Description
Standing in a distance is a strikingly beautiful woman graced with
wavy silky black hair. As the eyes adjust to her radiant physique,
a perfect hour-glass figure reveal itself. Her hair is soft, wavy and
silky on touch. Her beautiful blue eyes have more depth than the
deepest ocean under her beautiful curved dark eyebrows. Her beaks
are shiny ruby red as if they are painted. Her face is radiant and soft,
but it shows signs of aging and maturity.
Looking at her chest, a beautiful sight capturing all attention to the
rhythmically of her breath. Her shoulders as her long beautiful legs
are perfect leading up to her beautiful long neck. The flat feathered
belly has the smoothness and softness of a rose petal.
Her long feathered legs are proportional and perfectly toned. Her hips
are far beautiful and enticing. Her feet are as beautiful as an adept
dancer. Her body that if full of soft silky hair is so beautiful that there
is hardly any word to describe it. The creator must have taken time to
sculpt her. With her wings spread, she looks more like an angel with
only the halo missing. She seems to be smiling at you with small
pearly white teeth showing.

While sitting at the altar in the Island, Mutsu saw a bright-orange
bird watching her movements. The bird flew towards Mutsu, and
then vanished in thin air but not before dropping a letter in Mutsus
hands. The letter was sealed with Chiefs signature
Mutsu Spiritclaw,
Read carefully as this is the actual truth of your pathetic life.
I used to work in the Arial City Assassin Guild as a Sensei of martial
arts to the royal family. While working there, I was approached by
a Sensei. His bet was if I can take a girl from the street and make
her into my best student. Pass her as a daughter of a noble and then
wed her in the royal family. She will be the best assassin/spy for
the guild. It took me few months just to choose a perfect candidate.
I chose 5 candidates. Somehow all of them died from a deadly poison,
except your mother.
I started to train your mother in the art of the assassins. My royal
assistants taught her etiquettes of talking, eating and walking. I
started to fall in love with her. She recognized my feelings for her
and came to my bed. Maybe it was her way of thanking me.
We chose a fine young merchant, who was also a member of the royal
family. We laid out an entire plan for her to entice him. But they
both fell in love. When they got married, she was carrying my baby.
But then she had a miscarriage. I know she didnt do that on purpose,
but still that was the last straw. Your mother betrayed me by falling in
love with another man and got rid of our love child.
It was then when I made plans to ruin the life of your family. I started
a whole group of assassins working together for the bounty office. The
survival rate increased when all of us worked together. But my assassins
did few too many assassinations and attracted the attention of the law.
So we started moving. But if disguised ourselves as entertainers, it will
be hard for anyone to recognize us.
That was when the Deadly Entertainers was born.
After running around Thera for 10 years, we returned to Arial City. I went
to the Bounty Office in Udgaard and placed a huge amount of money on
your mother. In Arial City, I sent one of my assassins to check the bounty
list. Your mothers name was on top. Her head was worth around 1000 gold.
I devised a plan. It was simple. Overwhelm your mother and make a lot
of noise to wake your father. We wanted him to see his wife die in front of
his eyes. We thought he will raise the alarm. We just wanted to kill your
mother, but he just stood their in disbelief. To protect our identity, we killed
your father. Couple of my assassins felt some mercy for you and brought
you back with us.
To cover our backs, we came us with a fake name for a secret society. We
trained you in our ways. You started to excel and with societys name, it fuel
your anger. I started to use this knowledge for my own benefit. I was using
it to make you do stuff for me. You killed few people that I wanted dead, but
didnt want them to find out I asked for it. I would just point at them and say
that they might be in the society.
I forgot to mention that when you receive this letter I will already be dead
and Deadly Entertainers will be disbanded. Tracking them will take a lifetime.
So now you know the

