( right imma the last of the mohicans this one :P)

Upon hearing the news i go to my quarters and toss my knight equipment away and open a chest..In that chest lies the equipment of my older brother.Like me he was a member of the Iktani tribe.The harsh conditions that we were forced to survive in made us some of the worlds best fighters.Until one day when king Jiktrus of Valvarius marshed an army of nearly 10,000 men to our village..At the time i was just 7..i watched as my father and mother fought through some 700 men before being owerhwelmed by the thousands..I remember my older brother telling me to hide in the secret hiding spot that only he and i knew..I watched him fight through some 400 men one at a time until he faced the wicked king.He fought well..but not well enough.With his last dying breath he said"One day..the last Iktani..Will put an end to you and avenge our people..wicked bastard."

And i just watched..and when the king and his remaining henchmen had left i walked out into my destroyed village..tears streaming down my face as i screamd"Mamma!!,Pappa!.."and was only met with silence.I was forced to survive for 2 weeks on my own..Until winter came..THat was when i left my home to go to the nearest water spring.When i found it i drank from the icy cold water..but when i did out of nowhere a bear appeared..I backed off slowly and as it gave chase i ran..but failed to see the nearby slope next to me.I fell down..branches and dirt+ stones scarred my face and body as i was knocked out cold.

When i awoke i was met by the look of a young lamia only one year younger than me.Her family had apperantly nurtured me after having found me off of the slope while they were hiking.The young lamia named "Ethel" and i grew close..to the point we came to love each other.She and her family was from the kingdom of Symphious and thus i was immediatly reckognised as a guest to the kingdom.

It is now years later that after i had combined the training ferom the lamia's pillar with that of my own tribe.That i put on my  brother's native clothing,twin tomahawks,but i leave the rest in the chest for what im about to do.

I go to Jiktrus Throne room(i was allowed to send him a message)and there i meet him.

Me:Wicked king Jiktrus..it is i..the last Iktani..You killed my father,my mother and my brother aswell as my tribe..And now you declare war on the people that have nurtured me since i was 7?.This is unnaceptable..And thus i challenge you to a duel Tommorow.We shall fight to the death,If i win there shall be peace between valvarius and Symphious.

Jiktrus:Very well,but if i win i will have every symphian hanged.

Me:I will not let that happen you fiend..Remember tommorow at dawn.

Jiktrus:oh i won't forget.

Under the night Ethel visits me in my tent.

Ethel:Are you mad?!..You are challenging the king of a nation.And he is no joke..*sniff* please darling..I don't want to lose you..We can run away together and live happily ever after! y'know?*sniff*

Me*pats her head and hugs her*Ethel..If i do that then these people whom i owe my life to will die..I will not let that happen my love..But i assure you..I will not fall against the likes of him.

Ethel Promise me!.

Me:I promise.

Ethel proceeds to cry on my shoulders for a while..Later we sleep together..as we did when we were young.

THe next day i leave my tent and there i see him..Inthe field wearing his battle armor,and as confident as ever.

We meet and begin the fight by circling each other..He attacks,i pary his attack and attempt to contra but he circumvents my defence and im knocked back.I wait and when he attacks i give him a tomahawk to the gut,not an attack strong enough to kill him(cuz of the armor) but it weakens him)We fight for the rest of the day and by nightfall we are panting and exhausted.I give off one final charge and manage to kick him back and fall of his back,i take a running jump and land one of my tomahawks into his skull.The symphious armies celebrate the victory and peace is brokered between Symphious and Valvarius.

Ethel jumps me and gives me a kiss on the mouth and the biggest hug in the world.

Years later i'm living with my Lamia wife Ethel and our two children..

My name is Vadja..the last of the Iktani..and this is my story.
