The Watchman

***Caution. This story contains strong language and scenes of a violent and sexual nature***
A journey begins with one simple step. But some journeys are laid out even before we enter the world. Deadwood is on one such journey.
The world is not in turmoil, it hasn’t been for centuries but an ancient power is rising in the far distant lands known as the Shifting's that will change all that. This ancient and raw power is but one man; Barnabas, known to his followers as the Wretch King.
Deadwood is one such follower.
Deadwood the Watchman, as he is known in Ritash is a guardian of the peace. A lawman some might call him, others murderer. But either way Deadwood is one of the best Watchmen Ritash has ever seen.
The Wretch King however, is weak. His old frame is rotten and his heart pumps dry blood. For him to be hole again, for him to be as he was over six hundred years ago he needs the help of ancient Magick. Magick that has too, become rotten and twisted.
Six Orbs are all that stand in the way of Barnabas and total glory and it is these six orbs that Deadwood has been sent to find. Finding them won’t be too difficult, controlling them will be.
Arda, Grendle, Petra, Varula, Serta and Dalia are their names and they are all pure evil. Bitches that want souls and care not how they get them. If it means men, women and children must walk the Green Path to meet the Healer than so be it, for they need souls for their survival. They need souls so they don’t take your own.
Spread across the lands the Orbs are, their magick, their will, lost to only but a few that remember.
So join Deadwood I tells ya and join him well on his path to martyrdom and see through the eyes of a confused soul……