After laying waste to Yudran, a villager, Mutsu saw a pitch-black
bird watching her movements. The bird flew towards Mutsu, and
then vanished in thin air but not before dropping a letter in Mutsus
hands. The letter was sealed with Chiefs signature
Mutsu Annie Yelllowdancer,
This letter will crumble into dust once you done reading it, so read
carefully.
Since you joined the Island of the Nexans, you have lost your vision.
You lost your objective to locate the people responsible for the death
of your parents. We both know that most of these people are from
the village. We both know that they are more treacherous than they
look or try to preach.
The moment these villagers hear the words mage or warlock, their
blood seems to boil and they go in a frenzy. You need to kill the
big people of the village to make any difference. Your way to kill
these villager is working fine, but you are not there to earn their respect.
Also, think of different groups around Thera and try to analyze if
they might have used their weapons on your parents. I am saying
this because by now you know them.
Scions - They have warlocks of their own
Law People - They do not seem to have problems with law biding
people
Empire - They do not have problems with warlocks or law biding
people
Nature People - Those are tree-huggers. Other than burning towns,
they dont meddle with other peoples business.
Island - All they care is the balance. You have done than on many
occasions
Fortress - They dislike anyone who does not walk in the light.
Village - These are the only people who hate laws of mortal and magic.
These villagers seem to be the only people who might have harmed
your parents. Honorable battles are fine, but remember these people
didnt use honor towards your parents.
This might be my last letter as I am dying. I will try to write a letter
to you before I die. I wish I could see you, my daughter. But remember
always to use your head before you jump in the fray of battle. Many
people will taunt you to fight you, but as an Islander you need to watch
the equilibrium.

Congratulation

It has been more than a year that Mutsu have received a letter from Chief.
One day Mutsu was walking around the Ashes of Nowhere when she saw
a white paper sticking out from the ashes. She grabbed the letter and of
course it was from Chief. It looked like someone who was in a hurry has
dropped the letter on the ground.
Mutsu,
I do not have to warn you about reading carefully as this letter will
disintegrate itself. I am pretty sure you have experienced it by now.
I know you have been waiting patiently for this letter from me. But you
have to realize that one of these days these letters will end as you grow
older. These letters are merely a guide towards your successful life.
Do not expect to receive a letter from me every couple of years. My
position within the society has been increased. The promotion that was
long time coming. So, now I have more responsibility to attend to. I
should congratulate you on reaching your 30th birthday as many in your
profession die early on. You seem to be rising steadily in your guild,
which should be a good thing. Your guildmaster have been heard talking
about the potential in you. I feel that it is a good thing.
How is your skill in striking down the foe in one single motion? I heard
that after failing around 10 times and not being able to learn from your
mistakes even once has made you disheartened. Try few more times; I
assure you that you will learn a lot. You have to realize that it was you
who learnt and have become a mistress of many skills.
When the news of you laying waste to Mcgrok reached my ears, I was
ecstatic. He was indeed a part of the society. He was one of those people
who will strike just because they can see you. His race as a duergar
provided him with the ability to see in the shadows. Then he joined the
Village of Battleragers. He became so bad that he would attack people
for no cause and run if someone stood for themselves. He would rather
strike any who are weak and run from any who is strong. I am pretty
sure you have witnessed his cowardice.
I am happy that you found home with the Seekers of Balance. These
are good people. Before they attack they consider every aspect as their
action might result in something bad. They are very friendly with mages.
If you search your memory, you will remember that your parents were
blamed to be warlocks. So, these seekers must not be involved in the
assassination or even the society. So, your secret is pretty much safe there.
I also heard that you are no longer the Willing Slave of the Nightborn.
I am surprised that the Nightborn let you go without any punishment.
She must be in a very good mood when she let you leave. Maybe you
didnt have the motivation to join her court. I knew of her court, but
didnt know that you have to be of the dark side to join.
Remember to watch for the gods, they can be the tricky one. There are
few more society members walking around, lay waste to them and your
revenge will be final. The best way to identify them is their unique ways
of talking and awful way of fighting.

First Clue

One day Mutsu was killing the snow worm in the Frigid Wastelands
to figure out how tough the worm is for the future. He barely made
it as none of his abilities worked on the worm. He had a tough time
with that. But once he killed the worm, he found a letter magically
appeared in his hands. Surely it was the letter from Chief as it had
his seal on the back.
Mutsu,
Read this letter carefully as it will disintegrate in dust once you are done.
I heard you have been gaining with people, which is a good thing.
But you cannot trust them all as many times they care more for
themselves than anything else. I also heard that you have been
hell-bent to master all the skills you use in your daily life. These
skills will help you to a certain degree (once mastered) but after
that you need LUCK and favor of the Gods. Do not think that
you can walk your life if you did not have the favor of the gods.
They are powerful and make many impressions on your life. I
ascertain you that you need them in your life. To improve your
luck, maybe you have to offer them a sacrifice.
I also heard that you have been thinking and often talked to others
about joining the Nexans. They seem to be a good bunch of people.
They mainly care for true balance in almost all aspects of life than
anything else. I do not think they are anyways involved in your
parents death. But in other words they are often opportunist. To
join them might lead to your benefit. But before you join, ask your
Mistress as she has the ultimate sway on your decisions. Maybe
scribe a scroll to her and seek her at her shrine and see what she says.
It came to my ears that you tried to assassinate few times but fail
miserably. You have been provided with few sets of skills that should
be used for a perfect assassination. You have to take the best measure
and all cautions before you can assassinate someone. Few people
have mentioned your ability to take blows. That ability to become the
Mistress of Ukemi helped you out immensely. Many have gotten a
glimpse of your shadow in many different parts of Thera. As it might
seem good as you are becoming to explore more places, but try to
make your shadow and your self one. As an assassin, you need to be
in the shadows and never be seen.
I am not providing you with the name of the people for you to
assassinate as you need to become adept in it before you get to
bigger marks. But in the mean time, do what you must to please
your Mistress. Gain titles and gain friends. Soon you will be
receiving a list of people I think are involved with the Society.
First Clue: The name of the Shadow Society is "HashiFah"
The name means the Shadowy Group.

