The Master of Blades
Portal mishaps and sneaky gnomes
Load Full StoryNext ChapterAnother day, another training. There is really not much to a single blademaster Chieftain: train whole morning, sign some papers, train a little more, sign some more papers, slay some invading quillboars, train a little more, go to a chieftain meeting, listen to alliance bullshit, and sign one more paper. wait, I´m usually done after listening to alliance bullshit, but this paper was to approve to our shamans to sommun a Perfect elemental, that is new, of course i signed it and handed that paper to the head shaman.
So my warriors and I have been waiting for them to spawn their Elemental, but in a corner of my eye, i saw a gnome with warlock robes and a devilish grin across his face, i drew my blade and, with blinding speeds, dashed to the gnome and relived some weight off his shoulders, his head. But the spell has already been cast and the portal started to suck us all in, after that, we knew only darkness.
I woke up to a chilling wind and snow gently falling on my face."Northrend?"I asked out loud "when was the last time i´ve been here?" I got up and looked around.
"This is no Northrend." I stated
"Chieftain Yorimmi!" I heard a call
"Yes!?" With a quick motion i turned towards the grunt who called me.
"Thank Spirits You are here, there is olny me and a few grunts here along with two kodo beasts, we have no food and we are freezing." A grunt briefed me quickly.
"Gather some wood in that forest, and take shelter in that cave, from there we will find a way to get out of this frozen wasteland."
"Yes Chieftain!" he answered and soon we started to make our way to the cave. it was large enough to fit a few grunts and two kodos, some grunts returned with logs and branches.
"Set up a fire here, rest and warm up. I`ll Go find something to eat." I stated and they obliged.
I got up and started walking swiftly towards the forest, there i found a beautiful trio of white deers, I walked with the wind to set myself up, dashed to one of them and with three swift strikes, I ended them, tied them up with some vines and made my way back to the cave.
Once I got back, I ordered My grunts to skin the deer and divide the meat amongst the Grunts. "Once the storm dies down we will move out.
They noded and went to cook the meat.
Meanwhile...(Celestia, third person)
Dear Princess Celestia, My friends and I have been seeing some strange bipedal beasts in the everfree forest, we do not know their apperance yet but we know they have a lot of muscles, it is very strange and should be investigated, not because it is weird but because those creatures we have never seen before, Your most faithful student Twilight Sparkle.
Celestia read the letter with a worried and curios expression on her face.
She set that letter down and started writing a new one
Dear Twilight, I am certantly curios and worried about those creatures that you mentioned, I will send some guard so you can deal with them if they become the threat, I will also be sending three most trained guards to train you, Rainbow Dash and Applejack. I wish you luck. Princess Celestia.
She Wrote that quickly and sent it back to Twilight.
"Captain Flash!" She yelled.
"Yes maam!" He answered from the gate a few moments later
"take five battalions of soldiers and make haste to ponyville." She ordered
"Yes maam" He said and left.
Later at Ponyville(Twilight, third person)
Princess Twilight has been preparing a base camp for her arriving troops, She has set up a barracs, a command center, training grounds, so on. She has also set up a wall around Ponyville and some watch towers.
"Soo, Whats this all about Twi?" A rainbow maned pegasus asked.
"Its about the creatures we encountered in the everfree, they might be dangerous, We have a full five battalions coming to Ponyville now, as well as some trainers, to teach me offensive magic and you and AJ some fighting."She answered.
She knew that Aj and RD were always there for their friends, and they needed to know how to fight before they could protect anypony.
"Awesome!" Rainbow Dash said and dashed off (no pun intended)
Meanwhile...(Yorimmu, First person)
"Chieftain, our food and water resource are depleting as we are moving trough this icy wasteland, and I am getting a feeling i haven`t felt in a long time." A grunt told me as we were walking next to the kodos.
"The Demons. Is that what you feel?" I asked cautiously
"Yes, as you know, I am a former frostwolf, and Thrall has taught us how to detect their presence."
"How I feel them is a much sadder tale. Watch your defences, We have some unwanted visitors!!" I announced as i was expecting demons to attack us anytime soon.
"Death to the false chieftain!!" A voice was heard, a very familiar voice.
From the forest, some wolf riders emerged, their eyes burning and their veins blood red, pumping with adrenaline, I almost froze as i realised what has happened to those warriors. MY warriors.
The Demon`s blood, they drank it. Now I was furious. I have drawn my blade and Charged with the intent to wound and not kill, for death was not something a slave deserved, and they were just that: Slaves to the Demons.
Once we closed in, I started slashing at the riders, my katana causing grievous wounds to my targets ,and therefore disabling them.
The fight was short lived as i was far more superior in my mastery of the blade and my warriors have already taken care for the wounds of my now corrupted soldiers.
As if i was calling them, a group of shamans appeared from the forest.
"Chieftain, I am so sorry, if we hadnt tried to summon the elemental, we wouldnt have gotten here and put all of Bloodwrath into danger"He said kneeling to me. I crouched and held him by the shoulder and said:"Don`t beat yourself over it brother, but tell me, have you finished working on that spell that clears mind of all corruptions?" I asked.
He smiled and said"Yes chieftain."
"Good, take care of those wounded Bloodwrath and cast those spells on them."I said and Then i yelled:"Set up a base camp, We are staying here for the night!"
Our grunts went and collected wood for building our structures and a fire. a camp was done by evening and we have gone to sleep except for the first guard shift.
