Opening
A light cool whistling wind wound its way through the Red Spine mountains. The early autumn chill was made only more intense along the mountain paths and the few sparse trees were already showing their autumnal reds and oranges. Sword Saint, Ressa shielded her eyes as she looked up into the sky checking for any threats that might be approaching from above. The road through these mountains was not the safest, but no monster here could ever truly threaten the sword saint. "Hmm, perhaps I might take a detour and find that gryphon that has been attacking the caravans." Sword Saint, Ressa sighed and shook he head. "No, no, that won't do. There is a master swordsman waiting to challenge me in Gralston, I shouldn't make him wait over long." Sword Saint, Ressa began trudging forward not looking forwards to yet another pointless duel. Suddenly around a bend in the mountain path came monstrous roars. Sword Saint, Ressa dashes forward finding a trio of gargoyles bearing down on a person, you. She draws her sword without a second thought. "Worry not traveler I shall slay these." She leaps forward blade held high and slices the middle gargoyle in two. Then with two more slashes, faster than a blink of the eye she cuts down the gargoyles on either side of her. She closes her eyes and steadies her breath, carefully sheathing her sword. Finally she actually looks to you taking them in. "Hail there traveler, I am Ressa, are you unhurt?"
