Gabriel woke up to the cold morning, His father, a tall and sturdy man with a stern expression, shook him gently. "Wake up, son, and get dressed, Gabriel," he said.
Gabriel sat up, confused. It was unusual for his father to be home at this time, as he usually worked in the forrest.
He got out of bed and got dressed in the clothes his father had laid out for him. He told him that today was the day for him to become a Vincetti and that the eldest child of their branch, Henry Lamwell, would be giving a speech later in the day.
After his father left, Gabriel sat alone in his room, spacing out for a moment before his mother called him down for breakfast. Outside, his five cousins were waiting for him.
"Hey, you hear? We graduated and now are becoming Vincetti later on," his cousin Chloe said excitedly.
Melanie, the second eldest, shared in Chloe's excitement and invited him to join them to see their armor. Gabriel accepted their request, and they walked down the street to the Vincetti armory, where their battle uniforms were kept. They entered the armory, and Gabriel saw rows of gleaming armor and weapons lining the walls. The armor was made of the finest materials, such as steel and leather, and were adorned with intricate designs and the Vincetti emblem. The weapons were sharp and deadly, including swords, axes, and maces.
In the center of the armory, there were several training dummies and practice dummy weapons, which were used for training and honing Vincetti's combat skills. There were also several armorers working at various stations, carefully crafting and repairing the armor and weapons.
The armory had a sense of grandeur and power, and Gabriel couldn't help but feel a sense of awe as he looked around.
The armorer greeted them and showed them to their uniforms. Each one was made of the finest materials and tailored to fit them perfectly. They were measured and fitted for their armor, gloves, and boots. The armorer explained the features of each piece and how they would protect them in battle.
As they put on their uniforms, Gabriel couldn't help but feel a sense of awe. They were finally becoming the warriors they had always dreamed of being. They looked at themselves in the mirror, admiring the way the armor fit and how it made them feel.
"You all look like true Vincetti warriors," the armorer said with a smile.
They thanked him and made their way back home, their hearts filled with excitement and determination. They were ready to defend their clan and bring balance to the world.
As they walked down the street, people turned to look at them in awe and admiration. They were the new generation of Vincetti warriors, and they were ready for whatever lay ahead.
As the clock tower bells began to ring, Leopold reminded them that the ceremony was about to start and they needed to go. They all quickly finished their breakfast, got redressed, and headed out the door. As they walked, Gabriel couldn't help but feel a sense of excitement and nervousness. This was it, the moment he had been training for his whole life.
As they arrived in the town center, they were greeted by the eldest member of their branch, Henri Vincent. The crowd was filled with hundreds of other new Vincetti, all dressed in their battle uniforms and adorned with their family's emblem. Each stands in front of a flag on a stand.
Henri stepped up to the podium, his battle armor glinting in the sunlight. He was the epitome of a Vincetti warrior, strong, confident, and ready for battle.
"Welcome, new Vincetti," he began, his voice carrying across the town square. "Today marks the beginning of your journey as protectors of this world. You have trained, you have worked hard, and now you are ready."
He paused, looking out at the sea of new Vincetti, their battle uniforms fitting them perfectly.
"We must not forget the reason for our existence. We are the protectors of the world, the ones who stand against the forces
We are the Vincetti, and we will not falter in our duty.
As we go forth, let us remember the sacrifices of those who came before us. Let us honor their memory by dedicating ourselves to the task at hand. Let us be strong, be brave, and be determined.
Together, we will face any challenge and emerge victorious. We are Vincetti, and we will not be defeated.
Let us go forth and defend the world with honor and integrity."
Henri's words were met with cheers and applause. The new Vincetti were eager to begin their journey and make a difference in the world.
"Now, it is time for you to receive your clan flag," Henri continued. "This flag symbolizes the Vincetti name and what it stands for. It must be protected at all costs, for it is the embodiment of our clan and our purpose."
The new Vincetti reached out and grabbed their flags, each one bearing the emblem of the Vincent clan. They held them high, proud to be a part of such a noble and powerful group.
"Now, go forth, new Vincetti," Henri said, raising his own flag. "Go and make a difference in this world. Protect the innocent and bring balance to the chaos. You are the chosen ones, and we are proud of you."
As Henri finished his speech, he gestured for the crowd of new Vincetti to turn around. They were greeted by a row of 30 adults on horseback, each carrying a satchel.
"These elite messengers will deliver important messages to all Vincetti around the globe, alerting you of missions and dangers and providing information when there is none," Henri announced. "Now, please form into your groups and approach the messengers."
Gabriel and his five cousins made their way to one of the messengers. The messenger handed them a satchel, and Gabriel noticed that it was his family's emblem.
"This satchel contains a special garment for each of you, a reminder of your family, and hopefully, it will push you six not to die," the messenger explained.
Gabriel opened the satchel and pulled out a beautiful, intricately woven handkerchief. It was made from the finest materials and bore the emblem of his family. He tied it on his helmet, He was now a Vincetti, a protector of the world, and he would make his parents proud.
his parents had given it to him as a reminder of their love and support, and he knew that he would wear it with pride as he embarked on his journey as a Vincetti.
But the groups excitement was short-lived as our group was handed papers instructing us to journey two days north to a small town on suspicions that a division of demons would attack. His heart began to race as he realized that this would be his first mission as a Vincetti.
"Are you ready, Gabriel?" his cousin Chloe asked, her eyes shining with excitement.
"I am," he replied, his voice steady.
They set out on our journey, ready to face whatever challenges lay ahead. The demons may be powerful, but they are Vincetti, and they are ready to protect and defend.
As Gabriel and his group set off on their journey, they donned their full armor and flag on their back, which was heavy and cumbersome. It had been drilled into them from a young age to be able to wear it while running long distances and fighting battles, but even so, it was a challenging task.
The first day of their journey was grueling. The sun beat down on them mercilessly, and the constant clanking of their armor was a constant reminder of the weight they were carrying. But they pushed on, determined to reach their destination.
As they walked, they encountered rough terrain and treacherous paths, but they were well-trained and able to navigate it with ease. They stopped only briefly to rest and eat, knowing that time was of the essence.
On the second day, they began to see signs of the approaching town. The landscape changed, becoming more populated and industrialized. They could see the smoke from factories rising in the distance and hear the sounds of people and machines.
Finally, they reached the town, weary but ready for battle. They had completed their journey and were prepared to face whatever demons lay ahead.
