"next chapter, coming soon..." I said ominously, while the one reading scrolls to the end waiting for more.