Mutsu was sitting next to Olin and wondering why she hasnt received
the letter from C. She thought maybe C has abandoned her or
merely forgot about her. Out of nowhere she saw a small magical
mushroom grow in size near the bar. After few minutes, the mushroom
blew up in a puff of smoke leaving a letter. It contained the seal of C
with some artistic inscriptions on the back. The letter said:
Mutsu,
Read this letter carefully as it will crumble itself shortly afterwards.
I am sorry about not writing to you sooner. I know you were expecting
a letter on your birthday, but I got busy with some work.
I heard that you became a willing slave of the Nightborn. Even though
it is good news, you should be serving the Nightborn from behind the
picture. So no one knows who the driving force of all your motives is.
I would send a letter to the Nightborn and would request to her that if she
titled you differently, you would not draw too much attention. Once you
gain access to the Court of the Nightborn, many things will be revealed to
you. It would not take long for you to gain knowledge of the identity of
the Society. Keep your blade sharp, soon I will be sending you the list of
people who are somehow related with the Society.
Your guildmaster sent me a report about you. He is one of my good friends.
He has been discussing your progress with many people that include your
banker and the shopkeepers. He mention in the report that you have pleased
him immensely. Good thing is that you have realized that if you somehow
fail in the assassination attempt, you can still save your hide (and in your
case feathers).
I also heard that you killed a paladin and offered his corpse to the Nightborn.
Well done. I personally do not like those Paladins. Most of them,
95 out of 100 of them, talk of a big game. They talk of serving the Light.
But they act as those leeches of the swamp. They always travel in packs
and try to kill you with the help of others. And if you are chasing them, they
run and hide behind their guild-guards. They mostly preach of honorable
combat while they cant even practice that. I heard about that paladin who
sat in his Hamsah guild and talked about praying to his deity about you.
And he will complain to his deity about you, and his deity will bless him
with more powers. If I was one of the Gods, I would kick him in the ribs
and tell him to prove to me that you are worth the blessings. I would not
waste my precious time on him.
As per the reports I have received, you are doing well. Continue doing
what you are doing. Gain titles so you can harm other who have gained
more prowess, and so you can also slice people with the stroke of your hand.
Please the Nightborn with more blood and bodies so you can gain access to
her Court.

Mutsu was down in Cragstone to make some money for
her expenditure when she found a letter held by a thief. She asked
him to see that letter; surely it contained the seal of Chief. When
she asked the thief to sell her the letter, he wouldnt agree. So
she beat him to submission and took the letter from him. The thief
looked at Mutsu and said that Chief is right, she is indeed becoming
strong.
Mutsu,
Carefully read as this letter as it will crumble shortly after
you are done reading it.
I was pleased when my informants told me you got in touch with
Lady Eshval. If she hasnt killed you till now, that means you hold
her interest. This can be a very good thing. Ask her if she will allow
you to join her Court. Her Dark Court will reveal many secrets you
wish to learn.
It seems to me that you now a Master of Ukemi which is a good thing.
By practicing the skills of Ukemi, you will learn how to fight few
people at the same time. Ukemi also allows you to increase your
prowess in defensive stance.
I also heard that you lay waste to a Paladin of the Jaguar. I heard
about the incident. Please correct me if I heard anything wrong
about the incident. The paladin ran around trying to hit the imperial
warrior, but resulted in getting his friend elf killed. Then he accused
you of not helping his elf friend. This made you furious and told him
to go repent his sins. He would not stop accusing you. He talked of a
whole game but he would not show it by action. He had a big mouth
and all he did was accuse you of wrong doing and he tried to make
himself look like a saint. At which point you tried to strangle him,
so he can reflect on his action while strangled. But you failed in your
attempt and which resulted in his demise. And you honorably did not
take anything from his corpse not even coins. You should master your
strangling skills before you attempt it again.
I also heard that by offering his corpse to the Nightborn Queen, you
made her happy. Didnt you find the egg for the Imp? If you did find
the egg, hopefully you did not result in accepting any material gifts.
Material things can be found in the corpses of your enemies. The Imp
has been around for longer than you can imagine and also knows secrets of all.
His favor might come in handy one day.
You are indeed doing well.

