The room is barren and plain. No windows, only a hardwood door with a bronze handle. My head turns to take it all in and see what else is in the room. An empty bookcase, a bed that i am now lying on, and a desk with what seems to be clothes and weapons on it. The mattress is hard and to a normal person would be uncomfortable. I prefer it, luxury never suited me. I move to get off the bed and feel the tightening in my muscles as i stretch and bend to raise myself. All i am wearing is my undergarments. I don't know how i came to be in this place but i intend to find out. I walk towards the desk and begin to dress myself. First my pants checking of course to make sure all my belonging are still inside the pockets, then my shirt, followed by my shoes, gauntlets, my belt and then my trenchcoat. I stop to look at the coat, iave had it for years and the patchwork design of it never ceases to make me smile when i look upon it. Now i look to my arms. My Long Sword is the first to be strapped on, followed by my balanced throwing knives. The Sword sits on my left hip and the knives on my right. Finally across my back i strap on my Great Sword. After i finish i check the edges of all my weapons to make sure they are still sharp. When iam done i look to the door and walk towards it. Thoughts are in my head. Whats on the other side? If anything is it friend or foe? What does it want with me? The answers will come later all that matters is finding out how i came to be here. My hand closes around the handle and twistes. Theres breathing on the other side, i hear it. Its slow, calm and most importantly......Human. I push the door open a little more and i hear the breathing quicken. I sense fear but the human does not run. To test its resolve i swing the door open and look at it firmly in its eyes. Its a man dressed in light armor holding a spear. He looks at me for a moment then manages the words: " Your awake, didnt think you would be waking anytime soon the way you looked when we brought you in. My Lord said to send escort you to him when and if you got up and about. This way please........Sir."
I follow the man.
I have no questions for him. His Lord on the other hand better have an explaination for all of this. If not then his head will roll.
