Noble Scion
Crow, seeker of shiny things
"Royal Marksman Eliza Smith - Missing, possibly dead"
The archer thought as she fought through gasping breaths as her blood-stained hand shoved a rag onto a large, painful claw mark reaching from the base of her right set of ribs all the way up to her shoulder bone. The cause of her wound? Possibly still chasing, possibly content with inflicting a severe wound, but Eliza didn't care as she bled to death on a tree. "What a way to go.. after three wars, hundreds of murders and several assassinations.. I guess it's only fitting that I die to the devil itself..." she spluttered as she began the arduous, painful process of applying her last few bandages, praying that she didn't faint from blood-loss before the wound was dealt with.
This was her second day in the country after their failed attempt to conquer some village, and she was certain that this place was some incarnation of hell on earth. Her party was murdered in cold-blood by things she'd never seen before, and wanted to never see again. They hadn't even made it to the town, what a disgrace.. But that was not important to Eliza anymore. She just wanted to live out the week, never mind fulfill her objective.
The agony from moving was unbearable, but she began sliding her way up the slick tree bark slowly as her desperate mind edged her onward, helping her to ignore the pain. Once she was up, she began creeping in the only direction she knew, forward, and away from the slaughter and all those monsters, towards any form of civilisation at all. Her bow still strapped to her back and a quiver with a measly five arrows left around her waist, her green uniform grippingher body tightly from sweat and blood, the great Royal Marksman Eliza Smith made her way to what she hoped would be away from those demons of destruction and death, her eyes blurring with her teeth biting down on nothing as she resisted the urge to scream out her fear and pain so as to not give away her position
