A frustrated hero Adventurers
We returned to the small restaurant where the guild was located. To our surprise there were dozens of adventurers, apparently they had arrived at dawn. The old man was a bit uneasy about this situation, so we walked among them all until he saw the receptionist. The little hobbit looked a little tired, perhaps from having to give information to so many people every five minutes. I wasn't sure if he was the only one in charge of this.He was sitting at a table just jotting some things down in a book.-Hi...hello...-Hello... adventurers...-We came to talk to you, we managed to count the dragons, there are fourteen, thirteen hatchlings and the mother.-Mmmm, I see, thank you. I'll keep that in mind when more adventurers come.-And how many have come?-Hundreds of them, and it hasn't even been half a day.-I see, then the mission will begin in a matter of days... and the guild leader.-He will come tomorrow, and a part of the village will be evacuated. Other adventurers gave reports of
A frustrated hero Fire
It was like a nightmare, a part of the harvest was burning. Many adventurers were running aimlessly. I went to the place where I was staying to get my sword and some armor that the old man had brought. I ran into several people who, like me, did not know what to do in the middle of the fire.I did not see the old man anywhere and I began to despair a little. There was a lot of chaos and the smell of smoke reached here. It was imminent that in a matter of minutes the flames would reach this place, the more I walked, the more scared I became. I didn't know if I would face one of the dragons, nor how strong the little ones were. [...]Luckily I drew my sword quickly and put on full armor. I headed for the grasslands where the battle was taking place. There were many heroes around that place and the elves began to use their magic to extinguish the flames that were consuming everything.One of them out of nowhere cast an ice spell and luckily the fire could be controlled, but we were not
A frustrated hero Tough battle
I was running with several adventurers in the middle of a battle against dragons. I felt happy because I felt it was my moment, but it was not. My happy face was gone in a moment. There were nine of us running with a lot of confidence that we could do something. In front of us the adventurers we were going to help, died in front of our eyes. Almost simultaneously five of the eight dragons that were around spat fire at them from different places. We could do nothing for them. It was too late.I was a bit shocked and stopped in my tracks. The other adventurers were still running as if nothing. As if something else inspired them to endanger their lives, even though there was no hope that we could win.The smell of burning grass became too intense and annoying.I stood and watched as the eight adventurers reached those beasts and started fighting like it was nothing. They were very sure of what they were doing, and obviously they were right, those swords were not normal. From one moment
A frustrated hero Travel
The next morning I went to talk to the little hobbit to see if they would give me a reward or something like that, plus I had to fix my face a bit and change my appearance so that no one would recognize me again. As I walked in the direction of that place. I noticed that the beard I had was growing a little, but I needed it more. In a week I would be quite noticeable, but I had to change enough to go unnoticed, luckily for me the wizard's spell no longer worked on me. Now I was no longer a danger to anyone, and I was free to go on any mission.I saw many people arriving from different cities, by the way they were dressed, perhaps to take the remains of their relatives or to say goodbye to them. I was carrying the handkerchief in my hand. So everyone noticed it, such complexion they all knew what it was for, but many looked at me because of that. In the middle of the people I decided to keep it in one of my pockets and avoid being robbed or asked about it.[...]I arrived at the resta
A frustrated hero The letters
Shortly after that I got out of there, without the help of the helmet. I had to pay about fifty coins that I had received on the mission for the change in the face. It was worth a try and live an adventurer's life without so much trouble.I headed to the guild to ask about the old man. Maybe there they knew where his body was, I had to carry the helmet in my hand and see if anyone recognized me, besides I did not want to wear it I felt it was in the way a little, but as I walked I saw a lot of movement of military and soldiers of this city. They talk to the merchants and fruit sellers. Most of them were humans, only a few dwarves were selling accessories. The last time I was here something like this had not happened, despite that I walked to my destination and preferred not to waste time on other things.The soldiers now wore their metallic armor with a red cloak, which also had their emblem of some swords. They were all imposing order with their weapons.[...]I arrived in a few minu
A frustrated hero Arrested
The next day I woke up because of the noise coming from outside, despite sleeping, I still felt very tired, but I had to see what was going on in this city, I could hear arguments and clashes of weapons.I looked out of the window. I saw soldiers and guards arguing loudly, it appeared that something had happened that upset both sides. It looked like they were going to fight each other.The people I was present could not intervene, I preferred to watch how this problem was resolved, but everything pointed to the fact that it would not end easily.Maybe Alejandro, or someone in a higher position could intervene, but they were not around. The situation became much more complicated and they began to fight, each one took out their swords, to show that this was serious.This frightened the civilians who witnessed everything that was happening. Many hid to avoid getting hurt in the fight that was about to begin.Out of nowhere a person in yellow and silver armor appeared. He looked like a h
A frustrated hero Winter
I was in one of the pools in the hot springs relaxing, but from one moment to the next the place started to get cold, the steam stopped coming out. It seemed that the water from the upper part where the river came from was very cold. Not even the objects used in the place could cope with the temperature. I felt a little sick and got out of there. At least I had bathed quickly in the short time I was in that place.I put on the clothes I had, even though they were still a little dusty. From being in that dungeon.I left that room and walked down the lonely hallway. Until I got to the reception, but I didn't see anyone. So I left the place, to my surprise the woman who was in charge of the place was outside and looking at the sky. I went to her side and tried to observe what she was seeing. The clouds coming this way were quite dark, so a storm was approaching.-Hey, are you going to stay here," I asked her.-No, I'll close this place and go to the city. The river could rise a lot and t
A frustrated hero Beach
As the guild leader had told me, I went on a float to a coastal town, it was a place where trade was done and there were some pirates who raided ships. I found it interesting and it was the best for me. It was quite an interesting experience, besides I could not stand the cold and much less to be locked up, but unfortunately I had to change carriage on each trip. Since the place where I was going was too far away. It took me a week to get there, and I could not travel alone, I had to go with more people, since the money would not be enough. I had to pay for my lodging to rest for several nights.When I finally arrived to that city an impressive sun hit me in the face. It was not normal, maybe it was much stronger than most cities or it was much lower than the sea level. It just made me want to go for a swim, and take some of the heat off, but I didn't come here for a walk. I couldn't get distracted. I had to finish the mission that awaited me quickly. Then I had to get back to Altam
