Editing Campaign:Forged In Fire/Samsu, Silent Blade (section)

=== Background ===
''He was gathering Intelligence for a local crime lord on dock guard rotations when they arrived. They poured in through the east gate. It was as though the Wyld itself had attacked the city. Mutated beastmen, fair folk, and barbarians were overwhelming the town's meager amount of terrestrial exalted. In minutes, there were but 2 left. The dead had taken a large portion of the raiders with them, but there were still enough left to seriously threaten the town. The last fire-aspect man with red hair was decapitated by a Raksha Cataphractoi in one quick motion, and with that, his female companion turned and ran. Yelling and hooting, the dozen left-over raiders poured into the town. Samsu was running away when he saw the boy. He was hiding underneath a stall, shaking with fear. Luckily, the the female Dragon-Blooded was running in the stall's direction, and it was expected she would him help him. But she continued running, leaving the boy to his doom. Glancing quickly from woman to boy, boy to woman, Samsu acted. In one swift motion he unlatched and grabbed her scabbard. He turned to face the raiders bearing down upon the boy.<br/>'''"You shall not hurt a child this night."'''<br/> He unsheathed the daiklaive. Prepared to sacrifice his life for this child, this stranger, the raiders laughed at Samsu - he could barely lift the daiklaive, never mind wield it in combat. <br/>'''"I.. must.."'''<br/> Golden light poured from his forehead, and the sword became light as a feather. Realizing they had a formidable foe in front of them, the raiders attacked, but to no avail. Samsu was a Child of the Sun, and none would stand before him. Felling beastman and fae with stroke after stroke, he became a blur of blade and blood. When he came to the Cataphractoi, he intended to spare it. Samsu's new-found blade lay upon the Raksha's neck. His voice flowed like a great wave crashing upon the earth.<br/>'''Leave this place, and never return.''' <br/> The Raksha did as it was told, and Samsu turned to the boy: <br/> '''Go. Tell the people that the Children of the Sun have returned.'''''
