《Rise of the Henchman》Chapter 20: A Fathers Grief
Advertisement
“Before I train you on information gathering, you should watch the news. The police found Johnny and his friends.” Stated Seel.
Following her instruction I turn my attention to the nearby t.v. and watched it as the news had the breaking news logo on and had under it the title “Falcon’s Son Murdered” and had two analysts in a heated conversation.
“Someone is trying to take down the heroes and they are going after their families first!”
“No, we can’t go there, the cops found booze and drugs at the scene. Furthermore, there has been word of a sixth person in their group that has not been found yet.”
“And she got close to John and killed him. They are an agent to bring down the heroes.”
“I just said they had booze and drugs scattered around, they easily could have angered their dealer and he killed them. And what are you getting at by saying the heroes are targets?”
“Come on, after the Phanuel travesty, people have been in an uproar and terrorist groups are sprouting left and right.”
“Stop spouting nonsense, there is no proof of anything you're saying.”
“We interrupt this program to bring you live to The Falcon’s news conference.”
“Yesterday night I learned of my son’s death. He was a bright boy with a great curiosity.” The Falcon is standing stoically, making sure his words are clear as he continues, “My son wasn’t perfect but he was still mine. I raised him from a baby to a man and even though he stumbled he was still supported. I still love him and I knew that my bright little boy could come back and shine brightly but this tragedy has ended his potential. Someone took him away from me. He took away his opportunity to change. He took away the most precious of all things, his future.”

The falcon looked coldly at the camera. Killing intent permeated the air. He then slowly said, “The person responsible… WILL PAY DEARLY.”
Hurrah, my first nemesis.

The Gray God
This is the sequel to The Gray Mage, however, reading it is not required to understand this story. Three centuries after the god Rynovar claimed Earth as his own domain, ending the Fourth Age of Magic, he ruled the world from a floating continent. Deciding to allow humans a chance at having a wished granted or a question answered, Rynovar created a quest fifty years into his reign. Upon completing the quest, those who undertook it would be granted an audience with him and permission to make a single request or ask a single question. However, two and a half centuries after he issued the quest, none had succeeded and the quest was believed impossible, several stages of it having never before been completed. When nineteen-year-old Cyrus met Lyda at a restaurant, he broke the norm of his life cleaning up his brothers' messes and keeping them behaving to avoid causing issues for the public. Upon hearing her desire to earn enough money to attempt Rynovar's quest, Cyrus chose to help her complete what was believed to be one of the quests' impossible stages, revealing that he himself had a question for the god he wanted answered...
