The path of the north (II)

Chapter 1

The air was cold and Dorin trembled under the fine clothes and the leather breastplate, his only protection. John insisted that in front of a beast, not even the strongest armor would serve, it was better to be light and agile.

The hut in which they lived was on top of the Orgol Valley, surrounded by vast mountains and small and scattered villages. Autumn was approaching and the dry cold and the withered leaves were proof of that. He remembered the first time he had stepped into the valley, so long ago...

- Are you ready, Dorin?- his master's voice cut his thoughts.

- Yes, sir. I have the knife and the crossbow ready.

- Okey, I am taking the bag of ointmenst and medicines.- John agreed while throwing the bag over his shoulder.
  
Byron, the John´s horse neighed nervously and bit the rope that held him.


-Not today, friend, you would only delay us. Come on, Dorin. Today begins your new life.
