The Dark Templar

A.K.A. Bill Joseph

Never come back... or I shall find you..." With

that, he brought the blade quickly up and

sheathed his sword. He turned and trotted away

into the darkness, leaving the chest, the slumped

body of Augustus and Theron in the street. It

wasn't until the horseman was long gone, and the

webbing dissipated before Theron noticed the

warm liquid trailing down the side of his face.

He instinctively reached for his cheek and felt a

long, deep gash. He never even felt the cut. He

surveyed the situation. The chest was still there.

But so was the horseman.... Out there.... He

turned and fled from the city of Mordheim, never

to return. "

" Augustus and Theron darted from building to

building, carrying with them a chest that they had

just stolen from the Dark Magister Xzyos. They

had quietly made their way into his private

chambers with the aid of information bartered for

a rather large sum of Gold Crowns, but the profit

they stood to make well outweighed the cost and

the risk of stealing the chest. Everything had

gone as planned, until they heard the jangle of

armour, they heavy footfalls of the war-horse, and

the shrieking metal on stone sound of a sword

being dragged across the ground. They turned

their heads in unison and almost dropped the

chest in fright. Before them sat a man clad in

brass coloured armour with a dark blue tunic

atop his black steed. He held in his arms a

massive, wickedly curved two-handed sword. His

glowing pale blue eyes transfixed on the two

thieves. He kicked his heels into the sides of his

mount and urged it into a leap. The he charged.

Theron and Augustus darted, fear consuming

them, they dropped the chest and sprung for their

lives. The horseman swung his blade out at

Augustus; it hummed with magic as it passed

through flesh and bone, severing his head. The

runes scribed across the blade glowed with a

crimson light where blood had coated the blade.

While Augustus' headless body slumped to the

ground, the horseman reared the horse and

brought it around towards Theron. He held both

blade and his gauntleted fist into the air and

chanted arcane words, bringing both down and

aiming them towards Theron, he completed his

spell. Sticky white webbing flew from his hand,

arcing widely towards Theron, encasing him in the

gluey substance. Theron fell to the floor. The

horseman slowly trotted to him, lowered his blade

even with Theron's throat and spoke in a voice

that would forever haunt Theron's nightmares,

chilling him to the bone, "Abandon this city...
