The large winged creature flew through the sky. The Cereash warriors on its back were all siting in their own holes in the creatures and back as the wind blew past them. All but one. Jonok was standing atop the creature and stood tall and proud as he and his men approached their destination. The large creature flew from town to town dropping off a single Cereash to offer the services of the Mercenary's Guild and give an open invitation for anyone to join. The creature finally settled down on the ground near the center of the continent. There Jonok jumped down to the ground and looked at the site. "This will do nicely." With that he through open his cloak and began the spell. Hours later it was done. The city was complete. Jonok fell to one knee in exhaustion. He dropped the various totems, all spent and unusable. The last four Cereash helped him up and helped him to the Mercenary's Guild building.

Jonok awoke hours later. He slowly rose out of his bed and walked to the window of his dorm. The sun was beginning to set. No more work would be done this day. The halls of the Guild buildings were empty, but he knew they would soon begin to fill up.

Blood had really had a place to call home. He had always been run out of city before anyone ever got to know him. The only person who every got to know him was now dead. Blood was standing on the edge of a cliff where from his high place he could see the guild encampment. Maybe just maybe he could find a home.

Liniz Fa and her company of Heavy Cavalry looked like a Kalorian divison, except the fact that all signs and sigils of that Empire had been shorn off. The only emblem visable was on Liniz's armor, an exact replica of her form bethroled's, a fist cluthing a handful of lightning bolts. "Ah, so the rumor's were correct a Mercinaries Guild has come to Gorgraz. Perhaps now we shall have a home, and a family to protect us from the accursed Knighthood." Giving a signal the company began to make it's way to the city at a trot.

From a distance Gun watched the main guild hall for signs of life. "So... a Rogue vampire and a company of people like me. Lets check this place out," he said quietly to himself. He got up and started to head slowly towards the distant building. Judging that he would make it there about two hours after the vampire.

Jonok looked out from the Guilg Hall's keep to find several visitors approaching. He hurried down to the main gate and awaited the new arrivals, with his staff in his right hand, firmly planted on the ground. His white fur gleamed in the sinking sun's light.

Blood came to the entrance fully cloaked. when he reached Jonok he gave a long bow. "Are you willing to except a rouge vampire into your ranks?" He waited patiently for the answer he had heard most often.

And a company of Kalorian "outlaws" Liniz sneered the word. "Those who would not conform to the Kalorian ideals of right, is should say."

"All of you will get you chance to gain acceptance. All that is required is a simple test. Each of you will fight me so I may evaluate your skills. The fight has no rules, no rules except no killing. You, vampire, tell me your name." Jonok said as the walked over to him.

Jonok's staff was just as quickly ready. "Your name." Jonok took up a defensive stance and waited.

"Jonok, Frostwarrior and Guild Master. Tis a pleasure." Jonok took a few paces back and said, "Now, attack me, but remember no killing blows." Jonok took up another defensive pose.

Blood slowly drew his sword, and kissed the cross around his neck.and leaped up higher than any man ever could. then shot 3 daggers of dark magic( these were not a full power so they only stung a little) then came down with a overhead swing, stopping inches from the guild masters head. "Is that good" asked blood. "Now i believe you were not trying to hard otherwise this would have been a lot harder."

"You're right, it would have been a lot harder. Now lets see how well you defend yourself." As he said this he began a series of strikes with his staff, the first of which, a straight jab with the end of the staff, came as he said "yourself".

Liniz watched the fight closely, watching the style of her soon to be opponent. Jonok was fast for his size, very agile, but Liniz knew that manuverablity was on her side. Jonok would tower over her was many times stronger than she was, but Liniz knew with the right combat style the strongest warrior can be taken down quickly.

Jonok began a flurry of attacks. His staff whizzed through the air in a continuous motion, very fast, fluid, and dangerous attacks. The staff moved fast enough the dust on the ground was beginning to be kicked up into the air.

Gun watched the test from a distance. "So, there's a reason that the old guy is guild master, beyond money," he said quietly to himself. "Lets wait and see how the traitor does..."

Great storm clouds formed overhead and an evil wind blew as Fabador rose from the ground and watched with evil crimson eyes as the battle unfolded before him "Hmmmm It looks ok, but it needs a touch of evil before I can call it home." Fabador strode up beside the battle hanging back from the main body of people and leaning against the wall of the city. All the while observing anything and everything that lay before him.

Strike after strike this guy was relentless with his attacks. Never the less blood had just managed to keep the staff from hitting him with great difficulty.

Just as quickly as the onslaught had begun it ended. Jonok suddenly was standing up straight with his staff planted on the ground. He looked up and saw the storm clouds coming. They were not natural clouds. "We should move this inside." with out giving anyone a chance to respond, he turned on his heels and began walking toward the door of the Guild Hall, beckoning for everyone to follow. Once inside the Hall, Jonok took Blood to the Chamber of Trials, ,where most tests were given. The Chamber of Trials is enchanted so that no sound enters or leaves when the door is closed, not even a vibration. Once they were inside and the door was closed, Jonok walked to the center of the room and turned to Blood. "You are doing well. But there is one test left, the hardest one of all. Are you ready for the final test?"
(OOC: Sorry if anyone didn't want their characters moved inside. If you would rather do it yourself, say something and I will fix this post)

((I'm assuming that we are NOT in the room...))
Liniz sat on a bench outside the chamber, sharpening her Dirk slowly. She looked at "her" sword the stole Blade of the Knights, called Fliremet Eveten..Ever Fire. The faint flames flickered out of the scabbard, a simple blackend wood scabbard. She sheathed her Dirk and drew Ever Fire. The faint flames flickered all around it, Liniz just looked at it.

As the clouds gathered and the goup moved inside, Gun sighed and stood up... so much for watching the trials without being seen. Stupid dark magic. Pulling his cloak around him to ward of the chill that accompanied the clouds, he set off at a slow walk towards the still distant guild hall...
