With his shout everyone came to a halt " release lord Batsa and no harm will come to this child." the knight spoke his fear evident to everyone no matter how hard he tried to hid behind his brave facade.
The huntsman looked at him then me then back to him " release the child first and I shall release your lord" he said as he placed his sword right on Batsa neck. "No! what guarantee do I have you will keep your word." The huntsman just sneered when he heard that " do you think I am one of you dogs of the drakon empire? I am a Huntsman and a huntsman's word is his bond " his words clearly angered the Knights of the Drakon empire but they were powerless against him.
After a short internal struggle the knight finally released me to the huntsman who then released Batsa who was still glaring at him as he was escorted by his knights out of the remains of my village soon it was left with just the huntsman and I in the village at that moment I fell to the ground crying and mourning my friends and family.
A short distance away from the village Batsa was venting out his frustrations as the men around him watched as he lashed out,"Arrgh! how dare that bastard! how dare he look down on me!Arrgh! dammit dammit all." they were well aware that when he got into such a mood getting close to him was the same as giving up one's life.
Suddenly without warning he turned to one knight, the knight was the same knight who had saved him and motioned for him to fall out which the knight did once the knight was out of line he stepped up to him with a calm face but his men were not deceived they were all well aware of how this lord was his calm face was much worse than when he was rampaging around " you were the one who exchanged the child's life for my own were you not." he asked calmly. " yes sir!" " good, good very good." every one was confused it sounded as though he was praising him but at the same time there was a hidden threat in there somewhere.
Whilst every one was still pondering over his words the sound of a blade being drawn out of its sheet was heard then the Knights head was liberated from his body. A chill went down the backs of every knight present
" let this be a warning to all of you, as knights of the Drakon empire you must never and I repeat never show mercy to neither your enemies nor allies as showing mercy to allies is the same as having pity on them and that is the greatest insult to a knight of the Drakon empire do I make myself clear?" "...." all knights fell silent as the heard their Lords speech they still couldn't believe what had happened. " DO I MAKE MYSELF CLEAR?!!!!! " "YES SIIIRRR!!!!" the Knights shouted in unison afraid that if the weren't loud enough it would be off with their heads next.
" strip him of his armour and leave his body to the beasts he does not deserve a warriors burial. " those were Batsa last words as he head to treat his wounds.
The Knights were once again shown just how ruthless their lord was, he would not even show mercy to the dead.
