True happiness only comes once in a lifetime

Quest Name: Hyrule's Creed of Liberty
Quest Description: Bandits have been taking advantage of the disheveled state of Hyrule, hoping to make a profit. One of the more serious offenses has been kidnapping people on the roads to be either used for ransom, or if unable to do so, sold as property. One of the camps specializing in this practice has been located in the Lanayru region, and Sir Dragelion has been dispatched to take it out and free those held inside. If possible, he has also been tasked with finding information on other bases.

Sir Dragelion has forgone a squad in favor of bringing along an outside party in Ordon's Tionie Green.

Now newly adorned in the garb of a Knight of Hyrule, things felt... Right. But now that the drama of his trial and knighting had ended, and the honeymoon period was over... It was time to get to work. His first major assignment as a Knight, and he had decided to forgo a squad. It was a bold move, one that his higher ups were confused by. But his sense of strategy had worked in the past, and thus they didn't question it all that much. The truth was that Josh couldn't afford to deal with potentially having members of his squad taken hostage, endangering the mission. It was already a delicate matter. These bandits were ruthless, holding people either to be ransomed or sold... And liable to kill them if they couldn't get anything from them. He didn't put it past them to kill their hostages if they were about to be freed.

So he had asked Tionie to join him instead. The archer would be able to help him sneak into the camp and pick off the bandits in order to thin the herd before they made their grand entrance. The two of them were hiding out at the top of a cliff overlooking a large bandit camp, with large log stakes at the tops making climbing over it impossible. They would have to go through the front.

"Any ideas?" The knight inquired in a whisper toward his compatriot. The intention had been to snipe a few of them from a distance, and quietly, and then sneak in... But sneaking in was going to be a lot harder now with the camp's structure.

It had come as a surprise to be invited along for an official mission. This was something the Knights were supposed to be doing after all, and Tionie was just your average citizen. There was nothing particularly special about her other than her sharp wit and her deft precision when it came to the use of a bow. But, she had no reason to refuse this request for her assistance either. With her father now gone, she found balancing time a bit difficult for herself. Where before she was home constantly to tend to her had-been ailing father, not she was free to do as she pleased - at a painful cost, of course.

But, she also had a farm to try and maintain. Affording hands to assist wasn't easy at the moment, all things considered, but occasionally she was able to bring someone on to help so that she could venture out and get away from home. And today had been one of those times most certainly.

Admittedly, Tionie had spent the first half of the trip with Josh playfully teasing him about his new garb. She had picked and playfully danced in and out of swatting distance, just overall being a playful nuisance right up until it was time to be serious. He was really the closest person she had in her life after all, and as of late things kept them busy and time spent around one another had been cut. So, it was only natural for her to get as much of the playful banter out of her system as possible while she had the chance.

But once they were on that hill, Ti had observed the camp with a thoughtful frown. "Honestly?" she started her reply to him, her tone a whisper as well. "I would say to draw them out, but only so many of them would fall for that before someone caught on and took it out on the captured..." This was going to take something much more clever. "Granted, if we can take the guards out at the entrance quickly enough, they won't have time to alert anyone else. But we don't know how many more are inside, or where they're stationed for that matter, and going in blind is not my favorite thing to do."

"I need to be worthy of what I am."

It was a tough situation. One misstep could get a lot of innocent people hurt or worse. But that was why he had brought Tionie. He trusted Tionie, and he knew that if there was anyone who could handle a situation like this with the needed care, it was her. It was likely they'd need to go in blind though, she pointed out. They could take out the guards at the entrance, but beyond that...

"Hmm..."

Josh took a deep breath as he then got up. Pulling out his bow, he motioned for her to string her own. "One on the right" he instructed as he pulled back...

Headshot. The arrow hit the guard on the left, a headshot that killed them on the spot. Provided Tionie was able to hit the one on the right, he'd jump down and rush to the entrance, hoping to get them before anyone noticed. If she hadn't managed to kill them, then he wouldn't hesitate to finish them off the very next second. He didn't like killing other human beings... But this was an exception. It disgusted him, but so did these people.

Hauling one body into a bush, he loaded the other onto Cabuck, who had been on standby nearby. He loosely fit their feet through the straps. "Go hide" he instructed Tionie. With that, he would string his bow once more, aim it up...

... And fired into the camp.

As soon as the arrow fell, he whispered something to Cabuck. The horse didn't hesitate, seeming to understand the instructions as the horse took off as fast as it could. With that, Josh would quickly move to hide. They may just be able to draw out their foes and take a handful of them out of the picture for a little while. It would take some time before they would notice that the rider on the horse was one of their own. And dead. But it was also risky. They'd realize the nature of the ruse as soon as the ruse wore off. But they had no other choice.

An unfortunate end to a quest lost in the shadows. A simple offering of 15 rupees will suffice for your efforts.

PHARAOH LEAP.