Parents

While sitting at the Fire in the Eternal Inn, Mutsu saw the shadows move.
She became very attentive and peered in the shadows. After some time
everything went back to normal. When Mutsu was looking for some food,
she saw a unique letter in her bag. She walked away from everybody and
opened the letter. The letter was from Chief.
Mutsu,
Read this letter carefully as it will destroy itself after sometime.
I know you have been expecting a letter on your 21st birthday, but you
have to realize that security has been upped here, so passing a letter to
you is almost impossible. And also I sent a letter to you when you turned
20, so technically I do not have to send you a letter till you are 22. But as
I am nice, I decided to send you one and disclose one of the major facts
about your parents.
To justify themselves to the society, the council framed your parents for
witchcraft, especially your father.
When you mother was young, she worked as an assassin for the Society.
You father was a very well-off weapon merchant who was often suspected
to be corrupt and also provided information to others about us. He provided
weapons to us. When your mother was recruited, your father was her
only assigned target.
Your mother posed as a maiden in distress situation where we assaulted
her and your father rescued her. After the rescue, she feigned memory loss.
After 3 months, your parents got married. For the next 8 years, your
mother provided us with critical information about your fathers business.
When you were born, your mother cut all ties to the Society. She also
informed your father that she worked for the Society and was providing
information about him. She also told him that she has fallen in love with
him and she will do anything to prove her love for him. She then started
gathering sensitive information about the Society for your father. Your
father started on a crusade to reveal the true identity of the Society to all
Thera. After 1 year, your mothers intentions were revealed to the Society.
They did not take it well.
There was some political unrest in Thera which had some affect on the
Council. Once the members were back in seats, three members conjured
a story about your father using some very dangerous magic.
The Art of Necromancy is a very specialized forbidden art in which dead
bodies and body parts are used to raise an army of undead minions using
magic. The use of this forbidden magic with carelessness infuriated few
of the members.
The council convened and came to a decision that your father is posing
as a threat. So before he raises an army of undead minions and order
them to decimate the Society, they should order his assassination.
If your mother was not taken care of, she will pose as the biggest threat
after your fathers assassination. So, when the order came in, I cried.
Your mother was not only my best student; she was also my lover for
sometime.
I think your mom knew that they will be assassinated as she did not
ever put up a fight when we broke into the house. She walked up to me
and asked me train you in the Art of Assassins and also to assassinate
her first as she cannot see her love dying in front of her.
Letter to Self
Added Mon Jun 4 13:31:08 2007 at level 51:
Dearest,
I write this letter to myself. I will recount my life and
see where it leads to. I considered Chief my only friend
and my mentor for the longest time; but after his betrayal,
I felt lonely. As if I was living a lie. The only truth I see
now is the Island. After joining the Island, I made few
friends. These friends and the goals of the Island have
brought enough enthusiasm in me to live my life to the fullest.
Since very young age, I have always entertained myself
with mastering the craft of the assassins. Now it is coming
in handy. My perfection is showing itself when I fight others.
The old hag, Sokde, fell to my mastered skill in performing
the art of Owaza. For achieving perfection, I should be
thankful to Chief, at least he gave a good advice.
Even after discovering my name is Mutsu Spiritclaw,
I would remain Mutsu Annie Yelllowdancer. As no one
knows me as Spiritclaw, I will retain with my old full name.
Geren, Marastron and Shooloo are very good friend.
They give me advice as how to improve my life and help
improve the life of others around me. A Divine, Lord Twist
the God of Magic, has invoked an interest in my heart.
Because I am a Keeper of Equilibrium, I am usually in odds
with the villager. These villagers are defilers of magic and
are after the destruction of magic. The mortal enemies of Magic.
These are the main opponents I have been fighting.
Even though I a follower of the passion path, I am in love with
the path of Magic. I even scribed the God of Magic with a scroll.
I explained to him about my passion towards Magic and I also love
his passion towards Magic too. I mentioned to him that I would
like to be blessed and trained by him to become the
Mutsu Annie Yelllowdancer the Shield of Magic.
I think I have enough qualifications and training that I can excel
under him maybe enough to wear his brand. But we all know
the Divines; they make their moves when they feel that the time
is appropriate. And I wait for such time.
In the meantime, I am known in whole Thera with my full name
and that makes me very happy. I feel like I am getting recognized
for my efforts.

