I'm going to put this here as I don't want to start a new thread for it, and as the subject seem to be appropriate:

Thead Halstead’s pub was perpetually empty. Outside, the bustle and conversations from Fisgeal drifted through the open door along with the scent of the stables just opposite. Through the threshold strode Prometheus Wolfhair, who deftly undid his chin strap, slipped his helm off this head and tossed it across the room into the corner. Thead looked worried, annoyed. The White Company clan leader, took a seat, his armor, mismatched, patched, scraped…matched his face and arms: the angry lines imprinted there from hundreds of battles. Hair gray, beard cropped short and grey except where a jagged scar across his jaw line seemed to bleach it white.

"Beer" he said. And before Thead could offer a soup made from flowers, mushrooms and spider webs, Prometheus followed with… "Just beer." The barbarian unbuckled his sword and let it slide clattering to the floor.

A moment later his brother, Ulixes, entered. Shorter, both younger and older at once. A slighter build, bow casually held across this smooth leather jerkin, slipped into the pub. "It happened again didn’t it." Not a question really, a statement of fact, a probing sentence.

Prometheus lifted the ceramic mug to his lips and let the beer slide comfortably into his mouth. Then nodded.

"We were at Stone. And they were there." Prometheus took another drink. "I ran up the hill, pressed against the wall, then hit the door with everything I had. It didn’t take long before it was in splinters…then I was face to face with him."

"Who?" called Thead from across the room.

"Jippy!" roared Prometheus across the room in a voice the froze the bartender. Outside in the town the voices stopped for a moment. Then slowly started again: trading magna for useless items, asking where the bookcase was, deciding their fate in a hundred little ways.

"Shut up." Ulixes warned. "And what is said here does not get repeated." The hunters piercing blue eyes, pierced the barkeep into silence.

"I couldn’t do it." Prometheus drank again. "I couldn’t do it… Oh, I wanted to. Believe you me. Klutu was there too. I raised my sword and remembered all the times we stood, at the gate, facing the ignis horde. Wait for them, see them mass, with their greedy evil faces. We few: Gage, SoL, Dingbat, Faith, and the rest who would stand in the darkness against odds and be washed away like driftwood before an angry sea." He paused looking in his cup, musing. "I’d like to say we few, we happy few. We band of brothers. For he those nights that shed their blood with me shall always be my brother." Then drinking, "Maybe I’m getting too old for this."

Jaud popped her head around the doorframe, "Goats are attacking Herb again." She said in her heavily accented French then disappeared.

"You go." He said quietly to Ulixes. "You go. I live with too many ghosts."

This is the best story here. Great job Prom!! Keep it up. Maybe now that a certain knight (who I won't mention out of respect for a certain dev) doesn't play Syrtis anymore you can take over writing from a Syrtian point of view.

Big +1!!! Great job!

Nice Story Prom

I Miss Those Nights

Damn good story Prom...

"I couldn’t do it." Prometheus drank again. "I couldn’t do it… Oh, I wanted to."

I also have the same issue with a select few... I usually wait for them to strike the first blow, makes it easier
