He didn't know what to do, or where to go, or who to talk to. Although she was not the only one who seemed not to know very well what to do.

A guard at the Abbey gate looked at me and waved my attention.

-Good morning Little Girl. Do you want to give us a hand? You should go talk to him Sheriff McBride.

I decided to do what the guard proposed to me, given the indications that the man who was standing in the first corridor of the Abbey gave me, it must be McBride.

-Good morning, are you McBride?

-Yes, do the guards send you?

-That's how it is. I am at your disposal for whatever you need.

We were talking for a long time. With him I understood that the war is won with battles, the great armies marched to the fronts in distant lands, while in the lands the peasants and citizens face small dangers that do not leave the fields quiet, they are small things, but they undermine the confidence of the inhabitants of the regions. Kobolds, Defias and wild animals were a concern in the area, and McBride and his men were dedicated to keeping all dangers at bay, although it was a long endeavor with no clear end.

That valley closed to the south by the wall housed to the north a cave full of strange beings, neither humans nor rodents the size of a child who mined without rest. McBride sent me to that cave to investigate it and kill some of those creatures.

I approached one of them that was isolated, I grabbed the dagger tightly, supporting the thick part against my arm and attacked him from behind, at that moment I felt strong, powerful, as I had never felt in my life, happy and scared. the time. Although all those feelings did not last long, just the time it took for that bug to turn around and attack me. And that's where all my euphoria and happiness ended. He stirred and didn't know what to do or how to defend myself. Little by little, I don't know how, I managed to finish him off. He fell to the ground still dying and died at my feet. I sat at his feet watching the blood soak through the grass. I could not express what I felt, it was a life that I had reaped, the first of many that I would end.

I got up and went about my business.

When I finished I went back to McBride who rewarded the kills with a few coins. A large amount was made to me, I have never had so much money in my life.

When the man who was tanning leathers on the side called me and gave me another order, which when I finished he rewarded me with some boots, I finally understood how everything was going, what I should do from now on, first I had to get money to buy u get better pieces of my armor and maybe some better dagger?

A young woman dressed in a light colored gown approached me.

-Would you like to join our brotherhood?

What? What was this brotherhood thing about? What do I tell them? Was she an envoy of the rogues? It didn't give me the impression. So without even knowing very well what to do, I preferred to decline the offer.

-No, thanks, that's fine.

And I got no answer, he turned around and left.

Was he angry?
