The Sage of Einar

Declan, a small farmer from the kingdom of Ulster, held his rusty sword while taking a deep breath, as at his feet was the corpse of a woman.

Despite that, he kept completely still, completely ignoring the battle that was going on around him.

This because he did not understand what was happening and how he had arrived at that moment. The only thing he knew was that the confrontations began with words.

However, these increased in intensity after a while so they ended up leading to blows, however what he can remember exactly.

It is that arrow that pierced the eye of one of the many warriors in that place. After this, it simply became a confrontation where only the fittest could survive.

At that moment, Declan came out of his thoughts when a blow knocked him to the ground. He could feel that he was gasping for air that his entire chest ached.

This is because they had beaten him with a wooden club, looking quite angrily at the woman who had beaten him and who was about to kill him.

He can see how someone half beheaded the woman with an ax, so Declan got up and decided to escape from that place.

He knew that if he stayed he would simply die because there was no way he could save himself in a place where everyone was an enemy.

In order to escape quickly and completely avoid unnecessary fights, he looked around him and could see a small wooden structure in the distance.

So he quickly started running towards it for that he write the clashes that were around the road.

As he did so, he watched sadly as those who had once been his companions were killing each other.

It was simply a real carnage, what is happening in that place. While he walked, he could see how a warrior buried his two axes in the neck of a farmer.

However, Declan felt a great deal of fear as he realized that the Warrior was staring at him.

'Fuck…'

Knowing that he could not fight against that warrior who had more experience and better weapons than him, he decided to escape from that place, for that without thinking twice he pounced among a group of warriors who were fighting.

As he advanced, he used his hands to push anyone in his path without caring at all.

However, the only thing he was careful about was the warriors who seemed moderately dangerous, as he was completely sure that if he approached, they would be immediately killed.

The warrior who was walking after Declan was not so aggressive towards his companions as he did not hesitate for a single minute to assassinate anyone who would cross his path with his pair of axes.

Declan who was advancing, was able to reach the limits of a camp that was completely in ruins and had some tents on fire.

So without wasting time he entered the first camp, where there were not a lot of enemies, so he would try to find a high area in that place to escape.

Upon entering the perimeter of the camp, she had to swing his sword in order to assassinate the boy who was running towards him.

That made him quite angry because he felt quite uncomfortable after having murdered that child, however he did not have time to complain.

So looking at the dying boy who was on the snow he ended his life, because it was seen that he was suffering because of the wound in the stomach that he had done.

With his sword, he pierced the heart of the little boy and continues with his path being a little more cautious because he did not want to be attacked by any of the many enemies that were in that place.

Moving slowly but cautiously, he avoided stepping on the corpses on the ground because somehow he felt bad about doing so.

As he advanced through the camp, he could see in the distance a large group of boxes that seemed to be able to support his weight.

So he started running towards them, because he needed to find a way that would take him away from that place. On his way, he could meet a warrior who was covered in blood.

Declan, when he saw that he could not avoid it, he had no choice but to rush towards him with his rusty sword. Luckily, the warrior was completely blinded because the blood had entered directly into his eyes.

So easily the sword pierced the chest of that warrior who fell lifeless in the snow, pulling his sword from that corpse and after advancing a little I can reach the boxes.

Where he once climbed, he can see how horrible the battlefield was, this because the great density of enemies that were in that place was something that made him swallow hard.

This because the enemies were so close together that they were easily visible from afar. At that moment, he understood that perhaps his best option would not be to try to flee.

Rather, he would have to find a place where he can hide until the battle will come to an end, because it was not possible for him to escape without dying in the attempt.

Knowing this, he began to look at all the places that he was near and could see that not far from where he was there was a water drain near the castle.

So he went there in a desperate attempt to survive. When he got off the boxes, he started running towards that place.

However, before he could advance more than 4 steps, he felt an ax dig into his leg, so he turned his head and realized that the warrior who was chasing him had thrown an ax at him.

Ignoring the pain, he continued to advance, as he was not willing to stay to face an enemy that could clearly kill him in combat.

Because he was injured, he decided to take a risky route in which he walked quite close to the warriors who were fighting because that way he could try to get them to fight the warrior who was chasing him.

At first his tactic did not seem to have paid off, however soon after the warrior who was walking following Declan.

He ended up fighting with many enemies, so he lost sight of Declan, who, despite being injured managed to reach the drain.

From where he moved towards his freedom because somehow no one was fighting in that area.
