A Life For A Life

Several hours earlier, at the Northern Port of Eden, soldiers are being loaded in ships. Several had already sailed. The King's boat was the last.

"Commander! Commander!" A lieutenant called out running towards the King's Sail. The commander stepped out and eased the young lieutenant. The King followed behind.

The lieutenant bowed on sight of the king, "Your Highness, there are some interesting people here to see you."

"And who might these interesting people be?" The King asked, placing a hand on his sword's hilt. The lieutenant didn't reply. They came in person. A good number of them. Dressed in dark blue cotton, bear skins and wolf skin. Behold the Great Eisfalle Family.

"Your Highness," the head of house greeted with a short bow of the head.

"Lord Eisfalle. Why not take the southern route?"

"You see we have a thing for the dramatic entrance. Sailing happens to be one of them. You are all about to get the sail of your lives."
