The Rising Star

As night would (rather ironically) rise about the Morning Star ranch, faint footsteps would be heard- the horses, pigs and ewes, all locked in their tiny pens and their tiny barns, would look up. A dark figure would walk along the path, up the stairs to the ranch house, and to the door.

Crack.

 

The front door would swing open wide, hitting against the oak door-frame. The sound of slamming echoing through the house as belongings are ripped from chests and tables, and bottles rattling as they're taken from an alchemist's rack. As the figure leaves the ranch house, it enters the barn, leaving behind a broken lockpick and a broken lock, the two resting as a couple on the grass below. Coal would be stolen from the furnaces, along with a fine chainmail tunic.

 

Just as the person leaves the barn, they turn towards a fine, brown stallion, feeding against the grass. A loud rasp of cold-steel against leather would be heard, before wild sounds of pain and resistance roar out from the pen.

Until silence strikes the air. Blood drips along the pen gate and grass, following out as a trail towards the river, until it stops, the blade dropped in the river.

 

And thus, the attack had ended, just as it had begun- with the morning star.

 

A note had been left behind, just like the other attack on Fi'Ceru, scrawled out hastily-

 

"Beasts like these should not be tormented in tiny pens and barns. They need air to breathe, and room to move. If they are not given such necessities, then just like the dead stallion before you, they die. Either by force, or by nature. If this continues, they will all die."

Bertrand frowns, wondering how a corpse can have a corpse.

 

The flies swarm the corpse of the dead, majestic stallion, blood trickling out onto the grass below. It's body has been slashed across savage, rib-cage visible.

Sorry man! Moderator couldn't see the sign himself, and I must've missed the grammar. We'll do better next time, I assure you.

(( Haha no worries fam just found that rather amusing. ))

Bertrand comments to his farmhand at dinner, "We should expand the farm, build some pens and get some animals."

"It seems we have a mad menace in our midst."  Riondil would comment upon hearing the news.