While traveling through the Holy Grove, Mutsu saw an eagle eyeing her.
So she stopped under the tree the eagle was perched. The eagle came
near her and crumbled to dust. In the middle of the dust, there was a
letter addressed to Mutsu Annie Yelllowdancer. The seal on the back
resembled C. Mutsu broke the seal and opened the letter.
Mutsu,
Read this letter carefully as it will crumble itself after a short time.
My spies told me that you attacked an orc in the city of Galadon.
Yes, I understand that you care very little for the law and you are trying
to impress the Nightborn, but if a Tribunal Magistrate saw you doing that,
they will immediately place a Wanted flag on you. This will draw
unwanted attention to you. If you plan to attack in town, make sure you
do it at a time when no one can see you or hear you do that.
I also heard that you havent gathered a small party with anyone to gain
more titles within your guild. You have to realize that gathering party
will help you gain titles faster and impress your guildmaster. Your
guildmaster in turn will teach you new and better modified skills towards
your path to be one of the best Assassins. To accomplish gathering of a
party, you will have to be nice to people. At times you have to help people
to be invited to a party or adventure. I know how much you like to be alone,
but you have to realize that it is for the better good.
Now, you should run along and make yourself stronger.

She immediately knew that the letter must be from Chief.
No one knows who she is or even her full name.
And yes, the letter was from Chief.
Mutsu,
Read the letter carefully. Once done destroy it as I do not want
the society to find out about me.
You have a reached a very critical age in your study. At this age,
you have to decide who you will follow or even what religion.
My suggestion will be to follow the path of Passion. I hope that
one of the passions of your life is to find the true identity of the society.
I would advise you to find Lady Eshval the Queen of the Nightbornss
shrine. Pray to her sometime, maybe she can expedite the process.
I pray that she accepts you as one of her followers. I have heard that
she loves blood. She is often seen munching on the bodies of young
babies. Maybe to please her you have to present her with few corpses.
Also, do not associate yourself with any groups of Thera. Right now
your main goal is find more and more information and train in the art
of the Assassins.
Good Luck.

She was personally trained by Chief in the art of wisdom. Every couple
of years, she found little information about the society. At the age of 19,
she left the caravan to go train with the Assassin Guild of Galadon.
Before she left, Chief mentioned to her to watch her back. The society
doesnt like well-trained assassins leaving the caravan. Few leaders of
Thera are the resident members of the society. These members often
had minions who protected them and carried out their orders. After few
revelations about the identity, she has to slay some of these minions to
get to the members.
Very few people know her true identity, so she needs to safeguard that.
To find information from all sources, she does not have to care of light
or darkness. She should not care for being a law biding citizen as she
should not stay in one place for long.

A caravan of entertainers often passed through villages. To the world,
they were the perfect group of dancers and jugglers, but in reality they
were a group of assassins on a mission. They did the bidding for a
very secretive unknown group. Only the Chief had some information
about the secretive society.
When Mutsu was 6yrs old, her parents were death marked by the band.
Mutsu has vague memories of going to sleep the night her parents
were assassinated, but does remember waking up in the midst of band.
When she asked what has happened to her parents, she was informed
that they were assassinated. The band took care of her. After couple
of years, she started learning the art of assassination and martial arts
and the act of disappearing. During her training she discovered that one
of her mentors was involved in the assassination of her parents.
She confronted the Chief as to why she was left alone when her parents
were assassinated. The Chief mentioned that they only assassinate the
mark. This way they do not draw attention to themselves. She asked
Chief to tell her the identity of the members of this very secretive unknown
group are. Chief promised her that she will find out about them over the
span of her life, but Chief can train her to detect them. Chief mentioned
that he cannot reveal the full identity right now because then the Society
will Death Mark the Chief. Chief mention that from now on she will be
known as Mutsu Annie Yelllowdancer.
