a forest stands tall, untouched by the war. four metal walls rise from the ground, creating a descent fort. a lone figure stood in the middle with his skeletal hands crossed in front of him, a hood covering his face.

A young boy walked through to the forest. He kept quiet, looking around. The place was...dark. But it looked free of strife. THat was a good sign. Right?
Shrugging, he went in. For better or for worse, he was about to find out. It had been a while since he saw a place free of conflict in Tlidnur. Maybe this would be the exception. Then again, maybe it was free of strife because they feared the occupant. He would find out shortly.

(i do things in first person unless its a narritive part, just so you know.)
[Kirf forest, fort: me] i turn in the fortress, feeling something humanoid enter the forest, "interesting..." i disappear into the shadows.
[Kirf forest, outlaying areas: Azoth, me]
i appear about 30 feet from the boy, consealed in Shadow Magic(mix of dark and wind), watching.

Azoth looked around curiously as he moved through the forest. Eventually, he got the sense that someone was watching him. A natural instinct he acquired while training to be an assassin. As he looked around, he continued moving, acting as if he ignored the feeling. He kept his eyes out, his magic ready to move against the one that watches him.

[Kirf forest, outlaying areas: Azoth, me]
i watch the intruder with keen interest, floating above the ground that was littered with dead branches and pinecones, as well as pine straw. there were no pine trees in the area, mostly oaks and maples.
i flick my hand as a branch snaps on the newcomers right side.

Azoth heard the snaps from the side. But he didn't react, continuing forward. But as he continued, he paused, slowing to a stop as he looked around, feigning being lost. He turned around, looking back the way he came, scratching his head. Just before holding out his hand and letting darkness blast out in the direction of the figure watching him. "You can stop hiding now," he said quietly.

[Kirf forest, near fort: Azoth, me] the blast hits nothing, going on to blast a tree.
a deep raspy voice echoes out from the shadows, "you do not belong, but i may find a use for you."
i appear behind you with my hood up, hands crossed in front of me. the green flames that were my eyes were visible in the otherwise covered face. "interesting... an immortal... how few of you i get as visitors..."

"And who would you be?" Azoth asked, unimpressed. A sword was drawn in a flash, a deep black one held at the ready before him.

"interesting..." i look at the blade as the udødelig embed it into the ground from nowhere. "I am that which is, and that which is not. I am the Master Assassin. I am... The Shadow of Death." I turn and float off toward the fort, my blades following. "come if you would like to stay... if not, i will make you stay..."

Upsilon wondered through the forest at a slow, leisurely pace. He took in his surroundings with care, observing the beauty of nature around him.
"Tree, flower, tree, tree... some kind of small creature? It climbs through the trees, but I do not know what it is. I know what the trees are, the flowers too. There are dead leaves beneath my feat, and I can presume they are from the trees.
"Yet I don't know what the animal is. Does this mean I was not born in the forest? Or is this no indication of my lost memories...?"
