Midnight Paragon
Savior of Dusk
The rain fell slowly and lightly on this moonlit night. It wasn't everyday Admiral Hauster could enjoy himself like this. Usually, his nights consisted of him rolling around in his bed, trying to sleep, but when it rained, he always found himself more....at peace.
The Harraway, Admiral Hauster's ship, rocked gently in the port. The good Admiral had docked into the port city of Gretingshan a couple of hours ago, and told his men to have the night off, which they graciously accepted. As far as he knew, he was all alone on the ship now. He sighed and thought back to why he was out here in the first place. The King had said Pirate attacks had been getting more and more aggressive lately, which he had to agree with. Gretingshan was just one of many port towns that had to deal with him. He was told to try and track down the biggest Pirate he could find and bring them in; for what reason he wasn't told. He shook his head, for it seems to him mostly pointless. The Pirates, while all scoundrels, weren't stupid. If a big Pirate were to fall, another would take his place. Still, he had to believe in the King. Without belief, the nation of Katharsis would have fallen long ago. He fixed his hat and, with one last sigh, retreated back into his cabin.
