"I'm fine Anna please keep your voice down... wait.." staring blankly at his blood covered hands he remembered... 'was I killed? But why? I just wanted some soda! Ok ok Sam calm down you need to process'
The young elf Anna leaned in closer to inspect her young lord "are you sure you're alright?" Feeling her breath against his face he blushed as he looked away from her 'does she have to be so sexy?! I mean Dixie was cute but compared to this girl she might as well been playing in the minor leagues.' As these thoughts ran through his head he heard footsteps coming closer from the forest he quickly reached for the half sword at the girls side.
Anna noticed his sudden movements and was shocked to see her young lord fall off of the makeshift cot face first into the dirty 'what has gotten into this idiot, I maybe sworn to protect him but how am I expected to do that when he is constantly hurting himself' chocking a laugh she quickly grabbed her bearing and looked towards the guard in light leather armor coming out of the woods "anything to report James?"
"Nothing ma'am whoever attacked the young lord is no where to be found probably left after thinking he finished the job" slowly bowing at the young lord who was currently to weak to keep himself off the ground and sat on a log nearby.
"Alright we'll double the guard tonight and move first light. Please try to rest my lord we have another day before we get to the territory, itll be a tough journey."
'Territory? Or right I guess the body I'm in was recently given the title after he discovered a small plot of fertile land, the manor and keep that was awarded to him had just finished being built he was on his way when I took over' reviewing his memories he recalled that this bodies previous owner was a total looser! No friends,no girl, and barley any money, he'd say he was unlovable if it wasn't for all the maids and brothels he frequented, the man was a creep as well. Sighing he closed his eyes and started to sorry through his new experiences.
'Huh? I'm only 18? Atleast I'm a bit younger in this life.' He opened his eyes and spotted the young elf Anna not far from him oiling her blade "Anna?"
"Yes my lord?"
"How old are you?"
Anna's face was unmoving as she thought about all the young lords affairs and sighed internally 'he better not be thinking about bedding me again!'
"I'm 18 my lord, but that is in human tears years so about 6 in eleven years but I am only a half elf so I age much faster then my full blooded kin."
'She looks younger than me strange.'
He closed his eyes and fell back asleep.
