"You see, son, after the battle, every bit of land and property we owned was taken over by the Wilderness Army. That even included our home. Then, just two days later, you were born in Al Karhid." Luzi continued." "Wait," Leo interupted. "I was born in Al Karhid?" Luzi nodded. "Yes. Our empire was large, and the only safe land left was unfourtunetly south of the Shantay Pass. Your father agreed to keep you safe, and I would go further south. He took you to Falador, where you stayed with a relative for several years. During that time, I was living on my own in the desert. Leo stood up quickly. "You could have sent a card! You could have stopped by!" he fumed. "No, Leopold, I couldn't. Members of the Wilderness Army were and still are guarding the land. It was hard enough getting in here to find you." "Well if it was so hard, then why didn't you just leave me be? You could've stayed in the desert!" Luzi sighed and reached behind her into her bag. Slowly, she pulled out a long runite scimtar. "For you. I bought this with my life savings. I bought it because I knew this day would come." Leo eyed the scimtar suspiciously. "Leopold, its time we took back the Empire. I've already alerted any surviving members of the Rangers to gather the faithful. Leopold, if we can get our empire back, we could become more powerful than the kings! But your father and I, we're aging. You're the one who needs to lead our army into battle, and win us back the legacy we worked so hard to get." Leopold was shocked. So much had been dropped upon him in so little time. He sat down once again, running his hands against the cold runite of the scimtar. "But why me? Father's still healthy." Luzi smiled weakly. "Because, you're the one who needs to take over when we're gone. We won't live forever." Leopold looked up slowly. "But I'm a farmer, moth- Luzi. I can't lead an army. I raise cows and wheat. And nothing else. I sleep in this cabin, bathe in the Lum, and sing to my cows. And thats about it." Luzi chuckled. "If there's one thing I've learned while living in the desert, its confidence. If you're trapped by 9 bandits, you can't give up because 'You're just a weak little farmer.' or 'I'm just a woman.'" "Wait... you took on 9 bandits?" "No... I think there were 15. You know, its hard to tell when their faces are all chopped up like that."

The worm :lol: Either that, or an emote where you get to "grab" the nearest playing and start salsa dancing madly... could be used to distract while PKing. :?

Leopold Herman was quietly shooed the rest of his cows and sheep into their enclosure, tapping them lightly with a walking stick. The sun was just about to set, the last of the travalers on the path to Varrock setting up small camps for the night. Leo walked into his small cabin, and hung his hat up on the wall. With a sigh, he sat down at the table, and cut a chunk off of the crispy loaf of bread sitting on a plate in front of him. Biting into it, he chewed tiredly. Just before finishing his last bite, there came a sharp knock at the door. "Who would come this late?" he thought, getting up from his chair. Opening the door, he was startled to see a woman in desert dress standing before him. "Can I help you?" The woman smiled. "Leopold Herman, I presume. May I come in?" Leo eyed the woman. "Sure... who are you?" The woman frowned. "Daniel that lazy man, I should have known he wouldn't have told you." Leo was taken aback at his father's name. "My name is Luzi. I don't think your father ever mentioned me, but I'm your mother." Leo inhaled sharply. "I believe you're mistaken, my mother died many years ago when I was just a baby." Luzi sighed and turned to face Leopold. "No, Leo, she didn't. That's what your father told you. I am your mother. Me and your father... lost contact when you were an infant." Leopold sat down on the bed. "But you... where have you been? I'm almost 15. You've been gone 15 years, and Father never told me about you." Luzi sat down at the table. "I've been in the desert. I was a nomad, after the disbandment of the Amythist Rangers." Leo's eyes grew wide. "Amythist Rangers? Were you part of the Amythist Rangers?" Luzi nodded. "Your father as well. Leopold, we STARTED the Amythist Rangers. We were the leaders. But the disbandment happened a few days before you were born. The Wilderness Army ambushed us, just outside of a tournament. We lost our entire empire that day, and most of our followers." Leo sat quietly, as his long lost mother continued her story...

My old account, chunky_monkey5 had some problems, this is my new one. :D Chapter 9 Taeia smoothed the folds out of her ceramonial gilded robes, as the roar of the crowd grew louder and louder. As she ascended the steps from under the stage, she took smiled to herself as the chants of thousands of her followers filled her ears. With a wave of her hands, the large stage filled with a fiery stream of light, signalling the crowd to quiet. Taeia went on to recite a speech that had been recited almost 1000 years ago, at her first Gathering. After the speech, the festivities had officaly begun. Performers took the stage, as merchants shouted their wares from their booths. In her private tent under the stage, Taeia practiced reciting the words that would finalize the sacrificial ceramonies, as outside, the sword was sharpened on a large whetstone. Gobe and Arius ran up behind the stage quietly, their plan now in full swing. Arius drew a small ruby wand out from his cloak. Waving it around animatedly, he aimed at the man behind the whetstone. There was a small booming sound, as the man fell to the ground. Arius ran up to the dead man and touched the wand to the corpse's lips, just as Taeia called from the tent "Kibli, is the sword okay? Tell me you didn't hurt the sword!" Arius touched the wand to his owns lips, and spoke with the accent of a man from far north. "Yes, master, the sword is untouched. You need not worry." Arius finished sharpening the sword, and then slipped into Taeia's tent. Gobe waited impatiently for what seemed like hours, until he heard a deep woman's voice. "The time is right... send for the prisoners." That was Gobe's cue. He ran towards the cage where Oad and Shaun sat, chained together. Gobe opened the cage door, and pulled on a loose chain sharply. Oad cursed quietly, as the chains cut into his side. Gobe attempted to sooth him without giving away his identity. Arius stood next to Taeia on the stage, as a huge wave of black hooded people stood cheering before the stand. A large stone altar had been placed in the middle of the stage, right in front of where Taeia stood weilding the sword that Arius had handed to her. Two other hooded attendents took the chain from Gobe, and yanked Shaun and Oad up the stairs. Slowly, they layed the two out on the stone slab, as Taeia began reciting the ancient words. Arius looked back at Gobe, who was turning a pale color. Misty sat next to the stage on a gilded chair, attendend by two women in black cloaks. She was fighting a stronge impulse to run up and strangle Taeia. As Taeia raised the sword in tune with the sacred words, Misty felt her hands grip her chair tighter and tighter. Taeia was practically shouting, as the sword reached its peak height. Misty flung herself from the chair, and bolted up the stairs screaming.

I'm back after having some technical difficulties, and I've needed to make a new account. But anyways, this is chunky_monkey5. GonandGary- What is your problem????? Combat levels DO NOT determine if you're a noob. I bet right now, there are about 100 level 3s who are smart and more mature than you. :notalk:
