Looking from the top of a hill Chris glanced around at the plains below. Rumors of strange portals appearing all over the continent were becoming more frequent. So frequent in fact that the Government had asked that all members investigate into the fact of these so called rumors. And that’s why he was here.
The land seemed quiet enough, and there didn’t seem to be any portal or openings from what Chris could see. Despite the rumor of weird things happening around here it seemed like a normal trip to the ruins from the south. However the reports said that further in some strange winds have kept people from a specific part of the ruins. And it was his job to check the cause.
With a sigh on his lips Chris crested the hill and began to work his way down. This was going to be a long day….
*In The Ruins*
A new portal opened up out on the northern edge of the ruins. Out of the portal a strong wind blew; carrying a figure violently from inside. The figure landed with an audible ‘thwump’ on the ground; cursing the entire time. A polished shield was strapped to his back as he rolled across the ground causing a painful bump for its possessor. After a few tumbles the figure finally came to a rest; unmoving against a broken wall.
Slowly the figure pushed himself up to a kneeling position and looked around slowly. With practiced movements he tested his body to check for serious injuries. Everything seemed to be in working order; save for the many bruises that now covered his body. He grunted with a pained expression.
Grey Chrisknow was not having a good day. Earlier he was investigating the newly restored castle to see if the new resident needed a body guard. Actually he was going to try and ‘force the issue’ if said employer was reluctant. The next thing he knew he was thrown with incredible force into a door of light. Whatever that light was it was the source of his sour mood.
