[QUOTE="mkb152, post: 1433140, member: 17588"] Alejandra Intro Alex was bored. Then again, she was always bored. The life of a noble was boring, and it was about to get worse. Rumors were going around that she was to be betrothed to that slimeball Miguel. It disgusted her that was going to have to marry someone she could probably beat in a duel. Now that was a nice thought! Alex got up. She brushed the realities of Spanish noble politics out of her head. She needed to do something; in two weeks, they would leave their summer villa to go back to Madrid. Plus, her father and mother were gone. Time for a little trouble, she thought. I'll sneak out and go for a little swim. If I'm back before dusk, noone will know. It was two miles to the river. Walking under some trees, Alex felt a strange feeling that she was not alone. She turned around. Bandits! Four hulking men, filthy and armed with daggers looked at her. "That's her! We'll be rich!" Alex turned and ran for the river. Maybe these ruffians can't swim, she thought. She reached the river with the bandits right on her tail. SHe jumped in and began to swim across as the bandits stayed on the bank. Something grabbed he leg and pulled her under. Alex fought against the smal hand grabbing her . She struggled to the surface and swam to the side. She looked down and saw that she was covered in filth. She looked up and saw buildings instead of sky, and fainted. I'd never seen that, the half-elf thought. A woman, dressed strangely, appearing out of nowhere in the ditch? He picked her up and drug her the bank. Oh well, the Ring-Giver thought, I'm headed to the Market Ward. I'll just take her with me. {BTW - I know this isn't the best writing, but trust me, that things get cool when the campaign gets going } [/QUOTE]
