~The Story~
In the city of Onisiv, life begins to hush. The sun pulls itself under the western horizon as the moon opens its glowing eye in the east. It is not yet late enough for the citizens to see the moon over the wall. Its massive silhouette never sleeps as it wards off the Briimote, scaly blue lion-like creatures. Their cerulean armor makes a sound like crystal chimes when they move, a beautiful sound that often preceeds death.
The people of Onisiv are to preoccupied by getting to sleep to care that the Briimote have not screamed their fury at the wall. The watchmen notice and search for signs of the Briimote. They shiver as the summer wind brings an unusual breeze. There is a copper scent that made their skin crawl. Through the warm, they shivered.
Wind and scent died away as the Briimote finally screamed. It was not the most enthusiastic fury, but more of contentment. Another gust of copper roused the beasts spirits, their screaming interrupted by their cackles of dark joy. The wathmen looked at the emerging dark from the east, their eyes stinging with the copper smell.
The Briimote became silent, their noise being replaced by thunder. No clouds were in sight to match this thunder. But it was no thunder that approached the sleeping city. It was drums.
Without reason, the wall split with large cracks. Sections fell inward, crushing homes and families. The Briimote screamed as they bolted into the city. In a matter of seconds, the city was dead. The Briimote feasted at last upon the corpses they so patiently watched. The lingering fear made the meat so much sweeter.
A caravan on its way to Onisiv stopped short. The fallen city infested with Briimote would no longer be trading with them. Amidst the uneven sections of wall scattered about in tiers, one of the caravan noticed a small group of children. It seemed as if they had been within the wall the entire time. The caravan member quietly herded the children into the large group.
Later on the caravan's journey, the children were shown to the oligarchy of the town Iirsonily. The children were called the survivors of Onisiv, and thus were permanently marked in ink. These markings were obscure shapes, each child having two for symetry. They were taken in by various people, being raised differently.
~
Years later, Iirsonily has grown into a bustling city. The children have all grown, as well. Most people have forgotten what the markings mean, though the elder citizens still show respect to them.
Word has reached Iirsonily that warriors from across the sea have landed on the coast. They steadily work their way towards the remains of Onisiv. It is expected that the Briimote, which have taken over the ruins, will make short work of the warriors. The sound of their drums carry on for miles ahead of the heralds sent to the different towns and cities for news.

Elanyn forced her eyelids open. It was no good to fall asleep when the time was drawing near. Her hands eased up the wall behind her as her eyes focused in the dim light of sunrise. Yes, people in her line of work often had to be active at odd hours. On the other side of the alley, her commrade stirred. It was Elanyn's turn to steal while her friend was arrested. The two had been working together for three years, splitting whatever they stole. Their home - a miserable network of tunnels beneath Iirsonily - held a small amount of money put on the side. They hoped to buy a better home, one where you could see the sky at all times.
Elanyn looked to the street, waiting for their target to pass. In a few minutes, the game had begun. She felt the adrenaline touch her heart to a faster pace. Her commrade walked swiftly into the approaching light, Elanyn following. A quick bump into the man, followed by a sheepish apology was Elanyn's chance. She crept behind him, untying the obvious satchel which held his coins. She raced back to the alley, listening intently as he realized his money was gone. However, her ears caught an unexpected sound.
She heard metal being unsheathed, followed by gasping. Tucking the satchel out of sight, she ran to her dying friend. For once, their plan had gone wrong. Her friend pulled her closer, whispering gently:
"Buy a house that would make us both proud."

Later that day, Elanyn was sitting by her dear friend's fresh grave. She did not weep, but realized at last how lonely her life had become.
Amidst her thinking, she heard the call of a herald. She raced back to the main square of Iirsonily to hear the news.

Flerris peeked into the local tavern, unsurprised at how busy it was. She pushed the door open, gently closing it behind her. Her cheerful appearance looked out of place in the drunken tavern. She walked up to the bar, smiling at her step-brother. She glanced around, checking to be sure none were listening as she leaned towards his ear. Still smiling, she breathed the words.
"I've heard tell of a herald on his way to Iirsonily. Rumor has it that where he comes from, they've been sending heralds to all the cities from the ocean inward."
She pulled back, stil smirking at her discovery. Her step-brother was only slightly impressed.
"Flerris, if you plan on hearing his news, I suggest you seek him out. Words are wise from the mouth that thinks it, not the one that tells it."
Flerris smiled and raced out of the tavern, running for the main square.

Walking, slowly, but still walking. Jon was a small boy in stature and thin, he looked to be a young girl of maybe eight-eleven. He was about 5'1 or so in height and had an awkward walk about him.
His knees would go in a bit and his back would tend to arch if he went to fast. Others laughed but it wasn't funny, you see his motor functions were leaving him a bit but he would be fine. It would stop, heal, then start up again. Nothing bad.
His big eyes searched over things, he'd woken up early that morning to walk around town in search of some food. Liveing alone and not able to find a job at the moment; the young man would use his adorable charm, though he didn't know he was doing it, and get some people to give him food. Some people were just worried about his health which had been bad since birth.
He hoped to be of age to be drinking at least a light booze so he walked into the tavern and got on one of the bar stools, Jon seriously looked like a child. He knew he'd grow a little sooner or later. When that growth spurt hit he'd be walking tall...well...as tall as he could anyway.
"Pardon..."he said, his voice soft and sounding like a lovely young daims. It was always hard for Jon to get peoples attention with his soft voice but sometimes when men heard it they would blush and listen to him no matter what.
"How much f-for a malt alcohol?"

Maiu walked down a concrete road.Her face showed no emotion.She was headed to the main square to hear the news.The people around her were also heading to the main square.She started to hum a song as she walked to the main square.The song was a very sad song,but Maiu still liked it.The sky was cloudy,and as Maiu kept walking she started to sing quietly.

Amalia stood up and wiped her brow. She loved working on her foster parents' farm, but it was a very hot, difficult job at times. Today, she was weeding the south field. She was almost done, but needed a good stretch.

She was just about to go back to work when her foster mother came out of the house. "Amalia! Could you come in for a minute?"

"Sure, Ma!" Ama walked up to the house, brushing the dirt off her hands and clothes as she went. She walked up the steps to the porch. "What's up Ma? I've almost got the south field done. Another half hour I should be finished."

"Lynara can finish the weeding. I need you to run into town and get a few things for me. Think you can do that?"

"'Course, Ma. I'm 16. I think I'm old enough to handle a bit of shopping on my own."

"Alright. Then go get cleaned up and changed. I'll have the list and money ready for you when you get done."

Amalia went up to her room and grabbed some clean clothes then went into the bathroom and washed up. Once she was changed, she went down and found Ma in the kitchen. "Well, I'm ready to go. What you need me to get?"

Ma handed her a piece of paper and a leather purse. "Here's a list and some money. It aught to be enough to cover it. You should be able to get everything in town, alright?"

"Sure Ma." Ama scanned the list. "I should be able to get it all and get home in a couple hours. I'll see you later, ok?"

"That's fine Dear. But you be careful."

"I will Ma." Ama smiled. Darena may only be her foster mother, but she treated Amalia like she was her own daughter.

Ama made it to town without a problem and started her shopping. But she had only just started the list when she noticed that there seemed to be a bit of excitement coming from the main square. Checking the time, Ama noticed it was still early. I can go see what's going on, do Ma's shopping and still get home in plenty of time. Smiling, she payed for the things she needed from the store she was in and walked up the street to the square to investigate.
